(as of [price_update_date] – Details)

[ad_1] The Pioneer DJ Controller DDJ-FLX4 integrates two new smart features to help beginner DJs start mixing—Smart Fader and Smart CFX. Smart Fader allows artists to effortlessly transition between tracks with a simple glide of the crossfader or channel faders. After sliding the fader, the DDJ-FLX4 automatically adjusts the track’s BPM, volume, bass volume and other aspects of the songs to create a seamless transition into the next song.

Artists can also spice up their favorite tracks with the help of Smart CFX—an effect that applies complicated combinations of effects to the songs with the turn of a knob. Streaming performances to friends, family and followers is easy with the DDJ-FLX4’s USB audio output design. This design removes the need for external equipment such as a mixer or soundcard and outputs the microphone from the controller. In doing so, artists can share their set via stream from a single computer.

Better yet, the DDJ-FLX4 relies on USB bus power—allowing artists to practice and play on the go. Pioneer DJ‘s DDJ-FLX4 extends artists the freedom to mix with their software of choice: Pioneer DJ‘s rekordbox or Serato. When mixing with rekordbox for Mac/Windows, artists receive free use of the software’s performance mode. Better yet, a major update to rekordbox for iOS/Android coming in early 2023 will allow for DDJ-FLX4 use with an artist’s iPhone, Android smartphone, iPad or Android tablet.

The DDJ-FLX4 also offers artists free use of Serato disc jockeyLite. Additionally, Artists can upgrade their Serato capabilities with a Serato disc jockeyPro subscription. Both rekordbox and Serato enable artists to play songs files stored on their device; as well as tracks from TIDAL, Beatport Streaming, Beatsource Streaming and SoundCloud Go+. (Paid Subscriptions May Be Required).

Multi Software Compatibility: You can use the disc jockeysoftware rekordbox, Serato disc jockeyLite and djay for free by connecting your PC/Mac to the DDJ-FLX4 to complete your disc jockeysetup. And if you want to upgrade to Serato disc jockeyPro, you can buy a license or subscription for the premium version of the software

Connection Options: Whether you want to connect to a PC, Mac, iPhone, iPad, or an Android phone or tablet, the DDJ-FLX4 is versatile in its design. Even better, if you use the controller with rekordbox for iOS/Android or djay for iOS/Android, you’ll be able to connect to your device via Bluetooth or USB cable. So, there’s nothing to hold you back from giving DJing a try

User Friendly: The layout of the controls on the DDJ-FLX4 disc jockeymixer board makes it easy to learn to disc jockeyand is inherited from professional Pioneer disc jockeyproducts. Everything is simple to use and neatly arranged on the disc jockeytable, which also makes the controller equipment compact enough to take anywhere you want to practice or perform

Smart Mixing Features: Don’t know how to mix? Don’t worry, you can get started right away with the Smart Fader feature, which automatically adjusts the volume, bass volume, and BPM of the songs so you can smoothly transition from one track to the next by simply moving the channel faders or crossfader.Plus, with Smart CFX, you can simply turn a knob to apply a combination of effects that will add drama to the sound

USB Audio Output For Microphone Sound: The DDJ-FLX4 makes it simple if you’re keen to MC or sing over the top of your sets because it mixes the audio for you. So, you can connect the controller to a single device and hear the sound of your mix together with the sound from the microphone as long as you don’t have a Bluetooth device connected. This also makes the DDJ-FLX4 an ideal choice if you’d like to live-stream your sets because you can do it all from one device

Title: Bought this for a teen girl and loves it!
Review: Bought this for a teen girl and loves it! She likes the software Rekordbox. My only complaint it is kind of confusing how you get the free version of Rekordbox. I highly recommend that you first set up a disc jockeyaccount with Pioneer and use the option to create an account with email. DO NOT USE the Facebook or google auto-login. The reason is that the login you will set up with Pioneer disc jockeywill be the same login you will use to get rokordbox. The problem with using Facebook and Google login is that you do not have that option when trying to get a free copy of Rekordbox. As for ease of use and fun to learn, 16 year old teen was making mixes after playing with it for a couple of hours. Highly recommend the tutorials that pop up when you first use Rekordbox, and get a good couple of monitor speakers like KRK.

Title: Came early but seemingly missing a cord.
Review: mixer is great but i had to buy an additional USB C + Wall adapter to make sure it ran smoothly.sadly thats solely because my PC doesnt have USB C, if your pc has usb c this will run all off of ONE USB-C cable, if your pc doesnt have usb c you will need to have usb to usb-c plugged into your pc and another usb C cable plugged in supplying power, this mixer requires MORE THAN 5v output (more than USB 3.0 can handle)

Title: I feel like Pioneer went out of their way to make this mediocre
Review: No line in. The effects are good but are way louder than the track so everyone gets to know you’re twisting your cool effect knob. Sounds crackles when my MacBook Pro has to think about something else.

