zZounds Gear Experts Say...
The perfect Serato/Rekordbox beginner DJ controller, the DDJ-FLX4 features Smart Fader and Smart CFX to help any aspiring DJ learn the tools of the trade!
Overview
A 2-deck DJ controller for Serato, Rekordbox, and Traktor Play, the Pioneer DJ DDJ-FLX4 integrates two 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 music 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 music with the turn of a knob.

zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
I have hade this controller for a couple of years and it has been an absolute pleasure to use in my bedroom studio as an alternative to my standalone controller or full DJ decks and a mixer. The size, weight, and functionality of this controller is seriously desirable by anyone looking for full functionality, mixing, recording, practicing, and everything in between when using with Rekordbox. I have used regularly for the past few years and highly recommend. The only negative comment I can make is after having and used for 2 years the headphone jack is becoming unreliable and needs repair. I understand this requires installing the new part and soldering the new part to the electronics which is something you want done professionally and may not be cheap. Overall, I highly recommend this controller it has definitely lived up to it's potential for the over all use it has been given, Best practice deck out there for a small studio setup/bedroom studio. Makes the transfer to playing on standalone decks and full CDJ's and Mixer seamless.
