Nice accurate review. I've seen a few people bash this controller for reasons I completely disagree with. I own a mobile DJ business and do mostly weddings. I have two of these units and both myself and my other DJ love them. Very easy to use, lots of visual feedback on the controller and extremely dependable. One of the things not too many people have touched on is it's size. I have this controller mounted in a standard 19" SKB DJ rack case. If you're a club DJ, this might not be what you'd want to use, but as a mobile DJ, this is perfect. One more thing... I don't use Serato. This controller works very well with Virtual DJ. I've used Virtual DJ for the last 10 years. It has features I need that Serato doesn't, such as karaoke, video and playlists (for cocktail and dinner mixes). If I were a club DJ, Serato would be the better choice, but not for my line of work.
Hi Ed, can you please tell me how you've mounted this controller into a 19" rack? I'm buying this controller as an upgrade from my RMX but i had to buy special rack mount ears for that. Are you saying this fits right in the rack? Are there holes on the side of the controller to rack mount it? Or, do i need to order something special for this. Thanks in advance.
I work professionally as a children's recreator and in the hour I teach young teenagers the need for a DJ profession. I have a Hercules control Rmx2 to teach and take a Hercules Air control for the student to practice. At the end of a course I did a Djs battle and I enjoyed both the performance of a student (very poor) that I gave the only controller of them to practice. Now I plan to buy a Hercules Jogvision for myself and leave the Rmx2 for the students. What a beautiful profession, Goodness oh God !!!! Note: I love Virtual Dj...
salut j’ai un sérieux problème avec mon hercule jogvision hier après avoir jouer ce matin je remet ça en marche il s allume pas pourquoi je dois faire quoi le transformateur marche le câble marche aussi pourtant il s allume pas urgent jai payer ça ça faire pas 6 mois Hello De,
I thought the Roland DJ 202 had the best jog wheel at this $300 price point, not Jogvision 9:32? Can you comment on that? Maybe the Roland came after this and that is why? Please help me to understand.
DJbooth DJ's...why do you like the Jogvision more? I love the layout of the SB2--very intuitve, easy access to manual loops, filters, effects. Platters work well enough. The Jogvision platters are obviously very appealing. And this sounds crazy but the smaller footprint is an added plus. At that size, the jogvision should fit in a normal backpack. The SB2 is still a bit longer, so I need to find a better travel bag. Finally, the two outputs are obviously a plus. My gut tells me that my experience on the SB2 is really what I'm looking for, but I'm feeling that I wan to be sold on the Jogvision. lol
Quick question bro, what do you recommend, the Mixtrack Platinum DJ Controller, or the Hercules Jogvision DJ Controller, awesome video, I just subscribed to you, but, if you get a chance, could you please give me some feedback on this question, thanks you man. :)
Great review bro! Went out and bought one because of this video! Can I use this controller for weddings and event? I noticed It doesn't have balanced outputs (XLR connection), so do I need to buy a mixer or power converter or something to hook this up to a PA system to get quality sound? Sorry, I'm new to all of this! Bless!
Hello friend a thing that I did not see you do and discovered without wanting. If you take and activate air FX you place your hand and hit the button again without removing your hand the cut effect remains without touching anything. So you can do other things while using the frequency cutting effect. You press the button again and it is deactivated. Jejejeje test you are going to like it. You will tell me.
I have an old Numark double CD deck connected to my Numark mixer. Is it possible to connect that mixer to the Hercules unit via aux and select aux as a «left deck» or «right deck» if you understand? I want to be able to also use my old gear with this unit. Also as a backup. Can I mix from the Hercules right deck with my old mixer via aux acting as left deck?
So I ordered it and got it yesterday. Any idea why I'm not able to scratch while a track is playing? I tested in serato Dj and intro, also vdj 8. The vinyl mode button is engaged.
Hi, great review! I am about to buy one, but I see some got it to work with Windows 10 and some don’t. I do have Windows 7 now, but if I am buying a new laptop in the future it would come with Windows 10. Is the drivers the problem? Fixed now? I see this video is from 2017. Can you use Serato Lite with this unit? Thanks for all answers. 😊
Could I use this Controller with VirtualDJ 8? apparently I could load my Deezer on there. also, i'm torn between the Numark Mixtrack Platinum and this one, which one would you recommend for a beginner like me? Thanks for your videos, they're very helpful. cheers
Actual question. Ive been hearing rumors that this controller does NOT allow for the use of LOOPS and FX simultaneously since both features live on the same buttons. Is there truth to this??
Lies!!!! I dj with this all the time and I have performed these actions. Loop cannot work once the fx are active and can stay active once the fix button is off and you use loops same time while fx still active(not u cannot access loops once theft button is active)
very nice rewiew! But i want to use it only as controller. i want the sound to be heard from the sound card. is this possible? and do you know if i can use it as a daw controller assigning the device`s buttons to the daw‘s transport buttons? and did you face any problems with win 10 using the device? thank you
You can use this as a soundcard as well... You can also assign buttons and all knobs as it is a true MIDI controller that is programmable. No problems using this with windows 10.
well, i got serato intro and lite working with my windows 7 but not with 10. It just says Hardware disconnected with intro and Jogvision driver not installed with lite. I have installed it thousand times. Vdj8 works just fine.Wonder if you could throw little tip?
These companies need to look at real scratch DJs at work and stop putting the pads on the far side of the jogwheels. Watch any DMC guy and you will see that they are using their fader hand to hit cues while they scratch with the opposite hand.
Yeah I know that dude, but it would enable people to perform and learn to be ready for the big boy toys. And it's not just this controller but several others including very expensive pro models where the pads are placed too far away from the fader hand. I wasn't harping on Hercules I like them plenty.

