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!
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 ❤️
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
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...
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
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
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?
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?
Hello everyone . Has anyone had trouble with the buttons SYNC CUE AND PLAY/PAUSE not working ??Lights are blinking and pressing them in the app they change colors in the deck , but then they keep not actually working when pressed , thanks
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 ??
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.
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.
i just bought this controller today and i tried my times to connect to my android device and its cant able to connect to this device. please someone can help me
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 demonstration of this little controller, however, you could go to your iPhone's settings to disable the screen saver !!! because it pisses everyone off !!! 😤😤😤!!!
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 👍
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 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)...
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 ?
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! 🎉🎉
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?
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?
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?
Hey ! I just bought it and received it today. Great lesson there, you’re video convince me to buy it as a second controller for on the go. I can’t figure out how to switch from hot cue to effects or loop (wrote in small under hot cue and sample) can you help me with that ? Thanks
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!
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

I figured the laptop would be better! 😀
Can it be connected to the iPad via USB instead of bluetooth?
Yes@@bradford2211
It's first time I understood the DJing lesson

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
This is my very first video lesson that actually really taught me something new. Thank you!
Excellent tutorial! Thanks! Next time perhaps you could do also a tutorial about precue with headphones :)
That was my 1st lesson and I really loved it. Thank you! Everything explained very clearly. Subscribed. 🌟
Amazing
Thanks. How link phone to both speaker and controller via Bluetooth? Also if you want to add headphones can you listen to each track individually?
Does it come with premium Djay app? or just the free version with annoying pop-ups?
Dear Phil, I just bought this controller and it has been an incredible help this tutorial for me thank you so much👏🏻👏🏻 So appreciated
Dr. Phil. 🫶🇮🇱🤝🇺🇲

Would have been a nice introduction if you had disabled the autofocus - never thought one could get seasick from watching a stationary filmed vid ..

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?
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! 🎉🎉

BadA__s tutorial.Thank you so much!
Thank you so much! It’s exactly what I was looking for.

Is spotify not an option?
I sure would love to see a tutorial on how to juggle double tracks with this. the whole shabang, under the leg around the back. That be hilarious.

Does it come with fully licensed app? Or just free version?
can I do what's called " chopped and screwed" music on this?
Do you find it glitches if it’s not in wave form mode?
Hey ! I just bought it and received it today. Great lesson there, you’re video convince me to buy it as a second controller for on the go. I can’t figure out how to switch from hot cue to effects or loop (wrote in small under hot cue and sample) can you help me with that ? Thanks

Does the split cable output stereo or mono sound, anybody know?
Also to make it easier find tracks with similar BMPs

Does it save the hot cue to the song so you don’t have to set it back up later?
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?

What is the difference between this model and the starlight?
