So, I was actually wrong. The DDJ-RR works as a mixer and for Rekordbox DVS.
Drogtech's idea about the X1 (or X1mk2, though it is better w/ traktor) is good.
I did that at some point, though the end result of it was me ditching DVS, because there wasn't actually anything (beyond manual tempo) that it didn't do better.
I haven't had any problems with it, but I haven't used it professionally or all that extensively, and I haven't tried the DVS. I've had fewer crashes than with Traktor 2.11.whatever and actually prefer it except that there just aren't controllers for it as good as the D2s for how I like to do things.
I use it occasionally with my DDJ-SX (sometimes through my A10 into my rotary), and I like it well enough except that I just don't like traditional CDJ-style deck controllers anymore. The thought has actually crossed my mind to map a DDJ-SP1 to it just because I'm pretty sure it'll give me all the control I need to play just on that...with what I thnk are better effects than Traktor has. Something about it just seems like a step backwards.
Anyone knows what happened with the DJ Tech Dicer clone? That solves the problem of missing browsing controls on a dvs mixer.

Aren't the dicers still made?
These are different, have rotary encoder so you can easily browse the library etc.