Been using Hercules controllers for couple of years and this one is by far my favorite.
Hectic hey bro mine won’t turn on you know why
@@djmonsterbane Which one?
Hectic to this one on the review my wife bought it for me 4 months ago and 2 days ago it just stopped working when i was scratching
@@djmonsterbane Is it still under warranty?
Hectic no bro it’s not
The master level is on the deck selection knob, just hold down shift.

This is the controller of my dreams.
Me too
IM GONNA OWN THAT CONTROLLER SOON..CAUSE I LIKE THAT HERCULES JOGVISION..I GOT PIONEER DDJ-SB.. BUT I WANNA TRY THIS JOGVISION TOO...
NATURAL DZASTERS SOUND SYSTEM
NATURAL DZASTERS SOUND SYSTEM let me know if you prefer the SB or this JogVision, I'm stuck between both
I like the Jogvision more but the SB2 is cool too...

@@fabiansaucedo7821 the sb2 or sb3 is way better than this hércules controller

Same here! I really want to know!

You can just get adapters or cables that go from RCA to XLR to connect to any PA system... All audio stores have them...

does it have a tempo range button?
do I need this if I want to make synthwave music?
Would you recommend this to a gigging Dj. Would you say it's as durable as a mixtrack or ddjsb?
It's definitely gig-worthy. I would say it may even be more durable than most on this list...
Cool. Looking for something small I can still get busy on. I'm going to order one tomorrow.
DJbooth DJ's do you know if you can stick an innofader in it? I know you can put one in the rmx2
not without voiding your warranty. Contact Innofader to see...
So I ordered it and got it yesterday. Any idea why I'm not able to scratch while a track is playing? I tested in serato Dj and intro, also vdj 8. The vinyl mode button is engaged.
Great review! Definitely subscribing
How to control aux in
Any pitch blend?

You can use this with Serato DJ lite and it works with Windows 10!
Could I use this Controller with VirtualDJ 8? apparently I could load my Deezer on there. also, i'm torn between the Numark Mixtrack Platinum and this one, which one would you recommend for a beginner like me? Thanks for your videos, they're very helpful. cheers
Yes, this works with VDJ8. They are both great for beginners...
Will this controller work with a pair of polk bookshelf speakers
Yes, with the correct adapters!
@@RealDJblaze Thanks which adapters will work,
Can you explain what are the audio sources since it doens't have USB player.
connect this to the computer...
Ok, i was just wondering if it has some other options but thank you for so fast answer.
How To Use Aux In Mobile mode...???
Not so sure... This was a while ago...
Actual question.
Ive been hearing rumors that this controller does NOT allow for the use of LOOPS and FX simultaneously since both features live on the same buttons.
Is there truth to this??
You can use them both at the same time but you can't control them both at the same time...
Lies!!!! I dj with this all the time and I have performed these actions. Loop cannot work once the fx are active and can stay active once the fix button is off and you use loops same time while fx still active(not u cannot access loops once theft button is active)
This or the Inpulse 500?
Maybe the Inpulse, but its very close...
I got one but can it work with a condenser mic?
I have one and yes it does
Hi bro - Do you have any DDJ -RB Review?
Bless from PTY
Unfortunately, I never received one... Maybe I'll get it, but maybe not at this point. It's been out almost a year or so...

These companies need to look at real scratch DJs at work and stop putting the pads on the far side of the jogwheels. Watch any DMC guy and you will see that they are using their fader hand to hit cues while they scratch with the opposite hand.
This is not a DMC performance worthy controller... This is an entry level controller at best...
Yeah I know that dude, but it would enable people to perform and learn to be ready for the big boy toys. And it's not just this controller but several others including very expensive pro models where the pads are placed too far away from the fader hand. I wasn't harping on Hercules I like them plenty.
I'm early 😮
