Useful!!
First of all a controller is nothing nothing like a pair of CDjs and a mixer but I must say this is a good piece of equipment. The best feature about this product is that there is no need for a laptop to mix live (of course you have to import your tracks into rekordbox then your USB beforehand but once you've done that you're ready to go!) Most clubs already provide the equipment but once in while when there is a house party or there is a venue that doesn't provide the equipment this comes in handy, it is accurate, easy to understand and most of all easy to set up. It will save you a lot of hassle!!

Perks of This Controller! from a; RX user.
The XDJ-RX allows you to simultaneously play back and record tracks thanks to the dual USB ports. On top, two USB soundcards let you record your performances directly to a USB device to review them later.
The integrated use of the Rekordbox software, allows me to simultaneously stream tracks from the 2 USB slots. But also use the controllers built in wifi to stream another 2 iOs products with the Rekordbox software.
Great piece of kit I use at home and on the road!
