Hey Future Producers!

I'm Doomstrange and I make house. I was wondering where to start when it comes to performing live sets. I'm pretty new to the music game (three months new to be exact), and I have pretty much no idea where to begin collecting hardware and software. Keep in mind that I'm not exactly rolling in cash, so if you're going to recommend I buy something, make sure it's not too expensive!

Right now I use Fruity Loops 10.

Thanks for your help!
