I had the new Pioneer XDJ-RX standalone Rekordbox system in the DJcity UK lab this week for review. You can find my thoughts on the unit here: news.djcity.com...
If you're buying an XDJ-RX, make sure you go through my friends at decks.co.uk if you're in the UK.
If you're in the US, please consider supporting my work by buying through Amazon.

Of course, the best way to really test DJ kit is to use it as intended! So one night during the testing process I hooked up a couple of cameras and recorded this little session. All live, unplanned, and uncut.
Ended up going quite hard on this one; guess that's what happens when I start mixing at 11:15pm! I won't try and nail down what genre this is exactly, let's just call it house.
Huge thanks go to the lovely people at decks.co.uk for hooking us up with the RX long before Pioneer had any review units available.
Keep up with all my future reviews, tips and tutorials, over at DJcity.com. Thanks for watching!
this is the first video ive seen on a youtube mix where decent music is used not some fucking EDM shit
eshmx dont say that or you sound dumb. there is a difference between bad and good music. saying its shit, thats just a subjective opinion.
Max van Andel well done, music is indeed subjective. Calling me dumb because I have my own opinion is kind of contradictory, no?
Imo, you didnt clarify it as an opinion. You was telling it as a statement: edm is shit. That way its not subjective. i didnt call you dumb. I said saying that make you sound dumb.
Yes I know right! I agree
Finally a good DJ mix without EDM and where you can see that you have talent in what you have. You're good in this, keep up the good work.
Marcio Wehman this _is_ edm.
+Youri Tol I know what he was trying to say, but this falls under "EDM", thankfully though, it's not the regular mainstream "poison" EDM that Melbourne Bounce and Big Room has become haha.
Killer mix mojax. can't even begin to tell you how nice it is to see a DJ actually looking after their levels. too many DJ's these days redlining the gains into oblivion

Heri
I think this is perfect mobile device, or device for any home dj room!
And of course, good mix! ;)
NIIIIICE AS HELL MOJAXX!!! GOOD OLE MINIMAL HOUSE MUSIC AT ITS BEST!!!! I LIKE HOW YOU TOOK YOUR TIME WITH THE MIX AND DIDN'T USE ALL THE UNNECESSARY, MIX DESTROYING EFFECTS!!
First and foremost, fantastic track selection and mixin'. Thanks for the review video as well. I like the way you do your reviews... very informative and engaging. Seeing you rock this in action makes me happy I got mine pre-ordered. Now if the 17th of this month could arrive already that'd be peacy! Lol. Cheers from Orlando, FL :)
Nice mix. Reassuring that even an experienced DJ can end up out of beat :)
watching all these videos on various DJ equipment makes you end up wanting top of the line models with the added features that they provide, lol ... those Pioneer screens looks awesome, very detailed. Thanks again for your videos Mojaxx
This is the controller I want so badly. Had a play with it several times - solid.
Cheers for this man, I think this is all I need these days as I have limited space and can't justify a full size set up as I don't play out. Coming from 1210s back in the day I could never get used to the feel of a controller and software on a laptop as I felt way too detached for some reason. Good review earlier of this also thanks again.
This controller is coming tomorrow, I couldn't be any more exited!
I took the plunge and bought this. I am very happy. I hope to be good as you one day.
Love this house set and new XDJ look amazing!
Great! Prays the copyright monster doesn't eat this.
It already did... Originally the video was 5 minutes longer, but the last track got the whole thing blocked. Hopefully I have appeased the lords of copyright enough by cutting it down now!
MojaxxVDJ Bummer, at least there are other options, Vimeo has been kind to me, as has mixcloud.
MojaxxVDJ can i ask you a question?do you assing images in every track?or it happens automatically?great mix broo!!
Elliot Noteware hg
Can't wait for mine to arrive here in greece, will also be hooking up my sl1200's... this device has got me back into DJing.. been sorting my library in rekordbox in preparation for its arrival!. Thank you for this mix and your review!
Interesting mixing style.. I'd never use the crossfader for house, and the main channel faders would be smacked to the top
amen to that
TRuly awesome machine there. Thanks for the track list. DJing has come a long way from 1979.
Good that you have the option of playing from just a USB , good mix , anyone want to buy a Numark NV haha
Diggin the Terrence Parker style mixing head-phone!
I love this mix. Thanks for sharing. Bonus points for mixing it on the XDJ-RX. I will be buying one.
Still my go to mix for when I'm in the office.
nice mix!
So chill
love it when that ardalan track dropped
well a tracklist in general would be stellar
Sweet, like your style.
This is some REALLY chill House man, but good job also!
Cant wait to get mine!!!
Omg this is so good!! thanks for posting this!! & Good job!
so crazy amazing
Awsome mix!! Great use of echo whilst cutting in.
LOOOVE THIS MIX BRO!!!! SSSSICK!!
