This worked well for about 6 months (only used it about 10 times) but then it simply stopped passing audio through (appears to work outside of that). I have been trying to open a case (their site can't seem to allow me to open a case online) or chat with someone (it gives some note that if someone is available the chat icon will appear, but it does not appear) - no email option. I can only post my frustrations here - happy to update this posting if someone helps me.

I think this small DJ set up is really all anyone needs it’s portable you can pick it up and take it on the go all you’ll get some practice in at lunchtime something small that doesn’t take up a lot of room hooks up to iPads and Max or windows a good Buy.

Gave this to my 9 y.o. son for Christmas. He was super stoked and loves using it. Love that the system has instructional videos to go with it. Learning what to do and how to use it is easier with help!

So far I've used it with virtual DJ and serato and it seems to be working fine. Sometimes I have trouble getting both outputs to work (IE headphone jack and main output) at the same time with a virtual DJ. Everything works great with serato. I'm going to be getting another one really soon for a friend of mine's daughter who wants to start DJing

This a great bundle for the price. I gave the headphones to my dad and he uses them all the time. The controller itself is very handy, the vynil scratch mode is very on point. Very light weight I’ve taken it on a bunch of road trips so it came in handy when friends wanted some fun I could dj on the spot for them. My only complaint is there’s no faders but I can deal with that because there’s volume nobs anyway and they added Bass Eq nobs which is very essential and other controllers of the same size don’t have the bass eq. Overall I’m rating it a 5 stars because for the price it’s the best quality out there, you can literally bring it anywhere and if you’re starting out and are on a budget you will learn well enough on this! Also it comes with serato light which a lot of other controllers don’t come with a program you have to buy it separate. If you expect to ever play a gig live most of the time they will have cdjs with serato on them so it’s great to start practicing with that program.

To be honest...the units are similar. (I own both.) My issue with the Numark is it doesnt allow you to scratch on the mini jog wheels. (Most DJs I know like to do at least a "Baby Scratch" to cue up and release to start the track in rhythm) It doesn't have a Vinyl Mode...so it works as a Pitch Bend while the song is playing. You would have to scratch while the track is STOPPED...then you would have to try to time hitting the PLAY button on time separately to mimic that rhythmic effect. That was the MAJOR complaint I had with it. So...I bought the Hercules Starlight, hoping for better.You CAN scratch on the Starlight while the song is playing!!! It also allows access to your FXs and Loops (with pre set beat lengths) Most of the other features are kinda similar. If I was FORCED to complain about the Hercules Starlight...the only small thing would be you have to load the tracks with the buttons or mouse pad on your laptop. If you are used to using the Serato short cuts this is not a issue at all. Compact footprint. Decent sound card. (so you can use headphones to cue up your next song) Great portable backup unit that doesn't take up much space in your bag...just in case something goes wrong with your full size controller while at a gig. Great for testing basic mixes and setting Cue Points for prep work. So compact and light you can bring it everywhere! Which makes it awesome for impromptu parties with a DJ instead of a stop & go playlist. Very happy with this purchase!

More than what I expected! I'm 61 (yes, 61) and use to DJ back in the day when I was in the military. I got tired of just listening to my music, I wanted to play with it! Bought this controller and I don't regret it. A big step up from my Gemini mixer back in the day. You can create loops, stutter, play FX's, cue, sync, and scratch! This little baby has a built in sound card to hook up your powered speakers and a headphone out jack to cue your songs. This thing keeps me busy and I'm learning a lot! Well worth the money!
