Pioneer DJ DDJ-FLX4 2-deck Rekordbox and Serato DJ Controller - Graphite

Product Information

Audio dropouts: This can be caused by a number of factors, including driver issues, software conflicts, and hardware problems. The sound quality is good enough for the price, the headphones are loud enough for a bus-powered unit. The FLX4 supports Bluetooth connectivity, but if you prefer to use a wired connection, the USB-C port allows you to connect your device and record microphone audio along with all other audio without the need for an external sound card. Taking a look right out of the box, the DDJ FLX4 comes across as a fairly simplistic DJ controller. For DJs wanting to make use of all that Serato DJ has to offer, the FLX4 has the option to work with the popular platform in addition to Rekordbox, right out of the box!

The layout of the controls makes it easy to learn to DJ and is inherited from professional Pioneer DJ products. Everything is simple to use and neatly arranged, which also makes the controller compact enough to take anywhere you want to practice or perform. Not being limited to Rekordbox is a big win this time around as newbies now have the freedom to try two major platforms on one bit of kit!The DDJ-FLX4 is sure to become known as a staple in the industry, inspiring many to start DJing. As with the DDJ-400 before it, it offers an effective and simple layout whilst roadmapping the way to professional Pioneer DJ club equipment. The FLX4 is perfect for beginners, as it has all the necessary features and its inputs and outputs are kept to a minimum for ease of use. To connect your headphones, simply use the 1/8th inch “mini-stereo” TRS connection on the front of the device. Coming in early 2023, if you want the convenience of DJing on the go or do not want to use a computer, the Rekordbox app is for you! To ensure proper audio output, make sure that the audio settings are correct. Here is how they should appear in the Preferences tab:

Central channel meters highlight your levels, but no Master Level meter exists. Not something I expect from a controller at this price range but still worth mentioning. The central section also features a navigation knob and load buttons at the top for remote access to library browsing. Launch the Rekordbox mobile app and turn your mobile device screen horizontal to close the browse screen.Despite its different USB bus cable options, the Pioneer DJ DDJ FLX4 offers a USB power adapter. This means you won’t need to rely solely on your USB cable to draw power unless you’re planning to connect your phone at the same time. If the setting PC MASTER OUT reads: Off, t hen the Master Output will read DDJ-FLX4 WASAPI : MASTER. You can use the DJ software rekordbox or Serato DJ Lite for free by connecting your PC/Mac to complete your DJ setup. And if you want to upgrade to Serato DJ Pro, you can buy a license or subscription for the premium version of the software. Engage this, and your crossfader becomes an almost foolproof way to blend between any two songs, regardless of genre or BPM. The Pioneer DDJ-FLX4 is a top-of-the-line DJ controller that offers unmatched performance and versatility. It is equipped with highly responsive jog wheels, allowing for precise control and seamless scratching. The 16 performance pads enable DJs to effort
