  • Great Value
Size: MDJ-500
I purchased this used like new for about 120. Everything works great on it. I have not had any glitches or malfunctions probably due to the new firmware update. Definately not as high quality as Pioneers, but don't expect that for this price. I added this as a third player to my serato sl2 setup. The platter works great for cuing, but I do not plan on scratching with it. I recommend using the gemini software to analyze tracks. With BPMs accurately set the looping functions work great and the manual looping works fine too. The main reason I purchased these over the numark mdx500 was the fact that it plays wav files.(although only at 16 bit depth) These are a steal under 200, but I would consider the numarks if buying new and you only play mp3s. ... show more

  • Bad UI with outdated documentation
Size: MDJ-500
I bought 2 of these and a 3 channel Numark mixer to replace my recently deceased Numark Mixdeck Quad. Documentation points you to websites/addresses that don't exist; couldn't find a download to update the firmware, music would hiccup during playback, only works with VirtualDJ and requires midi-mapping knowledge to work with anything else, screen would glitch out while using the selector wheel. I really wanted to like these, but unfortunately, they didn't work out. Returned everything and bought a Mixdeck Express for less money. ... show more

  • Step away from the laptop!
Size: MDJ-500
This baby is just big enough to not feel like a toy or a controller, but it's small enough that it won't weigh me down bringing it out. It booted up and I was playing tracks on it immediately. The response of the slider and jog wheel is incredible. It's very user friendly and simple. I was surprised it came with RCA cables, saved me the trip to the junk bin in the closet! Tracks load in the background while it plays without interrupting play or the wave form, very impressive. I ordered two, I'm only bummed they came in separate shipments because I wanted to mix right away. Oh well, gave me enough time to get a playlist together on USBs. ... show more
