Each player half of the DDJ-SB3 is equipped with eight performance pads with a bunch of handy options like hot cues, effects, a sampler, beat jump, roll, slicer and a transposer for harmonic mixing. This allows you to alter the pitch of your track easily. If you'd prefer not to spend all your time on this, then the key lock is your answer. Another cool addition is the fact you've got control over four decks by toggling between 1 and 3, and 2 and 4. a trio of effects and an independent looping section complete this Pioneer DDJ-SB3!

Tips or comments about this product

Echt een top DJ-controller. Ik heb met deze controller eerder gewerkt, maar toen had ik hem zelf nog niet thuis. En nu heb ik hem zelf gekocht voor een geweldige prijs + kortingcodes. What a thing of a beaty. Alles werkt naar behoren. Echt een top controller. Zeker een aanrader.

Super leuke controller voor een beginnende DJ, compact, makkelijk mee te nemen, degelijk, leuke effecten en werkt mooi met Serato DJ Lite

Na lang vergelijken, met name de software, toch gekozen voor Serato en dus deze controller.
Nu blijkt Serato het enige dj programma dat geen externe geluidskaarten ondersteunt en je verplicht de interne geluidskaart van de controller (RCA uitgang) te gebruiken. Erg amateuristisch als je het mij vraagt. Rekordbox, ook van Pioneer, heeft deze functie dus wel.

Direct terug in de doos om retour te sturen en Traktor Kontrol S2 besteld.
Ik ben wel erg blij met de retour service van Bax!

Goede controller voor een goede prijs, hij beschikt over de meeste functies die je nodig gaat hebben, en is compact genoeg om makkelijk mee te nemen. De Pad Scratch functie is leuk voor de DJ die wil gaan oefenen met scratchen, maar persoonlijk had ik daar liever iets gezien in de trant van Pitch play oid.

De software (Serato DJ Lite) is prima, maar voor een hoop functies zul je toch moeten upgraden naar Serato PRO, of andere software die deze controller ondersteunt. (Wel even dubbel checken bij de software.)

Voor DJs die hun weg willen vervolgen richting Nexus 2000 systemen raad ik de DDJ-400 aan, omdat deze qua layout meer lijkt op die controllers. En deze komt met Serato DJ PRO ipv Lite.

Pioneer DDJ-SB3: After Two Comes Three

Thursday 1 March 2018 By Lizanne

It wasn't exactly a surprise that there was going to be a successor to the SB2, but no one could imagine anything like the DDJ-SB3! Pioneer have outdone themselves with the brand-new Serato controller. Even though it has the uniform appearance of all their DJ controllers, it sports a unique look all its own thanks to a fruitful collaboration with DJ Jazzy Jeff.
