    Incredible

    Mixing on CD player for a long time, I wanted to get into the world of digital compact with all this new controller Pioneer seemed to be one of the most comprehensive on the market.

    Preface

    I always mix mp3 files, whether on CD, USB or via Ethernet with the PRO DJ Link Rekorbox.
    For my part the mix has started on a pair of CDJ-400 around a DJM-400. Can practice when we mix mp3, some cool effects but it quickly turns round.

    Mixing on CD player for a long time, I wanted to get into the world of digital compact with all this new controller Pioneer seemed to be one of the most comprehensive on the market.

    Preface

    I always mix mp3 files, whether on CD, USB or via Ethernet with the PRO DJ Link Rekorbox.
    For my part the mix has started on a pair of CDJ-400 around a DJM-400. Can practice when we mix mp3, some cool effects but it quickly turns round.
    I then go on a set of two CDJ-900 plugées ass a DJM-700. The mix was perfect comfort, decks and mixer very good quality, ergonomics, ideal working surface, multiple features that shorten the grunt work thanks to the ethernet connection Rekorbox (drag / drop mp3 files directly on the plates connected in network) and the analysis pre pieces therein.
    It set up very very innovative, but also very pleasant to use.
    Nevertheless there is still a problem: the size, the weight and size of the set when it is nestled in a flight authority. Everything can be up to 120cm long and weigh 30 kilos with a good weight of the flight. Otherwise easily transportable say especially when you lodge on the 5th floor of a building without lift. (I still sue ... Yeah it's disgusting)

    This is where the real story begins bro, the rest was just a scenario and a few literary remains of the tank I should do .. (Or not?)

    The DDJ Sx is a great device, I'm not going to describe the feeling you get when you open a box of Pioneer, everyone here must know. But still, when you leave the beast of his skin ass movie, what is to be said: it throws.
    Almost perfect finish, hit solid and reliable, many brushed aluminum but at least it avoids the foul fingerprints pals curious. It's beautiful, it's clean, it's bright. on the other hand is Japanese.

    Serato DJ is installed, the plug on all its small branch Genelecs his little HD25 (it also works with other brands normally), you turn the SX and after illumination Started a little overrated, it's gone.

    Everything is very intuitive, no need to touch a computer that serves as the control panel. You can practically do it directly from the round DDJ. We will draw on the support of its files directly on the decks. This is the bomb, everything is simple.
    I will not tell you the condensed functionality rather extraordinary, there's a video on YouTube very explicit.

    on the other hand I can tell you that you will never regret your purchase. A relatively affordable (certainly more than a traditional set-up disk and eats with mixer), was a war machine available that can satisfy all tastes creative with near-zero latency, an intuitive and remarkable efficiency. The sound is good, the filters of the mixer are balanced.
    And that is both large enough to be a comfortable and quite light and compact to take on an evening rears its teu ... his nose. And thanks to the extensive connection, you can connect to almost be on any type of broadcast! Yeah! This is great!

    In short, the DDJ SX is the ideal compromise between portability, quality, comfort, durability, simplicity, versatility, and a small one for the road will say almost perfection.

    Buy with confidence if you hang on your years old CDJ 1000 and you hesitate to take the plunge.

    PS: beware SYNC button ... It is both discreet and obvious. Without reopening the debate, better maintain his ear banning it because when we get a mix of good old turntables would not seem to screw up his set as a beginner that you would want to throw rolls PQ soaked white rotten eggs.
