    i havent had any reason to not just mix internally yet so picked up a cheap djtech djm101 for 20quid a while ago, as its just a nice (smallish) dj mixer layout but pure midi, so means i can add it to any other of my controllers for a more normal dj feel...
    right now with the launchpad and the nanoKontrol I have no EQ, and I was looking at the X-Session. I got to thinking, though, I might run out of USB ports...

    And it might be nice to have some gear that won't get outdated as much as controllers do, but then again, since this is such low end stuff, I'd outgrow it before it gets outdated anyway.

    So it shouldn't really matter that much, I guess I just thought "Ooh, turntables!" and you're right - that mixer doesn't even have 3 channel EQ. So it's a no go.
    If you feel something is limiting your creativity, the real problem is that you feel that your creativity can be limited.

    if you're just wanting to add eq control for a couple of decks to your setup then either of the djm101 or xsession pro would do the job and both can be found pretty cheap 2nd hand. more controls on the xsession ofc - could probably be used to control 4 decks quite nicely.

    you shouldn't have any issue with running out of usb ports if you use a hub or two unless u go crazy and buy a whole stack of other controllers and want to use them all at the same time
