Pioneer DJ has a strong history in the DJ industry and is well-respected by both professionals and enthusiasts. From its early innovations in digital DJ technology to its current status as a top industry player, Pioneer DJ has always focused on providing high-quality and innovative equipment for DJs around the globe so here’s our Top 3 Controllers!
1. Pioneer DJ 4-Channel DJ Pro DDJ-FLX10 Controller
This controller for Rekordbox and Serato is an excellent choice for most DJs. It primarily works with Rekordbox, Pioneer DJ's own software, which is used across all their equipment, from budget controllers to professional DJ gear. Additionally, it is compatible with Serato, another popular DJ software. With its four channels and standard club layout, it offers a familiar interface for experienced DJs and helps new DJs get accustomed to the setup they will encounter with pro DJ booth equipment.

2. Pioneer DJ DDJ-REV7
This is a scratch controller aimed at the Serato crowd, Serato being the dominant platform in that scene. Its mixer resembles standalone scratch mixers like the Pioneer DJ DJM-S7, featuring just two channels. Unlike the other controllers in this roundup, it has motorized jog wheels. Pioneer DJ has ingeniously designed these jog wheels with screens in the center, providing valuable feedback—an exclusive feature for motorized jogs. Additionally, the REV series controllers have decks arranged in "battle mode," similar to turning a turntable 90 degrees so that the tonearm is at the back instead of the right-hand side, which moves the pitch control to the top. This setup, traditionally used to prevent DJs from accidentally hitting the tonearm while scratching on real turntables, is carried over to the controller for familiarity.

3. Pioneer DJ DDJ-FLX4
This budget-friendly controller for Rekordbox and Serato is a scaled-down version of the FLX10 mentioned earlier. It features familiar club-style controls and layout, making it easy for anyone with experience on club gear to feel comfortable using it. This also means it can help aspiring club DJs get accustomed to professional equipment. For beginners or casual DJs, as well as professionals looking for a second controller, this is an excellent choice.
