[@richardwilliams1310]

for someone wanting Pioneer hardware running Rekordbox in standalone or controller mode, the Pioneer XDJ-700 with its good set of features, detailed touchscreen and overall compact size, this model is great value for money. Thanks for the brilliant video Kareem

[@jaysonwohnne]

thanks for a dope review. I want these now.

[@ClectaSkiMusic]

Superb video quality here dude.... Great review..

[@dj2kind939]

I'm making the brave step from Serato to Rekordbox and this helped a lot.. both before AND after the purchase. Was still surprised by the small size at first but along with the DJM-450 it all looks nice and compact..

[@RealDJblaze]

Thanks for your comment! It is a nice compact setup!

[@househeadspeakz]

I misjudge this system. I saw it used live at an event and the DJs was pleased with it. In fact, the host of the event would consider buying one. I am researching it myself. This is why I went to you guys here and watch the video. Of course, it don't have everything like the Nexus and XDJ 1000 but for the price and the experience you will have playing on CDJs, I think it maybe worth it.

[@DJDynablend]

Harry Young, because with these pro four channel mixers they have send and return into any channel as well as capability to record and send to another channel so even if you only have two cdjs you can use all four channels

[@road2professionaldj534]

Great mixer and great for progression to CDJ 2000s

[@Aesop101]

It’s not a mixer

[@TruMusica]

Nicely done. Thank you!

[@dougc2009]

Great presentation!

[@KYNOT]

Nice review! Thanks!

Nice review thanks.

Amazing video. Thank you so much

[@kareemthedream6084]

Thanks for watching!

[@djcvmusic1]

10:03 So True, and they release the hid of traktor for the nexus 2 before... they will skip some compatibility as they did with the HID of the CDJ-850 and do half of the work...

[@biker4681]

Hi, i'm just about to purchase some pioneer xdj700's. I've been hearing that serato dj will not work with these decks which has confused me. Surely if I use my rane sl2, I will be able to dj using these decks with the time code on a usb? Can you confirm this for me please?

[@RogerCimon]

Those external power supply, most of them, will make your pro audio amp humming - and you will also get static noise on primary channel - if they are plugged in an outlet that is on the same electrical line. Be aware of this!

[@luxpol88]

now they are compatible with Traktor pro 3 too.

[@julianp.4430]

is it possible to play with 2 xdj 700 + pioneer ddj sx2 and rekordbox dj?

[@Glitchkase]

Thanks 🔥😎😍😍

[@Merluso0822]

Those are nice the problem is that with the money you have to spent on a pair you can buy a XDJ-RR even for less

[@bhunjiboyy]

Is it possible to display the amount of time to the hotcues? in real time.

[@VinnyVader]

I’ve had these for several months now and love them...one thing that has been bugging me though, is there a way to wipe all the cue and loop points clean from all tracks so that they don’t appear every time I load my usb?

[@RealDJblaze]

That's a good question... I don't know how to do that honestly. Check the Serato DJ forums.

[@Gauntea]

can you set the time to count up as well as down ? really want a pair myself and found this video very informing

[@RealDJblaze]

Yes, you can change this from time elapsed to time remaining. Thanks.

[@ashleymcgovern5120]

Too many things omitted for many from last gen Pioneer tech they already own. Apart from the screen/standalone Rekordbox tech the CDJ 400 has more features (& can still midi up to Rekordbox). & Looks like it has the same type glassyish top touch capacitive jog on my Pioneer flx6 . I paid about the same for CDJ 400s in 2009. Which leaves the XDJ 1000s, which are almost the same price as cdj 2000s on the current market. Makes a solid Denon SC5000 at £200 less per unit but having more features even over XDj 1000 seem like the best deal, when it comes to the 700. Regardless of industry standards.

[@ashleymcgovern5120]

@@nt8538 Hardware wise it's all about the Denon SC range. Controller wise it's about Pioneer ATM. If you use Rekordbox software to DJ with & want to use hardware & not a controller then xdj 1000, not even 700 i'd say. Only thing sc5000 are 2 decks in one (4 decks X2 units) they make a 2 channel mixer obsolete, you can use one but you will want all 4 channels. So look for a 4 channel mixer to go with.

[@mattdrbarnard]

I have a set, they are great. And really affordable

[@JahBeatSoundSystem]

Thank you

[@Colo_skiing_ian]

Great review! I got one of these and it did not come with the base to elevate it, any idea where I can get one?

[@RealDJblaze]

Ebay would be the best bet!

