Pioneer DDJ-400 DJ Controller DDJ400

Pioneer DJ推出了新款的入門控制器DDJ-FLX4。

DDJ-FLX4可以說是要取代DDJ-400。DDJ-FLX4機乎是完全繼承DDJ-400，跟DDJ-400的配置機乎是相同，只有一點點小小的不同。

以往，Pioneer會把產品分成兩個線，一個是對應SERATO如DDJ-SB3, 一個則是對應REKORDBOX如DDJ-400， 不過似乎Pioneer不打算再這麼做了。

DDJ-FLX4可以同時支援對應Serato DJ lite和Rekordbox DJ，這對於生產線來說應該是比較方便，不需要再生產兩種器材。

除此外， DDJ-FLX4 在明年也可以對應自家開發的Rekordbox DJ 行動裝置版。並且可以以藍芽方式連接，連接的方式多樣確實可以同時滿足不同需求的朋友。

你若想說有什麼驚喜，那真的是要失望，長的跟DDJ-400一樣怎麼會有驚喜!

這樣還要再介紹下去嗎，看DDJ-400介紹應該就可以了。不過多少還是要寫一下。

主要新功能

DDJ-FLX4 添加了“Smart Fader”功能，試圖調整混音中曲目的 BPM、音量、低音或其他項目”，其想法是初學者 DJ 可以只透過Crossfader就可以讓軟體幫你做好一切調整。

真是太貼心了，那還需要DJ幹嘛。

另一個適合初學者的功能是“Smart CFX”，它“只需轉動一個旋鈕即可將復雜的效果組合應用於音樂”。Pioneer就是喜歡用效果吸引初學者，但不是看到黑影就開槍。效果實用和常用的還是那些，若是用不到或不會用，給你100個也沒用。

DDJ-FLX4 DJ 現在可以通過 USB 電纜將來自任何連接麥克風的聲音傳送到計算機，從而更輕鬆地將您的聲音包含在錄音或直播中。

Android 設備背面有一個“單聲道/立體聲”開關——同樣，這一切都與即將推出的 Rekordbox 移動應用程序相關聯，該設備顯然能夠通過藍牙進行通信。

KEY FEATURES

rekordbox, Serato and djay compatibility

You can use the DJ software rekordbox, Serato DJ Lite and djay for free by connecting your PC/Mac to the DDJ-FLX4 to complete your DJ setup. And if you want to upgrade to Serato DJ Pro, you can buy a license or subscription for the premium version of the software.

Multi-device support

Whether you want to connect to a PC, Mac, iPhone, iPad, or an Android phone or tablet, the DDJ-FLX4 is versatile in its design. Even better, if you use the controller with rekordbox for iOS/Android or djay for iOS/Android, you'll be able to connect to your device via Bluetooth® or USB cable. So, there’s nothing to hold you back from giving DJing a try.

*rekordbox for Android (ver. 4.0) was also due for release in spring 2023. However, this has been postponed until further notice to ensure the Android app runs as smoothly as the iOS version. As soon as a new release date has been scheduled, an announcement will be made on the homepage of the Pioneer DJ website.
