thanks so much for the video. back then i was so enamored on mixing and DJing, but everything was so expensive and i was too stupid to find good learning materials lol. 20 years later and earning my own money, i could finally continue that dream and this looks like a great beginner tool.
@@Deckademics keep it up. Very thorough and we'll presented. If I were Pioneer, I would partner with you or buy this review and add at it to all channels and main website.
Awesome review, anyone that has a background of vinyl, gets my respect. I just got this yesterday, waiting on getting my laptop straight and I'm diving in 👍
How are you finding it 1 year later? I'm concerned about the durability of entry level controllers. Any problems with the jogwheel, fader, suddenly not working? Feedback would be most appreciated from someone like yourself who has had it a while.
Good Review! And agree these days u can do allot for a little nowadays. I got a Rane one for my all in one. This is a very practical beginner level controller and to your point you can really do everything most Djs need.
Thank you! We think its the best entry level controller and think you will be happy with your decision. We have them in stock here if you are interested! - deckademics.com/product/pioneer-ddj-rev1-dj-controller-for-serato-lite/. As fare as using stems, you can midi map pads to use the stems feature. Let us get back to you shorty on whether or not you can replace one of the pad modes as stems like on other mixers.
Why is my RCA cable when either plugged into aux or to RCA jack in speakers makes the scrathy sound. I got new RCA and new controller for 2nd time. Ease help. I appreciate it.
Since the Rev1 has only 2 channel/volume faders i think The software Wants you to bring down the A side channel fader in other to to bring up the volume and sound of the C side channel out the Master. So turn down 🎚️channel 1 completely, switch to deck 3, Play the song and then turn up🎚️ You should try it. Let me know if it worked.
How to press the play button to stop like a real record? Right now it stop the song instantly have looked into preference and cannot find it . Thanks in advance

Great review, I had mine for a few weeks. Love it
Great to hear!
Same here. Got it for our football tailgating parties. I learn something new about its capabilities every time I use it.
High quality review, and your passion for the topic shows.
Thanks!
I’m glad it translates, thanks!
Cool review, just ordered it, upgrading from the DDJ SB3, after 2 years, thanks bro.
Definitely an upgrade and stepping stone to the next level!

I ordered mine today, things have come along way! Props to Pioneer for this release!
Absolutely! It can be easy to take some of this stuff for granted, but it’s a whole different ball game from just 20 years ago
This review is amazing, I have this controller since january, and i just learn some trick from this video.

Great review. Thanks. I'm about to order one. Does the pads work with stems on serato 3?

Yes, you can replace either the Loop Roll or Sampler pad modes with the Stems pad mode in the Serato settings. Happy mixing!
I'm in 2 minds, don't know weather to buy the Numark NS4FX or the Pioneer Rev 1....?
Definitely different price points, but either is a good choice!
Why is my RCA cable when either plugged into aux or to RCA jack in speakers makes the scrathy sound. I got new RCA and new controller for 2nd time. Ease help. I appreciate it.
2 years later, can anyone say if this controller is any good? Durability? Fader? Jog wheel issues? Please.
Yes it is! Plenty durable with no issues in our experience!
Niiice
Good looking out!
A Cue Mix Control Knob (like the 400 has) would have been nice … ?!
I don’t disagree with you!
anyone who has this DDJ , could you please share some experiment with it ?? . do it last ??
I had one of these for a week but sent it back because it was randomly going out of vinyl mode for some reason. Anyone else have this problem.
Bummer, haven’t seen this issue pop up yet
Jogwheel wobble at 2:05? 😭
Not really a wobble, what you see is just the slightly offset top sticker that I mention later in the video. Good eye though!
@@coolhandlex ohhh okay.. i thought it was the jogwheel. I am saving for the Rev 1. Thank you.
decks 3&4 why can you only here through headphones but can’t play through speakers
Since the Rev1 has only 2 channel/volume faders i think The software Wants you to bring down the A side channel fader in other to to bring up the volume and sound of the C side channel out the Master.
So turn down 🎚️channel 1 completely, switch to deck 3,
Play the song and then
turn up🎚️
You should try it. Let me know if it worked.
How to press the play button to stop like a real record? Right now it stop the song instantly have looked into preference and cannot find it . Thanks in advance
Open Serato settings and adjust the Braking stop time on the DJ preferences tab.
@@Deckademics Thanks for the reply, but I dont have that in my DJ preferences maybe it is a serato lite vs pro thing. :(
That very well could be. Cheers Kenny!
Hi @illusken. How are you finding the controller 1 year later? Any problems?
YEA ONLY YOURS CAME LIKE THAT LOL
Dude u cant even make up your own name!!!😆
