Since I've seen this question a few times now on the list and on IRC...
Particularly people asking if Control MP3 was a good one to pick for Mixxx

I've written a FAQish addition to the Hercules DJ Console page that talks
about the supportability in Mixxx and some of buying considerations for
these devices...
