took the rev 1 fresh out of the box and performed on it a hour later, excellent pickup for newer djs looking for a cheaper option for equipment . Will definitely be using this one for a while

I have owned both controllers and prefer the REV1 over the DDJ 400!!!! Better made unit and love the bigger jog wheels. The DDJ 400 feels cheap to me, so that it why I sold it.

[kenthotho]

been using the ddj400 for 6 months. rekord box has improved pretty much. initially it was a pain the a** but i don't miss serato now. 😊😊

Only started around 2 months ago and got the DDJ200 just to see if I could pick it up as I've been big into music for 20+ years. The progress I've made is fantastic but I have the DDJ400 and a laptop arriving today as there's so much more I feel I can do now. The DDJ400 was the choice for me as further progression and upgrades in the future like you say in the video everything is basically in the same place on the DDJ400 as the better versions of pioneer equipment. Why I didn't take this up a long time ago was a massive mistake but onwards and upwards 🎵👌

Excellent Comparison Review on these two great controllers I like them both but the Rev1 is quite a bit less than the ddj400 here in the states. I like the layout of the Rev1 better. Thank You!

[migueljorge]

Thanks for the informative video. I usually use cdjs and also have the xdj rx model and I love the USB features but just got the rev 1 for Christmas from my wife and learning how to DJ using a laptop and serato

I use rev 1 for a year now and i'm happy with it, but i'm seartching for a ddj 400 because i have use it in clubs and i want to have booth

[KimHarsha-ocrz]

They are very good I have a question I do not like the Mix-A-Lot at all I'd like to just play the music what is a good what is a good controller to have for for that

[giuseppepulvirenti]

thanks for the advice I would like to play in clubs so I think I choose the ddj 400

[djpvma]

I hate the play button placement on the Rev1. It makes using it with a mouse ridiculously annoying, because you accidentally hit pause when you reach for the mouse real quick.

Need to do a video comparing numark mix trac pro fx vs rev 1

[umitnurlu]

hi Is there an option to start and stop the section I marked in the Rekordbox hotcue section like a sample?

[MrInternationalSound]

Just fort the Rev 1 as a backup to my rev7.. ezxcellent little controller.. I opened the box…SERATO lite sucks if your used to SERATO pro.. but besides that.. very fun controller.. I’m gonna do a lot of content with the rev 1… simple and fun

[joeydixon]

I pickup the rev1 and I already have serato pro for my newmark ns7 'll my question why can't I get the rev1 to work on my serato pro.on serato lite ask me to upgrade to pro when I already have pro.

[DjRoseee]

Does the ddj rev1 work with rekordbox software

[lorenzomusolino]

Hi! I really appreciated your video, I have just one question: is it possible to use DDJ REV 01 with rekordbox? Maybe mapping it button for button... Thanks!

[Schlepperman]

I have Algoriddim’s DJ app on an iPad. I used to use the pioneer WeGo2 but in need of replacing it. Does 400 support DJ app, I know Rev1 does not?

[thomasg]

Just sold my DDJ-400 and I'm now transitioning to DJ DDJ-REV1 2-deck Serato DJ Controller!

[AlejandraHernandez-jruq]

Great review! I'm very new to this so I was wondering if you are you able to speed up and slow down tracks on the Rev 1?

[klaupaucius]

Can i use virtual dj on ddj rev? I have an ipad pro and want to start djing without buy a new macbook.
