DJing is serious business — very serious indeed. So we must be able to have a laugh sometimes, and that's exactly what the 2manybuttons video does. Being presented with more buttons than tracks, these DJs somehow make it through a set without a clue what they're doing.
It might look like it, but not all 4 channel controllers are created the same. Denon's MC6000 MK2 gets a Serato facelift, and stands out in the crowd.
After a messy split, it seems that Pioneer DJ and Serato are giving it another go in the shape of the slightly updated DDJ-SZ2 controller.
Something for the weekend courtesy of DJ Cable and DJ Complexion, rocking a short set at the Hyman Archive on the Denon DJ MC7000 Serato DJ controller.
The Xone K2 controller shouts the modular buzz word loud, in the general direction of Berlin. Chris Cartledge turns up the volume.
This week has seen some big announcements from the Serato camp. A lot of this is around the new Serato DJ DVS add-on that lets suitable partner controllers run Serato DJ DVS without the need of external interfaces. You just plug in your turntables and media players and you're off. But we're still not sure how much of a need there is. Serato will have done their homework, but we'd like you to tell us if the need is real, perceived, or non-existent.
