About this product
The Hercules DJControl Starlight Pocket is a compact, double deck USB DJ controller that includes Serato DJ Lite software. Priced at $80.00, it's an ultra-portable option for beginners or mobile DJs on a budget. The controller is USB-powered and designed for on-the-go use, with a pocket-sized form factor. It originates from China and offers basic DJ control functions.
Our take
For $80, the Starlight Pocket is a fun little gadget. It's tiny—truly pocket-sized—so you can take it anywhere. It works with Serato DJ Lite, which gets you started mixing right away. The build is all plastic and feels a bit cheap, but that's expected at this price. The jog wheels are small and not great for scratching, and there are no dedicated effects controls. However, if you just want to learn the basics or have a travel controller, this does the job without breaking the bank.
