The AlphaTheta DDJ-FLX2 is a compact 2-channel DJ controller for rekordbox, Serato DJ Lite, djay and Traktor Play. It works with a PC, Mac, iPhone, iPad, or Android phone or tablet. It is a controller, not a standalone player, so the music and the DJ app stay on the connected device.
It runs on USB bus power and connects by USB Type-C or Bluetooth MIDI. Over Bluetooth MIDI, the controller needs its own power from a USB power adapter or a mobile battery. Smart Fader adjusts volume, BPM and bass as you move the crossfader to help keep transitions smooth. Smart CFX, used with the Performance Pads, lets you recreate complex effect techniques. The pads also cover Hot Cue, Pad FX, Sampler and Loop functions.
Plug powered speakers into the 3.5 mm master output, or practice through the speakers in your laptop, phone or tablet. An iPhone or iPad connects with the included USB Type-C cable and rekordbox for iOS, and can play through the device's own speaker. An Android phone or tablet also connects by USB Type-C but plays through speakers plugged into the controller. Streaming from Apple Music, Beatport Streaming, SoundCloud Go+/DJ, Spotify and TIDAL works through a compatible DJ app, each with its own subscription. Which services are available depends on the app and your country.
