The DDJ-REV5 is a new-generation controller with Serato DJ Pro and rekordbox compatibility. This 2-channel unit offers an authentic scratch experience and innovative features including its large jogs, MAGVEL FADER, dedicated buttons for Stems control, the first-ever Auto BPM Transition, and Piano Play mode.
The large jog wheels are responsive, reliable, and easy to operate – with a feel just like those on classic CDJ units – and they each include a display with playhead position so you’ll always know where you are in the track. You can also customize the Jog Feel to find your perfect jog wheel “weight”. The MAGVEL FADER is slick, robust, and ready to translate every tiny movement you make so you can scratch with precision.
The long tempo sliders on the DDJ-REV5 run horizontally above the deck sections while the Performance Pads and Lever FX are placed in the mixer section for dynamic performances, emulating the PLX Series deck + DJM-S Series mixer setups loved by open-format DJs around the world. Thanks to the proximity of the pads, levers, and faders, you can fuse scratching with pad play and effects.
Easily make live mashups and remixes using the Stems buttons on the DDJ-REV5. Your tracks will be split into Stems within the software – vocals, melody, bass, and drums in Serato DJ Pro, or vocal, drums, and inst (other instruments including bass and synths) in rekordbox – which you can play separately. You can use the different Stems in combination with Deck Move, so it’s easy to make and control multiple live mashups and remixes at once.
Mixing between musical genres with vastly different tempos is easy with the new Auto BPM Transition. Choose a number of bars for the transition and, when you press the button, the playing track will gradually change tempo to match the one loaded to the other deck so you can seamlessly mix or drop in the new track. You can also set Stems, Auto Loop, and Key Lock control to be applied during the transition.
Just like Pitch Play, you can use the 16 Performance Pads to trigger a cue point in different semitones. But, with the new Piano Play mode, pitch changes are arranged so the pads form a piano keyboard, with the “white” keys on the bottom row and the “black” ones at the top. Choose from 3 scales and, even if you have no knowledge of musical theory or scales, you’ll find it easy to play a tune. You can use the DDJ-REV5 as the center of a larger setup thanks to its wide variety of inputs and outputs, including an XLR master out that’s perfect for use in professional environments. There are 2 USB Type-C ports for PC/Mac too, making it easy to swap between DJs with a simple flick of a switch on the controller.
Choose your favorite software and start DJing right away. You can simply plug the DDJ-REV5 into a PC/Mac running the latest version of Serato DJ Pro or rekordbox to use either application for free – you don’t need a license key or subscription. A voucher for the Serato Pitch 'n Time DJ expansion pack is also included.

After doing a lot of research in to the ideal controller for me I landed on the Rev 5 from pioneer. I like the pioneer brand and the consistency in their products and I really wanted a 2 channel back to basics controller set up with the stems incorporated. I have found after about 40 hours of use in a couple of weeks that I chose correctly. The weight without the motorised platters of the Rev 7 works great with moving the unit around to gigs and at home. Love that the screens I. The middle of the jog wheel are very basic and all buttons and pads are responsive and work great. Being able to use 3 pad modes at once is awesome and the jog wheels feel great and love love love the magvel crossfadet. This is a significant upgrade in quality and sound quality from the Ddj sx3 which I have played on for the last 5 years and loved. The only reason I’m not giving this 5 stars is the dedicated stems buttons. I would rather have the stems effects on the secondary function instead of solo the stem. Other than that I’m super happy with how this controller operates. The crew at Mix Foundation as always make it easy to do business with them. Cheers team.

Next step up
i have used a range of mics over the years from akg rhode and sure.my mic of chioce has always been my buddy holly Shure which they still make.My buddy holly is well over 25 years old and I looked for a new mic.
after looking at the super buddy holly I settled on the Shure Nex8s based on specs.So far this mic seems well worth the extra cost.From a warm low to a high volume growl with overtones it enables a huge range of vocal techniques.Highly commended
Glad I finally got some replacements. Can confirm it fits Mk5, Mk2 1200's

Age does matter
After putting off updating my 30 year Michelle turntable, RB 300 arm with AT 0C9 cartridge to the Technics SL-1210GR.
I was surprised just how well isolated this turntable is from vibrations and resonances . Coming from a fully suspended belt drive table, the amazing sound quality plus direct drive & ease of use is just a bonus. Totally happy with this product and the service from mix foundation.

Great product, great service!
I recently bought the Ortofon 2m Bronze from Mix Foundation. Phillip couldn't have been more helpful in the pre-purchase decision-making process, even going as far as consulting his Ortofon rep about compatibility with my vintage turntable and tonearm.
The product is still bedding-in but has already shown far greater depth and separation in the sound stage.
Couldn't be more pleased!

Perfect fit
Lighter, seemingly stronger and looks like it will last longer than the official covers (less brittle)

Like butter, no margerine here. Do wish the manufacturers paid more attention to the spindle hole, it could be smaller in diameter
