I have had this controller for about 6 months now. I use it for creating mixes and just sitting down and mixing because of it ease of use. When I do a gig I usually bring the technics out with my Pioneer 900-SRT. Great controller for the money and can be used to do smaller gigs too.

This particular controller comes with Serato DJ Intro which is a basic version of Serato DJ without a lot of features. It's designed to get you started and allow you to see if this is for you. I of course purchased the full version so that I can use it with any controller or DVS system. The SB series are great for starting out in the controller world IMO. GL!

Heh, I still use this DJ controller in my home studio. I love the controller for its simplicity. I do have a Reloop Neon which I always use with it. Even after 7 years of use, I'm still happy with it. The only thing I hate about it, are the small tempo faders. I'm in the market for new gear, but I'll wait till next year. I did have a mixer and two CDJ's, but it took up way too much space in the studio. Despite its lack of features, I'm still positive of the switch to this controller. AND ... I love to use Serato.

Hi Tirth, yes the middle section of the mixer has the Cue buttons/headphones level/mix etc and that's the area where you'd control what you're hearing through your headphones, while another track could be playing live through the speakers. To connect to the speakers, you'd use the Master Out (RCA) connection from your controller to the input on the speakers :)

I used to DJ at London nightclubs, typical set up would be cdj 1000's and DJM 800 or above. Sold my decks few years ago but tempted to but a unit like this. Do these units heavily rely on using a laptop and serato? I prefer to just mix on my own without laptop, will I miss out on all the features by not using a laptop? What tempo is the default? +10? +6? I'd like to just plug this into speakers and mix without a laptop. Anyone played on a club set up and can tell me what these units are lacking in comparison? They are much much cheaper so what features will be missed vs a cdj 1000 and djm 900 (aside from effects, more channels etc)
@soundofphiladelphia3118 жыл бұрын
It is USB bus powered so you do need a laptop/pc to plug it into. You can't use the unit by itself as it is a controller and gets the music from your library in your laptop (iTunes). Although Serato is the preferred program, you can use VirtualDJ, DJay Pro (which I use), and I think Traktor can also be used but needs mapping I believe. It is very much a level entry controller (but a very good level entry controller!) and will not be anything like your Pro gear that you have used in the past.
@c1ndey148 жыл бұрын
+SoundofPhiladelphia so without a laptop, which controller can I just plug in to speakers and play? None of them or only the higher models like xdj etc? I just would like to mix on a controller, without a laptop, no latency, no lag or delays on buttons. Think the xdj looks very nice but I wasn't going to spend that for a little bedroom setup for occasional mixes etc.
@soundofphiladelphia3118 жыл бұрын
For a standalone set up is going to cost unfortunately. I did see a piece on the Denon DJ MCX8000 which seems a fairly robust bit of kit and very versatile from what I have seen. Prices can vary, I have seen one for £930 on Ebay ranging up to a grand. (Out of my price range!!) and costs more than the xdjr1. I'm not much help I'm afraid, but if you google laptop free controllers you may pick up a bargain somewhere. Good luck.
@digitaldjtips8 жыл бұрын
Definitely the Pioneer XDJ-RX is your best bet, but as you mentioned, it's a bit over budget for your home set-up - though it'll be the closest you can get to club gear without splurging on full CDJs. Here's our review of the unit: www.digitaldjtips.com/2015/05/review-pioneer-xdj-rx/

You can listen through headphones that can be plugged into the side of the controller, but it's better to get some RCA cables (they are not expensive and can be bought through EBay or any audio visual store) which when plugged into speakers give a much better sound, plus you can then use your headphones to mix.

That depends on your personal preference. Do you use Traktor or Serato DJ? Want to use Rekordbox? What's your budget? Here are out reviews of the Pioneer units to help you make an informed decision :-) www.digitaldjtips.com/2016/03/review-video-pioneer-ddj-sb2-serato-dj-rekordbox-controller/ www.digitaldjtips.com/2016/06/review-video-pioneer-dj-ddj-rb-rekordbox-dj-controller/

Hi! I hv a query.. M gonna play in a club soon.. Can I play with pioneer ddjsb2 controller? If yes, thn what are the things I need to carry alongwith my controller and lappie? Plz reply
@digitaldjtips6 жыл бұрын
You'll want to have a backup plan (a way to play music in case something happens to your set-up). Also you'll want to communicate ahead of time to the club and make sure it's okay to bring your own gear, as every venue is different. You'll also likely be plugging your controller into their house mixer, which is connected to their PA system. Bringing extra cables to output from your gear is a good idea :)

How is the free serato demo? Do you have to buy serato to use the controller to max potential?
@digitaldjtips4 жыл бұрын
It's more than fine, you do need to purchase to get the "max potential" but it's more than good enough using the Lite software as well

I have a sb2 and the right cue button(to choose which channel to listen on headphone) next to the filter knob stays on. Is there a way to fix that??
@digitaldjtips3 жыл бұрын
Weird, tough to say because it shouldn't be happening - what software are you using?

My wife gave this perfect controller as a birthday gift. But I'm just listener not a DJ :) I have downloaded Serato Intro but I could'nt see how to record my mix? Could you please tell me how can I make it? Cheers
@soundofphiladelphia3118 жыл бұрын
You need the full paid for version of Serato to record your mixes. However you can download Audacity which is a free program, which can be used to record your music.

Good to hear this. There are two options to record it. Then I can download Audacity now :) Thanks bro

does anyone know if you can hook up a monitor to this controller to mix in a dj booth
@digitaldjtips7 жыл бұрын
You just have the RCA jacks for Master Out, so you'll need to hook it up to a bigger mixer for use with anything other than one set of speakers (eg main speakers + a booth monitor)

Does anyone have a completed mapping for the SB2 with Traktor? I've tried multiple different ones but most of them are always missing something. Haven't found one with a working headphone cue yet.

We're not sure. Have you tried mapping it yourself?
