  Audiofanzine FR's review

  Overall Opinion

  (Originally written by faustmix/translated from Audiofanzine FR)
  
  How long have you been using it?
  
  
  
  Three days
  
  
  
  - Which feature do you like best?
  
  
  
  Master/slave mode, a single USB stick (an 8GB model for example) is enough to feed both desks), no need for a CD. It seems easy to use, but watch out when you remove the USB stick and do it properly otherwise you'll have problems!!!
  
  
  
  - Which feature do you like least?
  
  
  
  It takes too long to load files. When the same track is played on both desks I've noticed that that the BPM of the slave is higher than the master (although but I'm not really sure).
  
  
  
  - Did you try any other models before buying it?
  
  
  
  A BST 450 (with unreliable BPM counter), Allen & Health XONE 4D (too complex for me), CDJ MK3 (too expensive).
  
  
  
  - Did you try any other models before buying it?
  
  
  
  No because good quality gear is much too expensive.
  
  
  
  - Based on your experience, would you buy this product again?
  
  
  
  Very good desks but I haven't used them enough to write a more detailed review. Very good value for money.
  
  
  
  I will update this review after spending more time with them...
  
  
  
  Mark: 7/10.

  Thib.is@DJ's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Disappointed ..."

  Overall Opinion

  How long have you use it? A little over a year ...
  
  
  
  Have you tried many other models before buying it?
  
  No.
  
  
  
  What is so special that you like most and least?
  
  
  
  The +:
  
  - Ability to mix with his USB stick
  
  - The size gives the impression of mixing on turntables Pro
  
  - Large platform to wedge his music in the mix.
  
  - Fairly simple menu
  
  
  
  the -:
  
  - The plastic case is very gadget
  
  - Fragility of the motherboard of the device: In less than six months, a problem at startup (
  
  - Jog and Pitch highly sensitive
  
  - BPM Counter not reliable at all
  
  - Box effect interesting, but difficult to use
  
  
  
  How would you rate the quality / price?
  
  I have mixed feelings ... I would say for the price, mix it with USB, it's an advantage ... After level hardware reliability is highly questionable!
  
  
  
  With experience, you do again this choice?
  
  Not at all. In fact, one and a half later, I opted for the purchase of two Pioneer CDJ850 (level reliability, robustness, precision ... there is no picture in comparison with Cortex)
  
  
  
  In summary: I am very disappointed with the reliability and durability of the material ...

  Comments:
  
  
  
  After the first ignition means one of two plates showed a stroke pitch fader halved (while moving the fader from 0 to minus infinity does not work). After 6 months, the pitch did not work altogether more (overnight). Fortunately, the VAS was effective, I could get a brand new platinum within 2 weeks.

  Overall Opinion

  use for 1 week in the evenings, with 2 cdj 400, so I do more testing, so for now, we must grab the blow to the pitch quite sensitive, and BPM which should not trust, but otherwise fairly simple menu, French, sufficient number of USB, good value, I search for another pair

  Aka Zub's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Overall Opinion

  For how long have you been using it?
  
  
  
  Almost a year!
  
  
  
  Did you try many other models before getting this one?
  
  
  
  Not much but enough to make me notice. I mostly hit the vinyl
  
  
  
  What thing do you like most/least about it?
  
  
  
  Pros:
  
  
  
  - The hot cues that allow for continued track, memorize a point, I used a lot.
  
  - Some effects
  
  - The design of the machine
  
  - His grip
  
  - The price
  
  
  
  Cons:
  
  
  
  - The pitch not accurate at all
  
  - The plastic coating, particularly hot button cue that are too hard and do not allow an important clarification.
  
  - Bugs and there are many
  
  What is your opinion about the value for the price?
  
  
  
  I think value for money is not bad but nothing special either. I hesitate to spend time on vinyl for the mix and I start from. I think that in terms of digital deck, if you want hardware that hold the road would have to pay a handsome sum and not directly 400th ...
  
  Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?
  
  
  
  With two decks that have the same bugs (Mute have failed pk, as you say that DC is not evisageable live with mine, and I have lots of little bug but annoying enough that m prevents him not to use it anyway). So I will not go that choice but I also can be dropped on a bad run.
  
  
  
  In conclusion, if you're not impatient, as you can afford, take references and other numark ...

  5 months + -
  
  
  
  What is the particular feature you like the least?
  
  cue / play: for me are not sufficiently flexible and open mix cdj sometimes take a half twice. (in night not cool). effects: bcp bcp too long and too boring to make soiremme at home (prvoir external effector) the quality of its effects has refaire.pitch bend: too sensible.le scratch mode (yes but no more). and the big black dot, that c the cortex is sensitive enough because sometimes your sional in his gesture was more abrupt than the house and I had to change a force cortex because the motherboard had u of problem (blockage or cutoff) of the shock (hands) such as cue and play.
  
  
  
  the most?
  
  hot cue (4) loops (4) the sample (4) It also explains below (step) you need to do to annulsupprim or cre, loops, sample, hot cue.la search Moreau are easy rapide.l display (LCD) with the curves of the pieces he yammer an Arrows to show you or you in your reading (rather need pc for beginners) it also tells you if the loops, samples etc. .. are activated with the buttons (on allumplus cran.la possibility to choose to see the cost or time remaining.
  
