      I used to be deep into midi mapping, but stopped really bothering a while ago. Have forgotten so much.
      So was properly scratching my head on where to find the loop halve and double buttons until I watched your video. So thank YOU!

    Thank you mojaxx for always giving the best unbiased reviews on equipment. I've seen many reviews bashing this controller (I'm a turntable man) and I've been looking for a no nonsense review as I'm looking to buy a controller for the first time in years and this caught my eye when it originally came out on rekordbox. I highly value your reviews and insight and this is exactly what I needed, keep up the dopeness you posses my dood👍👍

      A2J I'm a 43 year old vinyl Dj and just recently bought the regular ddj 1000 and love it! It's really weird to get used to using a laptop and there is soooooo much shyte you can do with it. I would say go with the rekordbox version though, it has a lot more options and way more effects

      @@patmygroin I thought about getting the rekordbox version when it came out and I played around with rekordbox dvs in general and honestly I just dont like the feel of it. I like traktor, I use serato, but rekordbox just isnt up to what I want it to be. Maybe in some years it will reach that level imo, but for me I just dont like it which is why i held off investing in the 1000 for it.

    Pioneer need to produce a DDJ-800SRT version for Serato users, if they see it worth having a 1000SRT model surely an 800SRT version would be easy with the software already sorted for the 1000SRT I have nothing against Rekordbox but as a long term Serato user and in no way needing a 4 channel controller an DDJ-8800SRT would seem a logical step, I would buy it as soon as one came out !!!!!

    Strange how Pioneer holds on to their 1995 style of looping. A simple push encoder is way more intuitive + faster to use and takes up less controller real estate. Also, it could double up as a loop move control on a shift layer. I wonder how long it's gonna take 'em to abandon that. Like if you want that push encoder, too :)

  • @varunthankachan7096
    @varunthankachan7096 5 років тому

    Bro u can actually dial in the BPM for beat fx by pressing SHIFT and then the RIGHT Beat fx button. But you have to tap or set it to auto by pressing SHIFT and then the LEFT beat fx button.

    • @Mojaxx
      @Mojaxx 5 років тому

      By ‘dial it in’ I mean by holding Tap and turning the Time knob like you can on a 900NXS2 and other hardware. That takes you up or down 1 bpm at a time. You can even hold a second button with it and dial in to a tenth of a bpm.
      No time knob means tap or auto are the only options on the 1000SRT.

They're not in the business because they just absolutely love putting out 12 different machines that essentially do the same thing. They're all purpose-built to make money from a very specific market segment. Complaining that they forgot a particular button that you wanted is all that much more ridiculous if they actually put it on the next version and instead of saying hey cool thanks I needed that, you immediately launch into a tirade about how they forgot this other button you really wanted.

What I was noting was that I don't agree (my right as an American) with how they produce these controllers without functions that have been BASIC and standard on their previous stand-alone products. That was it, I don't use controllers, I use turntables with vinyl on Serato. You don't see Serato charging you for every fucking update to their software, do you? Hell, I purchased "scratchlive" and Serato Video like 13 years ago and that was it! Never got charged another dime. That's all I'm saying. If you make these fucking things so that they look like CDJs, THEN MAKE THEM CDJs! why take shit out that you know people need and are used to?

  • @radientproductions9799
    @radientproductions9799 5 років тому +2

    Many of these reviews are missing the major flaws. Keep in mind , I’m not saying it’s a terrible controller. But for the price tag , they gave an incomplete product. Problems : 1. Cant adjust the channel fader curve (even though you see the knob in serato settings , but unable to adjust it. 2. Cant adjust the gain of the mics (even though you can see the knob in serato settings) 3. Serato FX are post fader - even if I Midi map the knobs to trigger effects in serato it doesn’t sound good at all, nothing like a ddjsx. 4. You can’t adjust the intensity on the color effects (the dub echo sounds nothing like on a djm900, the noise is wayyy too intense, only filter works as it should) . On other controllers/mixers there is a pioneer utility to adjust , the srt does not have it (yet atleast). 5. The Sensitivity on the platter is not adjustable like on cdjs. It can take some getting used to scratching on beat with it. 6. Not being able to control the mic volume using a knob (as opposed to the fader on ddjsx) sucks big time. I didn’t realize how much better having a fader was until I started using it at weddings.
    I’ve used it 3 days a week since it was released for bar djing and wedding djing.
    All of these problems I listed are actually FIXABLE problems with a firmware/software update. But they haven’t done it yet.
    For a wedding dj I don’t recommend it , for a club/bar dj it does fine , if you don’t use serato fx at all.

Where the pads are now is ok but with pads at the bottommakes look like you are reaching to the jog wheels. I you look at any new stand alone mixers the pads are in the middle when add cdjs or turntables they are in line with cross feader. It makes it better for beat juggleing and other tricks.
