FELIPE Q.: A parte eletrônica funciona muito bem. Mas a carcaça/caixa/ carenagem passa a Impressão de ser frágil de tão leve.

Gabriel Bao: A controladora é muito boa realmente da para tocar como os grandes, é fácil de aprender e claro que vai tempo de prática também. Existem muitas possibilidades de funções e formas de mixagens deixando o seu aprendizado cada vez mais prazeroso. Porém o preço é alto.

Chad: I'm a novice level DJ, mostly small parties and just online having fun kinda thing. But was surprised when this arrived that almost the entire thing is plastic. And actually rather hollow feeling.

But it works great, I'd say to start it's got a lot going on, between the hardware and software there's lots to learn, more to master.

But it's so fun to use, and I've had a BLAST mixing stuff up.

Would buy again if I somehow needed to. But would really probably upgrade instead of replace.

Donny D.: This is a pretty sweet Controller for the money! I recently started a mobile DJ business and this controller looked like it work well and I like the price, especially since I spent a lot on other audio equipment. I'm not much for RecordBox software, although it works fine on my Rog Strix PC and I have no problem mixing songs. The DDJ-400 Controller performs very well and is pretty well made and solid. I really need to take the time to learn more of what it can do. I'm not a beginner DJ but am unfamiliar with this specific controller and I started mixing and didn't even read the manual yet. lol I think this definitely an affordable and remarkable controller for new DJs just starting out. So far, I have been able to load mp3, flac, and aiff audio content in RecordBox free version. I still need to register this product. I believe it comes with RecordBox full on registering it, but unsure at this time.

Jake DillerJake Diller: If you’re looking to: 1 learn to DJ/mix tracks/play better music at parties; 2 improve your skills at the above from beginner to intermediate after using a smaller/more entry level controller; 3 better understand especially electronic music, this is for you.

There are tons of tutorials using this specifically controller on YouTube, this controller has tons of capabilities, and when used in conjunction with your computer, you can really make your setup, with this as the remote so to speak, sing. With one song being controlled by one side, and one on the other, plus the various effects and manners in which you can modify the tracks’ sounds, this controller allows you to experience a musical playground of sorts, where you’re in control.

You will use this with RekordBox, Pioneer’s proprietary controller software - in this you will organize your tracks into crates (which are folders of music ((can’t have duplicates, organize the contents - it’s just to house tracks like all of your House music, let’s say))), and playlists. On the software you can set cue points, loops, etc - it will also show the BPM and key of your tracks to help you mix various songs...

Levi Larsen: This thing really feels like pro equipment. I used to spin vinyl back in the 90s and I wanted to get some practice in the new school of DJing. I am super happy with this. I built a lil PC for this controller to dedicate to music production and mixing/remixing. Software has lots of options in it. The software is like 50% of a controller and this one has the most options for a non upgraded version that I've seen. I only gave 4 stars because the USB jack is slightly loose on the back, and it had a small scratch on the face of it between the mid and low knobs on deck 2. (It appears to be brand new as promised, looks like a slight factory blimish) It's is very minor but if I ever went to resell it might be something someone would notice. It wasn't bad enough to try and return and I am really happy with this product.

Sebastian: Have had it for around 6 months and the controller works geat, haven't had any issues with it, sound quality fron the sound card is more powerfull then I expected, works perfect for home/small events due to it's portability and easy set up, also really good as a starter and back up controller due to the layout which is pretty much the basic from all club set ups so if you learn to use it you are ready to jump on any CDJ's thanks to the standarized format.

If I had to give it's pros and cons:
Pros:
Easy to set up
Really portable
Easy to learn on
Cheap
Full Rekordbox Lisence

Cons:
Mixer is tight and knobs small so you will need practice to adapt
Can't disable scratch mode so carefull touching the wheels
Software does lag sometimes because it's still pretty new
To use on bigger gigs sound card might not be enough

Overall:
It's a great begginer/back up controller due to it's portability and standarzed layout, even thought some might say knobs and faders feel cheap it is a really affordable controller so knobs and fader work really well for the price point this contriller is at, sound card works great for home build or small events...
