Pioneer DJ DJ Controller, Black, (DDJSB3)

Product Information

Also, the Serato DJ and Rekordbox are literally similar, so there's no need to use the Rekordbox on the SB3. What software does DDJ-400 use? Loop controls on the DDJ-SB3 are similar to older DDJ-SB controllers: They consist of an Auto Loop button that toggles a loop on or off, plus you’ve got loop length half and double buttons. Pioneer DJ DDJ controllers have used this system for years, and can be found from the cheapest of models to flagship units like the DDJ-RZX.

On the contrary, the Pioneer DDJ SB3 has a basic, traditional mixer design with all necessary functions.Out of the box, the DDJ-SB3 works with Serato DJ and the DDJ-400 works with Rekordbox DJ. The DDJ-SB3 is also compatible with Virtual DJ 8, while compatibility with the DDJ-400 is forthcoming. The DDJ-400 does away with the individual FX sections and instead distils all FX control into a Beat FX strip that sits beside the mixer at the centre of the unit. This is consistent with the Beat FX that you’d find on a Pioneer DJ DJM mixer such as the DJM-900NXS2, DJM-450, DJM-750MK2 and so on. This allows beginner DJs to get used to tweaking with Beat FX at home so it isn’t confusing when getting behind a CDJ/DJM set-up, which admittedly isn’t as intuitive as using the individual FX sections of past DDJ controllers. 5.
