The choices are rane, xone, or ecler nuo. If your a hip hopper spend the extra cash on the rane. Otherwise your choices are ecler and A&H, my personal choice is ecler because I like the layout and chunky knobs more, but it's all preference.
Traktor/Itch: Xone Dx - MidiFighter x1
Ableton: Livid Code - iPad - KP3
Tech: Macbook Pro 17", intel i7, 8gb RAM, 500gb HD 7200RPM
A&H products give me wood.
What's yopur budget, first off?
yeah, budget first

I absolutely love my Xone 4D. A dude named MixArkitekt has a really awesome midi mapping for it as well!
EPIC piece of kit!
Here's the thing - and this has come up a lot lately - if you need to ask the question, you probably can't justify spending the type of money on a mixer like the ones listed in this thread.
Chances are, if you don't have the knowledge/experience to pick a mixer, you've probably not got the amp and speaker/powered speakers set-up to hear a difference in sound quality anyway.
So what do you do? Simple. You buy a Behringer DDM4000.
I've been using mine for a while now (>4months) - the only thing I can complain about is:
1) Fader caps are quite loose on mine. No biggie - I just did the old "piece-of-folded-paper-over-the-fader-stem" mod. (Experience is good. )
2) Cross-fader cut-in is not great. But I knew this would be the case, and have budgeted for an innofader once the Behringer one dies. The BLOODY thing is still going strong, though!