Sick Mix dude!
Great mix!! I want one of these. I have a ddj-sb from pioneer, can't wait to buy the xdj-rx. Looks great and have a great package. I cant afford cdjs =\
Excelente trabajo.. Muchas felicidades. Saludos desde Toluca, México.
Great mix at 16.30 !
Very smooth mix!
What's the song at 10:14?
Ardalan - The No Yeah
Some great mixing !!
amazing session man...love it . Do u know a way to add a 3 deck or have some acapella going on ...or even some extra device for samplers?
This is what happens when you give a proper equipment to a guy that knows how to dj not to some kids. Good job mate !
yeah, but people have to start somewhere. Ofcourse this is way to expensive to start with.
Are you high? The beats are in perfect sync and he goes ahead and touches the pitch and then tries to correct it. He also spends 2 minutes pressing the cue and trying to beatmatch and then finally commits..
Nice mixtape, but it's entry level DJ'ing, nomatter how much you might disagree with me, if you can't mix like this, you don't belong behind a turntable.
Smoooooth
So Good!))
Great mix man i download this for in my car :) tnx nice tracks!
Good mix I love it
Great, Thanks or sharing!
nice staff man!!!
Currently using an SX
Looking at upgrading in April
Originally was going to go for the SZ
Now I'm torn between the SZ and the Xdj 1000's
But this would mean forking out an extra £800 on a djm mixer , probably the 750!
I really don't know what to go for
I love my SX
But wanted to get a set up that represents a club set up!
The SZ was /is an amazing piece of kit when I used it but it's over a year old and in controller terms this must mans it close to been replaced or upgraded!
Grrrrr I hate decisions lol
I don't want to be upgrading my gear again for a very long time !!!!
xdj 1000's!
Nais DJ control
house all day my brother
6:23
Regrets!
What a Track!
Love It.
You mix very good ;)
Proper tunes :) And while using a controller u do mix it manually :) liked your review about the device also.
nice music , just got XDJ-RX
Smooth
Very nice tracks. I'm a house head I rock with a ddj sx but I am very very interested in this xdj. Share those tracks plz or ima have to Shazam it. Lol
There's a full tracklist in the video description. ;)
In reply to your other question, I own an SX and like it very much. It has more features (4 channels etc), but as you'll say, a decent computer is always needed too.
Personally I really like using Rekordbox overall, it's my platform of choice now, but only you can decide if you're the kind of DJ who's suited to it, I'm afraid.
hell yeah!
Is it me or there is small space to move around between the knobs? It's a common controller problem that gets you frustrated in the fear of hitting something accidentally and you cannot perform well in the end. Nice mix btw.
Thanks! Actually the RX is pretty spacious for an all-in-one. It's a bit bigger than the DDJ-SX, and that has 4 channels, extra pads and all sorts which the RX doesn't.
The layout feels pretty similar to regular Pioneer DJM/CDJ kit in use.
MojaxxVDJ ...I love my ddj sx. It's my very 1st serious intro into digital djaying. My friend uses a mac...I on the other hand have a PC. I'm just so loving the fact that I can do this without dragging my computer around. Have you used the ddj? If so any comparisons?
Nice mix! :) Any notable difference in sound quality between this and the nexus series with Wolfson DAC? Cant say I hear it here on by B&W speakers in the living room or on the HDJ 2000s.
If you're playing lossless music through a really high-end system, you might notice a difference. But using mp3s on an average home or bar setup, there will be nothing in it.
Salut ;) BRAVO super mix
When you search in your library you can only see the track name and bpm, no key or comments etc? I can only see the key once you load the track, but not before. This might be a deal breaker!
You can deff sort by key, comment, and a bunch more
Really tidy mixing, lovely controller too. Is this mix available for d/l anywhere?
bingstar85 I'm afraid not, I've checked everywhere
how do you get the screen to be red on top like that?
nice
How to change the Bars with red instead of the blue???
1. Hello have a XDJ RX but I have the following problem , loading 45 songs loading menu stops responding. Even the load keys , stop responding
2. You can test your equipment to see if it is a bug or if it is a fault of my equipment
3. Already the firmware 1.30 was installed
4. Thank you for your help
I just bought this Controller. How do you analyze the tracks in the Rekordbox Software so that your tracks can be synced on the unit when you load them in?
how do you find this unit for drifting in out of time even tho bpm is matched up i feel like am constantly adjusting with platter to keep in beat ? i have arranged beat grids so don't no were am going wrong really
Hy Mojaxx, what would you recommend between xdi rx and dd. sx/rx ? which one feel and sound better in your opinion ? thanks!
Too bad Pioneer can't make the waveforms run the same speed when at same BPM. Makes it a bit weird if you want to waveride. Is this still the case on the latest firmwares?
