Used it yesterday. Its a worthy upgrade to the DDJ 1000. Great recommendation. The jogs are tight!
As usual... DJ Cleveland Terry on the cutting edge. I always value your reviews. Thanks for another top-notch walk thru .!!
Great review! You could put a thousand effects on a board and we might only use 3 out of all that. Besides the crowd doesn’t care about effects they only care about the next song. We mix so fast nowadays that we don’t have time to use or need all those features. Less is so much more! Finally, if you are a experienced dj you’ll realize you don’t need all that crap. 😎

This is such a great walk through. I have used it multiple times to figure out how access several of the functions outlined here. If anyone reading this is considering a flx10, do it! It is such a dope controller. I had a 1000 srt that I sold back in September, and this is a great upgrade/replacement. That’s just my opinion.
Im scared it wont have all the features available on serato. Can you confirm it works well with serato? I get nervous when I see Rekordbox on the controller.
@@dannyghost279 I’ve had no issues with my Flx10. Everything works as it should. I’ve had mine for about a year now, and I’m happy as can be.
I'm really looking forward to this. I was getting really discouraged looking for a DDJ 1000 and the only ones I could find were upwards of about $2500. This is a reality.
Same bruh. I was waiting for the 1000 to be restocked back in January but ended up getting me a FLX-6 white and love it. This FLX-10 is perfect timing for you. Enjoy!
I got one 1300$ with the case
Thank you for this fantastic review, I bought this controller today, upgrading from my loved DDJ-800 that I am selling
That’s a lot of stuff. My brain is gonna explode 🤯
That’s marketing strategy. They bring lots of gears, so you have the choice to buy Pioneer and they gain, no matter what… 😊
Cliffhanger! Rane Four & FLX 10 might need a Versus 😂
All of the colorful LEDs on the FLX10 make it look great in your studio!
Wow pretty lights..don't make the mix..lmao..njk,..just laughing ..(Kanye song all lights ) ..js...u guys are wonderfully funny...u folks would of died with a radio shack mixer,..lol
...shits just funny to me!! But ur still right to a point,pretty lights are nice😂
DDJ-1000 replacement. Looks like they developed it for Rekordbox first and then gave it to Serato to map. Regardless, definitely more robust than the 1000. Workflow implementation is pretty cool for stems being a relatively new thing.
Speaking as a VDJ user who uses the 1000 & 800, all the new features - except the split ( which is now added in their early access) were already there. FX on a specific stem is something i've been doing over 2 yrs now. If i didn't own a 1000 i would hv considered this fasho, but as of now.... i'm good.
I also do believe that vdj would find a way to make use to that DMX xlr output.
Well said. VDJ user here too and they will definitely eat that DMX output up.
@@officialdjdetox Facts... VDJ got all the bases covered.
Great review! I'm patiently waiting for mine and i think I've watched this video a couple times to get familiar with everything. Thank you
Still would go with the Race 4 over this...and I wanted a 1000-SRT forever. It's the effects for me....not a fan of the wheel, button select system. I want to be able to have control over more than one channel/one effect with the FX select. (Ie: Reverb with Echo). Though I still love the mechanical jogs - minor gripe is why they changed the outside of the jogs to look like the cheaper FLX-6 instead of actual CDJ's?
Finally an answer to the Rane Four.
I like it its very intuitive way to use the fx on the stems. I'm sure pioneer will update their stems to work better in the future.
Great video bud.
Instrumental music that's I liked to play DDJ - 1000srt , DDJ- FLX10 , DDJ - FLX6 , DDJ - REV7 and also DJ - PLX500 and DJ - PLX1000 professional turntables .
I have been looking at the flex for a couple months now and hoping it goes on sale for the holiday weekend but I'm thinking that's not going to happen. Your video was very informative Thank you very much!!
I must say that I am overwhelmed, but in a good way with all these tracks and all these possibilities it's a blessing
the slip roll on the vocals is next level ❤
I just received my Rane Four yesterday! Any comparison with FLX 10 and the Rane 4?
I was a HUGE fan of Pioneer....until the Rane 4 came out. The paddle FX are much better, as well as the implementation of the one button stem split feature. Also, the Oled screens above the pads are a game changer. I can't see myself using another controller without it
Worthless when you are a Rekordbox user.
