THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE.... OK CDJs are 3 times as expensive and take up 3 times as much space. It's just a dick comparison. sorry but that's the truth

@@cyberinstinction Well, it’s not about ‘penis size,’ but more about personal preference and workflow. Standalone players and a mixer offer a different experience compared to a controller with a laptop, especially in terms of feel, layout, and being less reliant on a computer. Plus, higher-end DJ mixers often have built-in soundcards of much better quality, which can make a big difference in sound clarity and overall performance. In the end, it’s all about what works best for you and your style of mixing. But hey, if someone wants to flex with their gear, let them, right?

Jog adjust: as a dj that is now transitioning from controllers to CDJs I didn't understand why the sensibility of the jogwheel was so different, now it makes sense... It's emulating vinyls! Thanks mate

That tip about not relying on performance features on controllers was my favorite! I had been thinking I was underutilizing my controller cause I wasn’t using all the different features but this makes me feel more confident that what I’m learning will be easier to transfer over whenever I end up upgrading

Despite all the performance features available, the key to any good DJ set has been and always will be music selection and smooth transition between tracks. If you focus most on that the performance features become just a little fun extra to use occasionally

@@originalrockhead i would fundamentally disagree, taking stems as an example, when slamming multiple riddim tracks together sometimes the drums clash but the leads dont, so to get a good double you have to remove the drum stem from the track. if cdjs cant do this they are automatically inferior in my opinion, theres no reason they cant incorporate these features into the newer models, pioneer/alpha theta are just slow dripping features into their products that denon has had at a lower price for longer. the sc6000 (denons newest) is a standalone that has almost all the same functionality as their controllers. an sc6000 can play two tracks at once, something that seems like a no brainer to incorporate in 2025. if you go the cdj route and want to transition from a double to another double its going to cost you 10k for new gear, without the mixer. my mc7000 was $700 with a flight case. what are we doing lol the sc6000 is half the price of a new cdj and has more functionality and less problems. heres a copy pasta from a reddit post asking why go the denon route when cdjs are the club standard: "I have sc6000s, x1850 and a prime 2. When I have to play on cdjs I just suffer through the rekordbox stuff and deal with it Usually I try to just bring my own gear though whenever possible because there's so many things on Pioneer that now seem really counter intuitive (no exfat format on nxs2s, so many file types not supported, stupid locations of some buttons etc) Some people moan about engine software but I find it's analysis is on a par with rekordbox and for me is bug free and a hell of a lot faster to export, especially as I have 500gb ssds installed in the decks Then there is engine lighting/soundswitch and now the nanoleaf integration. This allows me to push to a completely new level for both mobile gigs and at my local club. Out of all the lighting software I have used it gives the best results by a country mile. I've been gigging weekly for 18 months with this gear now and it has been absolutely flawless" in my humble opinion, not just cdjs, but all pioneer/alpha theta products are a rip off. innovative features seem to be gatekept so that they can milk more money from you for the new product with features that denon has had for years at a lower price. i mean making sure that you need 4 cdjs to actually mix 4 tracks is absurd. everyone complains about these quirks and troubles with cdjs and how inconvenient they are, it seems like a no brainer for the industry standard to change, especially if its cheaper and has more functionality. crazy to me that anyone would give this company more money lmao its literally the same marketing strategy that apple uses, think about how theyre getting hype on features android users have had for years lololol

I hear you, that's great advice. I spend more time on loop tightening, looping, etc. now, as opposed to doing tricks with slip rolls, I do a lot of pad work also. I realised that a few months back. I've got a PioneerXDJ-XZ. I'm trying to level up to a 4 deck setup. Costs a fortune. I want 3 CDJ 3000's & a Sequencer. I own an RMX 1000. I'll get there one day 💯

My favorite tip was Link Cable, my dream always is to play on CDJ's and actually I'm restarting with the FLX4 after almost 20 years I started as DJ, I didn't how it was making it possible the connection between all CDJ's and the Mixer. It shows how far the technolgy has reached to help us to perform in our sets.

