After watching MANY comparison videos, and reading many articles (and having a short stint with a DJ2GO2 controller) My personal choice has swung to the Mixtrack Platinum FX with the DDJ400 only a cats whisker behind.... I am EXTREMELY new to DJing to the point that I am only just picking the Numark up tomorrow, and have only had the DJ2GO2 for a week of quite frankly poor 'hacking' at an attempt to mix (purely my fault and of no fault to the controller)... do I expect the Mixtrack to magically make me better?

I think it's important to keep in mind what kind of music you think you'll be mixing most. For example, as someone who mixes mostly dubstep, riddim, bass house and dnb scratching isn't as important to me as it would be for someone mixing hip-hop. That said, the platinum FX is was more enjoyable for me to use than my SB3 was. However, I do think it's important to mention that another downside to the Platinum FX is that it only allows you to have one effect active at a time (you can still use it on both decks though) Also, it doesn't have a beat jump setting for the pads by default like some other controllers do (pretty sure the ddj-400 has that) which is a really good feature to have when you're doing improv sets in case you miss a cue point and need to get back quickly without messing up the music.

I have had my eye on an SR2 for a while now, as a possible smaller solution to my current setup, which is a Denon MC7000 with some other gear, in a large and heavy flight case. It looks to be a great controller option, especially for a new DJ. If you know your interest level is high, and you're willing and able to step up to a more mid-level price point, I would say the SR2 is definitely a good option to put on your short list. The MC7000 is on closeput at many places right now for a great price as well. If you're open to other than Serato, you could also look into the DDJ-800 unit, OR, check out Carlo's video on the Inpulse 500, which is for Serato/Djuiced... it is one I am looking into as well to recommend for a friend...

Hey! Thank you again for the killer review. I have the 400, and I must say your descriptions about the ups and downs are exactly spot on, and especially about the jog wheels. Anyway, I know someone had asked you they were looking to upgrade into the Numark Mixtrack Platinum FX, but you gave them a tip to go for the DDJ-800. If you don’t mind me asking, why besides the $100 drop on the 800? I was looking into the DDJ 800 as well, but I see that SoundCloud still got some ground to catch up in their music catalogue, and I wish Rekordbox had made an attempt to lure Spotify or at least Tidal. Do you think maybe in the near future Tidal will make it to Rekordbox? Also, I been using my iPhone to use my DDJ 400. What is a good entry level laptop and cheap that I can possibly use the DDJ 800 or at least the DDJ 400 that I do have so I can get familiarize with the DDJ 400? Sorry for these many questions, but just intrigue. And to anyone considering the DDJ 400, it’s a great controller. Thanks again 🔥

No doubt that ddj 400 has this good features and makes the newbies comfortable of using it, but when it comes to the sound quality that they produce I would rather choose NI over the other 3 choices. (correct me if I'm wrong with this but that's what I've observed after jumping from one product to another.)

Which do you think is better for EDM DJing? Serato or Reckordbox?

Either is good! Just depends on your preferences.

No. 1 for DDJ-400 for sure. I am not ashamed for using it in gigs even though I have more expensive DJ equipment at home. It is just light, portable, and convenient to use. I am too old to be hauling stuff. At the end of the day, my mixes and scratches do not sound better with more expensive gear as I try to use FXs as sparingly as possible.
@djcarlo2 жыл бұрын
THIS! I honestly don't mind bringing controllers to gigs where they can't provide CDJs/Turntables because I don't have the time (or manpower) to lug around a million cables and run the risk of having my mixer die via spilled water from a rowdy guest. If you've got the skills, you'll be able to get things to run just right!

The winner in value for the money is numark. Only brand that gives jog displays for that price range. The platters win also in size and the new fx switches is a smart addition. Plus the this controller is not limited to just 2 decks.
@MaxRMemes4 жыл бұрын
I currently have the DDJ 400 and have been using it for a few months and absolutely love it. However, recently the Numark Mixtrack Platinum DJ Controller caught my eye due to it bigger tempo faders and heavier jogwheels. Would MIDI mapping be worth doing on the Numark to make it work with Rekordbox??
@Yuvalchetrit Жыл бұрын
Do I need to choose a deck based on what music genre I want to focus on? If so then what should I pick for house/techno

Tbh, any of these will do for house/techno! It all boils down to budget and preference from there :)

Hi Carlo thanks for all the vids you made it’s awsome you made me back to DJ !!! I’m so confuse now help me please. Just came back to DJing during quarantine after a 10 years break. I buyed a DJ2GO2 to start using Serato lite and I want to upgrade soon. Until few days my heart went to the SB3 + Serato Pro. But this Numark came and it looks great : the biggest Jog Wheels with screen. The FX pad looks fun too. And the overall quality looks really good. So I was like OMG that’s the one !!! Then I watch this !!! I want a controller I can scratch but it’s not my primary goal. I’m more live mix and mixtape maker (with few scratch sometime) using ableton link. Should I buy the Numark or a SB3 ?
