Pioneer DJ DDJ-FLX4 DJ Controller

The perfect Serato/Rekordbox beginner DJ controller, the DDJ-FLX4 features Smart Faders and Smart CFX to help any aspiring DJ learn the tools of the trade!

A 2-deck DJ controller for Serato and Rekordbox, 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.

The DDJ-FLX4 DJ controller design couples a simplistic matte grey body and metallic grey mixer to provide aspiring artists a sleek, performance-intuitive first controller to start mixing on. Artists can familiarize themselves with fundamental mixing skills using the controller's two glossy jog wheels and sampling techniques with eight performance pads on each deck. The controller employs a bright amber orange LED light to illuminate key controls, while still maintaining the controller's minimalistic aesthetic.

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 DDJFLX4 read more 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 DJ Lite. Additionally, Artists can upgrade their Serato capabilities with a Serato DJ Pro subscription. Both rekordbox and Serato enable artists to play music files stored on their device; as well as tracks from TIDAL, Beatport Streaming, Beatsource Streaming and SoundCloud Go+. (Paid Subscriptions May Be Required).

Features:

- Rekordbox and Serato Compatibility: Artists can perform using rekordbox or Serato DJ Lite for free by connecting their PC/Mac to the DDJ-FLX4. Artists looking to upgrade to Serato DJ Pro can buy a license or subscription for the premium version of the software.
- Multi-Device Support: The DDJ-FLX4 is compatible with a host of devices including PC and Mac computers, iPhones and iPads, and Android phones and tablets. Artists can also use the controller with rekordbox for iOS/Android when the update becomes available in early 2023 and can connect to the device via Bluetooth.
- Portable Design and Professional Layout: The layout of the controls on the DDJ-FLX4 makes it easy to learn to DJ and is inherited from professional Pioneer DJ products. Everything is simple to use and neatly arranged, which also makes the controller compact enough to take anywhere you want to practice or perform.
- User Intuitive Smart Mixing Features: Don't know how to mix? Don't worry, artists can get started right away with the Smart Fader feature, which automatically adjusts the volume, bass volume, and BPM of the music so they can smoothly transition from one track to the next by simply moving the channel faders or crossfader. This means artists can have fun straight away and get a grasp of other fundamental DJ skills such as EQing. Plus, with Smart CFX, artists can put their own stamp on every song by simply turning a knob to apply a combination of effects that will add drama to the sound.
- Seamless Integration with Music Streaming Services: rekordbox is compatible with a different choice of streaming services. So, depending on the DJ software artists use, they can choose from millions of tracks available on the TIDAL, Beatport Streaming, Beatsource Streaming, and SoundCloud Go+ platforms (subscriptions required) and mix them together on the DDJ-FLX4. Artists can use all the effects and performance features to spice up their favorite songs and create their own sound.
- USB Audio Output for Microphone Sound: The DDJ-FLX4 removes the need for a separate mixer or soundcard as the controller mixes the microphone audio with the music. These audio capabilities make the DDJ-FLX4 an ideal choice for artists looking to livestream their sets as artists can perform using only the controller.

"Unfortunate victim of Serato's money grab"

Overall: 0.5 out of 5 stars

If you're looking for an inexpensive Serato controller, this most certainly is not it. It is neither inexpensive nor a good controller for the money. It may work for a bedroom DJ who never intends to leave said bedroom, but for anyone serious about playing in public, this controller doesn't have enough features. It works with Serato lite out of the box. If you're willing to drop an additional in $250 in Serato's pockets, then it will unlock Serato DJ pro. Save the $250 and apply them to a controller that will unlock Pro. Also, it's built entirely of cheap plastic and feels like a toy.
