The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- It has a built-in light guide system called Beatmatch Guide that shows you where the beat is on the jog wheels and tempo faders, which helps when you're manually syncing tracks together.
- The hardware mixer lets you connect external audio sources like a microphone or smartphone and apply filter effects to them independently, so you're not locked into just using the software.
- You'll need to use either Serato DJ Lite or DJUCED software to actually DJ with this, so it's not a standalone device that works on its own.
As of Aug 31, the Hercules DJControl Inpulse 500 MK2 2-Channel DJ is a good price at $394.99 — versus a $389.50 typical price and a $329.99 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
