While the DJControl Starlight is an über-portable DJ controller, it has all the right features. Its two super-responsive jog wheels boast both beatmatching and vinyl modes, while eight backlit pads offer four modes: hot-cue, loop, FX, and sampler. Each channel includes a combination low EQ and highpass/lowpass filter for polishing your sound and separate volume controls for balancing your levels. There are also master output and headphones volume knobs, plus buttons for cueing your channels or the master mix. As far as connectivity goes, you get a master output and headphones output via 1/8-inch stereo jacks, along with a mini-USB port for connecting to your laptop. If you’re new to the world of DJing, Sweetwater wholeheartedly recommends the DJControl Starlight — it contains all the features you need and leaves out the ones you don’t.
