When I was in 10th grade in highschool of 2012,I was a dubstep obsessed teenager and my dad a pionist musician. We didn't see eye to eye but respected music enough to buy me this exact console in gold for Christmas and to this day I still have it. Everything works still and I'm still greatful.

The SX was my first dive into to the digital controller world after spinning vinyl on Technics for over 20 years. I absolutely loved it. Now I’m rocking the DDJ 1000 with Rekordbox DJ 6. Absolute beast of a controller and love the new cloud sync feature on Rekordbox. This is the best time ever to be a DJ. Such amazing and functional technology. Thanks for the great history lesson video!!!

For months, I’ve been looking into finding a controller that does both Serato & DJay Pro, the latter with my iPad. I tried a few of them, and I’ve settled on a used SX2. I owned an SX3, but never really used it enough and I sold it off. Me and my DJ crew mainly use Serato, but we use my DJM-29 and the controller never left the house! But I’m really enamored by the function and features of Djay Pro via my iPad. I tried a few other controllers....the Denon MC4000, the Traktor Kontrol S2 MK3, etc. But again, I’m settling on the SX2. Asides from the Serato and Djay Pro iPad support, it also supports Rekordbox if I need it, I can attach my turntables to it, and I dig that both Pitch N Time and Flip are included in addition to Serato Pro with hardware unlocked. So much there, so much value. Thanks for the overview!

Own an SX3. Thought about going to the to the SRT but the lack of access to the Serato effects held me back. I think I'll be quite happy wit the SX3 for a while. It is my first controller. If the SRT gets a firmware update so it can use the Serato effects then I'll probably upgrade.....probably. But I'm pretty happy as is. Great video. Loved learning about this very important controller's history.

The DDJ SX is literally The Controller, is what redefined what playing with a laptop means. Made the jump almost 7 years ago, throwing my cdjs out and bringing a Gold SX in, and never regretted it once. Still goin strong to this day. Now it's probably time to switch to another controller that has changed everything, The DDJ 1000, that brought club layout to The DDJ series.

Bought one w/ pddessey road case for $700 10 urs ago. I still heavily use my ddj sx for all my mobile gigs. I've been doing at least 3-4 shows a week for 10 years and this controller performs beautifully with no issues. One of the main reasons I also love it is because it is compatible with both serato and rekordbox w/ Subscription. Everytime I look up a new controller to buy, I realize I have everything I need in this unit and don't need the excess. However as a fulltime club dj, I think my next purchase will be something lime the rx3 which is closer to the relordbox layout on cdjs at venues. However, I doubt thats a piece I would tale to my mobile gigs just because of long term wear and tear and potential durability issues. The workhorse is the sx.

I began DJing in 2016, and my first controller was the Pioneer DDJ-SX2. Besides needing to replace the touch component in the right jog wheel twice, it still works very well to this day. I’m hoping to be able to use this controller for at least another two years.

I was interested in the Roland dj 505 but have read about countless issues with Roland controllers. Thanks for any insight.

@@policeboy1288 (Sorry to jump in, but hope you are open to my suggestion) The SX is definitely epic and explained perfectly by Crossfader. If you are between an SX and a 1000, then i would say go for the SX2 (unless you have dj'ed with turntables and like that feel, then go with the 1000) The SX2 is still the best overall controller (till this day June 2020) SX2 HAS: Same pro format as this epic SX + Plus option for DVS + Multi color pads to put different music CUE points. The SX only has one color pads. SX2 HAS: better LOOP button bars (instead of small circle buttons like in the 1000) + less clutter in the center of the jog wheel + 3 on/off Serato effect knobs for each of the jog wheels (located above the jog wheels) + MOST importantly** a skip touch bar to move around a song quickly, the 1000 doesn't. THE 1000 has two cool advantages, but i wouldn't sell my SX2 for them. 1-Bigger jog wheels (good for turntablists)-they are pressure sensitive instead of being touch sensitive 2-It's a newer product, that's basically it. The other features on it are not that important (at least for getting better at dj mixing). BTW: I also have Technics 1200s, an S9 mixer and two Rane 12s, so I've looked, my SX2 has done many concerts and clubs, back since 2015. Also, whatever you decide, always invest in a case/bag for it. Hope that helps. -MB

