    Thankyou to all your suggestions!
    I’m writing to inform you that finally i bought the following:

    1x Pioneer DDJ RX.
    1x Reloop RP 7000 (Black).

    Io hope to have good feeling with my first controller ever.
    I finally choose the DDJ RX instead of XDJ RX because i thought that if a wanted to change and try new things the perfomance pad and the sampler (with sequencer) of the DDJ RX are more suitable for this. So i lunch myself in this new world, even if i also bought a new turntable because i cannot tear away myself from vinyls.

    So lets start this new adventure!

    Thank you for the answers.

    I understand your logic about buying something used and low budget and then upgrade with something more professional after some experience. However i’m not really this type of person. I already done this path one time and finally i spent more money then if i immediately went to professional equipments. Moreover i djing for over 15 years, even if controllers it is something new to me i want something that is interesting to study and challenging to learn. However i also understand that buy an DDJ RZ without any experience in controllers word could be not the right choice. Probably i will go with the DDJ RX to give it a try and then, maybe after 2-3 years i will upgrade to something more.

    Considering the software, i know that go with rekordbox is not the smartest decision, however for me it is very appealing the idea to mantain my compatibility of the analyzed songs also on the other PIONEER gears. However another good option could be the DDJ SX2 that is compatible with both, rekordbox and Serato.

    Finally the XDJ RX is more attractive in comparison with the DDJ series, because resemble more a standard cdj + mixer options. However i really want to explore the new possibilities offered by the controllers so i think i will go for one of these (a controller) also because i already have a MAC Book Pro that is able to run the software.

    But as always, any suggestion will be taken into account.

    Thank you all for the suggestion… The problem is that on one side the XDJ RX represent the “logical” upgrade of my old consolle composed only by vinyls, because basically it resemble the standard way o mixing with some special functions added.

    On the other side the DDJ RX (or RZ) open the word to the new way of controllerism and have also a real mixer inside.

    I’m really struggling into this decision. Sadly here in my city i cant try neither the XDJ or DDJ stuffs and moreover i cant also see the instrument “live” because no one shop have them.

    Some suggestion maybe by people that own the XDJ RX or the DDJ RX could be appreciated :D!
