Pioneer DDJ FLX10 FULL WALK THRU and Review 

That’s a lot of stuff. My brain is gonna explode 🤯

I own the FLX10...I've had it for about 3wks. now. I moved from a Numark NVII and I can definitely say I love everything the board is capable of and more. This is my first Pioneer board. Thank you for the great walkthrough.

As usual... DJ Cleveland Terry on the cutting edge. I always value your reviews. Thanks for another top-notch walk thru .!!

Used it yesterday. Its a worthy upgrade to the DDJ 1000. Great recommendation. The jogs are tight!

Great review! I'm patiently waiting for mine and i think I've watched this video a couple times to get familiar with everything. Thank you

Thank you for this fantastic review, I bought this controller today, upgrading from my loved DDJ-800 that I am selling

I must say that I am overwhelmed, but in a good way with all these tracks and all these possibilities it's a blessing

Finally an answer to the Rane Four. I like it its very intuitive way to use the fx on the stems. I'm sure pioneer will update their stems to work better in the future. Great video bud.

I have been waiting for this one!!

Nice and honest review, loved it!

Really well made and informative video. Thank you!!

Thanks for the review! This seems like a great board from Pioneer judging from what you shared!

got mine yesterday, super happy!

Thanks Cleveland. I just got mine today!!! Great Break Down on this!! I bought the XZ over the summer....Too BIG!!! Used it 3 times> I gotta get rid of it. Also you put a stamp on the JetPack. I gotta get that too!! Much Love 100!!!

All of the colorful LEDs on the FLX10 make it look great in your studio!

Awesome video man. Thank you!

I have been looking at the flex for a couple months now and hoping it goes on sale for the holiday weekend but I'm thinking that's not going to happen. Your video was very informative Thank you very much!!

i had to subscribe after watching some of your reviews video's. Love love and apreciate you

Aye champ, GREAT REVIEW. Detailed. I appreciate the feedback.

Great Review!!!! Thank you CT!!!!!!!

Great review CT 👊🏼

I'm really looking forward to this. I was getting really discouraged looking for a DDJ 1000 and the only ones I could find were upwards of about $2500. This is a reality.

Can already see the advantages of mix point link. Dope! Great Review as usual!

Great job and appreciate your time. Really like this ... for mobile, this should be the go to.

Great info as always! Definitely things l like about this new Pioneer, but I'm actually glad I went with the Rane Four as of now, but would love to see you do a comparison of the two!

This is such a great walk through. I have used it multiple times to figure out how access several of the functions outlined here. If anyone reading this is considering a flx10, do it! It is such a dope controller. I had a 1000 srt that I sold back in September, and this is a great upgrade/replacement. That’s just my opinion.

Nice review! Props to the albums on the wall! Stro Elliott, Kaytra, Stevie…👍🏾

Just sold my ddj 1000 last week, this dropping is perfect timing 😂

DDJ-1000 replacement. Looks like they developed it for Rekordbox first and then gave it to Serato to map. Regardless, definitely more robust than the 1000. Workflow implementation is pretty cool for stems being a relatively new thing.

the slip roll on the vocals is next level ❤

Excellent!!! thanks. Seems like a Wonderfull boar. One of the things that I found was that they never added a stop time knob.

i bought the flx 10 and love it amazing board highly recommend

Thanks for help me keep a positive outlook and yes, good things to come to those who wait I feel truly blessed with what is at my disposal?

My buddy DJ Tylerr picked it up and absolutely loves it!!!

Cliffhanger! Rane Four & FLX 10 might need a Versus 😂

I was a HUGE fan of Pioneer....until the Rane 4 came out. The paddle FX are much better, as well as the implementation of the one button stem split feature. Also, the Oled screens above the pads are a game changer. I can't see myself using another controller without it

It's gorgeous. They need to make a white one like my FLX-6. 💪🏽

Every DJ will go for this one. Honestly the way everyone was looking for a SRT-1000 was scary. But I will say this and the Rane 4 are gonna be the it. I love both however, I like my controller to get air flowing throughout I will get both tho trust you never steer us wrong Cleveland.

I was not aware that Pioneer came out with this controller till I saw the Mojaxx review. I enjoyed yours as well. It's great gear. I wonder if Pioneer will come out with a small version like the DDJ 800.

Instrumental music that's I liked to play DDJ - 1000srt , DDJ- FLX10 , DDJ - FLX6 , DDJ - REV7 and also DJ - PLX500 and DJ - PLX1000 professional turntables .

Amazing info bro. I'm a part time dj. This thing is crazy.. I was up grading to a flx6. But I think this one is better.

Thanks for another amazing review Cleveland. I'm still debating whether or not to buy the FLX10. I currently own the REV7 and the Rane 4, and I'm loyal to Serato. Decisions, decisions.

This is great! Just got my Flx 10! Is there a table of contents or place you can go to practice some of the ideas you have shown in this video.

