If you are running Mixxx on windows or osx, there's midi drivers for all the herc devices and they work via mixxx's midi bindings. If you are using Linux there is no midi drivers (email herc support and tell them you want drivers), avoid the MP3 (cause libdjconsole can't init it and there is a very crap file deviced based implementation), I was told if they did drivers they wouldn't do the for the Mk1, so avoid that one as well...
As far as the Mk2 goes it works via libdjconsole, the joystick at the top is useless (very imprecise) is not supported at all, otherwise these aren't bad. The RMX has clearier sound at low volume, has direrction buttons instead of the joystick (which work fine in libdjconsole), it's bigger and heavier because it is made of metal... Overall it is nice and seems to work decently well. All the linux herc specific code will be dropped in favour of midi, if and when herc does midi drivers for linux. I should write something on the wiki that explains things in more details because these questions come up every so often.
