    • My favorite backpack style controller.
style: DJControl Starlight
This controller has one amazing option that the other guy doesn't have - the ability to turn scratch mode OFF! This is a mixing DJ beast for Serato DJ - and I can get it down to 1ms delay (MacBook Pro M2). Keep in mind, no mic on this controller - so if you need that, go get something else. Already have been pulling off amazing DJ blends (less bells is more guys - 25 years of DJ experience) - this is such an underrated piece of hardware. And it's super cheap! I might buy another! Great job, Hercules! ... show more

    • wow... love this thing
style: DJControl Starlight
this is honestly everything I need in a controller. super portable, I've used it from planes to trains to stadiums to more. if you use it with a bluetooth set of cans it only needs a single wire. or you can wire it in for great latency control. limitations... there aren't that many knobs and they all do a limited set of things. if you are comfortable remapping that's not an issue, you'll basically be mixing with 6 software knobs (with toggle), a crossfader, and plenty of buttons. that's more than enough for me. also two decks only, duh. lastly, the sound card isn't great quality (as expected for the price), and if your laptop is plugged into a noisy ground or DC that will translate, especially under high amplification. I still use it and find no issues, but this isn't a $1000 mixer. it also feels a little cheap/plasticy, which might turn some people off. I don't care, because it does the job. the pros of the knobs is they are *very sensitive*... micro-movements translate extremely well which gives you lots of control. the crossfader is also surprisingly smooth and bouncy for the price, again don't expect a $1000 scratching crossfader but you can actually scratch on this thing without much effort. upsides... you can mix anywhere. and if you can sound good on this thing, moving to any other controller is ez mode. it's very compatible with a wide range of software, including my favorite the open source Mixxx. It's on the wired midi standard so should be good for many many many years to come. tldr buy this thing. ... show more

    • Small-but-terrible controller!
style: DJControl Starlight
Review Image by Andy Bulay Andy Bulay
The Starlight is awesome to carry with you as a back-up unit, or perfect for those small, unplanned groupy parties! The fact that I’ve easily re-mapped it to suit DJAY’s stems configuration is truly a delight!

    • Great Portable Mixer or for Beginning DJ
style: DJControl Starlight
Quick and easy connections, works great with Serrato DJ Pro. But a couple key features are missing and some annoyances. First, selecting songs and loading them into the decks require external control - would be great if they used the existing shift-key and a knob (such as the two track volume controls) to scroll and select a song instead. Second, the lights are fun but when the deck is not being used, they continue to run patterns even when the computer sleeps- annoying at night requiring you to unplug it. No re-mapping capabilities to reassign functionality in the software as well. The sound is good but I would hesitated using it on a large venue/club, headphones have a decent output but can distort if pushed. For the price, it is a fun portable deck and can easily fit in a backpack. The bass/filter option is an improvement over the competition as well. ... show more

    • A professional DJ's opinion
style: DJControl Starlight
Read some of the other reviews here, written by people who received this product from Amazon for free, who do not seem to know a whole lot about DJ hardware and what to expect from it. I am a professional DJ, and I'd like to give my two cents. I bought this controller just for fun to see how it is. I wasn't sure what to expect from it, but I was beyond pleasantly surprised. This controller comes with Serato DJ Lite, which another reviewer complained about because of the cost associated with upgrading to DJ Pro, and questioned the trustworthiness of Serato. I can assure you that Serato DJ Pro is extremely widely used and respected by pros, and although Lite has limited features and promotes upgrading to Pro, it is still very good software and its shortcomings shouldn't reflect negatively on the controller itself; especially since a Pro license is only $100, which, assuming you already have a laptop, makes your total investment $180 - an extremely reasonable price for a functioning DJ setup, seeing as a single Pioneer CDJ can cost 10x that. Anyway, upon getting the Starlight in the mail, I immediately plugged it in and got to some mixing. The knobs and pitch faders feel very high quality, not too far short of what you'd have on a much more expensive controller. The quality of the audio output is pretty good as well, not superb but no worse than an average smartphone's headphone jack. I saw other reviewers complaining about the inability to connect Bluetooth headphones; this is not a valid complaint, I have never known of any piece of DJ gear with Bluetooth output, mainly due to the lag and quality limitations of Bluetooth audio. I suppose the last thing to address would be the LED lighting, which is certainly corny, but it's a fun touch and I see how it could appeal to new and/or very young DJs. Overall I would recommend this product to anyone looking to try out DJing or to give to their children to do so (assuming they have access to a Windows or Mac laptop). Remember when buying any DJ or audio gear to take online reviews with a grain of salt. Some people don't know enough to judge whether a product is good or bad, but review it anyway, resulting in uninformed and unwarranted praise or criticism. There are lots of good websites to ask questions and inform yourself! ... show more