Thanks Cleveland. I just got mine today!!! Great Break Down on this!! I bought the XZ over the summer....Too BIG!!! Used it 3 times> I gotta get rid of it. Also you put a stamp on the JetPack. I gotta get that too!! Much Love 100!!!
Great info as always! Definitely things l like about this new Pioneer, but I'm actually glad I went with the Rane Four as of now, but would love to see you do a comparison of the two!
Please elaborate
Have you have any issues with you Rane controller? Thanks
@@djrizama not at all, works great with Serato. Have not used it with any other software.
Very thorough reviews. Looks exactly like the 1000SRT.
basically a mk2 with cheaper platters
And unfortunately labeled for Rekordbox, not Serato
@@radientproductions9799not cheaper. At all.
Excellent!!! thanks. Seems like a Wonderfull boar. One of the things that I found was that they never added a stop time knob.
got mine yesterday, super happy!
Just got mine on Friday and I used on a gig that night. Having stem control totally changes the way I mix. Question, does it fit in hard cases made for the 1000?
I keep getting a unexpected error on the record box. Anybody know how to fix it?
i had to subscribe after watching some of your reviews video's. Love love and apreciate you
Welcome aboard!
Thanks for help me keep a positive outlook and yes, good things to come to those who wait I feel truly blessed with what is at my disposal?
I have been waiting for this one!!
Thanks for the review! This seems like a great board from Pioneer judging from what you shared!
Just sold my ddj 1000 last week, this dropping is perfect timing 😂
Looks legit, decent 1000 hardware upgrade (1000 owner), but not compelling considering the software update. Rb library of course remains top but Serato STEMS use (currently s5 x rane 12s) makes it worth it. The game is changing tho! 2024 is going to be awesome
Aye champ, GREAT REVIEW. Detailed. I appreciate the feedback.
Rekordbox is so powerful that stems don't matter just think about backup/restore library with cue points,excellent graphic and waveform
Really well made and informative video. Thank you!!
It's gorgeous. They need to make a white one like my FLX-6. 💪🏽
i bought the flx 10 and love it amazing board highly recommend
😮 Pioneer is officially a lone survivor pioneer with this FLEX 10 😊 i bet this controller will set the standard for Legendary DJs. 😱🤑 Prion Jo ni good job sir 🤯 thank you 🙏🏼🥵😁🥰
8:48 I know this is an old video but how did you miss the mic and sp indicators on the effect channel selector?
It happens…I’m sure when I said it I was referring to dedicated effects on the mic itself.
Nice and honest review, loved it!
Amazing info bro. I'm a part time dj. This thing is crazy.. I was up grading to a flx6. But I think this one is better.
I just got my 6 and now I'm like 🤦🏼♂️ mannnn
The first thing that comes to my mind when I saw Mix Point is Serato Flip. I know this is completely missed since Flip only works inside same track and deals with different idea. They could at least map Serato Flip to these buttons in Serato :P
Just got mine and ca t figure out how the hell to get it to play tracks. I'm getting error messages when I load a song. 1 says "download error" or "in use" help
Virtual DJ full support is coming soon. It will be really interesting to hear their stems separation on the Flex10.
VDJ stems is going to sound on the flx10 like it does on every other controller.
Did they say by when
@@MrMctalent end of April, but most likely early May
Thanks for another amazing review Cleveland. I'm still debating whether or not to buy the FLX10. I currently own the REV7 and the Rane 4, and I'm loyal to Serato. Decisions, decisions.
I really like all the features on the RANE4. I just don’t like the fact that I can’t increase the weight on the jog wheels. Has that been an issue for you?
I think it’s going to be between the RANE 4 in this FLX 10. Right now I have a DDJ-SZ so it’s time to upgrade.
Would this be a good upgrade coming from a DDJ-400 in 2024? (Spilt water on mine)
So I use a MacBook Air with Ventura 13.3 but I keep getting a error reading MIDI message. Do you have any idea what could be the problem? Do I have to have stems on my Serato already maybe?
Im using ddj dj flx 4 was looking to upgrade to either flx 6 or rev 5 but think i might as well just get this Bad Boy
Odd choice of not having the pitch fader centre lock, my only concern with it
Great job and appreciate your time. Really like this ... for mobile, this should be the go to.
