    Hercules is a "beginner controller" it has a beat matching guide that works excellent for new DJs to learn how to beat match

      That's true, the FLX 4 has some features of that nature. But what you are describing is a guide that teaches you how to do the thing, instead of doing the thing, you know what I mean? That's what I meant

    Great video partner! Curios your thoughts on the Rane Performer. Been of the DDJ-1000 SRT for a few years and keeping it, but the Rane Performer seems like the best ever built

    • @thozimusic
      @thozimusic  Місяць тому

      Oh the rane is better in every single way 😅… especially if you’re a more creative and technical DJ

  • @nikolodj
    @nikolodj 9 днів тому

    I disagree with the standalones. Best standalones I believe are:
    2 channel: Pioneer RX2/ RX3
    4 channel: Pioneer XZ
    And if any DJ has a low budget but he is determined its better to buy a used older but High End / Premium model (ex. DDJ800/1000 or even DDJ SX2) rather than a entry level brand new one.
    That is my opinion as a DJ :) !!!

    • @thozimusic
      @thozimusic  9 днів тому

      I get you but I’d be a terrible content creator if all I did was suggest one brand that is overcharging their customers for gear. RX3 is a really good choice, XZ would be a great suggestion if it wasn’t so expensive and kinda outdated (even the screens on the RX3 are way better, doesn’t support RGB waveforms too), also not everyone actually NEEDS something as beefed up as the XZ. Prime 4+ is a better option across the board (even compared to the opus quad) but it too didn’t make the list. The list is about giving people a few options for each tier, best for the consumer, not because it’s the most beefed up and expensive thing there is out there
