Pioneer Ddj Sx Serato Dj Controller Review

The Pioneer DDJ SX fits great! Enough room for your hard drive and cables.

Looks great with Pioneer DDJ_SX. Build quality is superb. It does add some weight, you'll get used to because it is not much. Overall a great product to protect your investment in DJ equipment whether you are flying or not.

Easy to use DJ controller. Offers so many features and free upgrade to Serato DJ Pro.

I recently embarked on a quest to find the perfect DJ controller, and my journey led me to the Pioneer DDJ-REV5, which I purchased from B&H Photo. From the moment I unboxed it, I felt like a kid on Christmas morning. The sleek design and intuitive layout immediately caught my eye. The sound quality is phenomenal, making every session feel like a live performance. The responsiveness of the jog wheels and the precision of the controls gave me an unprecedented level of creativity and control. B&H Photo played a crucial role in this story. Their customer service was impeccable, guiding me through my purchase with patience and expertise. The equipment was in stock and ready to go, so I didn't have to wait long to start using it. The Pioneer DDJ-REV5 has transformed my DJing, turning my sets into captivating experiences. B&H Photo made this journey unforgettable with their exceptional service. If you’re in the market for top-notch DJ equipment and stellar customer support, look no further.

I can say enough about this controller. It's smooth and easy to use. I'm upgrading from a DDJ-sx2 and couldn't be happier. Pioneer wins again with this one.

I have had many controllers in the past, this is the best one for me by far! Most recently coming from a Pioneer DDJ 1000SRT and a DDJ Rev 5. With the new Rev 7 firmware and Serato updates, the Rev 7 essentially does everything the Rev 5 does and more, and offers a lot more in hardware capabilities and functionality! The pads, fx levers, faders, and buttons all feel so much better and more solid than on the Rev 5. There is definitely an adjustment to the spinning platters coming from so many years on static jog wheels, and no Cue button, but it's so much more fun and you can quickly get used to it. The package deal is absolutely amazing! Just getting the decksaver included was enough, but to also get a power strip (could always use an extra one ), a pair of headphones (not great ones, but useful), and a laptop stand, it was completely worth it. Love this controller. I have owned and played on many controllers dating back to the original controller, the Pioneer DDJ S1, to the SX, SX2, SZ, Numark Mixtracks, Roland 505, 1000SRT, Rev 5...this feels the absolute best for my workflow, it will be a while before I feel the need to switch from the Rev 7.

I had to options; Traktor S4 or DDJ-1000. I don't regret buying this DJ Controller. It has all I need and more. It feels well built, and I have all the necessary tools. It is very compact compared to the DDJ-1000. If you choose this board, you won't regret it.

There is not much to say about this controller other than Pioneer DJ nailed it! As a vinyl DJ on turntables for over 35 years, this is the closest I've come across to using traditional vinyl on a portable controller. Coupled with the great mixer section, there is not much (if anything) that I would change. Definitely worth the buy. Also... the $100 upgrade with the flight case is a no-brainer. The case is built like a tank. Honestly, it may even be too large and robust. Unless you're going to use it for frequent gigging.

Using it with my Pioneer controller, no problem....

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Connected it to my vintage Pioneer SX-650, works flawlessly and sounds great.
