  • @varmintbaby434
    @varmintbaby434 5 років тому +1

    When are you guys going to review the DDJ-SR2? That's a two channel controller about a grade lower than this one, but you can plug in turntables to the SR2 as well and it can function as a USB controller or you can plug it into the wall to use the mixer. I'd like to see your thoughts about it, as I'm considering picking up the SR2 as the SX3 is a bit overkill for me. Also, another guy on here says it's difficult to backspin with the SX3 as the jog wheels are too tight for it. The SR2 seems to do it fine though...

  • @zerberk

    Love your videos, watch all of em! Just realized I hadn't subscribed yet so I just did it right now :D One small gripe tho, Your video production is very good but the Serato screen in most videos seem very laggy which is not easy to ignore as the video is smooth. Is it because of the screen recording software or something? If you look at videos from other channels, the serato screen recordings are much smoother. Anyways, really good job with your channel, love and support!

    • @Crossfader
      @Crossfader  6 років тому +2

      It could to do with the screen recorder to be fair or it could be that my laptop needs a better RAM/more storage. We're definitely open to suggestions for screen recorders as we're using Quicktime at the moment but as you can see it's not the smoothest.

    @Travis-guy-247 Рік тому

    **DO NOT BUY THIS IF YOU MIX DRUM AND BASS**. As someone who has owned one of these for nearly 4 years now, I can tell you that build quality is a BIG con. It feels solid enough, however literally EVERYONE I know (myself included) who has an SX controller, whether it be the original, 2 or 3, all have had multiple issues with faders, cue buttons and performance pads breaking. I had fader issues on channel 1 in less than a year of ownership, sent it off for repair under warranty and now channel 1 is dying again!!! It does have some great features, and I do like it as a controller, but be mindful of the fader issues. I’ve come to the conclusion that the SX series simply cannot take the rigourous fader slamming and cutting that is required in DnB. Every DnB DJ I know with an SX has fader issues, yet everyone else I know who has a DDJ-1000 has absolutely no fader issues at all. Perhaps Pioneer prioritise quality on their Rekordbox gear over Serato?… Just something to think about before buying.

      You need to press the CUE button on your mixer for the deck you want to hear and adjust the knob that controls your mix . It's probably labeled CUE MIX so or something similar. Adjust it until you are either hearing only the deck you want to hear. Also Make sure the fader for the channel you don't want to hear is all the way down.
