Its great that I got the 400 like 3 years ago and abandoned it in my room after 4 months, now I finally got the interest back and start praticing on that bad boy again. Knowing that the the 400 could only be found on ebay with this price is such a relief for me.

I only Dj on twitch but I personally love the modern aesthetic, touch, and feel of the flx4. I find it does all I need it to do, although I do miss the reloop button from the ddj400 that goes back to your previous set loop. Also for some reason I'm unable to set FX to master/both decks, just one at a time even at the 1&2 switch. Not sure if that's a bug or not

As a sound guy, promoter and a long history of djing, feel that the twitch has extremely low output? Anytime a performer shows up with one, it never sounds good no matter how much I boost it. I actually haven't seen one in a while. For my events, I stopped booking people that used any controller that is USB powered

DDJ-400 + XONE K2, both with solid USB-B connectors! A portable setup that with a custom mapping, allow 4-decks control with full FX-bus controls. With the ability to layer (up to) 3 FX's on the 2 FX buses and independently assign them to a deck, something you can't do with more expensive DJM hardware setup.

I love my FLX4 but Pioneer really need to release some firmware updates ASAP. My play/pause buttons stop working constantly, and even my shift + beat sync button (I have it custom mapped to set the beginning of the beat grid) stopped working once. This is all using DJay Pro, which is not gig ready by any means, but it's the controller's issue because my DDJ-200 worked flawlessly with DJay Pro. Still think the FLX-4 is the best because it supports Serato which will have stems like DJay Pro soon. Stems in a gig ready software like Serato is a game changer for hobbyist/small party DJs like me.

Are there any problems with sound when using ddj in a club? CDJ's sound output is bigger than DDJ's, so I know that only CDJ's are used in clubs. Is this correct?
@djcarlo
@djcarlo Жыл бұрын
It depends on the speakers and the outputs! Club grade mixers usually use XLR or PL cables (which only one controller here in this stack have), but I've never really had any real issues with using controllers like this in a club in terms of output

I have never had a problem with the type c but the only problen i find the flx4 doesn't have any drivers which is anoying but it fine i guess would be bettet if the flx4 had booth rca outputs like the flx 6

I've yet to encounter driver issues with the FLX4, but I do wish that it did have a booth out. Controllers in that range usually don't though, but one can dream haha

Hi, i could get the DJ 400 for around 250 Euros in used conditon (but really good almost new conditionn) The FLX4 for 301 Euros (new) im a total beginner would the new features of the FLX4 Help or is that just a gimmick that isnt needed? i also like the desing of the DJ400 more looks more premium to me
@djcarlo
@djcarlo Жыл бұрын
I'd honestly go for the 400, but given that the FLX4 has a ton of upgrades, it might suit you better since you're just starting out

FLX4 or Hercules T7
@djcarlo
@djcarlo 4 ай бұрын
You can't really compare the 2 as they have somewhat different functions and features. I'd say T7 if you like scratching, and the FLX4 for more straight mixing

Go for the stand-alone controllers with center touch screen instead of using a remote laptop or screen to visualize the waves and to line-up the tracks. Nothing beats having your audience directly above the screen. The RX3 at $2000 is still cheaper than 2 CDJ500's and a DJM500. Still cheaper than a RodecMX180 + 2 SL12000 turntables. Equipment costs money. XLR outputs are crucial. Stop buying that entry stuff and commit to real gear. We've all had belt-drive turntables blow it's fuse from scratching. we've all had open headphones with copper cables. Buy a Sennheiser HD25pro. Buy some real equipment. Seriously.

What does it mean that the flx 4 comes with rekordbox and serato lite. (I know that that are programs for music) but is the flx 4 just compatible with both and the other not with rekordbox.

Only specific controllers work with Rekordbox, and the FLX4 just happens to work with both Serato and Rekordbox :)
