Vinyl DJ Gig Essentials:

Vinyl Records: Make sure you have a diverse selection that covers the genres you'll be playing.

Turntables: Double-check that your turntables are in good working condition, with properly calibrated tonearms and cartridges.

Mixer: Ensure your mixer has phono inputs for your turntables and all necessary cables.

Needles/Cartridges: Bring extra needles or cartridges in case of damage or malfunctions.

Slipmats: These provide a smooth surface for your records to spin on and help with scratching.

Headphones: A good pair of DJ headphones is essential for cueing tracks and beatmatching.

Record Bag/Case: Keep your vinyl organized and protected during transportation.

Cleaning Supplies: Antistatic brushes, cleaning solution, and microfiber cloths to keep your records and equipment clean.

Cables: RCA cables to connect your turntables to the mixer, as well as any other cables you may need (e.g., power cables, audio cables).