Jamie, thank You so much for showing these differences to people, but What I can recommend You as a people who Has never had opportunity to Play on CDJ's please be aware od Your level of skills and then nothing will surprise You when You start on CDJ's. I remember my first gig playing out of CDJ's, I was so stressed of using them. One of the DJ's who was playing after me said " What are You afraid of? And I replied "everything" . He said one thing to me " this is the same equipment as You've got at home, but bigger " with This attitude i felt more confident. I played quite nice gig and from this moment I finally felt that there is nothing to worry about.

10:11 To be honest, I just started mixing on a DDJ SR controller that I bought second-hand a while ago. I only touched it once back then because I wasn’t really motivated. But for the past two weeks, I’ve been practicing every day for 2-3 hours. Last Saturday, I had the chance to play on my friend’s Nexus 2000 Pro setup, and it felt absolutely amazing. I never realized how the jog adjustment worked the way you explained it’s such a great tip, so thank you for that!

My favorite tip was about the difference in streaming integration between DJ controllers and CDJs. I didn't realize that you can't directly put music from a streaming service like SoundCloud onto a USB and use it with CDJs. This is such an important point because it shows how CDJs are still primarily geared towards offline music management, whereas controllers offer more flexibility with streaming. It's a good reminder to always have a solid offline library ready, and to know the strengths and limitations of the equipment you're using. Great insight!

def the performance features. So I recently started learning how to dj and bought my first controller and I was so interested in all the features that this one haves, but eventually I got invited to one of my friends birthday party and she had all this cdj set up and I was blow minded because it was totally different of what my controller is. I kinda investigated the whole set up and it was difficult to understand but fun to explore. After the party i got home and I tried to do research on the differences between the controller and de cdjs but i was not able to find something that cleared my questions. So thank you for this video, it was very helpful and clear.

my favorite tip was the link cable and the streaming integration because now I see now I can get set up in the most quickest way

The link cable was definetely imformative and also the jog wheel adjustment between controller and cd djs

My favorite tip was not to rely on performance effects. I use a DDJ 1000 and have tons of features that I do not use. I think it makes sense to stick with the basics to ease the transition into CDJs. Thanks!

My favorite tip was when you said not to get too attached to the features you have in your controllers as they are not always available on CDJ's. I got a lil scared about the first one tho, just gonna have to practice harder I guess. Great video guys!

Honestly as someone who uses a fair bit of streaming integration on my FLX4 this was pretty helpful for me to remember how much tougher it will be doing this on a CDJ. Definitely gonna start downloading more music for the future leading up to my first CDJ gig haha

Just wanted to say I love these videos so informative and learning. So much from them my favourite tip was jog adjustment never even thought about that, something so small but can make all the difference when using different equipment I will definitely be incorporating that when using my controller from now on so when I move over to cdjs I will be used to moving the jog wheels 🙂

My fav was the beat matching in the jog wheel the difference between a controller and CDJs. Explains A LOT !

Definitely jog adjust. puts into context and provides explanation as well! Cool to think back to the roots of DJing- nice when things like that crop up.

Favourite was the Fx Channel Setup! Eye opener and nobody else talks about this. Could really ruin your night!

My favourite tip is the Jog Adjust! Threw me for a big confusion the first time I used CDJs when I was used to my FLX4!

FAV TIP: actually I'm a beginner and I learned a lot of basic condensed stuff just from watching the tips 😆! Well done!

Great tip about the beat effects, tap, timing, auto etc in the FX Channel Set-Up section! Those are features where the reason why something is blinking or flashing on a CDJ may not be abundantly clear. Explaining not only how this works, but also, how to fix and adjust effects manually based on BPMs would have been so tedious to determine on my own!

For me, the thing with the performance pads is really important. I am using them a lot and I should also try to perform from time to time without them. Thx for sharing and I would be happy to get your courses.
