The DJM-S7 is a 2-channel scratch-style performance mixer from Pioneer DJ. It has a clean layout like the DJM-S9 and DJM-S11, with a large Load button and 16 Performance Pads, eight per deck. Pad modes are independent, so you can use Hot Cues on channel 1 and Roll on channel 2 at the same time.
It includes all 22 Beat FX from the DJM-S11, which you control with large effect levers. An OLED display shows the name and beat value of the active effect. The Magvel Fader Pro crossfader has a knob mounting shaft that is 30 percent more rigid in the vertical direction. With Loop MIDI, the effect levers repeatedly send MIDI messages to Serato DJ Pro and rekordbox in a set beat cycle. Hot Cue, sampler and key shift-up are preassigned to the FX Select buttons.
You can pair a smartphone over Bluetooth and play its audio through the master output or either channel. A dedicated knob and fader on the front set its level. The built-in USB hub lets you connect CDJs, DJ controllers and other devices to the dual USB-A ports. Two laptops can connect to the dual USB-B ports. The mixer unlocks Serato DJ Pro and is a Hardware Unlock device for rekordbox, including DVS control of both. Serato DJ Pro features include Combo Pad mode, Scratch Bank and Gate Cue.
