Great review. Well done Phil & @Digital DJ Tips I think it's an awesome controller and I'm sure so many dj's will soon be using it. Just like all dj's I love keeping up-to-date with developments and gear, even those that I will never own or possibly use. This will be one of those scenarios as I'm happy with Rekordbox and am not a scratch dj but of course the price would also rule me out. Regardless of me though I just love seeing the buzz and excitement around these big gear launches which always makes me happy to be a part of the dj community.
that is GREAT idea to put the scratch sounds into the controller..... so many times i want to just have a quick scratch while im listening to music, but i cant be bothered booting up the laptop
I’ve decided my next and most likely last expensive dj controller purchase is gonna be motorized platters. I’m getting old and I just want that feeling again from the good old days even though I don’t need it at all.
Glad I held out. Had a feeling Pioneer had something in the works. Held out on getting a Rane One, S11, or 1000SRT. The auto loop placement is going to take some getting use to. But it’s no biggie 😬
Hope they do a DDJ-REV12 that have 12” platters like Rame Twelve Mk2 and the S11 mixer. Or even better the 12”-platter as stand alone! I buy 4 of them straight up!
@@pollodereynaldo9211 Rane have already done it and all old DJs that started with vinyl are used with 12” so Inwonder why you think nobody would want a 12” platter controller?
@@PelleWidell My bad!!! I understand you now. You want something to compete with the Rane Twelve MK2 platters. Not a all in one 12 inch controller board. I can see that but those MK2's are solid. Pioneer has the Plx 1000 turntables that you can use with Phase. That is Rane MK2 competition. I have those as well.
I got one of these and I love it! I'm looking to take it off-grid to make some videos out in nature. What would I need in terms of a portable battery / power station like what Jackery makes to power it for 3 or 4 hours? It would be just for the REV7 itself - no speakers or monitors.
@@mactimbre Ecoflow Delta will do you just fine and you could add up to 1000 watts of sound while DJing and the battery unit will last you for up to 5 hours.
What do u think is the chance of a standalone with moving jogs....? I'm really looking at updating stuff sometime soon, and the Rev 7 is one option, as is the Prime 4... either one would end up with a Denon SC player next to it at times... I have some decisions to make, but I think in the next 6 months I'm going to update my setup.
can you use timecode vinyl (via phone line in) with it. Not necessarily on a third channel (which i heard is not available) but to swap out one jogwheel?
Same way any vinyl DJ would DJ on turntables. That said if you'd prefer not to have motorised platters, there is no way of turning them off on this unit. Try the Rane One if you want the choice, or the Rane Four (or any fixed platter DJ controller you like) if you don't care about motorised platters.
Damn that is one all singing and dancin unit, just wow. Moved over from Serato to Rekordbox about a Year ago but damn if they don't drop a Rekordbox version of this ala 1000&SRT might be moving back over lol. Sadly its gonna be a Paper Launch seen as how everything electronic and even semi desirable has not been available that past couple of Years :(
9:56 so let's just say I sample Samuel L Jackson, I could import it into this and save it to one button, and scratch along? Please note: I've never scratched in my life, but it looks fun.
As a rekordbox user this makes me wonder how much dose pioneer really care for their software, I just don’t understand how could they have make such cool revulsions on hardware but ignore their software,
I agree with the comment above. More scratch DJ's use serato and if you made it just for rekord box this project would be a total flop. You have to please the masses unfortunately. In reality more people use serato then rekord box... I hardly ever see anyone use rekord box.
As a serato user , I don't wonder. I know pioneer makes cdjs and mixers. I understand djs use rekordbox, cdj(playlist) players. There are way more controllers / mixers out there For serato then rekordbox. 🤑
@@digitaldjtips epic, now that is alone is a great plus to buy Pioneer, and that ready to go Scratch feature is a super cool feature as well, that's it, completely won over Rane 1, Feel sad for Numark legacy though,
I’m not giving up my NS7III for this! I use my 4 decks and cue buttons all the time! Larger Akai pads are a plus too! This thing is all plastic too. Too bad, I was looking forward to this one.
