Mini DJ mixers?

[mannybolone]

I'm looking for a small but functional mixer to use with two Columbia GP3s. The obvious choice would be the Columbia GMX-3, the actual mixer that's supposed to pair with the GP3 but given its lack of a basic cueing function, it's not that enticing (unless I'm wrong about the lack of a cueing function).

So basically what I'm looking for would be a mixer with a crossfader + cueing. The two that are currently on the market I've seen would be:

The iRig: http://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/irigmix/

The Pokket: http://www.pokketmixer.com/

Anything else I'm missing? There's the old Vestax 005 and then this super-cheap looking plastic model from a few years back that I don't think is in production anymore.

I ounce bought a small radio shack style 2 Channel mixer to team up with the 2 numark portos. Nothing fancy like eq or pff but good enough to do the trick. It set me back for 20 euro wich is nothing for the Fun we had.

The problem with the Numark and Vestax mini mixers is that they're too high; they were made for 1200s but not a pair of portables.





iRig may be the way to go.





Here's that other, super-tiny one I mentioned. Out of production (probably a good thing): http://diydata.wordpress.com/2010/06/07/lecci-pocket-sized-dj-mixer/

Ha, that Lecci mixer is great, shame about the quality.





Where are you using the GP3's? Always assumed the audio from them would be terrible, obv not?

The sound quality is fine...for what it is. Obviously, you wouldn't try to install this in a club somewhere (though honestly, I'm not sure most people at most clubs would care/notice). But for something like an outdoor party/bbq, hooked into some basic 7" speakers? Totally fine.

Have you had a look at these? Looks alright.











And you might be able to dig one of these up - no crossfader doe.

I suddenly have the urge to pretend to be a deejay again. Micro.
