These have the potential to be pioneer killers, but they're just not there yet. The decks themselves... beautiful and strong build quality. Screen has high refresh rate and resolution so its clear and smooth to look at. Very user customizable. The bad: phase meters do not work unless you have auto sync on [whats the point if you're using sync?], when browsing tracks i feel like the resolution is wasted by not displaying enough information. The software... complete and utter garbage. Their built in conversion utilities on both the software and hardware are a complete mess. It was unable to convert ANY of my rekordbox playlists, essentially rendering the decks useless to me. I was not gonna spend hours upon hours making playlists all over again alone with cue points. And sure there is software you can purchase to help with that process... but if you're gonna have a selling point of being easy to change your rider.. you better live up to it and not have to use 3rd party software to get there.If you are starting fresh and not having to worry about moving a large library i think these decks would be perfect for you. I for one was also not too big a fan of capacitive touch jog wheels... the mechanical jog wheels of pioneers much better suit me [this is merely preference though]. The forums and reddit are also useless, lots of people asking for fixes and none of which seem to be addressed with anything other than they've told the technicians and you wait forever and ever for an update that may never come.
