Kareem, Good job on the review bro. I am loving my DDJ. Since I've got it I've been hitting the streets with it and not really finding the time to sit down and fully understand all that it does... thanks to your video, I am more than satisfied with my purchase. Thanks again.

Got the DDJ-SX about a month ago and I can't recommend it enough. It's pretty much the best controller available ATM, and I've tried most of them (S4 not even close, NS7 not impressed, the rest are mostly toys). The amount of thought pioneer put into this controller is mind boggling... Love it.

With the S2 I was DJing in clubs within 3-4 months. Not even joking, it's really that intuitive and well-built. It has yet to break down on me (knock on wood) despite sustaining indirect beer spills on multiple occasions. Can't speak for the S4 cos I'd rather save for a DJM and CDJs but I'm told it's the S2 with more decks, which I'd imagine is ungodly awesome

I got a comparison question about the Numark 4trak and the Pioneer DDJ-SX. I want to get into scratching but I want to do it on a controller instead of vinyl. Even though the DDJ-SX has some more features than the 4Trak which unite felt better to scratch on? Also the cut in time looks like it's the same when the fader is set to its sharpest setting, but was the virtual needle on the SX's platter more helpful or comparable to the revolving light on the 4Trak?

up to 1:00 you hit the pads to turn on some FXs and used them kinda like a Bleep function, but the song picked up where it would have if nothing had been done. I am running traktor 2.6 and DJM-T1 and i would like to set up a few of my hot cue or fx to simulate that. What functions are thos pads triggering when you hit them?

Kareem, it was between this and the xdj aero and I decided to go for this one in the end!

No big venues just around 2-300 people or so.

Just had a hands on feel for the first time of the PIO-SX and I have to say man as you may know it is one very well put together unit, I liked it overall but I did find a little play in the faders. Approximatly 0.5 of play in each of the faders. It may have been the shop model wear and tear but for the machine as a whole I found that play space a little strange. Is this a common feel for pio faders?

I am impressed with the DDJ-SX with all the features it has, my only concern is its sturdyness, The unit is contructed out of durable plastic and not having a case around it seems like it would get damaged easily, The numark NS7 (2) that is due to release is a BEAST and made to last, and has "Touch" sensitive controls. How will the DDJ-SX stand up to it?

The DDJ-SX2 is the new updated version of this that has the standalone mixer option with the DVS timecode and CD option as well so you can connect CDJ's and Vinyl turntables to play back Digital tracks within Serato. The Terminal Mix 8 is tight too and I also reviewed that on the channel. Check it out as well. I would say the DDJ-SX2 has some cool new features, so I would get that over the TM8, but they both get the job done.

Yo man, I hate to ask such a generic question, but I'm thinking about selling my Technics and Pioneer DJM 600 and moving over to digital. What is your fav controller right now... price is not an issue. I've always played on the best and I want to keep it that way. I'm a breaks/house DJ... I do very little scratching. I've been looking at the DDJ-SX and the the DDJ-T1. If you only had one to play, which one? Yes, I'm a Pioneer whore, but I could be convinced to try another brand.
