Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
The controller is AWESOME. Best upgrade from the Numark N4 I am trying to sell. (Anyone interested? LOL)
I am new to Serato but it's not too far basics wise from Virtual DJ. If you're serious about perfecting your DJ craft and getting more gigs I highly recommend.

You instantly feel the quality of this product. I currently own a denon mc-6000 and loved how it didn't feel plasticky like other controllers. Currently I'm in love with BOTH controllers, but for different reasons (and different types of parties).
Features
What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could?
Too many to list, but I love the trigger pads, dedicated sampler volume, and easy browsing section. I don't like the fact that you loose a channel when you want to connect a mic, but I guess I'll need to use my Allen & Heath ZedFX10 for that!

If you've ever owned a controller, you'll feel at home with this one. People say that the pitch fader on channel 1 and 3 are too close, but like everything you own, you should be able to use it with your eyes closed before complaining.
Sound
How is the tone?
Excellent, pioneer quality, what's more to say!
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
Nice product. If you're a Serato buff, you'll love it. If you're on traktor, there's some things that you'll miss, but the product more than makes up for the lacking software!

Great product. Great value. Pioneers are usually rip offs but this was a purchase well spent!

This product is sturdily made and light weight, buttons and faders are of great quality and as dependable as all the other Pioneer items out there.
Features
What do you consider to be the best features of this product? What features would you add to this product if you could?
The best feature of this product would be the ability to control 4 decks and the ability to control other software other than serato.
Ease of Use
How easy is this product to use? How easy is the product to use with other products? Did it take long for you to learn to use this product? Was the manual helpful? How playable do you consider this product to be?
Easy to use product, easy to use on other software such as Virual Dj,and Traktor if you upload the latest firmware properly and the product manual has to be downloaded.Product pays for itself after a gig or two with out any problem considering it allows you to mix videos.
Sound
How is the tone?
The tone is alright, and the filters on this unit have no noise leaks whatsoever. Finally with Pioneer, a booth channel to monitor your sound and not get distracted from echoes or double beats.
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
If you're looking to get into a controller, by all means I recommend the ddj-sx over any one out there and Serato dj software is not bad either and the price is definetly down most people's alley.
Value
Was this item an overall good value?
The item was definetly an overall good value, considering you control four decks through Serato.

This is a very solid unit. Metal construction and all the pads, buttons, knobs have great feedback and just the feel of everything lets you know that this is a flagship piece of gear!
Features

Best feature would be the pads. Especially when used with the sampler. 4 banks of 6 slots, the creativity of your DJ set has been stepped up a few notches with this controller!

This piece of gear is plug-n-play literally. Power out of SX, USB out to computer, RCA/XLR out to speaker(s), you're ready to go.
Sound
How is the tone?
Sound is great, it's a Pioneer. People have been complaining about mic quality issues, but I have absolutely no issues with mine. I even hooked up an electric acoustic guitar during a wedding and it sounded awesome.
Overall
Your general opinion of this product.
This is definitely a great product for the active mobile DJ and for the bedroom DJ. There's so many features but yet, I seem to use them all! I have not yet brought a mixing board to any of my gigs, I can do it all from my SX and it handles it pretty well. I love that it's light (14lbs) ultra portable compared to my NS7FX in an Odyssey Flight Case was about (85lbs). I definitely would (and have) recommended this product to other people, new, veteran, and all-star DJs alike.

Definitely great value for a Pioneer product. Price tag is just right for all the features it offers.

This is really sturdy and solid. Although the bottom is made out of hard plastic, It wont affect the overall built of this unit. From knobs to the buttons everything is solid!
Features

Dual deck feature is beast. Pads on the bottom of the decks make mixing on the fly a-lot of fun. Solid smooth jogs and mixing remixing is so easy. Only other feature I would add is full kill EQ but this is no deal breaker.

Don't be fooled by all the bells and whistles! You can start mixing right out of the box! Learning curve and getting used to the unit comes fast with basic mixing/djing skills. Even beginners wouldn't have such a hard time getting started. I have not even opened the manual up since I've had this for 3 weeks. This unit has a great community for help behind it. You can find them on Serato or Pioneer forums!
Sound

Sound is amazing. Would not change a thing. Mic output could be better but a little adjusting makes it sound well.

If you are a club/gig DJ, you will LOVE this controller. If you do it for fun, you will LOVE this controller. Remixing/mixing on the fly has no limits. Its super fun and very easy to use.
