Bought this so I could do a Sock Hop for our HOA's Social Committee. It's easy to set up and is immediately recognized by my PC laptop and the DJ software that I am using. Serato DJ Lite is included with this controller. However, I am using Mixxx DJ software and it works very well with this controller. The party lights only work with the Serato software if you want them to change with the beat of the music. I just turn them off. The scratch pads work smoothly, but have just a little bit of 'bounce' when trying to cue up a track: You cue it to the exact spot you want, then when you remove your finger, it 'bounces back' a tiny bit. It's not significant, but if you were a pro it would be quite annoying. For the amateur, it's really not a problem. I wish the cross fader had a touch more resistance to it to make slower fades a bit smoother. But, again, for an amateur, it's really not a problem. This controller is fun to use, and if you are just beginning to DJ it's a great learning tool for a very low price. As you advance, a more expensive controller with more features and higher quality components will be appreciated even more.

What can I say, this is a great novice mixer. In college I was a Technics MK1200 and Numark guy. That was a super long time ago. Having experience with Numark products it was a natural choice when I wanted to get back into mixing AND teaching my 10 year-old how to spin the virtual wheels of steel. This console hasn't disappointed. BUT oh I wish I had researched all of the software that claims to be compatible. Here is the short story: not all software is compatible with the computer operating systems listed. Saying the software works with MacOS or Windows 10/11 is slightly misleading. The software may be generally compatible with an OS but not specifically compatible with that OS on a particular computer device. The sound card may not be supported, or you may need more RAM, or in some cases the chipset isn't supported. This was a WTF moment for me. I tried every software platform that is claimed to be compatible with this mixer and found hiccup and glitch time and again. I advise knowing the software's system requirements before buying any mixer. Then once you know your device will work with the software shop for a board. I'm very happy with this mixer. But I'm not happy that to get the full experience of the available software I had to buy another computer. That was my solution. There are other solutions. I personally like an excuse to get a new computer. But not everyone wants to make that kind of investment for a starter mix board and a basement hobby.

I really like this DJ controller for what it is: a simple, compact, beginner friendly controller. There are a couple of controller-specific YouTube videos to train you on absolute basics of this deck and so far I feel confident with what I've learned. I can see how some people find it a bit limiting, but for the cost, portability, and simplicity, I think it does everything it needs to do. I am deducting a star because I wish the buttons weren't so clicky and loud, but otherwise, I'm incredibly happy with this purchase.

Works better than I could have imagined

First off they make you download a software on your computer to use it that isn’t free. It only lets me play with songs on the software on my computer but the actual controller does not work. The buttons, the spinners, nothing. It only lights up so it’s basically just for show. Will be returning.

I am a beginner, like zero experience at all, and still found that this controller was a bit limited. Pros: it's compact, lightweight, and looks really cool. The light show function is fun and it was easy to set up with my laptop. It's got all the necessary components to learn the basics- if they worked. The noise level was perfect for my small apartment, and I found that it was easy to use and learn on. Cons: The jogwheels are VERY inconsistent- sometimes they work great, sometimes not at all. Mine were often delayed or one side worked while the other didn't, making functionality a nightmare. The music for both decks still came out, even when the crossfader was set to 2 and the pitch fader for 1 was all the way down. The crossfader function didn't seem to work at all for me more than half the time. Again, I am a beginner so some of this might be user error. I'm also beginning to think I just got a dysfunctional controller. I'm in courses right now, and I found that even my mentors suggested upgrading my controller for it's limited capability and inconsistent functionality. I had fun using this before I ultimately decided to return it. It was a great controller to learn the basics on WHEN IT WORKED.

Great starter DJ mini table. I used this to teach a unit on DJing in my digital music class. Also used it to DJ some basketball games and morning walk in music. Kids loved it. It was easy to use with laptop, just plug and play. Most online DJ sites recognized it, and didn't need expensive software to run.

This is an awesome little piece of kit. I connect it to the Djay app on my macbook and it works great. The unit handles all the audio channels so you can cue a track with headphones and have the main audio coming out of the speakers without any lag so mixing is easy. (just don't use bluetooth as that will lag!) The platters feel pretty good, they are small but perfectly adequate for scratching. The cross fader is lovely, very fluid and easy to crab. The buttons and knobs all feel sturdy and the entire unit feels very well built for the price. I didn't expect to use the lights, I thought they were a bit of a cheap gimmick, but I actually really like them. They are sound-to-light and in a dark room they are enough to really create a party atmosphere. You can turn them off completely if you don't want them though. The new cable set up (compared to the previous hard wired version) is much much better! Cables break and a hard wired cable breaking can easily kill a device, with this you can easily get a new cable if needed and it's also much neater to store or carry without leads hanging out of it. The cable is a like one of those standard printer ones with the square connector so very cheap and easy to replace. I've had a few of these controllers over the years, and used to DJ on much more expensive equipment. This is great for playing around at home and it's very light and compact so good to have in your bag as a back up if needed at a gig. I use this with my laptop and a W-King speaker, without needing to plug anything it, so you can just go a DJ in a random field or on the beach if you want to :)

Het mengpaneel werkt goed, voelt goed en degelijk aan. Op de labtop werk het programma goed (terwijl mijn labtop 13 jaar oud is) aantal knoppen klinken wel hard als je ze indrukt, maar als je het muziek wat harder zet zul je het vast niet meer horen. Heb het samen gekocht met een grote muismat en game muis en vindt het wel mooi bij elkaar passen.

Très bien pour une utilisation amateur, bon logiciel

Hızlı elime ulaştı. Scratch yapmak için aldım. Jog wheellar haliyle bi tık ufak ama alışınca sorun olmuyor. Hafif, taşınabilir. Tidal vs denemedim içindeki beatlerle idare ediyorum şimdilik. Serato dj lite işimi görüyor ama kısıtlamaları var tabii. Toparlarsam üründen memnun kaldım. Arkadaş ortamında djlik yapmak isteyenlerin işini görür bence.

Easy to use and very nice for beginners