  
  
  Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
  
  Pioneer CDJ 100 S / Vestax CDR 07/Pioneer 200/Denon DJ CDJ DN S 3700 (excellent platinum).
  
  
  
  How do you report qualitprix?
  
  just what the HDTT-5000 offer. (399 euros pice)
  
  
  
  Exprience with, you will do again this choice?
  
  yes (for me) no (for evening and club) I RSID in a disco bar.
  
  Finally, the last word I would say that the cortex is a good brand but not yet ready-for evening

  déBaf's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Overall Opinion

  Hello,
  
  
  
  I dj occasionally working exclusively with a PC, mouse, and a good old "Hercules DJ Console" mk1 + VDJ Pro and I wanted to reconnect with the pleasure of using food drives, because I found a stash dj Derri re the guts of a computer, is not always!
  
  
  
  APRS short with a lengthy hsit PIONEER MEP 7000 and from NUMARK DDS 80 I finally opt for two single drives ... it's recess for the economic aspect and the possibility s offered by bbte I opt for HDTT 5000 ...
  
  I like the least> finish: I prfr an aluminum chassis, but good for the price, ok
  
  > Buttons: missing a bit of flexibility
  
  
  
  I like the most> wheel: prcise and without latency, trs hardness close touch vinyl
  
  
  
  > Hot cue buttons: flawless precision also
  
  
  
  > Search titles: really impeccable, you have the choice of mode file browser or search by genre, artist, title, keywords ... This means of the Fast Fashion to a database and ... the ball is short
  
  
  
  > The possibility to play on the same support with both drives connected to M / S
  
  
  
  > The software is very well done with a range of possible rglages the door for all, navigating the menus with the scroll wheel or the Arrows
  
  
  
  In short, nothing more than the other view, I know ... but I'm discovering all of hte other features offered
  
  In any case, I am sr once acquired all the automation of these drives, they become a formidable weapon!
  
  =======
  
  EDIT:
  
  =======
  
  
  
  Voil recently, I'm hand with these drives and I add little things .... qq
  
  
  
  1) I had to open one of my readers, because the blue LED dcorative in the bottom of the wheel n'clairait more! a little bit of soldering iron arsolu the problem either, but it rlant when I think it's the new stuff! j'espre it is an exceptional case!
  
  
  
  2) The buttons are really too hard! hard rubber keys and a better suspension shook welcome
  
  
  
  3) the wheel in "pitch" is too sensitive I got, it must be dosed sparingly otherwise the Draillant ensured it would be good programmers cortex prvoient the possibility of parameter TRERE the sensitivity of the jog in a day next time
  
  
  
  Voil if not a hand, they nevertheless that they are good readers and that j'spre cortex guys reading this ....

  funkad19's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Overall Opinion

  Hi all before writing my opinion I would say that these are my first decks and I am a neophyte
  
  How long have you use it?
  
  For a month
  
  
  
  - What is so special that you like most and least?
  
  What I like most: The accuracy of pitch, effects, the feel of a jog with scracth made that I find very good, disign, function sample looks pretty but I do also serves ever, I lack practice.
  
  
  
  the least: the buttons are a bit loops done wrong, the buttons in relief and a little bigger would desirable,
  
  - Have you tried many other models before buying it?
  
  Yes the CDJ 1000MK3 good store but it was just to make me drool nothing seri
  
  
  
  - How would you rate the quality / price?
  
  EXCELLENT value for money, nothing to say frankly that the bomb I'm happy
  
  
  
  - With experience, you do again this choice? ...
  
  Its depends on the budget, if I had I would have taken much of the pioneer Sinoma but if you're poor and you want the good stuff go for it!
  
  Many bug was present at the output but I have to buy is new, the update was already done
  
  
  
  In short, good and started well for business and very intuitive
  
  
  
  I put 8 / 10 for the ergonomic buttons sample / loop.
  
  
  
  Cordially

  Overall Opinion

  Hi all!
  
  
  
  I want to say it's a very good thing that happens Cortex (finally) to France to shake a little hérarchie established
  
  
  
  if at the beginning of 5000 HDTT was full of bugs (in addition to Cramer via static electricity ...) Today we arrive at something very correct, especially for the price
  
  touching or nearly identical to a CDJ 800, conservation of loops / settings as a CDJ 1000, notes the shovel, and since the last day of school (via USB) was a scratch very clean, and menus Rapid much more practical than more detailed menus (always present if needed)
  
  I mix it in club only, along with unbeatable CDJ 1000 (but also much more expensive ...) to 1 / 3 the price, Cortex is very strong, but not yet developed his concept to fold in 2 Queen CDJ 1000. .. at least I makes me happy in a box (I have no turntables since I sold my 8 AXIS me pay GENELEC in monitoring ...)
  
  
  
  USB flash drives with 16GB to 30 euros, it's just great, no need to lug around an external hard drive .... I arrive at the club with a playlist of sick .....
  
  around the neck!
  
  
  
  http://www.nuostore.com/
  
  
  
  I think I take the 600 home DMIX Cortex in the next update next month, because there are still some bug in the "combined Cortex"
  
  
  
  short, a good 9 / 10 for HDTT 5000 since the last update, we can have two for the price of a 800, totally amazing (or so is that Pioneer is a little too pay the highest quality. ..)
