    in any booth, the sound shouldn't be so loud that it shakes your jog wheels... you'll be ok with the mixtrack pro.

    i just inherited one from a relative who wanted to get into DJ'ing but couldn't. i used it saturday at a benefit gig and it was fine, sound-wise. there's actually a decent card in there.

    if you want to broaden your horizons for more gig opportunities, get a CDJ and run it in HID mode just to get a feel for it.

    the F1 can grab samples from decks you press and hold captur button then use the knob to select what deck to grab from. when you release it, it flashes and you can now choos have long the samples should be then just press any pad and the loop is added to that slot in the remix decks. Sound like lot of work but can be done in seconds.
    And to the mixtrax I think it should be fine for bar gigs you could upgrate after a few gig if you feel it's not good enough for you.
    I don't have top of the line equiptment but I've been giging bars and large venues with my equiptment for 2 years now whitout problems.
