Review: All you really need for a traveling DJ - Super easy to use and the perfect travel size for those DJs who get out into the world. So many features that are critical and some fun tweaks if you play around. I’ve had no problems using this for over 40 hours in the past two years. I would and do recommend this controller to many people, especially when they ask about what I’m using to DJ. It’s paired with an Apple AV adapter for USB-A and an iPad using djay Pro. Review: A professional DJ's opinion - Read some of the other reviews here, written by people who received this product from desertcart for free, who do not seem to know a whole lot about DJ hardware and what to expect from it. I am a professional DJ, and I'd like to give my two cents. I bought this controller just for fun to see how it is. I wasn't sure what to expect from it, but I was beyond pleasantly surprised. This controller comes with Serato DJ Lite, which another reviewer complained about because of the cost associated with upgrading to DJ Pro, and questioned the trustworthiness of Serato. I can assure you that Serato DJ Pro is extremely widely used and respected by pros, and although Lite has limited features and promotes upgrading to Pro, it is still very good software and its shortcomings shouldn't reflect negatively on the controller itself; especially since a Pro license is only $100, which, assuming you already have a laptop, makes your total investment $180 - an extremely reasonable price for a functioning DJ setup, seeing as a single Pioneer CDJ can cost 10x that. Anyway, upon getting the Starlight in the mail, I immediately plugged it in and got to some mixing. The knobs and pitch faders feel very high quality, not too far short of what you'd have on a much more expensive controller. The quality of the audio output is pretty good as well, not superb but no worse than an average smartphone's headphone jack. I saw other reviewers complaining about the inability to connect Bluetooth headphones; this is not a valid complaint, I have never known of any piece of DJ gear with Bluetooth output, mainly due to the lag and quality limitations of Bluetooth audio. I suppose the last thing to address would be the LED lighting, which is certainly corny, but it's a fun touch and I see how it could appeal to new and/or very young DJs. Overall I would recommend this product to anyone looking to try out DJing or to give to their children to do so (assuming they have access to a Windows or Mac laptop). Remember when buying any DJ or audio gear to take online reviews with a grain of salt. Some people don't know enough to judge whether a product is good or bad, but review it anyway, resulting in uninformed and unwarranted praise or criticism. There are lots of good websites to ask questions and inform yourself! ## Features - The Perfect Dj Controller To Mix On The Move, With Serato Dj Lite Included - Built-In Sound Card To Pre-Listen To The Headphones And Speaker Outputs - Control The Back Lights On The Base: Rgb And Strobe Effects That Syncs To The Rhythm Of Your Mix - All The Essential Features: Bass/Filter, Hot Cue Modes, Loop, Fx, Sampler, Pressure Sensitive Jog Wheels, Etc ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07F8FQ8ST | | Audio Input | USB | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,644 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #8 in DJ Controllers | | Brand | Hercules | | Brand Name | Hercules | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 1,915 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00663296421623 | | Included Components | DJ Deck, cables, owners manual | | Item Type Name | DJ Mixer | | Item Weight | 1.1 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Hercules | | Number of Channels | 2 | | Output Connector Type | RCA | | Output Connector type | RCA | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | UPC | 663296421623 | | Unit Count | 5.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 year manufacturer., 1 year. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Hercules - **Connectivity Technology:** USB - **Item Weight:** 499 Grams - **Number of Channels:** 2 - **Power Source:** Battery Powered ## Images ![DJControl Starlight | Pocket USB DJ Controller with Serato DJ Lite, Touch-Sensitive Jog Wheels, Built-in Sound Card and Built-in Light Show - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51uN7JO7kdL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: will this control work with vdj ?** A: Yes this controller is compatible with virtual dj **Q: Can this connect to active speakers such as qsc k10s? or is there a safe way to connect to qsc k10s without damaging the controller?** A: It uses the speakers that the pc is connected to. **Q: Does it work with Rekordbox?** A: No it does not.

To my surprise this little guy allowed me to crush a small club venue with a pretty minimal learning curve. That said, Ive been DJing for about 20 years so song selection and interaction with the audience helped make up for any rough mixes due to the newness of this device in my hands. The jog wheels are very small yet sensitive so you will learn just the right touch with practice. Not bad for such a small controller. Also, it only has 1/8th inch out so that can also limit sound quality. I ended up plugging in a Y adapter into a Pioneer DJM900 channel and it worked out. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hercules DJ Control Starlight Compact Controller with Serato DJ Lite - Aproca Hard Carry Travel Case for Hercules DJControl Starlight Pocket USB DJ Controller - Native Instruments Traktor 8-Inch DJ Cable for iPad/iPhone (22472) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.es/products/86153053-djcontrol-starlight-pocket-usb-dj-controller-with-serato-dj-lite](https://www.desertcart.es/products/86153053-djcontrol-starlight-pocket-usb-dj-controller-with-serato-dj-lite) --- *Product available on Desertcart Spain* *Store origin: ES* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
