Hi Kareem, thanks for this nice review. Just one side note: Regarding the Smart Connection (Daisy Chain) of two units: Its also possible to only use ONE USB port with two NEONs connected. We have included the Y-USB Cable only in case if there is not enough power being supplied on multiple devices. But in most cases, you just need to use ONE port for two units.
I have a NS6.. still.. dont laugh... But I have the LPD8.. Its ok but I would like to upgrade to the Neon or the DDJ-Sp1. Which one would you recommend?
looks like a great way to control the SP6 sampler, i am thinking about adding to my Twitch setup to cut down on switching modes on my pads all the time.
Question… does it make sense to buy a Reloop if I already have a Pioneer DDJ SX. TheReloop would give me access to my Samples without using a Mouse? Right? I'll have control over the new Flip feature in Serato DJ? Right? Can I even do this?
With the SX, you already have Sampler control, but not as good as this does with the LED indicators. You can probably still access the Flip Feature in Serato DJ somehow on the original SX, but I'm not sure how. Check the serato or pioneer forums for your answer as I don't use the SX... Thanks.
Got a question. If you have a controller like the Numark V7 that already has some loop, fx, and cueing functions in the controller. Wulle the reloop neon still work? Will it override the controllers functional buttons?
thank for your info but i have a question how do u delete the sampler I have a numark n4 all my samples play all at the same time it socks an d some of the functions don't work on Chanel 2 just Chanel 1 whats wrong
I'm thinking about using to play my recorded samples, and also hook up to my Korg EMX for extra effects. Would that work? Also, do you need it to be hooked up to a computer for it to work?
+user89076 I don't think it can work as you want it to. It is a USB MIDI controller so that means you have to connect it to a computer to make it work and you can custom map it as you wish in a program of your choice.
I need Help. I am the first dj in Chicago have problem with Reloop Neon. I am using the SL1 Scratch Live. SL1 not unlock all programs i need help asap.
Dwayne Williams SL1 does not work with Serato DJ... You need to get an SL2 or wait for the cheaper Denon soundcard for Serato to come out.. it will be like only $300...
hello bro! i need a bit of help. yesterday i bought the relooper neón, and i have serato dj 1.0 and serato live 1.7 , the relooper neón works in this programs? i don't understand who use
+LaCueva BeatMake & Prod It only works with Serato DJ and it has to be one of the newer builds. You need to download a new copy of Serato DJ from the website for free if you already have it. Then it will work plug and play...
this looks pretty damn sick. Question, is there any way I could set it up the pad 707/808/909 modes from my Roland DJ 202 to work thru this? The pads on the 202 are pretty meh, this would be a dope addition for drumming.
I’m a novice DJ-I work with 2 technics and a basic mixer with no pads, so all of my cues/loops/hot keys/sp6/effects are done through my computer and/or mouse. I’ve been agonizing between the Neon Reloop and the AKAI AFX, but I truly can’t decide which would be better for me. All I keep hearing and seeing about each one is they do basically the same things but “this one is so much better in this area than the other”. I’m only going to buy one for now (I realize some DJs use both in their setup), so any advice/guidance regarding which I should get immediately would be more than helpful…
I'd go with the NEON actually because its small and can go anywhere. The AMX is long and larger and I like packing lightly when playing. You can also add another one of these and it would still be smaller than the AMX and you can use them together with one on top of each turntable. They even have small stands for them to sit right at turntable height... Good stuff...
What if I have a 2 channel controller such as the vci 380, will the neon allow me to access 2 more decks in the software? Or is this meant to allow you to access the functions in serato only?
absolutely yes ! However .. if you'd use Rekordbox to record your sets, then I'd go with the SP1. The Neon cán be used in Rekordbox, I've tried it alongside my Pioneer DDJ-SB2, but it's not working too great. I went with the NEON due to the fact I use Serato (as Indominex) :)
I need this for Traktor. The guys from Reloop commented and said they will be making a mapping soon for this controller to use in Traktor. I hope they put up a demo of it being used in Traktor or maybe they will ask you will do it Kareem. Thanks so much!!!
kcutz I know, but They are SO MUCH FUN!!! I wouldn't quit it just yet... Get a new mixer or interface that runs Serato DJ like the Akai AMX (only $250+99 to set up DVS)
Im tired of toggling decks 2-4 on my DDJ-SX2 for hot cues. That's all I need the neon for. Cant believe im about to pay $150 (reloop neon) or $250 for SP1 to do that... EVEN IF IT WILL WORK? These reviewers aren't covering it. Can it be on channel 2 while the jog wheels are 3/4? (channel 1 is for my samples)
I would like to add effects seperately to my sp6 sampler. I can’t do so with a two channel controller as far as I know. By adding this reloop neon, would I be able to control the sampler as its own channel and effects to it?
I am not sure if it does this automatically when you plug and play but you can surely use Serato DJ controller editor to Map the NEON to control whatever you want.

