      How's it holding up? I'm stuck between ddj400 and impulse. Everybody says Pioneer but my old Hercules Steel from 2011 or so still kicks. I respect Hercules build quality. I use Virtual DJ so software doesn't really affect my choice.

    When Numark Platinum FX came out you made a video telling that this is the best DJ controller for beginners!
    When Hercules Inpulse 500 came out, you made a video telling the same thing, that Hercules is the best choice for beginners.
    And now that most of your fans and channel subscribers have bought one of these two, you make a video telling that Pioneer sb3 is the best choice, and better than the other two.
    I'm one of your fans that bought the Numark Platinum FX after your video when it came out.
    I'm a fan of your channel and of course your videos, but after your today video, I have to say that this was a wrong move! Sorry for telling that, but this is what's the feeling for me now!
    Your video today shows us that you are trying to be "good" with all big DJ companies. That's why I write that it was a really wrong move from you!

    I remember when I'm starting out, I have the Vestax Typhoon controller. Such a good dj controller with a lot of good features and that baby is still alive until today 🙂 .. Now, I have a Pioneer DDJ-SR controller and 2 technics 1200 turntable. Go find what dj equipment you want, and suit to your style of djing.. it doesn't matter if that controller is for beginners or not.. all of these controllers is a good choice. Remember, the equipment doesn't make you a good DJ, It's all about skills and originality.✌️🏻

    Just ordered an Inpulse 500, been watching your videos to know which is correct for me since I’m going from producing music to DJing. I can confidently say that the Inpulse 500 is best for me because of the guides for beatmatching which I can turn off once I master that. Been having a blast watching your videos!

Like how good should i be to be able to do my first gigs?
    btw, i already did some tiny gigs, but just like at a friend of mine's birthday, and i did pretty well, and everyone was quite happy about it...
    And once more i went to this trendy bar in my city and i went to watch the deejay mix and stuff, and he asked if i wanted to try, and i said yes, and for like half an hour or so, i deejayed, and did well.. So, what would u say? am i too young? Do i need to be better? idk

    I have the hard choice to decide between the ddj-sb3 and platinum fx. Scratching sounds like so much fun, wouldn't want to make it hard for me to learn it with the platinum fx, but it has those lcd displays and effect section. Maybe I just do the basics scratches for now and focus on learning how to make good mixes with effects.
    - Edit
    After looking into it it appears the ddj-sb3 has been replaced by DDJ-REV1, which has a battle style layout. Tried it in a shop and didn't find it nice to use. I think I now have to go for the numark, can't find old stock.

    Save $50 and buy the Numark Pro Fx instead of the Numark Platinum Fx.
    Apart from the Visual Display within the Jog Wheels, they are exactly the same. Oh, if you think the 4 channel mixing capabilities in Numark Platinum Fx is gonna come in handy, as Cleveland Terry says, "Never in my life will I ever use a 2 Channel mixer to do 4 channel mixing"...

  • @draglinedrummer

    Which one would you recommend more for scratching? I really like the paddle effects on the Numark but sounds like the jogwheels on the Hercules might be better for scratching.

    Very Nice video. I think I’m going for the numark or Hercules, but I have two questions for you...
    If you where a beginner and thinking about to buy the hercules or the numark, witch one should you shoose.
    And are there diffrences in the sound quality with this two controllers?

    • @djcarlo
      @djcarlo  Před 2 lety

      Well, there isn't much of a sound quality difference, so it really comes down to preference for the layout here, and budget!

      Do you think I can use that speaker and plugg it in straight into the dj controller and start djing without problem? Or is there something I should think about?

    Hi i cannot really decide even after watching the video :D
    Im just starting so im a complete beginner, im a bit worried that the lack of Effects on the Hercules will bother me
    from a price prespective the Hercules is a good amount cheaper than the Numark
    Hercules: 240 Euros
    Numark: 290 euros
    i mostly listen to psytrance/trance, hardstyle an sometimes edm/charts idk if thats a reason to go for one or the other
    and another question can i use both of them with an Tablett or do i need a laptop/notebook?
    thank you in advance.

    I was going to buy the Numark Platinum (instead of DDJ 400). A DJ friend recommended the controller (and is/was using it almost daily) at first, told me a few months later, that the problems with the Numark start after a month or so: buttons falling apart, deviations between the display on the jog wheel and the software, some fx being non-responsive and so on. I am confused. All the reviews, I have read or seen are either first impressions or performed on brand-new controllers. This is a new hobby for me, and I am sure, I am not going to use it daily, but I want things to last for a while, or in other words, I don't want to buy another controller next month. So, what's up with that? Maybe you could shed some light on this. Thank you very much.

    • @djcarlo
      @djcarlo  Před 2 lety

      Hmmm, I've had no problems with the Platinum FX, and neither has a friend of mine and he's been using it near daily too for a lot of gigs. I say it's still pretty solid!

      They're both excellent controllers Jonesy, but it depends on which DJ program you wanna use. The 400 is exclusive for Rekordbox, while the 500 works with Serato and a few more. Check out my review videos on both as well!
