Greetings everyone.
I will try to help out people who want to get started or are looking for different software / service's to use for DJing in 3DXChat. I will try keep this short and sweet (trying to keep it simple too) or I could go on forever!
There are many different products you can use to get the job done so I will only list some of the very popular options below.
DJ Software
Rekordbox
Serato
Virtual DJ
Traktor
Mixxx
The DJ software is what will play your music on your computer, you can play the music directly in the software or you can plug in a controller to play. The bottom option (Mixxx) is freeware and will not cost you anything to use, the more powerful software with more features will require you to pay to use them (Virtual DJ is also completely free for personal use). A good starting point for anybody looking to DJ would be to pick up Mixxx as it is free and let's you mix your music using it's various features. Then if you're looking to go a step further again you can look at the paid software, they all work pretty similar but with minor differences between them, you can pick up free trials to test them out before buying on their respective websites. Go ahead and try them out, find the one you prefer before spending your money!
Streaming Service's
Streamerr
MyRadioStream
Listen2MyRadio
Setting up your streaming service will be the next step you need to take after you have your DJ software. Above are a few of the most popular services to use, they supply free servers that you could test with and have some fun but the more slots for people to listen at the same time and the higher quality of stream comes with a price. Personally I have been using Streamerr's Pro option for the past 9 years and I have not had a single problem with it, they offer an amazingly high quality service (but that's just my opinion). At the end of the day you only need to pay for what you need. Once you have your server set up you will then need to connect your DJ software to it and then use the link your server will provide you and paste it into 3DXChat. With everything hooked up correctly you should be ready to go, start playing that music to your hearts content and most importantly, have fun!
If anybody has any further questions with anything then feel free to ask, I will try my best to help you out.