I don't get the constant touching of the tempo fader if you're already at the right bpm.. and you're not even moving it most of the time (when you are it's pointless). Other than that I love the mix
james Probably a habit from playing on vinyl turntables....I do the same thing for the same exact reason.
Ah ok that makes sense. In my 2 years of djing I've never used vinyl so I guess that explains my lack of an explanation.
Even when the bpm is adjusted at the same number at both decks, it's necessary to adjust the tempo (%), although for the 120-130 bpm range (House Music), we can previously adjust the tempo at .0.80% for each bpm above or below between the two tracks.
james plus you have this great feature called SYNC why not use it?
⚡⚡⚡ do you find when you match the bpms that the beat grid tends to slide away? Having this problem atm.
Hello, how come when I turn on the controller, does not i leave the waveform of the song? The waveform goes down, but not the top of the display
Good
How did you rec the audio and video? Please help
How big is it? Compared to the SX ? Nice mix by the way :)
Thanks! It's a few centimetres bigger in all directions than the SX, but not by much.
Can these units loop more than 8 bars unless having to do it manually ?
hey man, i am really interested in these. do they have the same feel as cdj2000s? i've never used rekordbox before but i always play out on cdjs. if i fiddled around with rekordbox on this, would it export any cue points i put in there onto a usb so that i could play it on cdjs in a club?
cool mix as well btw
+Derren Etienne Lol, u worked with CDJs 2000 (NXS?)? Cuz then u would have used Rekordbox without knowing xD.
+ZyonixHD | Audastrian so it's the same software engine?
Derren Etienne CDJ 2000 NXS, yes. They only edited Reordbox a bit for the XDJ-RX. U have to keep in mind that Rekordbox should be used as a music administration software, so u can analyze tracks, make the beat sticks fit and so on. As a friend told me: 'If u rly use the advantages Rekordbox brings with it, u'll see that f.e. Serato is miles behind it.'
NIcEEEE!!!!
fuckin hell thats good
I got a big but small question, will take You only a second but will help me save a looot hard earned money, help me please!
When you set the mixer mode to MIDI, can it still mix two tracks in standalone mode? Or MIDI mode disables hardware mixer completely?
On minute 7:01 what is that feature he is using? can it be found on tractor software? I only have a normall controller..
Victor Rodriguez he is adjusting the beatgrid. Helps with mixing
So what's your opinion on the xdj-RX?
Did you rent it or buy it?
Works with laptop? And works with serato/traktor? thanks :)
Why would you use it with a laptop? It already has the whole dj system 😄
EXPAND THIS BOX FOR FULL TRACKLIS

EXPAND THIS BOX FOR FULL TRACKLIS
And you will get no list at all.
WHY???
It's showing for me on Chrome, Firefox, Safari and the UA-cam iOS app... Maybe try a different browser?
+MojaxxVDJ Doesn't show on my iOS app.
does rekordbox work with apple lossless files?
Louis Cooper
what audio lead do u use mate?
top
RX or Pioneer SZ? What is more identic to cdjs?
+David Estrelinha RX !!! , i owned cdj 2000 and djm 2000 , now im happy with rx ;)
+David Estrelinha Lol, I have exactly the same question. But I believe Pioneer will make ur decision become much easier, cuz I think they will release Pioneer XDJ-RZ in 2016. Then it will be 4 channels I think. It is the only explanation for me why they only made it a 2 channels standalone.
I’m trying to learn
Can someone please help me? You know when you have that awful case of just about hearing a song in your head but completely find yourself unable to find it/or any recognisable lyrics!! What I do know however is this..(New York rap by will hollyoaks has a sample of THE track I cannot trace. 15:37 and 15:45 briefly kicks in the sample of THE track I'm searching for. I thought for half a second it was an old basement jaxx track but then after a few looks, turns out it isn't. I honestly cannot state how happy I will be if someone puts me out of my misery!
Its this Akil I also have been looking for the same sample for years ua-cam.com/video/9ezRFBnWBKg/v-deo.html - )
track at 8:20?
GOOD (Y)
equipamento excelente ... peformace mais ou menos
Eppure fa parte del dj city
e fa sempre recensioni su prodotti per dj!!
Top job! (You've got your watch on the wrong arm though)
the mixing is not impressive...but the selection of tracks is , good key, good vibe. i can tell you have some experience
it's not that impressive because it's a seemless mix.
MojaxxVDJ Hey dude. Just wondering if you've noticed this while mixing. When I mix on my XDJ-RX, with one tune playing on one deck, the other tune on the other deck with the fader down, when hitting the cue button to cue the tune to play, the speaker slightly pops with each hit to the cue button? It happens on say the first 3-5 hits and then stops but happens on each deck every time I load a tune. My initial thought is my monitors were playing up, but I previously had a DDJ-SZ and it never had this with the same monitors..... did you notice anything like this?
made up my mind getting this unit instead
