Macbook pro 15"
NI audio kontrol 6
(am planning to replace sound card - decent in studio, but for gigs I always had to gain it all the way up, and it doesn't sound as good maxed out)
vestax vcm 600 as my usb mixer
latest version of Live.
Use the oddesy vestax controller coffin- works great- If there's no dj booth, I can set up on a keyboard stand.
Came in handy in December when I played right after infected mushroom in LA.
For headphones I use Ultimate Ear custom moulded in ear monitors.
and a handful of drink tickets from the promoter.

MBP, motu ultralite, nanokontrol, wiimote. Fits in a backpack. Fits on a small table. Endless possibilities. Cheap. People still freak out when they see me controling efx with the wiimote. Plus I can go dancing or to the bar and still switch scenes and apply efx remotely.
Thinking about using touchosc on my new android phone. Need some time to try that out.

I have two different set ups I use. The first is a software based set up, MBP running Ableton Live, APC40, and RME FF400:
Recently I've been using a hardware based live set up though, based on an Elektron Machinedrum and Octatrack:
