DDJ-REV7 Controller for Serato DJ Pro from Pioneer DJ

AlphaTheta Corporation today welcomes the first addition to its new line of Pioneer DJ controllers, the DDJ-REV7. The innovative, two-channel unit enables artists to maximize the full potential of Serato DJ Pro performance software, and boasts a brand-new design including large, vinylized, motorized jog wheels with On Jog Display to create a tactile connection between artists and their music.

The DDJ-REV DJ Controller Series is an ideal solution for open-format and scratch DJs as it emulates a professional DJM-S mixer and PLX turntable setup. For the first time ever on a Pioneer DJ controller, the tempo sliders sit horizontally on the top of the deck sections to mirror PLX turntables in a battle configuration, while the Performance Pads and Lever FX paddles sit in the mixer section to parallel the DJM-S Series mixer design.

Unlike a traditional DJ controller, the DDJ-REV7 enables artists to replicate the analog mixing experience with its motorized 7-inch VINYLIZED JOG wheels. The jog wheels feature customizable settings and two slip sheets included inside each deck to allow artists to experiment with torque and friction. The acrylic top plate is uniquely finished to feel like a real analog record, and includes a spin treatment to easily catch on artists’ fingertips.

In the center of each jog wheel is a 3.5-inch On Jog Display — delivering essential information to artists such as track waveforms, Hot Cues and playback positions. The On Jog Display features omnidirectional viewing angles for clear readability, regardless of an artist’s viewing angle. The DDJ-REV7 also inherits Pioneer DJ’s renowned Magvel Fader Pro for a slick and accurate response while scratching.

Sampling during scratching is now exceptionally streamlined thanks to the DDJ-REV7’s new Instant Scratch buttons. The Instant Scratch buttons, complete with four original samples, are a built-in controller feature, making them accessible to artists without needing a laptop. Artists looking to drop their own samples, even full tracks, can do so by loading samples into the Serato DJ Pro Scratch Bank and tapping the Performance Pads.

The DDJ-REV7 has 22 Beat FX’s including 3 brand-new ones and five Sound Color FX for dramatic and texturized performances. The new controller also features advanced audio components and produces the highest level of sound quality in the entire Pioneer DJ controller range.

To use the DDJ-REV7 with Serato DJ Pro, update to the latest version of the software and use the bundled voucher for the Pitch ‘n Time DJ Expansion Pack to unlock this function.
