Nice review ever

[@djkit]

Glad you enjoyed it! Don't forget to sub for more!

For how young I am, I actually began on turntables, so all the controls were in the center. When I had the SB3 at first, it was just really awkward for me to use. But once I got the REV1, using these kinds of controllers felt 1000% better. Also I think that Trans mode was also usable in Lite on the SB3 so you might be a pad mode off for the SB3.

[@djkit]

Thanks for this comment! Sounds like you're the exact clientele the REV1 is aimed at!

[@felipebaez3512]

ive had my sb3 for a little while but i saw how much the price jumped after it was discontinued so now im considering selling it and replacing with the rev1. does the rev 1 have the option to change the jog wheels from "vinyl" to "nudge" like the sb3??

[@dop5]

Hi, does the rev work with djay Pro ai? I mean, with the seperation function? (Corresponding app/iOS required). Greetings from Munich

[@djkit]

Hi! Yes it does! In fact, we have a video coming showcasing this, so make sure you sub so you don't miss it!

Wanna get one for my son at 18 first controller

[@bzmacd]

i wish the pads on the rev1 were as large as sb3.. how would this be done? no clue lmao. the other tradeoffs seem worth it though

[@djdrasticgh2158]

Please but can u do live streaming with mic 🎤 on sb3 or u need rev, if u hv the new version 2.62 serato pro

[@djkit]

You can’t live stream through the USB on the SB3!

[@kerrybrathwaite8478]

Hwy good day i baught my rev1 but the right jog wheel is slipping can someone help me please

[@djkit]

You need to speak to the retailer that you purchased it from, it should still be under warranty if it's faulty!

[@noegdiazify]

Can the rev1 be used with virtual dj?

[@djkit]

Yes, it has been MIDI mapped to work with VDJ!

[@jaxxinatormusic]

Can I record my mixes with sb3 x serato dj pro?

[@djkit]

Yes you can! Recording your mixes is a feature of Serato DJ Pro, it doesn't matter which Serato controller you're using!

[@jaxxinatormusic]

@@djkit cool! thanks for the information 🙏

[@dimitristsaki8294]

The question is rev 1 pioneer or inpulse 500?

[@djkit]

That's a good question! Perhaps a video is needed?
