Which CDJ is best to work with for SSL

Denon 3700s /thread

Seriously…how do you people stand the 400s? They feel like a sick joke and still cost 700 USD.

Denon 3700's is the answer to all your needs.......

I hear that. I mean the unit itself isn't bad at all but at that price? Are they having a laugh?

I got a pair used for 450.00 (for the pair). Best 450.00 I ever spent. In HID mode they work awesome with SSL.


....agreed though, the jogs are not the smoothest, a little plastic feeling to them, but functionality wise they are pretty damn good.

Plus the 400s are portable as well,

but my $0.02 is never buy 350's, a mate has them, the FX on the mixer is TERRIBLE, the "exact" BPM is normally a mile off, and theyre just generally crap players.

For timecode, the Technics DZ1200.

How about the CDJ900? Its a got a sound card built in for Scratch Live and natively supported by Serato and Traktor...and VDJ for that matter.

But I own a Denon DNS3700. So that one gets my vote.

Just to avoid confusion, the CDJ-900 has a sound card but the interface itself is NOT compatible with Serato Scratch Live. SSL only works with a certified Rane interface.

You can use CDJ-900s as HID controllers for SSL (and they work very well indeed) but not as audio devices.

@Fullenglishpint
I'm using your bump to ask you a question. When on this thread first page you said

and the native support is soooo much nicer than using timecode.

What do you call native support ? USB/HID ?
If the answer is yes, why is that so much nicer than timecode ? What's bad with timecode ?

Thanks in advance
