Ask HN: Looking for a DJ Program
Mixxx is excellent and has pretty wide hardware support.
FYI the "limited" functionality of Rekordbox can be hardware unlocked with some Pioneer controllers.

How to create a playlist of tracks in Ableton Live Lite?
There are quite a few DJs that use Ableton for DJing (or hybrid sets). Of course, Ableton wasn't made with DJing as its main function in mind but you totally can use it for that purpose and (with some tweaking) do everything and more that would be possible in a dedicated DJing software (like Traktor or Rekordbox or Mixxx)

Is getting a DDJ SX as a beginner a good idea? Post includes offers
Mixxx (you already mentioned this; it's certainly a great piece of free software to test the DJ waters with and works with a lot of gear).

Turntable and controller setup
Alternatively, you can also use Mixxx with the S4 MK2. Mixxx is free. But instead of a Traktor control vinyl record, you'd use Serato timecode instead, as stated in the docs.

Linux users?
If the device is class-compliant, i.e. it follows the generic USB spec and doesn’t need drivers installed, it can work under Linux. However the free software you get with the controller (Serato, Rekordbox, Traktor etc.) won’t. The alternative is to use Mixxx. It’s free and open source. You can check their controller support. https://mixxx.org/

HELP Can't decide should I take up DJing as a hobby?
If you don't like any of those, aren't you glad you didn't spend the money to find out the hard way? There's more DJ software than those two, so try out these as well: Traktor Pro 3, Virtual DJ, DJUCED, or Mixxx.
