DJ Controller Designed Specifically for Serato DJ Software
The Pioneer DDJ-SX is an advanced performance DJ controller designed specifically for the Serato DJ Software.
Pioneer’s DDJ-SX Serato based DJ controller utilizes the software as the basis for its configuration and ergo-
nomic design, taking advantage of its features and integrating special trigger pads and controls. Pioneer also
implemented larger jog wheels for precise mixing and scratching, multiple inputs for expandability, and 4-channel
mixing flexibility.
Mixing With Serato
Included with Serato DJ software, the DDJ-SX provides additional features to take advantage of the software’s
capabilities which include a four deck sampler function, dual deck control, slip mode, FX mode and more.
 •Dual Deck – The DDJ-SX enables two tracks to be controlled at the same time allowing scratching or
setting and recalling hot cues on both tracks as if they were performed on a single track.
 •Slip Mode – When activated, Slip Mode silently continues song playback during a loop, reverse or
scratch and continues audible playback at the exact time when the loop, scratch, hot cues is ended,
resulting in smoother transitions.
 •FX Mode – Provides access to two types of effect modes, Multi FX and Single FX mode.
 •MultiFXMode–Allowsmultipleeffectstobeappliedsimultaneously.
 •SingleFXMode–Allowsasingleeffecttobecontrolledwithnumerousparameters.

Professional Design With Precise Functionality
The DDJ-SX can quickly access the multitude of features Serato DJ offers through its buttons, knobs, sliders and
performance pads. Thoughtfully laid out to deliver the best controller DJ experience, its buttons and knobs are
programmed to the applicable software functions.
 •Performance Pads – Pioneer added “performance pads” located below the jog wheel for four different
functionalities – HOT CUE, ROLL, SLICER and SAMPLER. Each soft-touch rubber pad illuminates in blue to
enable users to quickly tap the pad(s) for each effect, with the output volume varying depending on the
strength of each tap.
 •Large Jog Wheels – Larger than most current Pioneer controller models, the size of the jog wheels on the
DDJ-SX were increased in size for enhanced scratching and mixing performance. The resistance for each
jog wheel was fined tuned to provide users with the best “feel” and the shortest latency possible from any
controller. The unit also features an “On Jog” display located on the center of each wheel to provide
instantaneous visual feedback of playback status and the position of playing tracks.
