Clearly.... this isn't a fair comparison as these two controllers are different price points. I'm fully aware, but as I've stated before, this is a review and comparison of each of the two controllers I have and purchased with MY OWN MONEY. This is a comparison video of low-mid entry class controller versus a higher end professional controller.

Both great platforms but the Rane is tier level. It also come down to decisions and how practical it will be used. You covered it all, SB3? is nice but the FLX6 is better for more use. Great content brother. The FLX6 just needs a little more getting used to it but the Rane is where it’s at and it also come with the price.

Thanks sir! Rane is definitely the way to go if you have the budget and will be gigging with it. SB3 and or FLX is cool for bedroom practicing, maybe small gigs where XLR or 1/4 inputs aren't necessary.

Lol, I enjoyed this review. I do have the DDJ Flx6. I think the Rane one is more superior in build and input and output functions. So yeah it has the upper hand over the flx6. I'm a bedroom DJ and didn't want to shell out the extra 1000 dollars for home djing and some mobile djing here and there. Plus, I do have two turntables already. To have two turntables and a controller that acts like two turntables seemed redundant for me. I could've of gotten the DDJ 1000. Still, I think this controller has some of the same features as the DDJ 1000 and at less the cost. I just started to incorporate 4 deck mixing so four channels was a must. The guys I think you were trying to mention was Pri yon Joni. He just did a video where he connected two turntables to the flx6. I'm hoping he does a video on how he did the connection. Thanks for your honest review. I was expecting this to go a different way lol.

Great video. However, I can’t see myself keeping the FLX over the Rane one. Even if you aren’t using it at a club setting (Rane one) and you are just keeping it in a home environment, I will certainly keep the Rane one because of superior quality, a much superior sound card, more of a vinyl feel, and you can’t beat those jogwheels along with the quality you get with Rane. But, that’s just me.

yes i play at clubs and yes most use pioneer gear. What i meant in the comparison to the layout was that I'm use to using a two channel mixer with FX switches on each channel Rane or S-series Pioneer mixers, not scrolling through effects and having one for all four channels. I like simplicity and rarely use effects other than echo anyway. I clearly stated and you paraphrased my quote that, "I'm use to the layout" (Hardware not software), stating that it's MY personal preference, so what point are you trying to make?

I bought the Rane with the intent to keep it, but then I lost $2.5k in some bad trades when Ethereum dropped so decided I could save some money trying out the FLX6. I'm only using this to mix in my bedroom. I stopped doing gigs over 3 years ago and it had been 2 years since I last sold my turntables so wanted something for home. Long story short, to save some money decided to keep the FLX6 and its pretty decent except for build quality. This "comparison" was more of a two in one review and just comparing the two different price points against features. So I kept the FLX6 and returned the Rane. I plan on buying turntables at over the summer.

Just a thought if you are comparing a $1500 Raine controller to a $600 Pioneer controller seems like an unfair comparison if you are going to compare controllers maybe it should be the Raine compared to say a DDJ 1000. I honestly think that would be a more fair comparison in the end Honestlyt comparing 2 things with different pricepoints are obviously going to have glaring differences in both output and input. And seing the comment that you are comparing low to mid bs high end is not a justification if you can't afford to compare equal products then don't do a comparison then again thatis just my opinion that is like me comparing a Ford escort to a Porche. Low to mid class vs high class there is no comparison

I Should probably change the title because everyone thinks I'm comparing them as if its a fair comparison.. obviously its not a fair comparison due to the two different price points. It's not a matter of being able to afford another equally priced controller to compare it against because the point of me making this video was to do a two in one review. Me deciding if I wanted to have a $1500 or $600 control just to mix in the bedroom. Why would I spend $1000+ on a pioneer controller. I clearly stated in the video that I'm a turntable dj. If I wanted to spend that much money I would just stick with the Rane One. 🤦‍♂️