Great review Kareem, keep up the good work!
Are you able to turn off the touch sensitivity in FX mode? I'm the type that's just likes to press and NOT hold a pad to trigger the selected effect.
I don't think you can turn that off... That's just the way it works...
Just wanted to confirm that OK cool THANKS!
I have a NS6.. still.. dont laugh... But I have the LPD8.. Its ok but I would like to upgrade to the Neon or the DDJ-Sp1. Which one would you recommend?
looks like a great way to control the SP6 sampler, i am thinking about adding to my Twitch setup to cut down on switching modes on my pads all the time.
Great vids. I need to link up rekordbox to control song selections , scroll features with having to use the laptop touchpad. Thanks
Yes, this works for Rekordbox too, but you may have to program certain features. I don't know if its plug and play...
Excellent no nonsense review. I was wondering how to select the different decks. I just ordered one!
Thanks, I appreciate your comment!
Question… does it make sense to buy a Reloop if I already have a Pioneer DDJ SX. TheReloop would give me access to my Samples without using a Mouse? Right? I'll have control over the new Flip feature in Serato DJ? Right? Can I even do this?

Got a question. If you have a controller like the Numark V7 that already has some loop, fx, and cueing functions in the controller. Wulle the reloop neon still work? Will it override the controllers functional buttons?
It will still work... It won't override the controller buttons, but it will duplicate them...
***** Thanks and keep the Great Reviews coming.
thank for your info but i have a question how do u delete the sampler I have a numark n4 all my samples play all at the same time it socks an d some of the functions don't work on Chanel 2 just Chanel 1 whats wrong
Would this work great with a Ns7?
Yes it would!
***** thanks for your input. So that's what I'm getting next
***** one more question would I have to buy anything cables,adapters etc to connect this to my Ns7 or I'm good just with just what's in the box ?
Dj Crazy Eternal Sound This only connects to your computer and not the NS7, so only the supplied USB cable is needed...
Thanks for your video reviews, they help a lot with finding the right equipment.
Another great video Kareem. Does the reloop neon connect to your controller or to the laptop using a second USB port? I am confused. thanks.
jema1122 Plug this into another port on the laptop...
This is a must have in term of accessories... This is strange cose I received A double USB to mini usb on the Neon BOX... Am I the only one?
Can you only use 1 of them with an NS7FX? What the significance in using 2 of them?
+azoladder You can just use one with it just fine... Two is better so you can hop from deck to deck quicker, but it isnt a must...
+DJbooth DJ's thanx man...
Cool add on. Keep the videos coming dude.
What's that first track you played around 3:37? Very smooth.
I'm thinking about using to play my recorded samples, and also hook up to my Korg EMX for extra effects. Would that work? Also, do you need it to be hooked up to a computer for it to work?

It okay it was in face the hold time I have to click on MIDI to program everything
Do you have to use 2 for two decks or you can just get one
One can work with all 4 decks.
hello bro! i need a bit of help. yesterday i bought the relooper neón, and i have serato dj 1.0 and serato live 1.7 , the relooper neón works in this programs? i don't understand who use
+LaCueva BeatMake & Prod It only works with Serato DJ and it has to be one of the newer builds. You need to download a new copy of Serato DJ from the website for free if you already have it. Then it will work plug and play...
I Downloaded Serato dj 1.8 and don`t works in my coumputer, the screen goes black and freezes, but i will fix it. Thanks for your answer bro! Peace
I tried zooming in for the song you used, the name is "I don't know" but whose the artist?! Cheers
LOL, I don't remember... this was a while ago...
this looks pretty damn sick. Question, is there any way I could set it up the pad 707/808/909 modes from my Roland DJ 202 to work thru this? The pads on the 202 are pretty meh, this would be a dope addition for drumming.
I don't think you can use it for the sounds on the 202... That is inside the 202 itself...
Great vid!
how do you control the pitch with this?
can it be a stand alone controller to use with Serato DJ?
You can't unless you use it for another program or have a serato mixer or interface connected at the same time
I’m a novice DJ-I work with 2 technics and a basic mixer with

