What to buy...
Ok so, I have been thinking for a long time about my DJ Setup. I have never really had a real controller before. All I have used was my ION Discover DJ, Two Numpad Mods, and a MIDI Keyboard. I have been using Traktor Pro 2 with it however, so I am quite familiar with a lot of it's features.
Here are a few of my options:
1) Totally Custom
- My custom mixer that I will make and map myself.

-Two VTT 101s for Jog Wheels.
Pros:
~I have all the features I will need for most of my mixes.
~Totally custom and unique.
Cons:
~Expensive.
~Lot of Work.
~Have to map and convert all messages, buttons, knobs, and faders.
2)Pricey yet Nicey
-Either a TRAKTOR KONTROL S4 or NUMARK NS6.
-Two Classic Midi Fighters
-One Midi Fighter Pro
Pros:
~Lots of features
~Easy to map in any program
Cons:
~Very Expensive
~Hard to transport
3) DJTT Geek
-VCI-100 Arcade Edition
-2 Midi Fighter Classics
-1 Midi Fighter Pro
-M-AUDIO X-Session Pro
Pros:
~Lots of good reviews by other DJTT members
~Inexpensive
~Can hold lots of features
~Lots of different mappings
~Extremely durable
~Easy to modify
~Not difficult to understand
~Portable
Cons:
~Lots of plastic pieces
So if it isn't obvious -- I am probably gooing to become a DJTT Geek. Tell me what you would get.

yay another djtt freak anything you get form djtechtools you know will be quality and will take a beating. I would recommend a midifighter pro and a x-session or 2 classic midifighters and an x-session.

your really over thinking the amount of gear you need for traktor pro 2
a vci and an x1 would do you just fine and cover everything
x1's are cheap and there are so many vci's for sale at cheap prices in the buy/sell fourm
