Controller suggestions please : Phono inputs for Vinyl + no laptop required

Hi, new to the forum,

Hope the title is self explanatory. Im looking to take the step from vinyl to digital and would like to replace my current mixer with a DJ controller that:

  1. I can plug my vinyl decks into
  2. Does not require a laptop /mac
  3. Has USB input / digital display to show tracks playing

I liked the look of the pioneer XDJ-Aero but just realised you can’t plug turntables into it :disappointed:. Any other suggestions?
I don’t need CD players and would prefer jog wheel while I make the transition from vinyl to digital

hope there is something out there to suit my needs. Obviously as its a bit of a venture to start I don’t wanna be forking out mega ££

Cheers

Gazza

So you want the advantages of a DVS system to play files digitally through your turntables, mixing with a controller but not need a computer?

Yeah, CDJ is the closest you’re going to get at this point in time.
