$250 for a DJ controller that does all this? | DDJ-400 Gear Demo

Here is my review and demonstration of Pioneer DJ's latest DJ entry-level DJ controller for Rekordbox DJ, the DDJ-400. Also did a comparison with Pioneer's entry level DJ controller for Serato DJ, the DDJ-SB3.

Damn bro I've been watching videos for four days and this has been hands down the best comparison and most informative video. You obviously have a wealth of skill and knowledge around this particular subject and I appreciate you sharing it.

Bro, I find myself just watching your videos because of how detailed, honest, real, and real-life your opinions are. Fantastic job man. Just invested in an SZ2. Not because of the hype, but because where I am from, the big party promoters don't only respect your skill, but also your equipment. If I step out on a big stage with my SB, I will get laughs, and potentially lose out on future jobs.

A year later I just purchased a ddj 400, and it's awesome, it pretty much does everything high end controllers do at a fraction of the cost....
These entry level controllers really are jammed full of specifications.
Awesome pioneer!

Really love that you are goin in depth with live mixing and comparing it to other models

[walterl]

Yours reviews and your videos are better clearer and smoother than all the other channels on YouTube!!

One of the best, if not, THE BEST review and comparison I've witnessed on here. Definitely helped me with making my decision on what controller to go for as a beginner, thank you. :)

[yori]

Really feeling your in-depth analysis. Prob the most thorough I've seen on youtube. Respect.

@15:55 A little rough? I was about to pop a molly.

[Marciiitoo]

Man, you should make a dj tutorial for beginners

[Dramatello]

Came for the review, stayed for the mixing skills.

I've been really happy with the DDJ-400, it'll handle everything I do for a long time (mix DJ, house, pop, rap). This is a great video, really really great video; sweet spot combination of review and mini tutorial. Great job on this vid, been a subscriber for a while! I use the DDJ-400 with Rekordbox and it's worked great, nice having full feature set / license for a complete and competent software package right with the controller, thanks Pioneer!

One of the best reviews on this controller on YouTube.

I upgraded to the ddj 400 from the RB and glad pioneer are adding the nexus layout to there rekordbox controllers which will make stepping up to club gear more flawless.

[russellwinburniii]

bruh that little clarity bit you had right there was beautiful I instantly subscribed. I hope to be this good at some point

[theindianwayfarer]

What a mix bro! Insane. I think that was a crazy demonstration of what you can do on the DDJ-400

[mgp]

Awesome review. Bought the DDJ-400s last week before seeing your vid and learned about a bunch of new features by watching!

[azoladder]

I have a numark ns7II as my main controlller
Just bought this controller and love it. For $250 you get full rekordbox . This a great back up for me and something to take to small gigs..

[colioricodo]

I use the DDJ 400 for drum and base and I only started DJing recently and it's such a nice and simple design making it easier to match up your BPM and the small amount of resistance on the tempo slider also allows you to be more accurate with your beat matching. 😁😁

[monnegovers]

Great video man, you seem to know your stuff! Just ordered the DDJ-400, can’t wait to get started with djing!

[zachsanders]

I love after you mix the clarity track you end saying that was a little rough and it was absolutely great

[MoAntphonyMo]

I vouch that the DDJ-400 is a greater starter controller, got mine a couple months ago and love it!