Speaking as a VDJ user who uses the 1000 & 800, all the new features - except the split ( which is now added in their early access) were already there. FX on a specific stem is something i've been doing over 2 yrs now. If i didn't own a 1000 i would hv considered this fasho, but as of now.... i'm good. I also do believe that vdj would find a way to make use to that DMX xlr output.

Very thorough reviews. Looks exactly like the 1000SRT.

A lot to take into consideration on Serato or Rekordbox, I guess I would make a decision soon as I was waiting for this to come out. Hhhhmmmm I’m going to have to give myself some time whether FLX-10 or Rane Four. Thank you always CT!

Cleveland, Respect my brotha, you do a great job. Very informative and insightful. Keep up the great content. I would like your opinion on something… Would you as a DJ prefer the SJ11 and (2) CDJ 3000’s or the DDJ FLX10 or REV 7? This is for a second mobile dj set up, I have the DJM-A9 and (2) CDJ-3000. Maybe a controller would be best to have options, would the DDJ FLX10 be the best buy since it uses both dj softwares or role with a SJ11 and CDJ’s?

Thanks again great reviews. How about the soundcard? Was it upgraded and to what level?

😮 Pioneer is officially a lone survivor pioneer with this FLEX 10 😊 i bet this controller will set the standard for Legendary DJs. 😱🤑 Prion Jo ni good job sir 🤯 thank you 🙏🏼🥵😁🥰

Looks awesome! This will sound crazy and this is probably just me, but the changes to the beat jump buttons is a deal breaker. I use 32/16 beat jumps a lot in my work flow, and not sure if it’s midi mappable, but these changes wouldn’t fly for me. This review was excellent, thanks CT!

I just received my Rane Four yesterday! Any comparison with FLX 10 and the Rane 4?

Thanks for the review! I appreciate it. I literally just bought a DDJ 1000 after having and using the 400 for a year. You mentioned the FLX10 is about an inch (or so) deeper. I am guessing that was to accommodate for the DMX port as well as the stems buttons. Probably a dumb question, but are the jog wheels the same size as the 1000? I guess looking at it from the top, because of that extra depth, the wheels look slightly smaller. I imagine someone thought the same thing. I'm looking forward to the future of the FLX controllers.

Once again Terry you knocked it out of the park. You and MOJO! Gives me a lot to think about. I've had my 1000 for a few years now and absolutely love it(replaced my ssz) So I already have rekord box program on my computer would I also have to add serato with a whole new library?

Hi , thanks for the great review. I own both the OG 1000 and the SRT , does the FLX 10 sound better? Cheers :)

Just got mine on Friday and I used on a gig that night. Having stem control totally changes the way I mix. Question, does it fit in hard cases made for the 1000?

your video was very informative appreciate it I made a decision to buy this mixer Dj Just Kash

thank you for this video, very nice. By the way which DJ can explain more about Link Point Mix ? It can be also use in Serato? I appreciate.

Hi, I'm Claudio from Italy, congratulations for your videos which are always very clear and inspiring, I wanted to ask you if you tried scratching on the pioneer flx10 and if you were happy with the jogwheels? because I bought it recently and the jogwheels have a sensitivity problem for scratching, in practice I am forced to apply more pressure than is needed to prevent the jogwheels from continuing to move forward and therefore making me lose the right point of the sample which I use for scratching. If I keep the pressure on the jogwheel too light, it doesn't stop when I would like to stop it or simply bring the sample back to the right point. I'll start by saying that I have always used pioneer without any problems and the last controller I used was the flx6 with which I was able to scratch perfectly without any problem... do you know if there are any tips or utilities that allow you to set the pressure on the jogwheels correctly? Thanks for your attention, Claudio.

Great review! You could put a thousand effects on a board and we might only use 3 out of all that. Besides the crowd doesn’t care about effects they only care about the next song. We mix so fast nowadays that we don’t have time to use or need all those features. Less is so much more! Finally, if you are a experienced dj you’ll realize you don’t need all that crap. 😎

Looks great. Thanks for video. So question is FLX10 or Rane four?

Yess, Recordbox finally added something similar to Trackor fade-in cue/fade-out cue. Also they are finally getting into sterms. Just because this controller work with both Serato and Rekordbox, I will rather get this than the Rev7. Plus DDJ-1000 audio board is defective.

Definitely on the fence on if I want this or the rane 4

Still would go with the Race 4 over this...and I wanted a 1000-SRT forever. It's the effects for me....not a fan of the wheel, button select system. I want to be able to have control over more than one channel/one effect with the FX select. (Ie: Reverb with Echo). Though I still love the mechanical jogs - minor gripe is why they changed the outside of the jogs to look like the cheaper FLX-6 instead of actual CDJ's?

😂 exactly vs the other board lol! Is the mic preamp better than the 1000srt? And sound quality? Improvement? If not im going rane!

Man CT you are great at getting my money to these companies......

Looks legit, decent 1000 hardware upgrade (1000 owner), but not compelling considering the software update. Rb library of course remains top but Serato STEMS use (currently s5 x rane 12s) makes it worth it. The game is changing tho! 2024 is going to be awesome

Did you mention a sample button for air horns and DJ Tags for Serato?

