Newbie Bedroom Dj/producer Question Options

[puma]

I'm new to the site and have been learning a tremendous amount of info from all of you so far. Thank you!

I've just embarked on setting up a home studio in which I will be able to mix both vinyl and digital files. While I have purchased some good MkIII's, a mixer and monitors, I have not purchased the hardware/software need for mixing my digital files.

I have been a PC user for about 10 years and do not consider myself to be too much of a techie. So....I guess what I'm saying is that I don't want to get in too far over my head when it comes to the hardware/software side.

My interests lie in mixing house, prog & tech house, and funky and tribal trance...and creating my own music through software. So...with that being said, what should I consider as viable options to complete my set-up? I'd like to invest in something that isn't too limited and will allow me to grow, but not too advanced at the same time. I guess I'd like to set a budget of around $2500 or less. Is that doable? Thanks in advance for all of your suggestions!
