    Well, I can speak to the Reloop Digital Jockey – I’ve had one for about 4 months now. I really don’t have any complaints other than one, but don’t know if it’s a software issue. The one thing w/ the reloop that I’ve found is that the support for it is basically non existent. I have had trouble twice now with it just ‘crashing’ to where my comp doesn’t recognize the midi controller. The sound still goes through software wise, but I have to actually restart my computer to fix it. It has done this twice, and both times when I was recording. When I’m not recording I haven’t had any problems…
    Other than that, I haven’t had any issues with it. It seems solid, has good mapping to Traktor, and doesn’t have a ‘cheap’ look to it. Mostly metal construction and good response on the jogs.
    That being said, I am definitely ready for an upgrade. The main reason is the outputs. Now that I’m starting to get real gigs and play on larger sound systems, the one set of RCAs just isn’t cutting it anymore. I will probably stick w/ this set up for the rest of the year and after the holidays start picking out and saving up for a new controller. For what you are looking to do, I think the Reloop would work well though.

    The controllers and mixers you listed are largely different from each other…
    The mixtrack does not have a soundcard the mixtrack pro does have one. Yes for the price point it is plastic, but it is good quality plastic and I know several wedding DJs who use it exclusively and have no problem with it on the road.

    I have no idea about the Jockey 2, I only played with the Jockey 3 ME and it is an excellent unit, especially since it is so nicely mapped to Traktor but can also be used as a standalone mixer.

    For the double purpose of TP2 and Ableton the K2 would be my choice. With 4 upfaders you don’t really need a cf, I mean it doesn’t sound like ur scratching or sth like that.

    Plus there’s many mappings on the web already, so that could be an upside with TP2 🙂