DJ CT , HELLO THERE !! HEY, I JUST CAME ACROSS YOUR VIDEO ON THE REVIEW ON THE PIONEER DDJ FLX10 I LOVE YOUR REVIEW. BUT I HAVE A QUESTION ? I ALSO CHECK OUT THE PIONEER REV 5 REVIEW TOO I WANT TO UPGREAT MY CONTROLLER. I'LL KNOW BOTH CONTROLLERS ARE DIFFERENT!! ON YOUR OWN WORDS WISH CONTROLLER YOU'LL RECOMMEND ME FOR A MOBILE DJ ? THANKS CT 🎧

My SX2 is becoming glitchy and need to replace it. Have been waiting for a 1000SRT to become available. May go this direction instead. Great review. 💪😎

Can you help on a tough decision on a Serato software Controller. Pioneer Flex 10 or Rane 4. I want to get into scratching in my DJ sets, I'm a beginner. Please help a fellow DJ out. What one do you recommend in your honest opinion. Thanks Terry C.

The ddj 1000 RB was an incredible contoller the SRT version was a money grab cheap version. Flx10 looks like they put the RB1000 quality of a build w serato compatibility. Gonna purchase CT is the best at reviews

My first experience was M-Audio then once I got my DDJ SX I never looked back.

It's dope. I'm gonna go with the Rev 5. It's battle style. I don't need all that info on the jog wheels because I like to look up while I DJ lol

Does the mic set up on this controller carry the reverb or echo effect like the SRT ?

Virtual DJ full support is coming soon. It will be really interesting to hear their stems separation on the Flex10.

So, just to be clear, we are able to hook up decks to the other 2 outputs, correct?

Great info as always! I think Pioneer should ship this with button labels that correspond with Serato. And DAMN that booth level is too close to the master!! I'll have to put tape over the master once set as I use my monitor up/down all night....or gonna be some blown amps 😂

So I use a MacBook Air with Ventura 13.3 but I keep getting a error reading MIDI message. Do you have any idea what could be the problem? Do I have to have stems on my Serato already maybe?

Watched this again after the release of the Flx5. Can you do a Flx5 v Flx10 review?

hi question, im djing on a ddj 400 for a year now and like it would u rather upgrade to an ddj800 or has the flx10 better value? DDJ 800 costs around 929 Euros and the FLX 1619 Euros

Hey! If i have a ddj 800, should it worth buying a flx 10 in your opinion?

Hello, is there a way to speed up and slow down the play/stop tempo? What i mean is: On a CDJ it is the "Vinyl speed adjust" knob

Great review, but how does it stack up against the Denon Prime Go?? Just kidding haha!

The first thing that comes to my mind when I saw Mix Point is Serato Flip. I know this is completely missed since Flip only works inside same track and deals with different idea. They could at least map Serato Flip to these buttons in Serato :P

I just setup mine, and the Beat FX display is off. There is no way for me to turn it on. Did yours turn on by default?

Would this be good to mix with in a decent size bar setting?

So which way do I go, pioneer or Rane??

Which do you like better? The flx10 or rane four?

This is a very cool controller with lots of improvements and am very tempted! Although the Noise color effect is still COMPLETELY UNUSABLE just like the DDJ 1000 because the level is way too high (I have the DJM 450 and that has a parameter level for the color effects so you can tone that down and also adjust filter resonance etc)

I want to know. This or the Opus? I'm upgrading from my 800 controller

i miss the feature to switch deck 4 to sampler like on FLX 6.. because i like to put effects on my samplers sometimes

Have you tried it on VirtualDJ yet? If so, how was it?

Hey Buddy, what are the dimensions of this Flex 10, length, height and depth? 🙏😊

Hey Cleveland. Just bought the FLX 10 and for some reason Serato isn't opening up with it. It says "Error Loading Midi Xml". Tried everything like Uninstalling Serato, reinstalling it, updating driver and firmware, using Serato 3.0.1, 3.0.4 and used two Macs and a HP laptop. Have you heard about any of those problems?

love peoples opnion on this vs the rev 7 i mean there hard to even compare but i have the rev 7 boxed up and this came out later wondering if i should sell and get this i was waiting on the 1000s to come out around covid and it never happened i play alot of edm and i also do open format so i felt the flx10 is more for all genres whereas the rev 7 is soo good but geared towards open format n scratch djs ive done like a edm set on the rev 7 for eg it was great but i didn't get to use the pioneer beat fx as i'm use to when dong this and was limited with effects provided it was stil very smooth to use but makes me wonder what i would have purchased if both units came out the same time

It would be nice to have the option for the user, to swap out the black pad for the white ones.

I already bought the rane 4 dang!

Odd choice of not having the pitch fader centre lock, my only concern with it

Pumped me up which to get the opus or flx 10

thanks for this.. will replace my DDJ-1000
