Originally bought to make my frequent corporate gigs easier, instead of carrying my turntables, mixer and plus equipment. Works really well, had to get used to the decks a bit since I'm used to speeding the bpm by twisting the middle-knob on the disc. It's easy to scratch with this guy, very similar to scratching with 7"s. The main con with this I find is that the filter is not smooth enough, when you turn the filter, all the high tones begin to scream so you need to remember to pull them down before you filter. This aside, this is the first and only option I would take if not using turntables.
