It might be if it has MIDI option.

That mixer's USB ports are for mixing music straight from a MP3 player. Look at the USB ports - they are backwards.

I think it is dedicated to it's own producer software and does not support MIDI option.

I use to have the dm2, not with VDJ but just with the mixman software. It was hardly worth the $30 I payed for it. Cheap plastic buttons that would get stuck under the plastic chassis when pressed in, and not very well built at all. I thought the mixman company went under, kinda surprised to see them still around;^]

Still stuck with what to buy, how about this one, cannot seem to find google info on it, or if I do the product with the same name is completely different to the one im looking for,
heres the spec;

Take your DJing forward into the digital world with the complete computer based DJ solution which includes the X-Session USB DJ mixer, Ableton Live XS digital audio workstation and Arturia Storm XS virtual studio.

Designed for the new breed of DJ to mix on PC or Mac. X-Session has a classic full-size crossfader for cutting and scratching, 16 assignable rotary controllers for pitch-shifting, tweaking Delay/EQ/Filter/Distortion/Flange, 10 assignable buttons for triggering loops, grooves, digital effects and killing tracks plus stacks more cutting-edge features which will take your DJing into the future.

This USB controller also provides finger-tip control for a whole host of popular software plug-ins and virtual instruments, eliminating the frustrations of trying to use a mouse. Fast and precise control is provided by the 16 fully assignable high resolution controllers. Each of these controllers can be assigned to a different MIDI channel which means that multiple plug-ins can be controlled on separate channels. Synths and modules can also be controlled via the standard MIDI Out socket. X-Session has 10 memory locations for storing your settings. These are non-volatile too, so everything is saved even when the unit is powered off.
