The Pioneer DDJ-REV1 is a scratch-style 2-channel DJ controller designed for seamless integration with Serato DJ Lite software. With a battle-style layout inspired by professional DJ setups, it offers an authentic experience for scratch and open-format DJs alike. Its design mirrors a pro DJM-S mixer combined with PLX turntables, providing intuitive control over mixing and scratching techniques. The controller features large 154 mm jog wheels, giving users precise control ideal for advanced scratching. The longer, 60 mm tempo sliders allow for fine tempo adjustments, while the repositioned Performance Pads within the mixer section make triggering effects, samples, and scratches effortless. The innovative Lever FX lets DJs add creative effects dynamically with a simple lever motion, either in short bursts or locked on. The Tracking Scratch feature supports scratch performance by automatically returning music to the cue point after each scratch motion, making it beginner-friendly yet powerful. Additionally, it is the first Pioneer DJ controller at this level to mix microphone input with master output internally, perfect for streaming or live performances without extra equipment. Compatible with both Serato DJ Lite and Serato DJ Pro, the DDJ-REV1 is class compliant and USB bus powered, making setup quick and driver-free. Its compact and lightweight build is ideal for DJs on the move or those wanting to replicate pro battle setups at home or gigs.
Key Features:
- Brand-new battle-style layout:
Designed to emulate professional PLX turntables and DJM-S mixers, this layout maximises space and control for mixing and scratching techniques. - Bigger jog wheels:
Featuring 154 mm jog wheels, the same size as higher-end models, they offer enhanced precision and responsiveness for scratching. - Lever FX:
Apply dynamic effects easily using levers that allow momentary or locked effects, freeing up hands for other tasks like scratching.
Professional Design for Scratch DJs:
The DDJ-REV1’s battle-style design replicates a setup preferred by pro DJs, combining a DJM-S series mixer with dual PLX turntables. This controller provides an authentic tactile experience with ample space for mixing and scratching. The 60 mm tempo sliders allow for smooth tempo changes and the repositioned Performance Pads enable intuitive triggering of samples, cues, and effects without interrupting your flow. The larger jog wheels are ideal for scratch DJs seeking precise control, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced performers.
Integrated Features for Seamless Performance:
One standout feature is the mixed microphone audio, a first for a Pioneer controller in this range. This allows you to plug in a mic and have your voice mixed directly into the master output, ideal for streaming and live sets without extra hardware. The Tracking Scratch feature helps maintain timing and flow by automatically returning the track to the cue point after scratching, easing the learning curve while supporting professional scratch patterns. Full integration with Serato DJ Lite ensures plug-and-play usability with an intuitive software interface.
Compatibility and Convenience:
The DDJ-REV1 is class compliant and USB bus powered, meaning no drivers are needed for quick and hassle-free setup on both Mac and PC. It supports 4-deck control, allowing for versatile mixing across multiple tracks, and offers free access to Serato DJ Lite with an optional upgrade to Serato DJ Pro. Firmware updates are easily managed through Pioneer’s Firmware Update Manager, ensuring your controller remains up to date with the latest features and performance improvements.
