Designed for portability
DJ2GO2 Touch is small enough to sit directly in front of a laptop and is easy to carry as a backup controller. Its compact size also makes it useful for music preparation, small informal sets and situations where a normal controller would take up too much desk or travel space.
Capacitive touch jog wheels
The Touch version adds capacitive platter control, so the jog wheels can be used for more direct cueing and scratch-style movement rather than only pitch nudging.
Performance pads
Four pads per deck provide access to performance functions such as cue points, loops and samples, depending on the selected software mode.
Built-in audio interface
An onboard sound card provides separate main and headphone outputs, allowing track cueing before the mix is sent to the audience. That is an important distinction from tiny MIDI-only controllers that still need a separate audio interface.
Serato DJ Lite and Pro
DJ2GO2 Touch includes Serato DJ Lite and can also be used with Serato DJ Pro when the appropriate upgrade is available. Numark lists it as a class-compliant controller on supported systems.

Overall view
DJ2GO2 Touch is specialised rather than basic. Its strength is that it provides genuine two-deck software control, cueing and a built-in sound card in a format small enough to travel almost anywhere. For preparation and backup duty in particular, that makes it unusually practical.
