Pioneer DJ DDJ-FLX4 vs DDJ-REV1 (Watch before you buy!)

I hate the play button being on the outside bottom corner of the Rev1. It's too easy to accidentally hit it when you reach for your mouse. I'm thinking about selling it and switching to a rekordbox controller.

Virtual DJ работает на REV1?

Love my FLX4 , great controller all around, and now you have the steams too 😎😎

Cheers !

FLX doesn’t work with Serato DJ

GOOD REVIEW! FLX4 looks more mid-level entry-level style. My friend had a old Pioneer 1000STR4 and let me borrow it for a while, it was fun jamming together tracks on something pretty new age retro. The STR4 has a intergrated controller for playing one CD Disk in the unit and I think one or two possibly 1/4 inch inputs L/R. A long way weve come! Im picking up the DDJ-REV1 today!

Damn, Daniel Radcliffe is doing YT reviews? 😳

I own a ddj-sx and I still prefer my rev1 lol it’s design is super comfortable it’s got just what you need and not a lot of extra bells n whistles that are unnecessary at the end of the day but that’s just my preference

Can I use stems in serato dj lite?

Get the Rev 1 love it..

I’m looking for something new. I have the numark mixtrack pro fx and i like it. But thinking about getting the pioneer flx4 but that rev 1 looks nice aswell. Any help fellow dj’s? I’m a garage dj, just a hobby for me. I’ve played off and on for a couple years. I started again during the pandemic and now I’m more into it. Hip hop, cumbias, old school is my go to but looking for ideas. Thanks, and i must say that mixing is my stress relief.

hello dj..can i ask is it possible to have beatroll on mixtrack pro 3?..thank u

Thank you sir! I bought the Rev1 as my mini back up...i have a SRT and a SR2...this controller is so mobile and makes work easy

which one has more refined faders for trance music mixing?

which one is better for techno djing? for a begginer

This video has been very useful for me to decide which one I should buy. Thank you!

i'm music producer and beginner rapper but never used DJ! yea i do all my stuff in my productions softwares so my question is can these help or work with software like FL studio and Cubase? or it's just for mixing music in parties? when im on stage i got dj already playing my music and add effects but never used DJ so i'm just wondering, thank you

What is battle djing? I want to start but am clearly brand new to this/clueless lol so not sure which one to choose. I want to mix and mash and remix the most 😎

I want the ddj rev1

I’m brand new to dj ing, but have been fascinated for years. I just picked up a Flx4 to start off with. I like the seamless integration with Rekordbox as well as the new innovations Pioneer has incorporated. This is only a hobby for me currently, as I’m primarily a professional musician, but I wanted a controller that was professional while still approachable.

Thank you!!!

I like the rev 1 but I’m not a fan of serato I like rekord box better and the flex 4 allows you to use both the rev 1 is a serato only controller so I’ll be selling mine

Good comparison! I bought the Flex 4 yesterday. 💪

Serato is horrible

FLX 4 is the only controller with USB-c, SO YOU know it's well engineered and modern.

FLX4 is leaps and bounds superior to Rev1.

Can I connect FLX4 to my Marshall speaker?

It is a no brainer the DDJ-FlX4. No house or techno Dj is goung to like those faders on top corner of the DDJ-Rev..lol

Ms Rachel baby

Tnx for the comparision! And for Your work tnx too. I've learnt a lot because of You and I appreciate it :)

You always have something new to share and that keeps me myself educating 👍

I recently got the rev 1 for Christmas and I love it especially the jog wheels and it's very sturdy for a controller and doesn't feel to plastic like some controllers and also love the tempo feature on top

Will be coming soon
Will be coming soon
THEREFORE it's flexible.... Uuuh, no, it is in fact limited, not flexible.
Do you even speak English?

FLX4 is out of stock everywhere in the US.

I love my DDJ-REV1 got this magnificent little controller when it first came out. A huge upgrade from my DDJ-SB3. Many DJ’s have the REV1 as a backup to their primary system.
Personally my REV1 is my workhorse device taken to most gigs. My Wedding, Formal event, larger client device is my RANE ONE.
The ONLY thing I would change on the REV1 is give it RGB lighting! Those Amber lights don’t inspire much and DJing daytime events outside 🤷🏽‍♂️🤣 you can barely see the glow.

If anyone is interested - I have a MIDI mapping for djay Pro / FLX4 (posted on the Algoriddim community forums). Works on iOS, macOS and over Bluetooth.

i wanna learn to scartch but... i dont know if ddj rev1 is really way better than fl4

Great comparison of the 2 and i appriciate the background info about the lay out on the Rev 1

Of these two i chose the Numark Platinum FX. Rekordbox does not feature stems so it's not much of a solution. Unfortunately I'll probably have to buy Virtual DJ as it seems better than Serato.

Can somebody help me with virtual DJ on windows 11 not showing my iTunes library and I the option checked that’s supposed to be checked Share iTunes Library XML with other applications

which one is better for techno!?

Only down side is no XLR out 😭

great video, do you know if rekordbox is going to have stems built in the software like serato and is that going to be a paid upgrade? i currently have the ddi rx controller with rekordbox but would love to be able to try out stems would i have to get a new controller to try it or is it worth waiting to see if rekordbox do something?

cancelled my order of 2 weeks waiting(they said feb 16) to order one that was 30 bucks cheaper and they said jan 30...
appearently im on the waiting list as 253 and ill get it in april now :(

Flx4 is perfect for algo djay app in bluetooth

Which one is better with DJ pro AI? Does the stem work with both serato and DJ pro ai?

FLX4 EDM
Rev 1 Hip Hop

flx4 is perfect for for mobile djs. work smart not hard :)
