- I figured a way to finally get sound playing without external speakers. I also figured out a way to Charge a tablet or phone and run the Pioneer DDJFLX4 using a power bank or charger pack.

you can just make your headphone go into the cue thingy and then press the cue button on the master level and turn the knob for cue mix all the way to the right
I hate having to plug, unplug all the time in order for rekordbox to recognize my FLX4. Great way to wear down USB C ports on my laptop and controller.
Great discovery! But I eventually chose to buy a power bank with 9V 3A output because I need the sound coming out from Master to speakers.👏
Hi there could you please tell me what powerbank you used please. Thanks so much
@@frederikhendrik6913 get any powerbank with an output capability of atleast 10 wats (almost any modern one will work). the flx4 is just a midi controller with a sound card. it doesnt need much power. i use Anker's 20,000mah batter. works great.
In other news, If you plug something in, you can turn it on...
Thanks! Been trying to figure out if I can use the laptop speakers for easy practice. I assume it'll work on a Macbook the same way? Does the laptop also power the flx 4? Wondering for the phone as a screen, can you use the flx 4 cfx knobs and it'll work? Saw another video where that wasn't the case
Now we don't even need mobile phone or tablet. We can directly plug it into Apple Vision Pro and play it 😁
if you have apple vision pro, you don't even need a dj controller. You can use your empty table. :)
TNX FOR INFO MAN👏👏👏
I connected flx 4 to iphone (application update 4.1.0, I don't see any point in updating further. Android does not work for some reason..) to 5V 3A connector to the usual power bank, everything works immediately with sound. (I listen with bluetooth headphones) + bought a 9v 3A adapter in case charging is required
[I`m writing exclusively about using without speakers]
Can you split the sound from the iPad to your bluetooth headphones in stereo? So that you can pre-listen via audio cue? And still be connected to external speakers via Bluetooth?
Is this a standard powerbank you are using or a special one to power the controller? I was thinking of just taking my phone, flx4 and powerbank outside
just a basic power bank nothing special. Got it from Amazon.
I'm wondering too, I can't see the reply when I click
Half of the steps in this video can be ignored, you can just modify the rekordbox settings to output audio through the mobile device instead of the controller removing the need for half of these steps. And you also get the low latency of a wired connection for mixing compared to Bluetooth latency. And if you still want to charge your device, most modern portable chargers can supply 9V of power through a USB-C output. No hate on the video, just saying there is a simpler method to this that is much less time consuming and requires less steps ❤
i am wondreing how long does it take Pioneer to break this too with a firmware update….
break what exactly? he literally explained the advertised features of the device
FLX4s Headphones out doesn't work like this does it?
Answering myself: No it doesn't, as the sound card of the FLX4 doesn't get used. You'll need an audio splitter cable to be able to cue music to headphones from your iPad, and as a result, you will only have mono-out, and you will not be able to connect to speakers via Bluetooth, because iPads don't have good audio routing.
@@deutschlanddeutschland7111 exactly, power in is for the sound card... i dont get this video at all.
The way i do it: FlX4 to Ipad, via the pc/phone output.
And a usb out from my bluetooth speaker goes to the power of the FLX4.
Then i go RC out to jack in the speaker.
This way i could charge the speaker and play for hours in different locations apart from home.
Using a JBL Boombox 2 in case your wondering, It has enough battery power to charge the ipad 2x (And flx4 soundcard) while in the same time playing at full volume lasting me about 12/18 hours.
Could be really usefull if you want to make a banger mix in the forrest :P
@@TAZMOSPHERE That's pretty damn cool, this way you don't even need a battery pack! And if I understand you right; you're able to use the FLX4s soundcard like that? Will try it as soon as I get my boombox back, tomorrow or so
@@deutschlanddeutschland7111 Jup exactly, the speaker powers the soundcard and i use jack input on the speaker
I cant understand why I cannot connect it with my Bluetooth. Im using a google pixel 7 and latest android version, i dont understand
