Most under-rated Controller on the Market. Great size, multiple outputs and the perfect Mobile Rig.
It is a very handy controller. Thanks for the feedback!
True!
I am a wedding DJ and this controller is the go to for 90% of my gigs. Fantastic.
Yea its like a Swiss army knife. I use the 707m for most of my gigs the Denon Prime Go takes care of everything else. Thanks for the feedback!
Thank you, I just ordered one today be fore I saw this. One of my DENO MCX8000 is starting to freeze up using Serato but not on Virtual DJ, and yeah I've tried everything to fix it we me being a sound engineer, cables, updates etc. I have two others and their fine BUT all are heavy, look good but heavy. This 707M has had my eye for a while now and with one of my controllers acting up in my DJ company gave me the excuse to go with a way more portable controller that actually does more. Thanks for a good honest review LOL now I feel great my cash on this 707M coming next week.
How did you end up liking it?
@@irgimpi I love it! I brought a second for my DJ company last week. As a wedding DJ it has everything we need inputs, outputs, mic's, effects and clean sounding mixer. I've been throwing 4 & 5 gigs a week on this thing all summer and it's doing great.
@@masterpdj2623 is the output tight and loud? Good Dac
@@MobilediscowirralCoUk Yes it is matter of fact I just brought a second one
Bro, the word you said about this DJ controller being an ultimate "Swiss Army Knife", that made an impact on me to buy this great controller. Thank you for this specific video you made and God bless you. Peace! :-)
I am glad it has worked out for you! Thaks for the feedback!
Love the 707m, been using it for about a year. Also wish it had more gain on the the front 1/4, 1/8 inputs but what a great no. Of inputs. It was definitely designed for mobiles. I also have the Rane One and Pioneer Ddjsx2
Yea I have to pump the gain on front for sure. The other controllers you own are great too. I’m looking to get the Denon DJ Prime one stand alone deck as well next.
I have it and its opened up my ability to say “yes” to a lot of requests due to the mobility. I was watching your comparison video vs the Denon and you mentioned the sound card difference. I unfortunately can agree that the sound card is lacking some oomph, especially over bigger soundsystems like the club, I’ve remedied it in that type of situation by bringing a small but quality analog mixer to go through. It kinda defeats some of the mobility but can’t win them all, still such a solid unit for basically any situation and has some work arounds to it’s drawbacks. Your older reviews helped me press go on getting one a couple years ago! 🙏
Man I’m glad it helped, thanks for checking out the channel. Thanks for the feedback too.
Good piece bruh you have helped me in my thoughts on buying this board. When I purchase it I hope I can get a few pointers from you on how to run it
Thanks for watching it man. Yeah anything I can help you with on the 707 for sure. If you buy the board on amazon def use my link it will help me do better video. either way thanks for checking this channel out.
How did you end up liking it?
Nicely explained mate 👍🏽😎
Thanks for watching and the comment!
Thanks for the review. Much appreciated.
Thanks for watching
I use the controller and I love it
GOOD INFO I OWN THIS CONTROLLER
Dope!
Thank you for watching.
Great review thank you! Have you tried to hook up turntables and play actual vinyl? Wondering if the phono inputs are of good quality.
I haven't set them up to vinyls, I did see some on display in a store and heard them playing records but I couldn't compare the vinyl sounds to another set up for a true comparison.
I have purchase I can tell bro this mixer are great amazing 100 percentage
Hi checking to see if you're still using the 707 and how is it standing up. Also any additional cons?
Whenever I use Serato and I have to bring my own gear I use the 707m still. I have been using my Prime Go alot more because I have have been doing short 2 hour gigs a lot lately. The biggest con to the 707m is its age really, not many updates from Roland on it but the flip side is it still works like it always has for me. Hope that helps
@@PhearNoneGearGadgets Thanks for responding, i'm loving this controller in 2024 but i'm not seeing any videos about the jog wheels in terms of scratching or pull backs and the feel or sound. Can you please consider doing one. I need to decide before June 2024 is finished
@@djmickeyTV Hey so the sound is good on the 707m, I have heard louder sound cards in other decks however this controller sound is still good for a pro setting. AS far as the jog wheels they are just small free spinning jog wheels. no real pullback feel like cdjs. They move fast and loose enough to do some casual scratching on static jog wheels but they are not going to give you feedback like a Hercules T7 or any resistance like jog wheels. Hope that helps
@@PhearNoneGearGadgets Thanks yes it does....still want to see it in use as i'm more a hands on guy. Keep up the awesome work and thanks for replying
thanks for doing this review, definitely trying to get into DJ'ing, would you recommend this as a '1st' controller?