Title: Disappointment
Review: The controller play buttons do not light up what so ever …I’m so mad. My cheaper pioneer ddj rev 1 worked better than this one. How do you even get them to light up? All the other lights are lit up and I press the cue button and no difference. I use serato and can’t even find advice online on how to get them to light up…also my computer doesn’t have a USB c port…so I plugged my usbc charger into my computer with the USB end and then I plugged the usbc port into the controller. The instructions show you should have a cord to plug it into a wall as well and that cord was not in the package

Review: My first controller was a Ddisc jockey200 and I felt that I was ready to upgrade. Wanna share anything I can that may help someone that was in my situation that may not know. As my budget was pretty tight, it came down to either this, or the REV-1. So here are my thoughts on a few different aspects.Software compatibility:The thing is, even though this controller is labeled as a Serato controller, its really much more primarily a Rekordbox controller.(I knew this and got it for Rekordbox but wanted to try Serato anyway to see what it was like.) No matter what I tried after several hours of troubleshooting, I was not able to get it to work correctly. It only worked one time, but that was it. There was also some latency with my inputs, like changing the volume fader or scratching etc. (could have been my USB cable. It also only worked with the lite edition, and not pro. Never did anything at all on pro, and pretty soon, never did anything on Lite either. Opened Rekordbox, as soon as I resolved an issue (will talk about in a minute) it worked great. Get Rekordbox if you want to use this controller. Or if you are using another controller that also used rekordbox like a ddj 200 400 etc. Especially since most of Rekordbox is usable without paying extra with this controller. Unlike serato lite, which limits the cue points, you cannot make playlists, you cant change key, and are limited to certain FX. etc. For that, you would need to pay 10$ a month for or a 250$ one time payment (sometimes its on sale for less) If Serato is something you’re more familiar with/prefer and are willing to pay a subscription, get the Numark Mixtrack Platinum FX or the Ddisc jockeyREV-1 as those are dedicated serato controllers and would work better if you prefer serato disc jockeylite or pro. Otherwise, Use this controller on Rekordbox and everything works as intended and is much less of a headache.Controller Itself:The controller itself is a huge upgrade from the Ddisc jockey200, and I can see why it replaced the 400 as the golden standard of disc jockeycontrollers. It has a club style layout. Suited to playing EDM and Dance songs. Though of course this can be done with any layout. The jog wheels are bigger as well, with a matte finish. They feel nice. not much complaint there. One thing I have a gripe about this controller with is the to engage FX, which is toggling a switch to either deck 1 or deck 2, and then hitting the FX button. Not too big a deal, but I really prefer having the FX paddles like on the REV-1 or on the Numark. As then you dont have to remember to toggle it back and forth between decks and shut it off by pressing the button again, but then rather you just flick the switch on the left side or right side for however long you want the FX on. Easier workflow if you ask me but its no big deal and I can get used to it. It has loop buttons on the top which allow you to instantly make loops to hype up the next song which is cool. The build quality feels decent too. Pressing the performance pads and moving/scratching the jog wheels feels satisfying. The volume faders and the cross faders feel decent too. It also has 2 unique buttons that are an “upgrade” over the Ddisc jockey400. The smart fader and the smart cfx. I say “upgrade” in quotes because these buttons can be pretty polarizing topics. The smart CFX from what I can tell is really cool. Its basically a combination of multiple effects into one of the CFX knobs. You can also change the type of smart CFX by pressing “Shift” Together with the “Smart CFX” Button. They sound pretty cool and can spice up your transitions or songs! I still think the original FX are better to use, but using these as a surprise to the audience once in a while could be cool! The… other addition unique to this controller is the smart fader… This… can be up for debate. Essentially, it automatically beat matches two songs and will automatically apply FX as you are transitioning from one song to the next. The good thing about it is that it can seemingly transition two wildly different genres and BPMS somewhat smoothly. The bad thing is that it sort of feels like a gimmick to me. As something like this will never replace good song selection, preparation, and mixing skills. Especially since its the only controller that I know of to have this feature. If you upgraded to a different one and you rely on this feature, youre on your own.My issue I hadI dont think anyone will experience the same issue, i was an idiot on this one, but in case, I will share. Rekordbox essentially told me that this controller could only be used if I had a paid plan. Was the first I heard of it. So I went ahead and got the paid plan. Thinking that would fix it, but it didnt. It unlocked Rekordbox, but it had no function whatsoever. No playing, no volume faders, loading songs, no nothing. The thing is though, that this unit is on the hardware unlock list, meaning that it SHOULD be free to perform with. But Rekordbox detected it as being the FLX4, so I had no idea what was going on… Until I realized that my Rekordbox was out of date… after I updated, everything worked perfectly. And I was able to cancel the paid plan. Moral of the story, update Rekordbox when you get this unit. If youre installing it for the first time, youre probably good. (Screenshots are of the issue I had and the hardware unlock list)Conclusion: As far as actually using the FLX4, I love it! Its loads of fun to disc jockeywith. And I’d highly recommend this unit. I would recommend this controller over the REV-1 and the Numark if you are not willing to pay a subscription for serato dj pro. Especially since other then the FLX6, its the only Rekordbox controller available on amazon at the time of writing this, aka, the only controllers you wont be coaxed into paying monthly for. This controller is a blast to use and could totally see my self getting a club dancing with this! I would recommend the REV-1 and the Numark over this controller, if you prefer serato and are willing to pay monthly, or the REV-1 specifically if you value scratching and turntablism as its jog wheels are bigger, it has paddle FX, and its geared more towards scratching vs getting a club dancing. though it can actually do the exact same things, just laid out differently.
