Nice! I come from a sound engineering background, never even thought about needing all the built in routing/effects/output settings, really cool feature (for people that will know how to use it) I'm half tempted myself - although it's more for corporate and wedding DJ's, would be great to see this put to the test as a performance controller similar to what you'd typically use a DDJ1000 for or so!
Can you change the scene setting during a performance? I usually play in ballrooms for corporate gigs and there is a sound guy who takes care of the sound in the room, but I would love to be able to use the scene setting changes so that I could change the filter/FX type on the fly, and maybe even the TR settings during performance as well.
Does anyone know if the DJ707m voice effects are actually usable for a singer? How do the effects compare to a Yamaha MG10XU mixer? It would be great if someone posted a video on UA-cam singing using the DJ707m.
The mics just need setting up on their gain correctly, once done they are fine, theres videos on doing it, once done no more issues, and very clean sound
@@loveispower2997 Ahhhh, erm depends what we need it for. The 707M is a superb controller for mobile DJ's where as the Prime GO is amazing for DJ'ing on the move! Personally I don't do any event DJ'ing so Prime GO but if I was using it for gigs, 707M!
@@Crossfader Olá tudo bem ótimo canal amigo estou olhando pra comprar uma mas me falaram que roland da muita latencia confere isso? Ou é tecnica pra vende uma pioneer dj?
When you save a scene, does it adjust the knobs to the desired settings (eg: gain settings) or will it not automatically default to where the volume sits at on the knob itself. Meaning are the buttons and knobs automated to adjust to the last desired setting?
No the knobs aren't automated. The scenes just save the settings you have changed in the menu, so for example if you set more gain on a mic channel that will be saved but you still have full physical control over that gain on the level knob. So you can set 10db gain if you wish but that's when the level knob is at max, you can decide to turn it down if you wish with that knob. If that makes sense?
@@djholland4235 That makes sense. Guess my concern was whether or not you would get a jolt in the sound output the second you go to move the knob from the desired setting location. Do the knobs have an unending rotation to them or do they have a stopping point in their rotation? Cause I think this would affect sound output jumping higher or lower from scene settings once knob is turned manually. Hope you understand what I'm trying to say.
@@P4boot - Thanks for the feedback. I love Roland Gear and am a DJ and Producer. Currently got my sights on the MC 707 groovebox even though I'm due for an upgrade of my Pioneer DJ controller. 1 thing at a time though...
@@Crossfader laptops should be used as back ups not the main source of djing. its just more to worry about. Think about it we started with no laptops and now laptops are necessary to Dj clubs because we can have more songs to carry with us. now we dont need a laptop anymore. We are free!!! lets embrace this freedom!!
Only thing about iPads is can you still download music on the fly? This happens at every gig I go to and I have to be able to mix on the go.. a tablet simply can't do it for me. Not to mention the owner will be like uhh you're DJing on that? I already use a surface pro with a keyboard and get weird looks.
Please confirm/compare the quality of mic pre-amp vs external mixer mic pre-amps. Mine sounds dry compared to the mic pre-amp of my Yamaha mixer. Even after tweaking the eq/compressor and effects on and off. I thought I would get rid of my external mixer after getting this! Still a great controller tho. But please confirm the quality of mic pre-amp! Also the anti feedback thing is a joke. It makes the overall sound muffled. 😂

Great video! I'd love to see it compared side by side to the DDJ-SB3 and Traktor S2 in size.
Thank you so much for showing everything ❤
Do you guys have any idea if Roland will come with a new version with stem control, also for mobile DJs?
Nice mic testing! :) which is better b/w 707m and s4 mk3?
Great video….and most informative! Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!

Super awesome review

The mic sound is shit to start with.. Don't even bother getting this to use the mic inputs.. It's a good controller apart from that..

@@PerfectWeddingDJs Thanks for the information.
@@P4boot som do mic dessa 707m vc diz q ruim? Estou pesquisado pra comprar uma mas me falaram que roland da muita latencia confere isso?
Is the Prime Go besides the battery 🔋 Is it better than the DJ 707m
Two very different products so hard to compare. One uses Serato and requires a laptop, the other doesn't!
@@Crossfader ok we know all that but we want to know which one would you choose
@@loveispower2997 Ahhhh, erm depends what we need it for. The 707M is a superb controller for mobile DJ's where as the Prime GO is amazing for DJ'ing on the move! Personally I don't do any event DJ'ing so Prime GO but if I was using it for gigs, 707M!
@@Crossfader thank you we love both of them and it was hard to choose so it looks like we're going to get both of them 💰

What kind of cables are you using? I am looking for the best sounding RCAs and XLRs. Thanks
Just go with classic neutrik connectors and mogami/canare cables
Nice vidéo!!!!!👌👌👌
Can you scratch in reverse mode with the crossfader?
Can u please tell me what innofader support the 707m controller is it the innofader plus .I ask because it not on the innofader compatible page .
No rotary encoder for looping is a deal breaker for me. Too bad since many of the other features look amazing
nice video props :)
Thanks for watching!
Can you tap in tempo on effects for mic?

@@indiglorush I own the controller, what you save inside the mixers software is independent of the hardware controls.

but istill have to use my computer right? Then this is not yet perfect. we are moving towards standalone controllers now. laptops are old school now
We definitely feel like iPads are quickly replacing laptops with the new generation of DJs coming through. But you might be right about standalones!

@@Crossfader would be funny id you can connect your controller on a rasberry pi 4

Bangurowned that’s why the prime 4 is best!!
Just got it January 2024 and still no competence to this monster controller!! ❤
You are correct. I bought an spare one, because is it the best on market for mobile DJ's.

Pre-amp are state of the art. You just have to set them right.
