I can always count on your approval. Got the Pro FX the other day because I thought the platinum jog wheels were heavier but after trying both it wasn't much of a difference. Returned it and got the platinum fx instead. They are heavy but not that bad imo. The jog screens are great and much more useful than those marks on the Pro Fx and can be used to do simple juggles. If anybody is on the fence, get the Platinum not the Pro

People buy 250$ controller and call cons and gripes because they don’t get SRT features. The companies want you to upgrade, so they will deliberately give less.
@AveMcree4 жыл бұрын
You want to be that guy ehhhh... Ok let's talk about it. For starters, people don't like the SRT because it's a 4 channel controller! Not every DJ like 4 track controllers but they enjoy the jog wheels.. People don't like the SR because it does have the jog wheel with the display. So what does Pioneer release? A damn 2 channel controller w/ a display for REKORDBOX!! The Pioneer DJ DDJ-800 isn't what people wanted... Not to mention, This controller fit's in a bag.

Yeah, something so basic as that little notch on the center of the pitch controls should had been standard. I tried putting a thin slice of tape where the notch should be to create friction, but the pitch control slider is too heavy to notice the resistance. And yeah, the platters are too heavy for any serious scratching. But for all the positives, I think this is a great deal for the price.

Would the “heavy jog wheels” be something that would affect someone who has never use this device before?? 🤔 Also, I noticed on a lot of these DJ controllers, the Jog wheels don’t spin when the music is playing or when a DJ is scratching! Why is that?? Is that standard, or is that a function you can turn on and off?
@DeeJayAARonYT4 жыл бұрын
Cool lil controller. You get a lot for what it’s priced at. But what kills me is why this doesn’t have more audio outputs? Even the first Native Instruments Traktor Control S4 has all the outputs that a DJ could want... and that came out 10 years ago. Comparing it to pioneer gear, it just seems like a slightly upgraded DDJ SR & a slightly downgraded DDJ SX in terms of everything else except audio out

Aaron Hall the S4 cost way more (it was $700 brand new). I/O is hardly an issue for me unless we’re talking about the mic jack. It sounds good but doesn’t link to the effects.

@contrast2137 Жыл бұрын
It really depends on how they feel to you. Heavier jog wheels can be better for your beat matching because they are less likely to go too far ahead of the song you're trying to mix. Lighter jog wheels are preferred for their ability to scratch and manually applying a backspin on a track.

Yes my question is is badass numark because I may have him moving controllers movie on other cities I've been using for the rest of my life is good to know to mix that because harder when you learning you pull your beats very great and that's why you became more better DJ when you use numark not like the pioneer or the other track their easy that's idg play concerts or r&b concerts do you know why because it being not using the right controller to mix that's when they make money why because it's easy to control the pioneer is not doing nothing either that's why I've been going to concert they or fake most DJ they don't know how use a real controller that's why your house. He's going to concert I meet a lot of DJs are recording music they're not doing mixing😂😂
