Our take on the Pioneer DJ DDJ-REV1 Controller for Serato DJ

The DDJ-REV1 is Pioneer DJ's entry-level two-channel controller for Serato DJ Lite, built in a battle layout: the tempo faders sit above the mixer and the platters are pushed out to the edges, the arrangement scratch DJs and turntablists are used to. It has 16 performance pads with Hot Cue, Auto Loop, Roll, Slicer-style Trans, Beat Jump and Scratch Bank, plus a two-channel mixer with a built-in soundcard, three-band EQ, Sound Color filter and lever-triggered Beat FX. It is bus powered over USB and controls decks 3 and 4 in the full Serato DJ. Against the DDJ-FLX4 and Numark Mixtrack, it trades jog-wheel size and streaming-friendly features for the battle layout and effects levers, so it suits beginners who want to scratch rather than generalists who want the widest feature set.

About the Pioneer DJ DDJ-REV1 Controller for Serato DJ

The Pioneer DJ DDJ-REV1 is a 2-channel battle-style controller for Serato DJ. It includes a free copy of Serato DJ Lite. Download the software to a PC or Mac, connect the controller with the supplied USB cable, and start mixing. It is bus powered. It can also control decks 3 and 4 in Serato DJ.

Each deck has 8 performance pads, 16 in total. They cover Hot Cue, Auto Loop, Tracking, and Sampler functions, plus Beat Jump, Roll, Trans, and Scratch Bank modes. Scratch Bank loads scratch samples from four banks assigned in Serato DJ Lite or Pro, and can start from a specific point. The Tracking Scratch mode returns the music to the cue point when you move the jog wheel backward or lift your hand away.

The center panel is a 2-channel mixer with a built-in soundcard. Each channel has a trim, a 3-band EQ, a two-way Sound Color filter (HP/LP), and a level fader. Effects levers trigger Beat FX. Pull a lever down and hold it for a short burst of effect, or push it up to lock the effect on. The master output is mixed with microphone audio, so you can add your voice and stream from Serato DJ Lite without an external soundcard or mixer.
