I searched a bit but didn't find too much.

I'm planning on getting a mixer soon. All I have is a turntable and an MPC2000XL. After my mixer I plan on looking for an ASR-10, so I need something with enough for those three. My budget is about $400-$450.

Any suggestions?

I personally would not spend too much on a mixer to amplify the turntable. instead, I would put that money towards the asr-10, but if you are looking for a good quality mixer.. look towards vestax or rane, and make sure they have at least ome sort of EQ control.

I would focus on getting a basic 12-channel mixer (Behringer, Mackie, etc). Look on Ebay to get one under $500. You'll be able to mix the various outputs from all of your midi and audio devices together. A DJ mixer is only going to offer limited inputs because it's primaily used for a pair of turntables/CD players. Most 12-channel mixers offer mic-pres which can be used to power your mics and feed the signal to your soundcard/recorder/etc.
