Hercules DJ Djcontrol Starlight | Pocket USb Controller With Serato Lite, Touch-Sensitive Jog Wheels, Built-In Sound Card And Light Show

Generally good start for any beginner. Control buttons are a little too hard. Feels cheap to press especially doing dj effects and hitting them while following current song beats. Using USB link, both DJuced & Serato works well. Somehow Serato lite laggs when playing beat match on Windows11. Play button tend to lagg behind Master audio. DJuced works well and a lot more features. Good budget set, portable and it does the job well.

Está super cool y sorprendentemente completo para su tamaño

pros: size/weight functionality with traktor / serato great device for $100 CAD or under great features works with traktor (Hercules provides a official .TSI for both v2 and v3) features a 4 channel sound card output for main / headphones headphone output is loud filter knobs are a nice touch rgb led lights are a nice touch and I like how they can be turned off works with free software like Serato lite out of the box (however it's very limited) midi control has a shift function for more mapping ability cons: fx options are very basic but it's not a deal breaker would have liked to see a switch with the treble / gain knob like the bass / filter but what can you do the main output can have a buzzing noise when silent at high volumes depending on the computer it's attached to (tried several shielded and high end cords would get a little buzz on my desktop if my amp was right at max and nothing was playing however it's fine on my laptop I have to think that's something to do with the quality of the usb or power on my desktop) no RCA out just 3.5mm again not a deal breaker ( the audio quality is comparable to a iPhone with a dongle 3.5mm audio imo... not great but not bad ... it's asio for under $100 can't complain ) overall the cons I list really aren't cons just a matter of design but for the price it's a cool device I can carry around with me anywhere my only wish is it would somehow be supported in android but I tried with cross dj and it couldn't detect it , did however output sound .. not a whole lot of dj options on android unfortunately but maybe there is something for iOS , that would sure make this thing cool for carrying around

Pequena e funcional. Ideal para quem precisa tocar em ambientes com pouco espaço para controladoras maiores.

Read some of the other reviews here, written by people who received this product from Amazon for free, who do not seem to know a whole lot about DJ hardware and what to expect from it. I am a professional DJ, and I'd like to give my two cents. I bought this controller just for fun to see how it is. I wasn't sure what to expect from it, but I was beyond pleasantly surprised. This controller comes with Serato DJ Lite, which another reviewer complained about because of the cost associated with upgrading to DJ Pro, and questioned the trustworthiness of Serato. I can assure you that Serato DJ Pro is extremely widely used and respected by pros, and although Lite has limited features and promotes upgrading to Pro, it is still very good software and its shortcomings shouldn't reflect negatively on the controller itself; especially since a Pro license is only $100, which, assuming you already have a laptop, makes your total investment $180 - an extremely reasonable price for a functioning DJ setup, seeing as a single Pioneer CDJ can cost 10x that. Anyway, upon getting the Starlight in the mail, I immediately plugged it in and got to some mixing. The knobs and pitch faders feel very high quality, not too far short of what you'd have on a much more expensive controller. The quality of the audio output is pretty good as well, not superb but no worse than an average smartphone's headphone jack. I saw other reviewers complaining about the inability to connect Bluetooth headphones; this is not a valid complaint, I have never known of any piece of DJ gear with Bluetooth output, mainly due to the lag and quality limitations of Bluetooth audio. I suppose the last thing to address would be the LED lighting, which is certainly corny, but it's a fun touch and I see how it could appeal to new and/or very young DJs. Overall I would recommend this product to anyone looking to try out DJing or to give to their children to do so (assuming they have access to a Windows or Mac laptop). Remember when buying any DJ or audio gear to take online reviews with a grain of salt. Some people don't know enough to judge whether a product is good or bad, but review it anyway, resulting in uninformed and unwarranted praise or criticism. There are lots of good websites to ask questions and inform yourself!
