Hey Phil, I have a very specific question regarding mixing your own music, and I am wondering if I could get in touch with you other than though these comments. Thank you!
It should also be noted that this controller can be hooked up to your PC via USB and can run desktop versions of VirtualDJ, DJUCED, Sorato and DJay Pro as well.
Great video.. neat little "on the go" solution for mobile DJs who don't want to carry bulk. I was surprised that your phone actually went into sleep mode when the DJay Pro app was still running though. The app should have prevented this from happening and I can see this being an issue for DJs.
Now a Days is so much better I use my iPad to mix and tidal with a sb3 but that's still to big so I'm thinking about getting this one seams pretty for the size
Awesome. I'm already a phenomenal DJ but was thinking about getting one of these controllers for taking away on road trips... really enjoyed watching this, you explained things really well, dude! 🙂 All you DJs out there, have fun, rave safe and stay humble ❤️
I was looking into starting to dj.. just to have fun for myself and in my house. So many stuff out there.. Then i saw this one! Nice price and i also like to connect it to my phone no laptop. Gonna buy this one! 🎉🎉
Also just something to be mindful of. There are 2 types of controllers that look exactly the same. You have the Dj Hercules Mixer which is this one and there is also the Dj Hercules Starlight. The starlight does not have the Bluetooth function. An easy way to tell the difference is if it days Djay on the player on the top right it is for Bluetooth as apposed to the other which will say Serato on the top right.
Great lesson with the spectrum analyzer 👍🏽 I personally mix by ear, but for beginners, this is a great way to get them started, but I will be practicing a bit more with the analyzer.
Me too ,,I mix decks by ear but you .might agree that decks take to much space an in mornings it's long getting vinyl out when just want to throw 2 tracks together 😮this is easy...
I find these DJ controllers fascinating. I just got a Hercules Starlight to hook up to my desktop PC. I love how the functionality of a board with 2 turntables is simulated to do everything with mp3's.
This is awesome! Beginner enthusiast here just trying to learn the basics to play at family birthday parties and such. Quick question: how much of a delay is there from when you click the buttons on the controller to when the app in the phone reacts?
Hi! Thank you very much.. This will help me a lot. I used to mix on technics and a mixer . Last time I did was 22 years ago. I recently bought this little controller and now thanks to you I now how to use it.
can you make a tutorial on how you would mix new wave songs from the 80s or any tips or advice you can give?....its quite tricky since the songs are of wide variety, some more rock, some more electro, and some dance pop type vibes....I've been practicing quite a lot coz i got booked to do an 80s themed party....and I have been recording my sets but the flow just isn't right and not quite there yet still got some cleaning up and details to do...maybe not being familiar with the 80s and its music contributed to that as well. Thanks
A Bah là, je viens de m'acheter cette petite merveille.... Le truc qui fait trop râger les djays avec leur matos de pro qui ont du mal à te suivre avec ton 'ti machin. Cette leçon était excellent... Châpeau monsieur... Même mes gosses s'éclatent avec cette platine.
This is super cool! Excellent job with this tutorial! My only question is about Bluetooth technology and latency issues. From watching this video, it looks like it's not a problem, but you did not use headphones in this video. Is there any latency going from the phone to the device and the headphones? Thanks for the great info!
Mine arrived today, pretty amazing for the price imo. But mixing and scratching over Bluetooth speakers is bad, too much lag. Have to connect with wires to my phone with the splitter?
Thanks, So I’m having problems trying to record a DJ Set send it to family or friends. I can record no problem, but I can’t send it. Is there another way to record my DJ Set ??
Really not sure to buy this one or the Hercules DJ Control Starlight. What do you recommend? I guess the DJ Control mix you can only use with iOS and not Laptops, right? With the Starglight, you could do both (just without BT)...
Good video Phil, now I purchased this mixer and have the full dj app on android samsung note20 5g . My huge issue is why am I getting latency when I use the headphones splitter it comes with ? It's really bad and i would say it probably 1/2 to a full second of latency. Can you explain. Thanks
You did explain it very good man. Thanks, BUT with the comming Straus Claus terror, will there be a free september and winter ? were we can party ? Or is this system very practicle to have mobile parties, whenever the police things they arrive the drinks car and dj bootset moves to an other place, and with a passenger bus standby ?
Great demonstration of this little controller, however, you could go to your iPhone's settings to disable the screen saver !!! because it pisses everyone off !!! 😤😤😤!!!
Hi Phil, Recently subbed after your most excellent beginners lessons and keen to start a new hobby. Would you recommend the Hercules DJAY still in 2022? Or is there a better beginners controller or Hercules model now? Happy just to start out with a Bluetooth to Android unit with my headphones
My Hercules acts completely different when I use it through Bluetooth as opposed to when I plug it directly into my phone. It won't play or stop on the Hercules, I have to use my phone. But the other mixing functions work on the Hercules itself. When I back-cue on the vinyl toggle- it doesn't spin it backwards- it just slows it down. But when I have it plugged-in, it works just like vinyl, and the play stop works, so weird.
I am looking for a little controller to throw in a bag and take on holiday for playing some music by the pool or on the balcony, I think this swill be ideal?
Hi Phil, thank you for the video. I was thinking of buying this controller but I wanted to use it also with my Serato library while traveling, besides using it with my phone. Do you if it's compatible with Serato as well?
Hi, I could not really find it but how do you monitor using this controller and app? Ideally I'd connect wired headphones to my iphone and play the master via bluetooth. So far I've not found how to do this.
My 14 year old wants a controller to connect to his android tablet and use his soundcloud playlists along side with his Bluetooth jbl speaker is this all even possible? Thx for the video 👍
you said its always good to mix in key and you are able to manipulate songs BPM to beatmatch between songs but is it possible to beat match to different keys, is there a hard an fast rule?