Yes, it is currently a Serato-only device. That said, there is a general Midi mode in the settings, and knowing Virtual DJ, compatibility there won't be too long in the launching...
Without the cue, how do you come back at the begining of the track ? I know with timecode vinyl, you had to put a hot cue at the start of every track One of the main reason I'm using Traktor is because it put this hotcue automatically, on Serato/rekordbox, if you're on a turntable and forget to add you hot cue, it's not quick to go back at the begining of a track. It's nice that they give the "full turntable experience" here, but why keeping the unconverience of a format when you can easily improve it
It makes the Rane One looks like a toy :) I'm not a big fan of horizontal pitch fader though, I never find it intruitive and precise with the way the hand go on it. Hope they'll do something like that but in the XDJ series, so we can have more options for scratch gear that doesn't require to bring a laptop (for now only Denon have something interesting)
Nice how how they've included a utility to alter and custom the jog wheel screen, but no cue button button, no integrated power and only 2 decks.. No doubt ranes new version will lose this.
Purist or not, I'm not sure I would buy a controller without a temp cue. I simply use it too much Also I guess you can't turn off the spinning of the platters, so that you can "ease in" to using spinning platters when you are ready, like you could on for instance the NS7 mk1, 2 and 3 So... an impressive controller. But probably not for me :(
Good points, Klaus. No, you can't turn off the platters (I forgot to mention that, thanks). I guess you could use the first of the hotcue pads to replace the temp cue...
I said that in a earlier post close to 2kafter taxes and case and laptop(fresh one) Omicron tells my wallet...BRO THIS IS NOT A GOOD LOOK FOR BINESS RIGHT NOW stay on that mint condition prime4 you got
@@digitaldjtips Would be nice if Pioneer R&D took a gander. Another gripe is the price. You can get an S7 mixer and a couple descent grade plastic build direct drive turntables and control vinyl for the same price. Sure the portability aspect is what sells here I'm sure but the price is a bit steep for what you're actually getting.
This,, is a cash grab unfinished product and mark my words after 6 months they will release standalone device, because well 1800 eur for device that need laptop to play, well jehhhh.
Lets not get too ahead of ourselves here yes it is nice but spinning platters on a controller is not new if used outside there is no daylight mode so this may impact the display on the platters pioneer should have made this a standalone unit with serato built in that would be next gen thinking in my view, failing that the photoshopped fake rev 10 should have been the controller pioneer made with s11 mixer 10 inch platters they could have done this but simply wanted to make their version of a rane one with some gimmicks thrown in again it just smacks of pioneer doing just enough to stay relevant but not doing enough to stand out
Bro 20 inch would of been nice but y don’t want nothing to heavy especially if u are using a case with it now the stand alone I would agree that would of been a game changer
@@Bladebrownlive yh i just feel pioneer was wanting to get the equaliser so to speak when they could have blown the rane one out of the picture, in fairness the battle layout was the right way to go if Rane opts to copy this layout on their next controller i would see that as a lack of confidence in their own design the upside is customers now have a choice which is good so have to see how Rane responds as they struck first but those who were undecided about the one may now decide to go with pioneer
More Plastic garbage by Pioneer. This thing will not last and will cost tons to repair. Trust me and remember I warned you. This thing is straight garbage. For 1800 dollars man I would not waste 1200 on this which is where it should be priced. Trust me, once Rane fixes that FX issue then and only then will a controller be superior. This thing along with all Pioneer gear is nothing but a bunch of plastic. The Rane one is built like a tank.
I havnt known pioneer to have problems with theirs units I’m the first guy to ever buy the rane one I had it before it really hit the stores u can look on my Facebook idea and watch me inbox it the problems I had with it was crazy I sold it within 3 months s d both the srt1000 true they could of made it a little better with the stand-alone that would of no doubts had me in the stores today but I trust pioneer rane should stick to the 12s because the controller was a piece of shit to me