or the Pioneer DDJ Sp1
What if I have a 2 channel controller such as the vci 380, will the neon allow me to access 2 more decks in the software? Or is this meant to allow you to access the functions in serato only?
This does not unlock additional decks for you to play. This only controls the decks that your main controller or setup has already unlocked...
thank you, your videos are great!
taedog33 Thanks!
***** are there any products that I could connect to the VCI 380 to access the additional decks within serato?
taedog33 Nope... You need to purchase a 4-channel DJ Controller specifically for Serato DJ like the VCI-400 or DDJ-SX2...
would you choose this over the pioneer ddj sp1 as this is cheaper
absolutely yes !
However .. if you'd use Rekordbox to record your sets, then I'd go with the SP1. The Neon cán be used in Rekordbox, I've tried it alongside my Pioneer DDJ-SB2, but it's not working too great. I went with the NEON due to the fact I use Serato (as Indominex) :)
Please I’ll like to ask if it can work with serato rev1
Yes, but you may have to program it yourself.
Just got mine and it's good
Does the Smart Connection make it able to use 1 neon per turntable?
You can use these one per turntable, yes... You can also use one to work with both turntables too by selecting the deck you are using at that time...
Does this work with rekordbox
I need this for Traktor. The guys from Reloop commented and said they will be making a mapping soon for this controller to use in Traktor. I hope they put up a demo of it being used in Traktor or maybe they will ask you will do it Kareem. Thanks so much!!!
Hey gclef101, The Traktor mapping has been released and can be downloaded from the HenleyPro or Reloop website.
TRAKTOR Mapping for NEON can be downloaded here:
www.reloop.com/reloop-neon#download
ReloopDJ Thank you very much!!!
Will functions and features work running SSL 2.2.0? Will you have to map it out specific? Thanks!
This is for Serato DJ... Don't think it works with SSL... Time to upgrade.
Think you may be right.... Strip club gigs don't pay enough though!
kcutz I know, but They are SO MUCH FUN!!! I wouldn't quit it just yet... Get a new mixer or interface that runs Serato DJ like the Akai AMX (only $250+99 to set up DVS)
Good lookin out. Never heard of that Akai.. Have you done a review?
Not yet, but its coming, so make sure you subscribe to the channel!
How to change from browser to tree?
what controller are you using when you are testing it?
Vestax VCI-400...
hey would this work with a denon mc 2000 and serato dj intro_
hi. would this work well with my pioneer ddj s1 and full serato dj
Yes it will...
What was the song you were using in the video?
I'm using many different tracks...

Great review
Great review bro !

hi can this work with virtual dj 8
Can it be used with serato intro?
Nope, Serato DJ pro only...
@@RealDJblaze thank you.
Im tired of toggling decks 2-4 on my DDJ-SX2 for hot cues. That's all I need the neon for. Cant believe im about to pay $150 (reloop neon) or $250 for SP1 to do that... EVEN IF IT WILL WORK? These reviewers aren't covering it. Can it be on channel 2 while the jog wheels are 3/4? (channel 1 is for my samples)
Does this work with Serato ITCH?
luke bartlett Nope... Serato DJ.
Where is the Beat Jump?
will it work with denon mc6000mlk
Yes it will.
ok how would it hook up to USB
Just plug it into your computer...
Good job. Thanks.
I would like to add effects seperately to my sp6 sampler. I can’t do so with a two channel controller as far as I know. By adding this reloop neon, would I be able to control the sampler as its own channel and effects to it?
I am not sure if it does this automatically when you plug and play but you can surely use Serato DJ controller editor to Map the NEON to control whatever you want.
Thanks man
What song is that?
What's good bro! That song was a tupac track sample... I think its a track from Until the End of time if I'm not mistaken...
I hate my amx pads way to small
This is pretty dope cheaper than the serato one
Mint! :)
this with a mixar duo would be like having a bootleg s9 lol
ok thanks
I WANT one, or TWO.... your videos make me wanna be a gear slut....LOL Thanks again, keep shining bro...
