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
