Very informative, another great video. Thankyou Chance! I have an sb3 and I'm considering getting a Rev1
Thanks for giving me a watch Barry.
Vestax VCI 380 was the first Serato controller to feature 16 pads and have that layout. Released in the spring of 2012. Still one of the best ever made.
Good call. I’ve never personally used one. It was an eye opening innovative piece for sure.
I still have a VCI-380 with a CF-X2 fader! such a beast of a deck!
I like the vortical just like the vinyl turntable
man great review
I appreciate the watch and comment.
Waiting for my rev 1 to come to me.
In torn between staying on my sb3 still saving for rev 7. Or upgrading to rev1. Let’s see.
Great and informative video. I have an sb2 and am fresh into mixing. I love it as a starter controller but have been considering rev1 for the option to scratch using scratch tracking. Do you find that feature intuitive and helpful on the rev 1? Also can the rev1 smoothly use other softwares like traktor, Ableton live, or rekordbox?
Thanks for the watch Josh. The scratch tracking option is very intuitive as long as you are using the crossfader in it’s normal mode and not reverse (hamster mode). As far as I’ve been informed it’s not midi mappable yet. Maybe someone will figure out patch or maybe in a firmware update.
I have the gold SB3 and the gold Rev too....but dang...the Rev1's new tiny buttons sound and click horrible compared to the SB3....I wanted it for "scratch bank"....but the button size I can get over I guess....but not the cheaper feeling / sounding pads.... Rev 7 up next.
I have a SB2 Serato Pro License. Can I use that for the Rev1 as well or I have to buy again specificaly for Rev1?
Should be plug and play with your existing license.
What about sound quality is it an improvement from the sb3?
Hi Michael.Thanks for the question and giving me a watch.
To me they sound the same. I listened in the headphones and a pair of EV Evolve 50s.
Both Have 24 Bit 48khz soundcards. I didnt mention it in the video since it seems sound quality is more of a subjective thing. I always hear people debating over speakers,headphones ythat some think sound amazing ,some say they dont.
I had an ddj 2 then to a sb 3 and I compared both of them output quality and I realized I had to nearly max the master gain of the sb3 inorder to match up with the sb2 at half way so I dislike my sb3 for that and some other reasons, this is why I would like to know if the sound card is actually better before I can purchase the rev 1.
Anyone having issues with the microphone sounds bad? This sound card or another issue my mic audio has no power and sounds not so good.
Sorry to hear that Bibba. I haven’t had any issues with any of my mics. I use the Rode Podmic, Rode Wireless go or a Shure Sm58. Is your mic a condenser or dynamic ?
WILL THIS WORK WITH VIRTUAL DJ?
Virtual DJ does have a support page just for that. Here it is: www.virtualdj.com/manuals/hardware/pioneer/ddjrev1/installation.html
Hope that helps RJ. Thanks for the watch and comment. It helps the channel immensely.
N version in pioneer means its gold-dipped "NUGGET"
love it.It's so simple. I '"N"ever wouldve thought of that. I will definitely mention it in the tutorial.
Thanks. Also for giving my lil video a watch.
Does rev 1 has a slip mode sir?
Yes. I have a full tutorial of the features here: czcams.com/video/Q70-pvqqh-g/video.html
I have the TTx
Fantastic turntables.
Does the rev1 work with VDJ? Thanks
Not as far as I know.
@@idjchance thanks
Happy to help and grateful for the watch.
It does now
@@aj6761 thank you so much appreciate you
A Master Cue Mix Knob would gave been useful on these units … ?! (think they ditched it after the SB-2; not sure why, other than cost … ?!)
I agree. I always use that knob. It’s why I use my SX2 as my main controller. The SX3 had it, not on the playing surface but on the front panel which didn’t work for me.
No Slip control/button on the Rev1, either … Do you see that as an issue, at all?!
@@kierenmoore3236 I’ve never saw the use for the slip mode. I always used vinyl mode in everything
The position of the pitch on the Rev has absolutely zero practical advantage, it’s a load of crap. Gimmick to the limit.
