All-in-One controllers are all-round solutions for use with a laptop. They typically combine a DJ mixer and decks in one unit.

Use
All-in-one controllers take the place of a conventional DJ set-up and are therefore standalone units (e.g. used in a controller-only setup), i.e. - not for use with other hardware.

Buyers guide for All-in-One controllers...

This device allows for optimal plabyack control of digital tracks. Available as one-deck or two-deck controller.

Use
Replaces the CD or vinyl decks and is therefore used in combination with a DJ mixer - e.g. in a Hybrid Set-up.

Buyers guide for Deck Controllers...

Small auxiliary controller for the manipulation of effects and special functions of DJ software, such as looping.

Use
This unit does not offer complete mixing control by itself and is therefore most suitable for a laptop set-up or as an addition to an analog set-up (e.g. Hybrid Set-up) or with a timecode control set-up.

Buyers guide for additional controllers...

An enhanced audio mixer is a hybrid unit which combines an analog DJ mixer and an auxiliary or decks controller.

Use
Depending on their functional range, enhanced audio mixers either completely replace a conventional DJ setup or are used in combination with deck controllers ( e.g. in a Hybrid Set-up) or timecode controllers in a Timecode Set-up.
