Pioneer DJ has upgraded one of its popular Serato DJ controllers to create the 2-channel DDJ-SB3, designed for dedicated use with Serato DJ Lite (previously known as Serato DJ Intro).
The new controller offers an intuitive interface for beginner DJs to craft professional performances and improve their skills.
It improves on the DDJ-SB2, used by a wide range of DJs. The interface of the DDJ-SB3 is designed to be more intuitive to use than its predecessor’s, inheriting traits from the layouts of the top models in the DDJ-S series, including the introduction of the dedicated play and cue buttons and the independent Auto Loop button.
In collaboration with DJ Jazzy Jeff, Pioneer created Pad Scratch. The brand-new feature on the DDJ-SB3 enables DJs to reproduce scratches based on the legendaryhip hop DJ’s own recordings by simply pressing the Performance Pads. Plus, smooth mixing is made easier with another new feature, FX Fade.
The DDJ-SB3 will be available from 1st March 2018 at an SRP of £229 including VAT.
