Still not on general release yet, but I'd say this will be pretty good for "DJing" with Live amongst a lot of other things. Still waiting on mine...

Just as a side note- I had the NI- audiokontrol 6. the audio on it was mediocre.

If you're getting paid to dj, and are playing events where people are paying good money to see you, NI sound cards, rca cables and headphone jacks from your sound card are sub par.

Apogee duet2 or better for gigging.

I'd call the K2 an entry level toy, good for house parties, and free shows.

You can play off it, but just know, people playing cds will sound much cleaner and better than you, playing the same track. the large scale sound systems, up at full dance volume, will totally reveal any weakness in your audio chain.
