Same question gets asked and possibly answered a million times in this forum.
Do you have preferences about size, functions, number of channels, or the software?However, I’d look at these:
VirtualDJ

http://www.thomann.de/gb/gemini_g4v.htm
Both well featured, good construction.

September 7, 2014 at 9:55 pm in reply to: Mission impossible? Need portable speaker for flight #2053141Tuomas HelanderParticipantWhy not purchase one on-spot?
Tuomas HelanderParticipantShort answer: No.
Cue points are software-dependant. You did not mention whtich software/medium you were using. Cue points you set in one software do not transfer to other softwares, even with the same file. While There are some softwares that can import cue points from traktor to reckordbox, or vice versa.Try google. I didn’t find anything.
Tuomas HelanderParticipantHey new mix again! This is my take on Dubstep, and its somewhat UG stuff again (digged soundcloud). Lets Chart this to top10!

Tuomas HelanderParticipantI’m a DJ because music is moving. last time I had this problem, I put couple of well known groovy pop tracks playin, and went on the dancefloor myself. Coupla minutes later about 5 people joined, and after that some more. I think It worked good, since it was just a small corporate gig.
Tuomas HelanderParticipantAmen Brother!
Tuomas HelanderParticipantInstead of leaving comments in mixcloud I’ll put them here.
Generally very enjoyable mix. Coupla things come to mind:
– EQ mixing to prevent clashing basslines. IMO its more efficent and cleaner than using plain filters.
– Pay attention to levels of incoming tracks
– some simple audio editing would do wonders, for example removing half a minute of silence from the beginning.
– ms. Kymmypops! Yeah baby!Whats the tracks playing around 9 and 12 minutes, they were good?
Tuomas HelanderParticipantI did listen to your mix (with only one ear and with bad speakers, though, sorry for that)
Now this Reload part around 16-18 minutes: While I did like what you did there, I didn’t like how it sounded. Here’s a pun: Key is key! To reduce keys clashing here, the least you could do is to turn down the mid EQ on the Reload deck. The EQ mixing is generally the thing I think you need to work on. Try basic bass swap.
Other than that the mix was enjoyable, I didn’t recognise most of the tracks played here, whitch I concider a good thing.
Tuomas HelanderParticipantDid give a listen, and some love too! Completly outstanding mix, both techically and enjoyably. Can’t really give any constructive feedback at my level, I just wish this was the club standard around here!
Great mix.
Tuomas HelanderParticipantHas to be an awesome mix! A link would definitely help rewieving.
Tuomas HelanderParticipantI’m honored!
Tuomas HelanderParticipantThe month has turned, and therefore its tome for yet another DJ Tuomari podcast! This month I decided to work on something new and put together this moombahton mix. While this is nowhere as flawless as the previous trance mix, I’m still very happy how it all came together. The biggest issue when doing this was that the genre is not very abundant or mainstream, and so most of the stuff here is found from soundcloud and such services, stuff you won’t find on iTunes or Beatport!
Here we go

Share, love, comment and enjoy!
Tuomas HelanderParticipantI don’t know how much you tweaked this, since I don’t know the track (suprisingly, since its a protocol recordings release), so if you can:
Little excessive Chorus/reverb thorough the whole track and especially on the intro, I’d take it down to half or so. Bring in the bassline @2 mins a bit (only a little).
Other than that it sounds good!
