The ddj-800 is one of the best controllers ever made. I upgraded from my ddj-sr2 to the 800 and loved that controller. I then upgraded to the ddj-1000 and now Rane One, but still the ddj-800 is still one of my favorite dj controllers ever! I still own it and it's in excellent condition. Thinking about selling it though lol.

I must agree.. I own mine now for 3 yrs or so.. it's an amazing controller and works amazing as a back up controller ..

I still hv more love for the sr2. More compact, the fx section was more controllable and it would would without the adapter. I sold mine and use an 800 now with vdj, but I miss the sr2

You're going to love that controller! It's a fantastic kit! I had one for a couple of weeks, before I decided to return it for a DDJ 1000. The ONLY reason I returned it for a DDJ 1000, was because I decided I wanted a 4 channel controller (and not a 2 channel controller). But the DDJ 800 is a great device!!!!

J'utilise le DDJ 800 depuis 3 ans avec Virtual DJ et j'en suis très satisfait. Il est facile d'utiliser les STEMS notamment en configurant les graves, mediums et aigus en percussions, instruments et voix. Le DDJ 800 reste un très bon contrôleur et Virtual DJ un logiciel DJ complet et aujourd'hui fiable.

Congrats on the new DJ Equipment! You forgot to tell the audience that to use it for Virtual DJ, you either have the full license for VDJ Pro or have a monthly subscription. I believe a home license for the DDJ-800 wont cut it because it's a Pro Controller and will be used for business. RecordBox license is included in the purchase of DDJ-800 though!

I started DJing at about 31years old (collecting my music library I still use today at 22). I had 2 analog turntables, and mixer with a unusually tight fader (!). Vinyl records, (the tail end of the boom) the year was 2007. My teaching lessons were looking at DJ scenes from Tunnel DVD's (no internet). I can tell you from experience, TIMING IS EVERYTHING in mixing (and let's no forget VARIETY). I use a Pioneer DDJ 800 these days and just GO OFF! The computer make doubles at the press of a button. In fact, I don't see NOBODY getting by without one. This controller is GOOD for parties, not so good for TRICKS. The Numark NS7 was great for that, but TOO HEAVY to move.

You did the exact same thing I did. I used the scroll knob and selected a song and then pushed down on it as if that's the load. I believe that's the way Numark mixers work. On the DDJ800, there's a load on Deck 1 button to the left of the knob, and a load on Deck2 button on the right of the knob. I'm also thinking of not putting my laptop in that spot, maybe move it over to the corner. One more peice of advice. Get a microphone with an on/off button, and leave the mixer mic switch to ON. Why? Because that mic switch is ridiculously close to the Deck selection switch. I was playing a song on Deck1, and went to turn the mic on and accidently switched the deck to Aux or whatever the other option is. It killed the song. DOH! luckily it was just a middle school dance. Now I have a wired mic with an on/off switch. works much better.

If the DDJ 800 doesn't work for you, you can try the Roland DJ 707m. It is designed for the mobile dj. It is much smaller and has balanced xlr as well as 4 mic inputs. Measures about 19 inches. The 800 was too big for me. I also have the SR2 which is perfect size.