I would recommend a pioneer DDJ 7 with serato
Good day. Please I'm using this baby with serato software but I'm not getting out enough good sound. Please can anyone help? Thanks
We got both of them 707m and the prime go, with the mackie Thump Go, and the soundboks,
Great Video!
Would love to check out your mixes and come spin down in NYC 🙏
Just picked up the 707m 👑
Come on down!
Great video!
Hey thanks for checking it out!
I'm debating between the 707m and the 808 so do you know how much different between the two is.
The 707M is waaaaay more compact than the 808 . The 707 is made for controlling the music in different rooms or "Zones". The 707M is also made more for running mics and or instruments through. Other than the 808 being bigger you can actually produce and sequence tracks or beats on it the drum patterns on the 707M are more baked in and you can't really alter them as much. hope this helps
I've watched alot of reviews on this controller, and this is one best review videos I've seen!! :) I'm interested in this controller, because 4 deck stems controller for virtual dj. That's easy to travel with. Have your tried using virtual dj stems with this controller? Thanks again for the great video! :)
Yup I have used the 707 with VDJ. It works well.
@@PhearNoneGearGadgets Thank you for letting me know! :) I like your videos because instead talking about features. You talk experience of using the equipment at events. For example how you backup equipment, and talking annoying sound speaker sound from 707, when it setup wrong. No one else metioned this in any other video! Haha I watched nearly all of them! :D I haven't found one video for 707 with stems. Raven four is just to big to carry on flight or coach. That why 707 interest me more. Thank you for your awesome videos! :)
Thanks man!
I've been looking for a near perfect controller and you seem to have presented it to me. The trouble is, they're near impossible to get hold of.
I found this with my affiliate program amzn.to/3KtDfR7
The green dot characters, pass not an issue for me, Kraftwerk yeah
👍🏿
Does this have slip mode? Nice review
Thanks for checking it out. The 707M lacks dedicated buttons for slip mode however I believe it can be mapped. .
@@PhearNoneGearGadgets thx for responding...I have a 707m which I use for BBQ,s and house party..
thank you
Please compare to the older denon MCdn6000, there are similarities especially the weird placement of pitch fader. Its also a 4ch true mixer, 2 mic, with fx, samples.
Layout, weight and size is so similar. Ive had my eye on the 707 for a while now. Thanks for the vid
I will def try to get my hands on the Denon to compare.
That old Denon MCdn6000 was a good mixer until mines started having a few issues. I now have 3 huge and HEAVY Denon MCX8000 (Sweet looking but heavy)for my company and one is acting up. Been eye balling this 707m for a bit now so I ordered one today and I think I'm gong to like it's portablity and functionality.
The 707m has been my main controller for gigs since my 1000 srt is stationed at the bar i resident at, have used the 707m in all situations and it’s been a horse for the last year, the mc6000 is actually heavier than the 707m I have one of those sitting in my house as it’s been retired. But can’t say enough about the 707 the only gripe I have is the mic inputs, u need to always tune the settings or mics will run hot and distort cause of the quality inputs they used.
Nice review
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 thanks for watching
Do you feel it has decent audio sound dac chip inside? For good output?
I feel the sound card is professional in the board. However I do feel that u need to start at 12 o’clock because the sound is low between 0 to about 4 on the board. I assume that’s because it can be plugged into a loud house system. I have used it in some pretty big venues. That’s for the feedback.
I just got mines today
Dope! Let me know how it works out.
I’m having trouble keeping drum machine in sync when going from deck to deck. Any tips?
@@Mdnesseptx I follows the deck that is de master... Maybe you can look into that.
So you think this is better than the NS6ii and why please let me know
Well better subjective. It depends what you need the deck for as a DJ. The Roland 707m is unique because it can control 3 different zones. meaning you can have speakers set up in another room and control them separate from the main room. You can save eq settings that you have made for different venues that you might frequently perform in or residencies. The 707 also has a roland drum machine and an oscillator baked in for live remixes and sound efx, The Numark has bigger better platters and the digital screen in the middle of the platter. they are better for scratching and juggling. The Numark has longer pitch throw too. Not sure which sound card is stronger
@@PhearNoneGearGadgets Thank you
Can I use the 707m only with the Laptop and without the Dc input?
No.
how do i get sound out of my 707m
Well the back of the device has several options for sound output. ie RCA, and XLR outputs. The device can work as a drum machine/ mixer without any computer hooked up to it. Does that answer your question?
🤦🏾♂️ Not only serato sir..it works just fine with Virtual DJ...but just like other DJs reviews people always hating on VDJ....not all DJs fall for the serato hype crap 😉
Thanks for letting us know about Virtual DJ.
Dope!
Thanks for watching!
