    Hi Dee,

    The more channels there are on a mixer the more inputs you can play through it. So a 2 channel mixer will be able to hook up to a maximum of 2 turntables. As your DJ skills advance you may want to add a 3rd and 4th turntable to your mixes in which case you will need a mixer with more channels. Many DJs use a channel on the mixer to incorperate their library of tunes and samples from their laptop into their mix, using DJing software such as Ableton Live.

    2 channel means there are 2 channels for a music source input (i.e. ipod turntable CDJ etc.) and on and on. it depends on what you need if you are just using two turntables or cdjs i would recomend a 2 channel.
