Mixer Battle: S7 vs S9 vs S11 | Pioneer DJM-S7 (Review)

[@DJFiezta]

S10 would’ve made more sense

[@BayardoRugama]

Glad I’m not going crazy, thought I was the only one.

[@DJFiezta]

@@BayardoRugama oh hey, since I got your attention, when are you making the setup review? I’m waiting to see what you have to say after trashing my logo🙂

[@DeejayPulse]

Chevrolet owns the trademark on S10 and they didn't want to call this a MK2.

[@priyonjoni]

S3, S7, S9, and S11 are all odd numbers. Just like the 707 and 909.

[@DJServe1]

@@DJFiezta what logo?

[@priyonjoni]

I work for Pioneer DJ and I can tell you that this conspiracy theory is completely false with no evidence behind it. The reason it’s called the S7 is because our Serato battle mixers have always followed odd number models. Look at all the S model DJMs. S3, S7, S9, and S11. All ODD numbers. The tradition is carried from the DJM-707 and DJM-909 which also sustained odd numbers.

[@DjTecniq]

So DJM 700, 800 don’t count then? Just battle mixers?

[@epik_beats]

Thank you !!!

[@djbis]

@@DjTecniq correct. those were not battle mixers.

[@djknowledgeablejonez]

Just picked up the S7 yesterday. Im lovin it

[@aliveentertainment4483]

Always killin it with knowledge and quality content. Keep pavin the way!

[@djxsquizit]

Im a proud owner of a S7 and the midi loop & bluetooth feature is awesome. Only rookies use a screen 😌😌

[@ambesa1]

That s7 channel faders are weak. They are soldered to the pcb board. Not a good thing.

[@lollol-hk6fv]

Hey barr! Great vid! Quite impressed what pioneer have done here. I know this is a bit farfetched but could you please consider doing a video on how you mix at weddings and various events and song selection as a guide. I would be so greatly appreciative! Hope it could help others out as well! Thank you

[@altimate19]

The screen enables a LOT of features. My favorite being the control for decks 3 & 4, needle search, nudging, and just being able to keep your eyes on the mixer instead of having Serato face.

[@dj.r2o]

I’m just here for s9 mixers for sale :). Great video and information!!! I agree with you on the filter and trim, throws me off when not on the s9.

[@ogbobbytrill]

I been on the fence about upgrading , but just did it. Great Review! Also, I used that sonidero mic function all the time on the :*( RIP

[@DannySpins]

Dope video. I appreciate the info. The breakdowns and comparison dedf helps out.

[@DjTecniq]

Na they didn’t hurt sales on the S11 cause that smooth echo is 🔥. Although the S7 is tight. I like the slim design of the S11 imo 👌🏼

[@DJCharlieB]

Nice mixer but I’ll stick with my S9.

[@DJEasybuckets]

Im happy with the S9 but im being tempted for that uppgrade tbh! Great video

[@last808]

Oh man, my S9 is just over a year old. I would have gone with the new Rane mixers if I had waited a few months (I love Rane gear). As far as the S7, it's got all the upgrades I'd want. I never use the mic much if ever on my S9. I play w/ serato + vinyl so upgraded preamps sounds good to me. MIDI features would be fun too. I wonder how the built-in effects are? I found most of the S9's built-ins to be kinda wonky (backspin, vinyl break and noise are meh). I prefer the missing built-ins from the DJM-2000. The bluetooth would be useful for non gigging situations like if we were just chillin' after hours and nobody felt like mixing, or in some weird out of commission laptop emergency. I'd jump all over this if I hadn't burned through my savings paying rent during lockdown since I've been unemployed since March. Damn you covid...

[@OgDj2024]

Are you able to go into settings with the S7 mixer, and adjust the cut in points with the cross fader, so that the sound is instantaneous as soon as you move the fader??

[@djpho]

This mixer looks really great for its affordable price.

[@dnycefromthebx4132]

I’m wondering if the s7 would be able to pair Bluetooth headphones to the Bluetooth? I’m waiting for something more simpler for headphones because we need to get rid of that wire. Good video though.

[@mighimusic]

s7 all day and night i love that thing can you compare it with rane and native mixers?

[@jerrychisholm8565]

i got the S7 and i love it

[@da8708]

This Mixer ist 💯 for Rekordbox i have Rekordbox Controller and is 💯 same

[@djstarsomatic8068]

Are you saying that you are using w rekordbox? That’s what I’m trying to figure out as I use rekordbox and am considering the mixer however wonder how much I lose by not using serato

[@djzainmukoon7248]

I haven't seen you bring out your S9 to gigs. However I did notice it a few times as your home setup. Have you ever took it out to gigs?

[@vinylselektaz6475]

Do these mixers work without laptop?

[@liquidentertaiment2532]

Crees que ya este en el horno algun nuevo controlador que sustituya al poderoso Ddj1000?

[@ambesa1]

The s7 channel faders are soldered to the pcb board. Mine broke after 10 momths of use. Had to send in for repair. Smh, should of went with s11. All three faders can be replaced easier.

[@DJNABSTV]

Awesome

[@DJServe1]

Yes!!!! 🤩🙌🏽

[@toddmann2432]

I don't know. I tried the S11. Sent it back for the Rane 70. It came down to build quality for me. Too much plastic on the pioneer for me. The S7 just doesn't wow me enough.

[@sambattle7705]

You didn't like it? I was thinking of getting it

[@djscottydoo]

tryna figure out, if you can apply fx to sampler on the s7?