Every DJ will go for this one. Honestly the way everyone was looking for a SRT-1000 was scary. But I will say this and the Rane 4 are gonna be the it. I love both however, I like my controller to get air flowing throughout I will get both tho trust you never steer us wrong Cleveland.
Nice review! Props to the albums on the wall! Stro Elliott, Kaytra, Stevie…👍🏾
Well done for the video, hello to you and everyone.. I'm looking for a way to add and apply the Clean Echo Out (or other) effect from Serato DJ Pro to the FLX10. Comment Impossible to find 😢
A lot to take into consideration on Serato or Rekordbox, I guess I would make a decision soon as I was waiting for this to come out. Hhhhmmmm I’m going to have to give myself some time whether FLX-10 or Rane Four. Thank you always CT!
Well, I decided on the FLX10 and I’m really digging it and here getting acquainted with it. I’m on Serato but also looking to check out Rekordbox.
Awesome video man. Thank you!
It would be nice to have the option for the user, to swap out the black pad for the white ones.
This is great! Just got my Flx 10! Is there a table of contents or place you can go to practice some of the ideas you have shown in this video.
Can already see the advantages of mix point link. Dope!
Great Review as usual!
Same, I DJ and play sax and sometimes I have to sacrifice playing the horn to get the next track loaded. This is going to make that so much easier
i miss the feature to switch deck 4 to sampler like on FLX 6.. because i like to put effects on my samplers sometimes
My buddy DJ Tylerr picked it up and absolutely loves it!!!
Good afternoon I am having problems with my flx 10 my music do not sync with the beat I hit the button and nothing happens any help
So which way do I go, pioneer or Rane??
When did when are they going to come out with the computer for the controller
Did you mention a sample button for air horns and DJ Tags for Serato?
I just setup mine, and the Beat FX display is off. There is no way for me to turn it on. Did yours turn on by default?
It's dope. I'm gonna go with the Rev 5. It's battle style. I don't need all that info on the jog wheels because I like to look up while I DJ lol
All i want to know is the phono preamp still shit like the 1000?
Nvm…according to mojaxx review it has been changed.
Mojaxx said it was better
This or Rane Four for Serato dj?
I'm sorry but all the reviews I have watched I'm still not convinced on what my mind is set on which is the Rane 4
Nothing wrong with that.
Hello, is there a way to speed up and slow down the play/stop tempo? What i mean is: On a CDJ it is the "Vinyl speed adjust" knob
Great review CT 👊🏼
After literally 10 mins the stems do not sound that good weird phase that I imagine gets amplified on a loud sound system I guess in a busy moment nobody would notice if you use it minimally just to take out something if you have to many elements going during your blend
I guess good things do come to those who wait unfortunately for me when are updated to 6.7 and enable track separation in the extension it will not initialise everytime I try to reopen rekordbox it keeps crashing it's been like that since yesterday please help me the stems light is at the end of the tunnel unfortunately it won't initialise and I can't open it thank you for your help
Great Review!!!! Thank you CT!!!!!!!
Yess, Recordbox finally added something similar to Trackor fade-in cue/fade-out cue. Also they are finally getting into sterms. Just because this controller work with both Serato and Rekordbox, I will rather get this than the Rev7. Plus DDJ-1000 audio board is defective.
Hi Cleveland Terry and Community - I have a question hoping someone can answer for me. Please excuse the long explanation as I am detailing what I am trying to accomplish:
First, thank you for all your content.
I am in the market for a 4 channel controller, which as been difficult for me. I am upgrading from a DDJ - Rev 1. I’ve literally tried every 4 channel controller on the market, starting with the Rane 4.
However, none worked for me and I see that the FLX10 or the MIxon 8 Pro (has the paddles same as DDJ Rev-1-I can live without the paddles if needed) may be an option for me. My question is the “Auto Loop” button.
As you can see on the Rev 1, there is an Autoloop button at the top of the controller on both sides. The button is excellent at catching the bar as soon as you press it and then chosing 4,8,16 - etc.
