About this product
The Pioneer DJ DDJ-REV1 is a scratch-style 2-channel controller designed for Serato DJ Pro. This starter package includes speakers and headphones, making it a complete setup for aspiring scratch DJs. The layout is inspired by professional battle mixers, with large performance pads and a reverse crossfader. It offers USB-powered operation and is compatible with Mac and Windows.
Our take
I got the DDJ-REV1 starter pack, and it's a solid entry point for learning scratch techniques. The layout mimics high-end battle gear, and the reverse crossfader is great for DJs who prefer that orientation. The included speakers and headphones add value, but they're basic. My main gripe is the plastic build — it feels a bit light, and the faders aren't as smooth as pricier models. For under $420, it's a good value if you're serious about scratching and want everything in one box.