[@lamumbamoody5696]

From what I read In the comments from another review, theres no independent sample fx on the s7. You would have to assign the samples to a channel to trigger the fx which kinda sucks. Lbs, the microphone echo I can do without, but I like the independent sample echo fx on the s9 that's missing on the s7.

[@djscottydoo]

@@lamumbamoody5696 true almost a deal breaker. Might be looking at the S11

[@hassandjhaboogiespin4550]

heckuva video.... Barr⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️S10 would have made more Sense, even though Realistically is just a #REVAMP... taking it Back to S9!!!! 🤔😳, down sizing on Buttons & Catering To DJ’s Who probably not into ECHO... feature, 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Round of Applause on your Reviewing Of Little -REMIXxED!!!!! Brother To the S9’ DJBARR... the Review.... MATADOR😊🤣

[@standown7738]

does the s9 sit taller? the feet look taller

[@djdavy7097]

The S9 and S7 are backwards in the thumbnail. Nice video though.

[@BayardoRugama]

Thank you I will fix it this

[@victorgonzalez4791]

Just picked the s11 today 😁🥳

[@junyah1976]

S11 FTW SIMPLY BC U GET MORE TECH AS OPPOSE TO JUST REALLY GETN BLUETOOTH OPTION IN WHICH THE LATENCY FOR BLUETOOTH IS STILL A PROBLEM

[@DeejayPulse]

This isn't for output, it's just an input for playing from your mobile so you don't need an AUX cable. Lots of DJs like to scratch with a looper app, so this makes it easy to connect.

[@gaffle-411]

The S7 has soldered-on faders!!! Welcome back to the 1990’s… 🤣

[@djjammindave]

I like the S7 but I would of love it, if it comes with the wave forms screen, no screen on the S7, but wave form in the S11, WTF !!!! I like to see where the tracks are on the screen....also, the screen, adds a futuristic ergonomics feel to the mixer. The screen makes it a more beautiful state of the art mixer. In my opinion that S7 should of have come with the same screen on the S11. Period !!

[@GodInTheWax]

If it had it would have been the same mixer. If you want a screen get a S11. lol

[@JoeL-re8pe]

70> S7 S11>72

[@jackzimmerman5025]

Barr, are you going to use this mixer for your gigs? great vid!

[@djace5191]

Pioneer mixers look like cool upgrades but Love my Rane 72/twelves. Gonna definitely purchase the Rane One as my more portable setup!

[@djstreamtv]

Could they have named it s7 to leave room for a s9mk2? Yes RANE is giving Pioneer a run for their money but that Reloop Elite is also competitively priced.

[@BayardoRugama]

Agreed

[@DJ_S-3-R-G]

I didn't like Reloop. I tried it out and both units I got were either defective or the crossfaders were just not calibrated right. There was always something wrong with the upfaders or the crossfader. So I sent em back. I want a 70 and maybe the RANE One.

[@FlipTheCatOfficial]

You barely made a comparison to the S11 lol

[@DJEasybuckets]

wasnt much to compare lol

[@daunit5493]

YES!!!! S7 Coming my way

[@djmelleonkingixl4657]

S11 has 2 more virtual decks tho... that’s like another mixer in another mixer... 🧐

[@djwobblesosa6434]

i love sx3 and sz2,ddj 1000,1000srt,rz,ddj flx6 i love it

[@Ziggy_v2]

The S7 looks nice - however my understanding is that the S11 has a much better soundcard. Similar to the 900nsx2

[@DjTecniq]

Identical soundcard from what I’m hearing

[@DeejayPulse]

The S7 audio is slightly better than that of the S9; with better phono pre-amps! But the S11 is far superior.

[@Ziggy_v2]

@@DjTecniq according to Crossfader's review kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6Tci6KMrb-tjMk the S7 sounds really good but not as good as the S11

[@TimeofourlivesAu]

No match for the Rane 70.

[@DJNEDROY]

All these guys Talking bout effects bla bla bla. calm down bro

[@djcruz99]

The reason they cut $100 off is when you’ve been building something for so long you have efficiency in manufacturing. component Costs also come down. I don’t think that pioneer is going to use lower quality faders because this is still a battle mixer and you’re still paying a premium for that level mixer.

[@BayardoRugama]

Yeah, but you don’t think it’s a little odd that they would leave money on the table? They could have priced it at $1500 and people would have paid.

[@fedscame]

no its a downgrade ill tell you why. For the 100. less you lose sampler fx and aux fx you get worse upfaders. they changed the fx setup. Who cares about the performance pad modes when ive had that since day 1 including the split pads.. where do you think they got the idea from.. its from dj haveboard. The also made the autolooo buttons smaller and chnaged the whole cue system they also made the line switch a dip switch instead of a toggle.

[@DjTecniq]

@@fedscame it’s got Bluetooth bruh...

[@DeejayPulse]

@@fedscame As I mentioned on another video, this product being $100 less does not mean it's a lower quality product than the S9. There's a lot more in this because the technology is paid for and there is a larger gap between it and the S11.

[@arlando868]

Ur late man

[@BayardoRugama]

I uploaded the video 10 days ago? 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@adrianespinoza2224]

barrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!

[@djredz784]

Lol wkw+waiting bbqg f

[@P4boot]

The S7 name definitely threw me off. I'm a controller guy anyway, so I'm waiting for their new controller!

[@junyah1976]

PIONEER NEW CONTROLLER IS ALREADY OUT DDJ-FLX6
