About this product
The Pioneer DJ DDJ-SB2 is a 2-channel tabletop controller for Serato DJ, featuring 8 pads, a sampler, key lock, and a mic input. It has a 24-bit/44.1kHz audio interface with RCA output and headphone jack. No phono or line inputs are included, making it purely a digital controller. The unit is compact and black, with a frequency response of 20-20,000 Hz. It is sold without a manufacturer warranty.
Our take
The DDJ-SB2 is a reliable Pioneer controller for Serato users. The layout is intuitive, and features like key lock and sampler are handy. The pads are responsive, and the mic input is useful for vocals. However, the lack of phono/line inputs means you can't connect turntables or CDJs—it's strictly for digital DJing. Also, no warranty is included, which is risky. At $175, it's a good mid-range controller if you don't need analog inputs.