Dope presentation! Liking this REV-7

@@digitaldjtips well..
-SPLIT CUE, for headphone cue-ing YES!

-2 mic inputs (with different color knobs, unlike the same color knobs-like on the DDJ-1000SRT)
-INSTANT SCRATCH onboard Samplers-(SPECIFICALLY the DRUM BEAT looped sampler (Can be used to Intro or Outro mix onto any song) with the pitch control
-has an additional line input (AUX) for an additional audio source with it's own volume knob
-& Ergonomically/DESIGNED BETTER:
1st--The AUTO LOOP buttons has the in/out buttons on the right side (Which is better then how the DDJ-1000/SRT has them, on theat has them, on the left side of the large AUTO LOOP rectangular button) should feel better when quick loop beat cutting & mixing
2nd--Putting the Library/Search/BROWSE KNOBS on the right side (instead of the left side, like on the RANE ONE controller)
3rd--The Pioneer knobs, instead of the RANE knobs/caps, which look dated/old on the RANE ONE controller & battle mixers.

Battle mixers don’t use stand-alone. Doubt it happening.

Nice review , any integration with Rekordbox DJ ?
It is highly likely this will work with Rekordbox DJ in our opinion, if not now then soon, but we have no word on that at the moment.

Does that echo you referenced record if you are recording a session in serato? Or is just for live playback

Why not just have 4 deck control / deck select seems like an oversight
Scratch set-ups tend to stick to two decks.

Did you mention silent cue did you demo it might have missed it. Very nice demo!
No we didn’t demo it but we did mention it
It doesn’t have the stems unless it’s through Serato software not built in.
That's the same with all controllers.

I like rane one when it comes to built in quality, rev 7 also good but more plastic made …
Wait till you see it though, as I don't think many people will have any worries about the REV7 build quality.
I didn't like all the buttons don't light up and no click on spped adjust
the speed adjust still has a section in the middle where it stays on "0", it just isn;t as physical click.
Nice how how they've included a utility to alter and custom the jog wheel screen, but no cue button button, no integrated power and only 2 decks.. No doubt ranes new version will lose this.
Two decks is standard for a battle controller, and no cue button is also to be expected. We also don't like the lack of intergrated power though.
@@digitaldjtips what about the 4-deck NS7III, with cue button, and integrated power Numark released 7 years ago! 😝
they miss out on making it a true standalone, no USB port or memory card reader.
Bro that what I was waiting on is it a stand alone unit would have shut it down
First they will take your money for this version and then bring out a stand alone and take your money again. That's the way it works...
No cue is stupid. Other than that looks like a good controller. But I'm still waiting for a motorised standalone so I can get rid of my SC6000ms.
Bound to happen at some point!

@@Bladebrownlive yh i just feel pioneer was wanting to get the equaliser so to speak when they could have blown the rane one out of the picture, in fairness the battle layout was the right way to go if Rane opts to copy this layout on their next controller i would see that as a lack of confidence in their own design the upside is customers now have a choice which is good so have to see how Rane responds as they struck first but those who were undecided about the one may now decide to go with pioneer
I give those motorised platters 6 months before they break down. Typical Pioneer lack of quality
There are CDJ-2000s from 12 years ago still installed and working in some clubs.
good bye rane !
More Plastic garbage by Pioneer. This thing will not last and will cost tons to repair. Trust me and remember I warned you. This thing is straight garbage. For 1800 dollars man I would not waste 1200 on this which is where it should be priced. Trust me, once Rane fixes that FX issue then and only then will a controller be superior. This thing along with all Pioneer gear is nothing but a bunch of plastic. The Rane one is built like a tank.
This is built just like the CDJs which are super reliable. So we disagree with you there.
@@digitaldjtips You watch the issues that will come from this unit. Remember this post I will remind you in 6 months.
@@digitaldjtips You just gave it away, you work for Pioneer with the "We" comment. Now I see why your promoting garbage its a paycheck.
I havnt known pioneer to have problems with theirs units I’m the first guy to ever buy the rane one I had it before it really hit the stores u can look on my Facebook idea and watch me inbox it the problems I had with it was crazy I sold it within 3 months s d both the srt1000 true they could of made it a little better with the stand-alone that would of no doubts had me in the stores today but I trust pioneer rane should stick to the 12s because the controller was a piece of shit to me
Prime4 is also built like a tank
$1,899 No thanks Meaningless only advertising nothing else
Let's see if you're right, or if it is a success.