Nothing against Pioneer they make great gear but the reason the SX controller "changed it all" was MAINLY because of the Pioneer branding. Some of those club/pro features you mentioned that "paved the way..." were already on older controllers. My first controller was a Numark NS6 and it had a mostly metal build (not just the faceplate), strip search bar, dual mics, Phono inputs, same outputs as the SX. If that same pioneer controller was released as the Denon SX or Numark SX it would not have had the same success. Again, not hating on pioneer just calling as I saw it. Im glad the SX helped change how folks viewed controllers because after 20+ years I was done lugging around turntables.

That's the reason I held off. The SRT beat effects can only be used one at a time, unlike the Serato effects which could be combined together. But you get MORE effects on the SRT than with Serato. Really, I think they are BOTH fine. It might take a little getting used to for each of them. I don't think you can go wrong with either the SX3 or the SRT. A firmware update could add more Serato effects. Time will tell. Cheers!

Hey, I have an almost brand new SX2 believe it or not, what is the best software to use with it? Traktor, VDJ or Serato ?

I have a question: I play a track and it's a new modern song, and the meter shows 2 bars on the deck, and the audio has to be pushed over to the 3 O'clock to make it loud enough... Funny enough, an old track which is very low on audio, shows RED and I have to tone it down to 9 O'clock to get it to the green zone! I had Denon MCX8000 and also Numark NSFX4 and this issue is not on any of them. I also analyze my tracks using Platinum Notes and ensuring the quality is good and balanced before adding them to the DJ library. Any ideas or suggestions? I factory reset everything including my PC and software, got the best quality track from the authorized sources and it should be cool to play without issue.

I originally started DJing on Turntables with records (before Serato). But, The 1st controller I bought (used) was a SX. Then I started having issues with it, at that point the SX3 had just came out and I bought that one. The only issue I have, is that for some reason, the left up and down channel (for the left deck) of both my controllers gave me the same issue. When I move the fader all the way up, sometimes it doesn't give the full output. I need to wiggle it a bit. The same thing happened to one of my DJ friends with the SX2. I'm curious if anyone else had issues with this, or if its a common issue with the different SX models?

Pioneer DDJ RX only compatible with kekordbox and not serato why ? It works abit with virtual dj , but your force to buy an subscription 😢 so I got all the apps, but prefer serato but so use also pioneer SR controller, also ddj RX is good for turntables etc , will serato change its software so u can use this controller or not ?😢

Anyone know if you can get a tiny (ultra-short throw) crossfader replacement for the DDJ-SX? For cutting/scratching?

Great video as always everyone at Crossfader, keep the great content coming 👍🏻 I’ve had the exact same controller from new, absolutely loved it till the day it started showing a fault with right hand jog wheel, it is unresponsive when I go to touch the top of jog wheel or when I go to scratch! Anyone know of a fix? I’ve retired it for now but would love to keep it going if I could get it fixed, it’s in top condition.

Being capacitive, there are little earth wires that connect to the underside of the platter. I would image the fault lies there, take it to a Pioneer repair centre and get it back on the go! Shouldn't be an expensive fix.

Just broke my SB after 4 years of work and i’m looking at getting this second hand, is it still worth it in today’s environment of controllers? note that i’m still a student and my budget is tight but i found one that goes at a very solid price

Still, a very good controller. Gives you all the functionality you need, just feels premium and can take an absolute beating. You do have the software license for Serato DJ if you had the SB, right?

We'd agree that the SX is a fantastic choice, just make sure the controller is fully working. Check the cue buttons, crossfader and upfaders :)

@moctezumaleon same here 👍 IMO, the Best controller so far, overall, has the same format as this epic SX, + Plus option for DVS + Multi color pads. The SX3 fell off as an upgrade because of the bugs it had, many returns per Guitar Store sellers

@@mikebeats7448 Maybe bugs early on but the SX3s seem to be well received these days. I always avoid the first production runs of just about anything. I'm an early adopter but I don't want to be a consumer "tester". Another reason for me to wait on the SRT too.