The DDJ FLX10 does not have this button. There are 2 buttons, one to start the loop and another on where to end the loop. Difficult for me because the first button to start the loop does not always catch the beginning of a bar.
\My question is, can an Autoloop button be mapped to the performance pad on the FLX10? If not, maybe the Mixon 8 Pro (which you just did an excellent review on) may be the way to go for me.
Any help appreciated!
That button with the 4 on it is the automatic loop.
I been trying to install the flx10 to my serato and i just cant get it to work 🤯😫
Update the firmware
Looks great. Thanks for video. So question is FLX10 or Rane four?
Same question.
My first experience was M-Audio then once I got my DDJ SX I never looked back.
Can you help on a tough decision on a Serato software Controller. Pioneer Flex 10 or Rane 4. I want to get into scratching in my DJ sets, I'm a beginner. Please help a fellow DJ out. What one do you recommend in your honest opinion. Thanks Terry C.
I was not aware that Pioneer came out with this controller till I saw the Mojaxx review. I enjoyed yours as well. It's great gear. I wonder if Pioneer will come out with a small version like the DDJ 800.
Thanks for this! Using a DDJ1000 still on Rekordbox 5.x. my friend just bought the FLX10. Will Rekordbox 5.x work on FLX10, or do I need to install 6 or 7 to use his FLX10?
Looks awesome! This will sound crazy and this is probably just me, but the changes to the beat jump buttons is a deal breaker. I use 32/16 beat jumps a lot in my work flow, and not sure if it’s midi mappable, but these changes wouldn’t fly for me.
This review was excellent, thanks CT!
You can map it
@@profbx5258 you shouldn't have to is the point. not intuitive
My SX2 is becoming glitchy and need to replace it. Have been waiting for a 1000SRT to become available. May go this direction instead. Great review. 💪😎
Got a ddj 100 for cell
@@djdubbs313 thank you, but my FLX10 arrived last week 🤗
Hi, I'm Claudio from Italy, congratulations for your videos which are always very clear and inspiring, I wanted to ask you if you tried scratching on the pioneer flx10 and if you were happy with the jogwheels? because I bought it recently and the jogwheels have a sensitivity problem for scratching, in practice I am forced to apply more pressure than is needed to prevent the jogwheels from continuing to move forward and therefore making me lose the right point of the sample which I use for scratching.
If I keep the pressure on the jogwheel too light, it doesn't stop when I would like to stop it or simply bring the sample back to the right point.
I'll start by saying that I have always used pioneer without any problems and the last controller I used was the flx6 with which I was able to scratch perfectly without any problem... do you know if there are any tips or utilities that allow you to set the pressure on the jogwheels correctly? Thanks for your attention, Claudio.
hi question, im djing on a ddj 400 for a year now and like it would u rather upgrade to an ddj800 or has the flx10 better value?
DDJ 800 costs around 929 Euros and the FLX 1619 Euros
Hello 👋 has record box improved their stems since this video upload?
Yea. Watch my latest vid on the grv6.
Ordered a gold Rev7. Then the opus quad dropped. Canceled and ordered an opus quad. Banks started doing weird stuff, decided to cancel and order a budget friendly rane 4……..this drops with built in DMX outputs….I’m so confused this year. Maybe I’ll just run my sx3 til I die 😂
thank you for this video, very nice. By the way which DJ can explain more about Link Point Mix ? It can be also use in Serato? I appreciate.
So the fader-is it harder to find the middle with no center lock?
No center lock
I also have a numark nv when I first got I didn't open it,because I was used to the 2 turntables but I finally open it and 3 Monhs later I got into it but now I Wanna go 2 another level it's the flex 10 this is gonna take awhile learning but I'm gonna enjoy it
Torn between getting this or rane performer 🙃
Does the mic set up on this controller carry the reverb or echo effect like the SRT ?
How do you change the jog wheel ring color in serato?
Since I use Serato Think I will go Rane 4. Stems use looks much easier on Rane's vs this.
It’s pretty much the same on a general level.
@@ClevelandTerry ease of using stems on them are?
@@BryanOwens yes
your video was very informative appreciate it I made a decision to buy this mixer Dj Just Kash
I'm hoping STEMS is added on the hardware for the next DJM S11
It’s already there
How I get it to work with my Macbook pro?
