    ION Discover DJ USB DJ controller for Mac and PC (Discontinued by Manufacturer)

    • Not bad for someone who finds interest in being a DJ or would just like to try something new
    • What I recommend you do is get...-Virtual DJ or Traktor for the software(you'll have to buy em for the device to be recognized)-ASIO4all driver (which gives you sound driver options)-USB sound card (to listen to the backtrack while DJing
    • If you actually get good at it, and you get a copy of a compatible Traktor program (the free DJ software it comes with will work, but is very limited), you could use this toy to do a live set at a party or even a bar
    • I'm definitely "Not" a DJ, but I like to change my music around without the abrupt stop
    • But the great thing about the Discover DJ is that it's also a MIDI device that can be used with any dj software that supports a midi controller (NI Traktor, Virtual DJ, Mixxx, DJay, and others), with a bit of mapping
    • Mix Vibes CROSSDJ DJ PackageNote that like all low-end DJ controllers, it doesn't have its own sound card
    • Discover DJ is utterly perfect for the target market, and a lot of fun for skilled DJs too.
    • The scratching will not turn constantly with the music, so it is not like the real DJ mixer set, however it is sensitive enough to have fun
    • Its worth it even if your a first time DJ
    • So prior to this, the only DJ skills i had were using my laptop mouse to mix songs with software like mixvibes and virtual DJ Pro
    • But you can buy the full version of Cross DJ (currently $49, sometimes on sale for $39) from the MixVibes web site, which works with almost every DJ controller they support, and lets you record your sessions
    • You would think that it would only be good for a toy or for a game like DJ Hero, but it actually delivers as quite a good little DJ interface
    • You will still need a proper DJ 4-channel-out USB sound card so that you can get a separate headphone mix
