Hey Joe, just a quick response on the comment “for the first time ever on a Pioneer controller-only” you have USB C”. First Pioneer DJ controller to have it was actually the DDJ-FLX4 (it actually has two; one for data the other for power with pass through). And first Pioneer DJ device to have it was the DJM-S5 (also had two, one for power, one for data). The FLX10 however is the first “controller to implement dual computer, although the DJM-A9 weeks prior was the first device to do it with USB C. Also, right before the FLX10 came out, the OPUS-QUAD all-in-one also features type C computer connectivity when used as a controller. So the DDJ-FLX10, is the 5th Pioneer DJ device to implement USB type C. 🙂
Just a quick note. The EQ defaults to “stems” in VDJ and they obviously won’t be prepared unless you’ve done that. So if you don’t want to use stems be sure to disable it before the gig!
Great controller, but lack one best important thing. Suggest to Alpha Tetha to add digital sampler pad to the FLX10 at the microphone section, and will be the number one best controller in world.
Joe, I appreciate that you took the time to review it and it wasn’t sponsored so it was a lot more transparent and honest Weird question- are the pads RGB or are they only certain colors for hot cues (green, blue, purple)?
Hey Joe, it's never too late to review any gear that comes out in the same year you're reviewing it. Quick question, since your purchased the unit yourself, will you be swapping it out when you go out to your gigs from now on?
I love my FLX10, once this bad boy dropped I had it the first week it came out. On Serato if you put the pitch fader in the middle, the light will come on as it’s the center, but on Rekordbox the light won’t turn on, I’m going through both softwares to actually check which features can be used. I’m a Serato guy myself but I’m open to Rekordbox and going to check VDJ on it as well. I like to know and have options. Congratulations on getting your FLX10 Joe!!!
@@musicgoofy86 you would get full access to the controller with Rekordbox…but you can also have great features with Serato, just not as much as you would on Rekordbox.
This is actually the first video review for this controller I watch. Where have I been?!? Lol! I wasn’t even aware that the 1000 was being discontinued🤯. Don’t sell yourself short Joe😉
Will the waves lineup with each other on the lcds if they are different bpms and beatmatched without using sync? They don't on the Rane Performer was just curious
@@DJJoeBunn I got it, and it’s more than I could’ve hoped for. The reviews don’t do it justice. Now I just need to spend time with it and put in the hours with the Flx.
I also got the FLX10 and i'm also a Serato guy. I love it but I wish there will be an Serato update so we can use the DMX port for serato as well. One thing that is really annoying though is that the sound color FX noice is mega high in volume, so it is completely useless! Is there some kind of setting for this or is it a software bug? Or do I have a broken noice FX on my controller? Have you tested yours?
I have it where the "simon says" stem fx selector adds noise/distortion if all 3 aren't selected. Very irritating. And sometimes adds distortion to the color fx if I have an effect selected but all color fx knobs are at their normal point. It's bizarre
hiws the sound card compared to xz i cant find sny jnfocon xz sound card i just bought xz bit thinking to replace with flx10 what u guys think, im a serato user i don’t use recordbox
You can't even get the DDJ FLX10 still. Every place I've tried you have to back order . This is as of 16 Sep 2023! This is crazy and Pioneer needs a better distribtion system. If I wanted a Rane Four I can get that without any problem.

Thanks. This is the only review that I could find that didn’t sound like an advertisement

Great Video!!! I picked up the DDJ 800 a few months ago, I definitely have this on my bucket list!!
Even though I got myself the sc6000 + X1850, if this was out when I upgraded I might of opted for this over a pro setup.
I'm getting mine in 2 days ahhhhh 😊😊
Great overview. I believe this works with a software I am using right now and I'm seriously considering it.
Rekordbox was last on stems actually serato did it before. And virtual dj before serato.
And djay pro ai before that, yeah?
Joe, I appreciate that you took the time to review it and it wasn’t sponsored so it was a lot more transparent and honest
Weird question- are the pads RGB or are they only certain colors for hot cues (green, blue, purple)?
I don't really know and don't have it with me right now!
Hey Joe, it's never too late to review any gear that comes out in the same year you're reviewing it. Quick question, since your purchased the unit yourself, will you be swapping it out when you go out to your gigs from now on?
I am going to replace my 1000 with this for sure.

Really digging it so far!
@@DJJoeBunn yes me too! Enjoy and May you enjoy it to the fullest! I’m still learning everyday.
Which Software it most responsive with the controller? Serato? or Rekordbox?
@@musicgoofy86 you would get full access to the controller with Rekordbox…but you can also have great features with Serato, just not as much as you would on Rekordbox.
@@DJBennyswift thank you

Well maybe I'm only partly late to the party.
Great video Joe! Will be my next purchase I think. I will miss the pitch notch though! :(
same.
Will the waves lineup with each other on the lcds if they are different bpms and beatmatched without using sync? They don't on the Rane Performer was just curious
Not sure about that.
I’m amped to get mine. It ships on Monday!
I think you are going to like it.
@@DJJoeBunn I got it, and it’s more than I could’ve hoped for. The reviews don’t do it justice. Now I just need to spend time with it and put in the hours with the Flx.
best review
Ive pre-order the pioneer flx10 on april yesterday i called them up and told me that i have to wait until june like wtf cant wait to get my flx10
That sucks.
I also got the FLX10 and i'm also a Serato guy. I love it but I wish there will be an Serato update so we can use the DMX port for serato as well.
One thing that is really annoying though is that the sound color FX noice is mega high in volume, so it is completely useless! Is there some kind of setting for this or is it a software bug? Or do I have a broken noice FX on my controller? Have you tested yours?
I didn't notice that on mine.
You van change this in the software settings (Recordbox)
I have it where the "simon says" stem fx selector adds noise/distortion if all 3 aren't selected. Very irritating. And sometimes adds distortion to the color fx if I have an effect selected but all color fx knobs are at their normal point. It's bizarre
hiws the sound card compared to xz i cant find sny jnfocon xz sound card i just bought xz bit thinking to replace with flx10 what u guys think, im a serato user i don’t use recordbox
I have never had issues with Pioneer controllers sounding bad.
What is the secs on your laptop and year of it because I’m considering buying the flx 10
It's the M1 from a couple of years ago. Super fast. I'm sure M2 is even faster.
All that and a bag of chips Joe!
Does this work with the new rekordbox app?
Yes
hey why pioneer has removed middle click in tempo sliders of new controllers and other gears?
It was very handy.
I miss it too. I think the house DJs hated the notch.
Its because of mapping serato
You can't even get the DDJ FLX10 still. Every place I've tried you have to back order . This is as of 16 Sep 2023! This is crazy and Pioneer needs a better distribtion system. If I wanted a Rane Four I can get that without any problem.
It's a problem for sure. Try ben@nlfxpro.com
rane four vs flx10 what one should I go for ? Serato user …
Tough one for me because I never tried the Rane4
@DJJoeBunn this or the Rane 1?
I don't use either regularly, I'm DDJ1000SRT or FLX10
I don't use either program is it compatible for virtual dj
Not sure.
I appreciate you keeping it real Joe. LOL the title of this video was an instant click for me but also made me laugh out loud. Great video Joe!!
How can I get it to work with my Macbook pro?
It's pretty much plug and play on macs
How do you enable Master Tempo?
I think same as all their controllers, or in serato
Are serato fx post fader?
Not sure.
RX3 or FLX10?
Really loving my FLX10. I don't know that other one.
Does it run serato pro or lite
I assume pro. I think Lite is pretty much discontinued no?
Salut🎉❤
Rane Four kills the FLX10.
Far away agree with you❤
