I have the deck-switching feature on my Pioneer DDJ-SR. It can be great when you're playing a set, but want to throw down some scratched samples on the 3rd channel. I use the feature a lot as a more feature-complete mix preview as well: play live on channel 1, instant-double to 3, jump forward to your planned mix position, and mix 2 and 3 in your headphones. Repeat live with 1 and 2 when you're ready. It's great for avoid clashing vocals and finding other potential issues that will get in the way of that smooth mix. I don't think I could live without that feature on a 2-deck controller.

Both of them are now also natively supported in Virtual DJ (latest early access build) if you want to be able to do even more with the units

Man, I remember those old school belt-drive Gemini BD10 deck days... Great review!

They are now also natively supported in Djay Pro for iOS 😃

Ordered this yesterday. Was firmly set on getting the DDJ 400 but due to it not being available anywhere...I opened my mind and found this! It looks the business!

I bought the FX and now I’m gonna swap it out for the platinum because I hate having to look at laptop a little more. However when my wallet is right I’ll likely just get a much better setup. Thanks for the good information 👍

Thanks for this. You mentioned something about your DJ career journey. I suggest you do for us an autobiography vid and include the DJ/tech devts you have seen and the debates around these and how these devts have shaped your career. I am saying this because today it is very easy to take the DJ craft for granted (and this teck makes us even lazy) but the DJ craft has come from far....you had to employ a lot of 'manual' skill (eg having to know pretty much all the BMP ranges of all your collection). Much love

Will beatport/beatsource be coming to the prime 4?

I own the Platinum FX, I find the jog wheel is a bit heavy for scratching. Is the Pro FX jog wheel any lighter? Or are they this heavy because of their large size?

Do you know if I'm doing something wrong or have Numark junked the 'Shift + push down the Browse dial' function for expanding crates in Serato?

Hey i heard you say in a video when you was talking about super Oem turntables you said you managed to pick up citronic turntable or turntables cheap, what model was that & are they good, do they work good & do they feel good

Hey Mojaxx, it's everyone

Unrelated question - but what stand do you have your EFX500 sat on in the background?

what you think about motorize pitch fades o controllers

Can we get a mix deck quad Pro upgrade next

Sup man, what would you recommend, the better of these two with Serato or the pioneer ddj 400? Thanks

pioneer needs to update the SX, SR and SB with a new jog design immediately

Thank you.....!!!
