All user reviews of 5/5 for the Pioneer DDJ-SZ

I have it for one week

I tried the ddj sx cdj 850 mk2 to 2000 etc.

The +:
- Dual soundcard to change between several dj mac
- Ability to mix in with his mk2 noisemap
- Unlike other reviews, jog are responding to perfection, no need for adjustment of sensitivity! Can scratch without difficiltés five fingers of a. I think that the problem of sensitivity jog on models of "avant output" of the product and therefore not fully developed. J have posted a video on you tube to show that there s no problem jog.
- Quality of material
- The impression of a djm Grefe on a controller!
- Two independent microphones
- Pad just perfect

It was not really the impression of a mixer controller.

The -:
At the moment I do not think, only time will tell on the strength and reliability of the beast.

The value for money is perfect. A controller for the price may seem excessive, but I really let you do the calculated price of a rule djm 900 srt (who did that serato sound card) and a sp1 ddj two cdj ....

What is the particular feature you like best and least?

The +

- Quality. We feel that it is solid
- The audio quality
- The mixer section with independent sound color fx, independent software
- The jogs (good size and the LED display is superb)
- The multicolored pads. With different colors, you know more easily what section it is (Hot cue, roll, etc. ..).
And you can immediately distinguish which type of cue is the pad.



The -
- The touch sensitivity of Jogs.
Unlike the SX, there is no way to adjust the touch sensitivity of jogs (not to be confused with the Jog feeling adjust, it is present).
Depending on how the finger is placed on the jog, it will be recognized by the SZ ... or not! If we set flat, it works well, if we put the fingertips, the SZ does not see! The problem is described by several people on the forums and I hope that Pioneer will fix this in a future firmware.

- No specific mapping for Traktor (which I use with the SX). I could make one, but ...
- Oscillator Some effects are in my opinion a little gadget (Horn and Siren).
- Weight



How would you rate the quality / price?
Correct. If we compare the price of 2 + 1 DJM CDJ is pretty good. In any case, this is what motivated my choice.



With experience, you do again this choice?
Not enough feedback but for now I would say yes
