Holiday Buying Guide: Best DJ Gear of 2022
Have you checked out our 2022 DJ Gear Holiday buying guide? We put together a guide of all the DJ gear you need to put on your Christmas wish list this year. Here is our list of the best DJ gear of the year:
1. Pioneer DJ DDJ REV-7
Pioneer DJ made their first moving platter controller. And it is AMAZING. Straight out of the box, the REV7 is a club-ready controller. Its battle style layout takes on the form of a DJM-S mixer + PLX turntable setup, all compacted into one 2-channel DJ controller. Its new moving platters are perfect for turntable DJ’s. Plus, the new Instant Scratch feature comes with 4 built-in scratch sounds that you trigger by pressing the corresponding hardware buttons. If you’re a turntable, scratch, or club DJ, you need a REV7 in your gear arsenal.
The REV7 retails for $1999. Buy yours now here and we’ll ship you a free gift to go with it.
2. The Pioneer DDJ-REV1
The little cousin to the DDJ-REV7, the REV1 still sports a battle style layout, but comes in a much more compact size. This is a great starter control for DJ’s looking to take their sets up a notch. It’s simple to use and easy to use at gigs. Plus, you get to practice on a controller similar to the club-ready REV7. Once you get confident using the REV1, you’ll have no problem upgrading immediately to the REV7 or most other Pioneer DJ Controllers, which are industry standard. If you’re a pro DJ already and you use the REV7 at gigs, then the REV1 is a great controller to have in your back pocket to practice on, and use for ceremony systems, and other smaller events. When you’re traveling or unable to lug around your large REV7, practice on your REV1 for a similar feel to what you’ll be using at your gig.
The REV1 currently goes for $279. Buy yours now here $279.
3. The Pioneer DJ XDJ-RX3
The Pioneer XDJ-RX3 has always been great. But, it just got even better with its recently added Serato compatibility. The XDJ-RX3 is a standalone DJ controller which features industry leading Rekordbox software built in\. It is now also serato compatible. Its included 10-inch touchscreen means you don’t even need a laptop to DJ with this beast when using rekordbox. Pull up your digital library right on your RX3 or download your playlist via USB and get DJing. It has two platters, 8 effect pads, and an ample included touchscreen. It’s like using a CDJ-3000 + NXS2 setup, only at a third of the price.
4. AIAIAI TMA-2-DJ Headphones
These modular design headphones were designed just for DJ’s. Its mod friendly design means you can replace each part as you desire. Want to make it wireless? Buy the wireless modular kit. One of your ear cups broke? No problem, you can replace it. Headband broke? Replace just the headband.
