DJ Booths are items in The Sims: House Party, The Sims 2: Nightlife, The Sims 2: FreeTime, andThe Sims 3: Showtime.

The Sims
The Turntablitz DJ Booth was introduced in House Party, and costs §7129. It can be placed on residential lots or on community lots in any sub-neighborhoods that are present. If Hot Date is also installed, a booth placed on a community lot will spawn an NPC DJ. ("DJ Z-Buffer", a reference to one aspect of object graphics in The Sims). Sims can "Request" that the the DJ play another radio station.

If placed on a residential lot, a booth can be used as a stereo, but will have extra stations that are not available on ordinary stereos. The player will also be able to direct a Sim to be the DJ.

The DJ booth has a Fun rating of 8, and a Room rating of 3.

The Sims 2
In Nightlife, a neighborhood will have three NPC DJs, and a booth placed on a community lot will use one of them. The player can direct a Sim to be the DJ, and the Sim will earn simoleons while working at the booth. Also, Sims may have a want to work as the DJ.

If the booth is on a residential lot, it will generally function as a stereo, but a Sim will be able to "Be the DJ", which will build creativity. According to the Prima guide for Nightlife, the "House Mix" option will pull MP3s from the Music folder of the player's computer.

On both community and residential lots, other Sims can ask the DJ to change the type of music playing. Unlike The Sims, the DJ booth cannot play any radio stations. There are four options to choose from: "Slow", "Medium", "Fast", and "House Mix". A Sim who is a DJ can also be directly instructed by the player to change stations.

FreeTime added another DJ Booth which can be used for dance competitions. However, the DJ Booth from Nightlife cannot be used for dance competitions, even if FreeTime is installed.

The Sims 3
The DJ Booth returns in The Sims 3: Showtime. Sims will also gain DJ skills from manning the DJ booth. Sims can play four genres from a DJ booth: Dubstep, Drum 'n Bass, Funk, and Niche. Skilled DJs can also hand out Track Mixes similar to albums. There are also opportunities for skilled DJs to perform gigs at venues. If placed on a community lot, it will not spawn an NPC DJ, but a Sim can become one.

Old School DJ Booth
"It's a little musty and tad a bit crusty, but it remains intact to lay down a track. Its character's true, which is apparent to you, and though others may doubt, they'll soon scream and shout. So hop on up and take it for a spin, 'cause this old baby has sweet tunes within."

AmpliFLY DJ Booth
"When you're starving for some mouthwatering melodies, this booth is the place to belly up to some beats. Dish yourself up some rich rhythms with a piping hot side of bass. Once you've sampled these delectable descants, everything else your ears will taste is ash."

Freestyle DJ Booth
"Take advantage of your music mixing aptitude with this new piece of tech that will surely coddle the crudest of crowds. With Mixers and Midi’s, Sound Cards and Synthesizers, you’ll surely deliver a sound that will make any listener’s head spin."
