Our take
I picked up the Hercules Inpulse 200 MK2 as my first controller, and for $100, it's a solid starting point. The 8 pads are responsive for triggering samples and loops, and the built-in filter effects add some flavor. It comes with DJUCED and Serato Lite, which is great for learning. The build feels a bit plasticky, but that's expected at this price. However, I wish the jog wheels were larger and had more resistance. Also, the lack of a mic input limits its use for vocalists. Overall, it's a no-frills controller that does the basics well.
