Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I am a professional club dj and purchased these cdjs to play at friends houses, where I would not have to be so concerned with the expensive damage involved in using my other CDJs (Pioneer CDJ 1000MK2). Nothing worse then someone spilling beer all over your expensive gear by accident.
These are not high quality cdjs. If you have ever played on Denons, pr Pioneers, they do not compair. There is a lag when adjusting your tempo and fine tuning your mix by using the platter. There is also a lag with the pitch adjustment alone. Maybe .03 second lag. It gets really annoying and makes fast mixing difficult. Once you get use to it however, its smooth sailing. I was very frustrated until I got use to the lag and found ways to make it work with that lag.
The cd insert slot is not a straight feed cd slot. This is the old fashioned plate that comes out and you place your cd on the plate, and then push it into the cdj. So it is not a fast insert. It also takes about 5 seconds to actually load the cd, and that is with 1 or 2 tracks on the cd. So it is very time consuming.
I have had no problem with the sound, The sound quality is great, assuming your music is at 320kpbs or greater. The display is good, you can adjust how your view your track time. From how many minutes/second left in the track or how far into the track you are. Tracks can be selected easily with the track selection knob.
You can set your own cue to begin anywhere in track. That is a plus.
THIS IS NOT A SCRATCH CDJ. YOU CANNOT SCRATCH WHAT SO EVER ON THIS CDJ. Also this is not Serato responsive because of that option. You can use Serato with it, but it will not give the full Serato options because it is not a scratch cdj. I do not know if you can use Virtual DJ, I have been asked but do not know.
In all, this is an ok set up for a new dj, or a budget dj, or for travel like I used it for. I kept mine in a smoke and child free home, so it stayed in good working order until I sold it. Hope this review helps you.