Hey Phil, I have a very specific question regarding mixing your own music, and I am wondering if I could get in touch with you other than though these comments. Thank you!
Is it compatible with iPad first
How are you
Are much is the price for it 😮😮😮
Just picked this up for the kid to play with on Christmas break. A little youtube and some help from dad this thing will be awesome.
Was it? Layin' in corner now huuh?
This is my very first video lesson that actually really taught me something new. Thank you!
It should also be noted that this controller can be hooked up to your PC via USB and can run desktop versions of VirtualDJ, DJUCED, Sorato and DJay Pro as well.
I figured the laptop would be better! 😀
Can it be connected to the iPad via USB instead of bluetooth?
Yes@@bradford2211

It was because he had low power mode on. It will override any app if it’s turned on
Hay que desactivar el protector de pantalla
I just ordered one of these and I can't wait to get started and return to this video; thank you!

I find these DJ controllers fascinating. I just got a Hercules Starlight to hook up to my desktop PC. I love how the functionality of a board with 2 turntables is simulated to do everything with mp3's.

Hello DJ Phil Harris, can you put a link for the app and the link to purchase the mixer online?
Thanx !
Can you use spotify as music library?Also can this mixer connect to a bluetooth speaker?
I like your style of music Phil I'm your fan from India ❣️❣️❣️
It also has a splitter cable for the headphones and speaker...so not necessarily have to connect via Bluetooth.
This is super cool! Excellent job with this tutorial! My only question is about Bluetooth technology and latency issues. From watching this video, it looks like it's not a problem, but you did not use headphones in this video. Is there any latency going from the phone to the device and the headphones?

Is it possible to connect my phone to a bluetooth speaker, then use the controller, the sound will be going through the bluetooth speaker?
Good video Phil, now I purchased this mixer and have the full dj app on android samsung note20 5g . My huge issue is why am I getting latency when I use the headphones splitter it comes with ? It's really bad and i would say it probably 1/2 to a full second of latency. Can you explain. Thanks

Does that work with most Bluetooth phones ?
Hi Phil, Recently subbed after your most excellent beginners lessons and keen to start a new hobby. Would you recommend the Hercules DJAY still in 2022? Or is there a better beginners controller or Hercules model now? Happy just to start out with a Bluetooth to Android unit with my headphones
Hey Brother-thanks so much! When is a good time to use the SYNC button? And why does the Sync feature stop when you hit the CUE (hot) buttons?
My Hercules acts completely different when I use it through Bluetooth as opposed to when I plug it directly into my phone. It won't play or stop on the Hercules, I have to use my phone. But the other mixing functions work on the Hercules itself. When I back-cue on the vinyl toggle- it doesn't spin it backwards- it just slows it down. But when I have it plugged-in, it works just like vinyl, and the play stop works, so weird.
Really cool..Thanks
are u using an android phone or iphone. cheers
Compatible with Spotify music?
Can you have your ipad connected to speakers via bluetooth and use this unit to control the software ?
Can I use Spotify
Does it save the hot cue to the song so you don’t have to set it back up later?
I am looking for a little controller to throw in a bag and take on holiday for playing some music by the pool or on the balcony, I think this swill be ideal?
Hi Phil, thank you for the video. I was thinking of buying this controller but I wanted to use it also with my Serato library while traveling, besides using it with my phone. Do you if it's compatible with Serato as well?
Hi, can I use rekordbox & serato?

Hi, I could not really find it but how do you monitor using this controller and app? Ideally I'd connect wired headphones to my iphone and play the master via bluetooth. So far I've not found how to do this.
Hi. What is the difference between this and Hercules DJ Starlight serato?
My 14 year old wants a controller to connect to his android tablet and use his soundcloud playlists along side with his Bluetooth jbl speaker is this all even possible? Thx for the video 👍
you said its always good to mix in key and you are able to manipulate songs BPM to beatmatch between songs but is it possible to beat match to different keys, is there a hard an fast rule?
Perfecto gracias 👌
Any latency?
Will the software work on a PC?
Is spotify not an option?
Does it support Android phones or only IPhone?
For the headphones, do they have to be bluetooth?
Does it come with fully licensed app? Or just free version?
