I've used the Pioneer 1000s
which are pretty much the industry standard, and I'm not even a fan of those. Just not as tactile as vinyl. Hence why I consider Final Scratch et al to be the best of both worlds (not having to carry a back breaking record bag round is a bonus)

No3l - Traktor 3 is the latest version isn't it? I agree it is clunky, you have to use a soundcard with 4 outputs and mix it on an external mixer, crossfading with a mouse is long! And also there's the controlling it issue.

Edit: (sound engineer hat on) and don't use a DJM600. They're superb at putting out distorted signals even before the red lights come on, there's far too much gain available in the things to let DJs at em. And what DJ mixer are you thinking of that has more than 3 bands of EQ? Not sure I've ever seen one.

Edit 2: Morning Lucy & Kaol!