[@gczueri9728]

why would you use this with serato if you can just buy a controller for 250 bucks?

[@MyIntestinesLikeFood]

Where is the beatjump function? cant find it

[@Aesop101]

anyone ever wonder is it possible with a firmware update that this unit will ever analyze on the fly?

[@stevebattle5255]

Hi, what would you recommend.. the S4mk3 or a pair of XDJ-700's. I already have a good mixer for my Tec 1200's so wouldn't need to include that in my choice. Cheers

[@RealDJblaze]

The XDJ-700 can be used with Serato DJ as well, so if that's what you want to use, then the XDJ will be the way to go. If you want an all-in-one setup for Traktor, then go with the S4. Good luck with your choice.

[@louisburg100]

I have my music on San disc usb like yours but how do I put all my usb music through record box so it will read my music when I put it into the unit .will it take my music as it is or is it only if I use a laptop I have to use recordbox ? Also if am using a non pioneer stand alone mixer with usb port will one lead into the mixer make both xdjs work as controllers or do you have to link individual xdjs to the laptop individual . About to buy these so advice would be great thanks

[@spencerburns4462]

you have to download rekord box onto your laptop and do it though there

[@bill_i_am8579]

Can u control 2 decks on rekordbox dj on a mac with just one of these units??

[@RealDJblaze]

I'm not so sure... Probably not.

[@tanthiennguyen9133]

Vielen Dank

[@rafaelreina523]

If you introduce a pen on a xdj, what about memory cues? You have to make them before on a computer with rekordbox, isn't it?

[@RealDJblaze]

You can save cues real-time but you need to analyze the track in Rekordbox on a computer first to make everything work better...

[@Rarizard98]

Relatively new bedroom DJ here. I'm using a DDJ 400 and have been setting up to 8 cues (usually 4 though). I know there are only 3 cue points on the XDJ 700 so what happens to my remaining cues when I plug in my USB? Do they disappear or do they turn into memory cues?

[@RealDJblaze]

They disappear...

[@Rarizard98]

@@RealDJblaze Thanks. Just to clarify, can I still use the first three (A,B,C)?

[@Frank11-11]

Can you control both decks from one xdj 700? If you just wanted to buy 1 or it impossible?

[@RealDJblaze]

No, you would need to buy two of these...

[@DJDynablend]

My next system two xdj700 and the djm750k so much cheaper than club spec system

[@mailwoy3348]

why get the djm750k if u only have two cdjs? get a 450 or even better the xone 23

[@JANDEVICE]

THX nice!

[@glennkinning1370]

Would you still go for the 700 in 2022 or what would you suggest for the same price tag. Great vide thanks

[@kareemthedream6084]

I am not really a CDJ/XDJ DJ so I wouldn't ever get it, but I'd get it if I didn't want to pay big money for a CDJ-2000NXS or 3000... I believe they have an MK2, but the MK2 can't be used with Serato? I'm not sure but I think that's true...

[@glennkinning1370]

[@kareemthedream6084]

[@jonram747]

nice,, very good NICE STRIP SEARCH ( most important )and Power supply is annoying

[@Qpopvr]

got a set of these recently and having terrible issues. every time i load a track the opposite deck goes into emergency loop and the usb stick crashes. tracks have been analyzed in record box. no issue with tracks that have been just put on the usb stick directly but all the ones from record box fail every time, decks are brand new, usb stick brand new, using latest record box and firmware on decks up to date, seriously thinking to send them back. not sure what to do. any tips?

[@kareemthedream6084]

Never heard of this issue. Try different computer and different USB sticks. Also try to reinstall Rekordbox on another computer, then reload the USB stick again.

[@Qpopvr]

@@kareemthedream6084 i got it to work by reformatting the drive to FAT32 and directly exporting tracks and albums after analysing them. however if i export a playlist to the usb when playing from the playlist on the xdj it constantly creates a loop error and the only way around that is to take out the usb. otherwise exporting without using playlists seems to work

[@Qpopvr]

update on that, using a sandisk ultra and no issues. seems to have been the kingston usb stick causing the problem

[@57NUPE]

The price is horrible. If they were like $300 or less, maybe but feel I got a much better deal getting a DDJ 1000 controller for the price of two of these. Many more features and functionality.

Not!!! I would not pay for this. I am sorry but I rather go for the XDJ-RX2 or the XDJ-RR to save money. You still have to purchase 2 with a mixer. It is not worth it!
