Gemini PS 626 Pro 2. Haven't had much experience with it yet but so far it's really easy to use, has 3 channels, good rotary eq's, and it was under $120. If I had more money to spend I probably would've gone with the vestax PCV-275 (god that machine is sexy), I love the split-cue option. My friend is getting a pioneer djm-500 or 600 and is selling his vestax PMC-07PRO for $500 (i'm guessing the price is somewhat flexible, but it goes for like $800 new). It needs a new x-fader but besides that it's in good shape (I've used it, great for mixing hardcore and newbie dj's). Go to 123dj.com to check it out. He lives in Northern California, let me know if anyone's interested.

I'm currently using a Numark 2000x. The crossfader's not very good and you can't adjust it, but I like the channel fades. It's got these 2 blinking lights next to the cross fader. They're supposed to be beatmatching lights, but all they are is annoying.

we'll they aren't very good =P you have to go nearly half way over on the fader to scratch. they also have a tendency to bleed quiet readily too =/ *SLAM* =P

My mixer is a Citronic CDM 5:2
And my direct decks are also Citronics
These are my decks but mine are called PD-1 (the only difference is that mine don't play in reverse)
I got these on Sunday 18th November 2001.
You light up another cigarette
And I pour the wine
It's four o'clock
In the morning
And it's starting
To get light

I'm only really a begginer, it don't have much fuctions on it, but the sound is brilliant, cause I got it hooked up to an amp and my DENON stereo. But the mixer and decks do what I want it to do for the time, (Scratch, Merge, Punch and Kill the sound on records, so yeah i'm quite pleased with 'em, also they are not belt driven, which is good (belt drives are SHIT!!)

i use the PIONEER DJM600, i think its the best mixer for a rave.i love the features like :
- flange
- AUTO BPM COUNTER
- AUTO BEAT SAMPLER
- • DELAY: Repeats a sound once. The user can set the delay to their desired tempo.
• ECHO: Repeats a sound several times. The user can set the echo sound to their desired tempo.
• AUTO PAN: Automatically shifts the sound to the right and left. Also capable of short auto pan sequences that would be impossible via manual operation.
• AUTO TRANS: Periodically cuts the sound.
• AUTO FILTER: Periodically varies the sound color.
• FLANGER: Periodically reproduces a sound effect resembling a jet airplane ascending and descending.
• REVERB: Reproduces a reverberating sound effect.
• PITCH SHIFTER: Allows the interval to be freely varied throughout a range of +/-1 octave. With this, the user can compensate for interval changes when using analog turntables or for tempo changes when different makers' CD players are used. Additionally, choruses can be made by employing mix ratios.

I used to have a Numark EM260....
its the one with the khaos pad
although the kahos pad is fun for about a week.. the mixer underneeth the 300 quid you spend is a damn DM1000X
and NO it doesnt have better faders... they still b0rk after about a month.. along with the XF.. the eq is STILL to close together... the monitoring system is still good tho
but i took it back...
and got one of these babys :D
dont be fooled by the angled faders.. there very comfortable to use...
the punch buttons are funky
and the Xfader curve is damn near perfect.. you can have instant on/off for scratchin or a total slope.. or anywhere inbetween... ite a damn sweet mixer for the price
