Thanks for sharing, and glad you enjoyed the video!

Can't agree more, ddj sb3 its definitely good controller

Where is there shop?

Nice, thanks for sharing! Rodney will be pleased to know he's got some more back up for team Z1 🙌

Why don’t you consider switching to ddj 400 anymore? Which one is the better device ?

@@MegaBullshitChannel I ended up trading all the way up to a DDJ 1000 SRT and have been absolutely loving it, do wish I would of got the DDJ 1000 so I could also use Rekordbox as well but you learn and live 😊

How do you use a mic with no input?

You dont.

yeah i thought about a hercules impulse 300 too, im kinda standing between the DDJ-400 and the impulse 300, i've never tried one before so im really not sure which one to pick, im 100% new to this. But the beatmatch sounds really usefull. Does it still do the job today? like are you still happy about the impulse 300 now, and think it can still live up to the standards in 2022

Everything’s so expensive now. You make a decision?

The numark mixtrack platinum fx seems to be selling for a good price. That’s the one I have my eye on at the moment.

@@Boog0 yeah I eventually went with the TRAKTOR S3. It’s Not on this list but it ticked all the boxes I wanted and there’s scope to grow in it, I’m loving it so far.

@@wizdude I got the DDJ flx4. At first I got the Hercules impulse 300 but returned it and spent 100 more for the flx4. So nice

It will be great for you once you get that physical controller! No problem, hope we helped your decision :)

@@GetintheMix Would you recommend the Sb3, I would get the ddj-400 but I got Serrano dj pro for free and am pretty comfortable with it now and prefer it to starting with recordbox, any opinions?

I have the SB3 now for almost a year and LOVE IT!

serato pro 140 bucks :(

Are you still happy with it? I'm kinda leaning to that or maybe the ddj400

@@Scientists_dont_lie im debating on the same

That is a good point to consider, feels great to have the full version of the software. It could bump it up the list for some like yourself.

I strongly recommend the impulse 500

bought one too. love it but am not using DJUCED just yet as I do videos only. Using it on virtual dj and it works perfect all functions

@@armgod1 I am using Serato Pro with the 500 also works perfect

That is a good point worth considering when making a decision with these!

I purchased the 400 for the exact reason and already have gigs i can go all in on

The last release of DJUCED is truely amazing and more and more people just prefer Djuiced to Serato or Rekordbox (me included). And it's 100% free with the inpulse 500. Rekordbox or Serato Pro isn't the best option to everyone like few months/years ago.

@@Barabassx I never tried djuice but how would u rate against vdj?

@@kudamah Give it a try. You can download test version. I have also been using it for several years. The advantage is that since the last updates of djuced 5 there is no or hardly any difference with other software. Except for the price. I have hercules 500 or else I would have taken pioneer ddj 400. For part of Hercules 500 is a controller for beginner and also for the advanced. You can turn off the accompaniment. An advantage of djuced is that it is continuously developed at the request of the user. If you are a really professional DJ I would go for danon or pioneer. Because this is the club standard. Danon prime 4 is a genius device, but you also pay for that.

The Hercules Impulse 500 works with Virtual DJ (www.virtualdj.com/manuals/hardware/hercules/inpulse500/setup.html). However, a Pro Infinity, a Pro Subscription or a PLUS License is required to use the Hercules DJControl Inpulse 500. Without any of the above Licenses, the controller will operate for 10 minutes each time you restart VirtualDJ.

Depending on what you need, you can also look at the Hercules Inpulse 200 as well but I don't think buying the Inpulse 300 is worth it as an upgrade from the 200.

Ok good to know also thinking about getting this controller!! Does it all map up automaticly in Traktor btw ? Also will be use for psy ;) (check our label if you want some music btw ;))!!

Can you remap the FX buttons to other ones than the labeled? And persist these until changed?

👊🧡

Hercules I love you!

my first controller is hercules air having since 4 years ahah, now i would love hercules 500 !

Hercules, is there a way to loosen up those platters for proper jungle reloads for the soundboy clash?

I love my DDJ-SZ2 ( purchased for yourselves) But will never get rid of my lovely Hercules MX-4 from 2014, still works like the day I got it, bomb proof bit of kit thats top quality

M8

It's the only one with midi.

You're forgetting the most important part... Under £300

in serato on Inpulse 500 you can rebind knobs so you can have filters + fx on knobs..and i'd even say better FX on inpulse 500. And obviously you didn't test Djuced for a while. Test the last release and understand why it's now at the same level than Serato Pro and Rekordbox (at least for 95% of DJ's). No offense to Pioneer, its DDJ400 is getting old and Pioneer has the bad habit to count too much on its name to sell but hey, smaller brands are pushing very hard now and even Hercules (who made bad quality "toys" few years ago !) is better now with its Inpulse 500 and has amazing build quality way better than the entry Pionneer DDJ200&400.

Freaking agree tryna find reasons to upgrade, but I have no complaints

Agreed! The easy use with the iPad is a game changer for some, makes it very versatile.

Traktor still the best when you dive deep into midi. S2 MK3 is a 4 deck controller with creative programming 👍

Hercules DJ is based in France :)

@@GetintheMix Thanks for that!! but I guess they're made/assembled in commie chy-na

Appreciate it!

that controller is a tank! I love mine

I'd love to see a review on DJuced v Serato Pro using the Inpulse 500. Way more options while using it on DJuced.

better connectivity ?

@@ivanriobla lol

That would be genius. More standalone control. With fx dry/wet parameter. Key lock button. Large jog wheels and sensitivity adjustable. And display. Then Hercules walks together at the same height as Pioneer, Numark and Denon.

@@ivanriobla What do you mean by better connection?

I've had the Hercules 500 for several years, works great with Serato pro, although I'm not a fan of Serato. Rekordbox is the best for me. Although djuced has become really good, especially after update version 5, better than Serato is my opinion. Only thing wrong on the Hercules 500 is dry/wet button for the fx. Furthermore, it is perfect for beginners and experienced DJs. Super good service from hercules and djuced they also work very well with other streaming platforms. Especially beatport. Both hercules and djuced work the service close together. don't stop there duced. It's also free. And they process customizations in the updates requested by users. There is also test panel. In short, for the DJ who wants to play fun parties at home or drive in a top controller. If you want to play in larger clubs, you will really have to go for pioneer or the danon that also plays at the same level. Always nice to add the Hercules 500. I hope Hercules comes with an even newer controller. More the stand alone control. With display., dry/wet nob for fx, larger tempo fader, and keylock nob.
