23 July 2019 Update! Pioneer DJ WeDJ for android has now been updated to work with the DDJ 200! Update your app in the Play Store today and let us know your thoughts!
Good video. I was skeptical but it got it for it small size to carry around the house to use with my iPad. It actually works well on Web DJ(for iPhone) Speaking of WebDJ, I am using the iPhone version on my iPad and it seems to work well. You expand full screen so it looks it was made for you iPad.

Huh, this is actually a good practice piece for digital DJing, or for letting your kid try out DJing if he/she thinks it's their thing! Large tempo faders = good practice for pitch riding!
I have a DDJ RZ plugged into studio monitors and a couple drum machines & synths. Needless to say I have cables running all over the place. So I've absolutely had it with having to unplug all my gear to take it into the backyard for a BBQ or to a family event at my relatives or homies house. I mainly use my gear for recording podcasts for mixcloud or making tunes and mash ups. A few days ago I bought a powered speaker tower on wheels because unplugging my monitors has gotten tiresome. This speaker tower combined with this little guy is exactly what I was looking for. Now I can leave the flagship (DDJ-RZ) in the studio plugged into all my gear but have a cool little mobile rig for BBQs and wot not. Thumbs up from me. 👍👍 Obviously not trying to rock a proper venue with this gear but perfect for lil family and friend events such as BBQ's, birthdays, lil backyard weddings, mini raves (if you party like we then you already know what I mean) or just hanging with the homies. Dope! I'm getting mine this weekend! Boom!
Question, when using with Rekordbox does the Rekordbox software record the mix in Stereo to the computer like in normal use with the DDJ 1000 or other controllers? I would assume so because its recording the internal mix but I would like confirmation. I'm interested in this controller for when I'm traveling. I travel a lot in my job. I own a DDJ 1000 and I was going buy a DDJ 400 to take with me on trips but this controller may be sufficient and easier to pack in a carry on. If anything nice to have as a device for making cue points test mixes etc. I'm most interested in practicing mixing techniques and deep diving into Rekordbox software. But I do like the idea of DDJ 400 being closer to DDJ 1000 in design and features. I used to be a professional DJ that was strictly vinyl. I recently got back into DJing as my main hobby. Thoughts?
been waiting for someone to show the ddj200 with rekordbox and i think you are first! :) cheers and thanks! i will get one to use as backup for my ddj1000 and use it also for maybe prep mode adding hot cues/cue points, making playlists and testing mixes...all while sitting down or in bed! lol! now i just have to remap browse and load tracks to buttons i dont know which ones yet :)
I slagged this off no end when I got it as I had a galaxy s8+ & the bluetooth wont connect yet until July. But after begrudgingly plugging it into my laptop its awesome. Not at all toy like. I got this cos it's been 10yrs since my last vinal decks. When this is android compatible it will be ideal for carrying about & some mini rigs. Well built & well priced.
@@DannyMoreComedy On Algoriddim you have to use the USB cable rather than bluetooth. Edjing mix worked for me by clicking into the settings and scroll down to Connect to the DDJ 200. Both of these tested working on a Samsung Galaxy S9
@@DannyMoreComedy I didn't pair the unit to my phone first. Leave that bit and just let the app handle the pairing, it worked perfectly for me. Hope this helps :)
You have to subscribe to we dj i use deezer on my phone you have to buy an aux lead mimi headphone socket to miniheadphone socket its a great bit of kit had mine 2 years now
Thanks a lot - this video helped. Could you make a tutorial on how to actually use beatport link with the ddj 200. I can't seem to find the actual charts and the same goes for soundcloud.
There's adapters for everything. Depending on what you have. RCA to 1/8". 1/4" to RCA to 1/8". Digital to 1/8". If you have speakers there is definitely an adapter for it. If you're just starting out DJing eventually you'll have a wide collection of adapters lol.
I can’t seem to get it to work with my Bluetooth speakers. It’s either through the speakers or headphones. I’ve tried it with split audio on and off. Can’t seem to get it right 🤷🏻♂️
Hi thanks for this I’ve got this controller and I like to use it on rekordbox - can you explain to me please in simple terms how to add the sampler sounds to the performance pad as I could not really see and you went through that quite fast ..... thanks
Do you know if you absolutely have to use Rekordbox with this equipment? I have Djay app on my MacBook Pro and I like it a lot because it integrates with Spotify. Any idea if I can just use Djay app instead?
I really need help. Everything is set up correctly, phone settings correct yet I can’t get any sound through my speakers when using the WeDJ app. The speakers are working fine, I can play my music from my phone library through the speakers so that isn’t the issue. I really don’t know what to do
Joshua Edrich sure, you can plug it to the mac and download rekordbox for example, it turns itself into performance mode automatically when it recognizes ddj200 connected
Hey greetings from Miami I love this controller then there is an action that I'm not very sure how it works maybe you can explain it to me in the auto mix when I use the software I can select the left or right screen and the blending automatically does it every time that I touch that option on the screen in the software but when I do it in the controller if it wants to move the fader to the left to the right The mixed ring does not work simply what makes it cut and and start the other song Without mixing them is there any option so that I can use the controller and I can move the slider and thus do the automix let me know thank you
Hi.I’m about to purchase this DDJ-200 ..got s MacBook Air i5 (2015) what software do you recommend? Just want to record some mixes..will rekordbox do the trick? Or shall I buy a license for Traktor Pro 3? (89 gbp aprox)
Does this still hold up in 2023? I am learning how to DJ and have limited budget, so this seems like a pretty good option for the price, unless there is something better in the same price range For now the only DJ hardware I have used are the CDJ-200s, how is the DDJ-200 in comparison?
Nice vid. I just have a few questions. I'm thinking about getting the ddj 200 but i have an Android phone with my library full of music. Do you think it a good idea to getting the ddj 200? How is the edjing app what are some of the issues?
I cant work out where to import new music for the wedj app. Im using djay because i can use my playlist from soundcloud, however there is no master tempo on the app. Is there either a) a way to import songs on the wedj OR b) where iis the master tempo on the djay app, without engaging sync?
Master tempo is the little music note icon next to the faders in Djay :) There's an add tracks button at the bottom left when you're in the select song window in WeDJ. Hope this helps!
There must be a way to record as I’m using the DJAY app with my ddj200’s and mixing music off soundcloud but it will not allow me to record via this app . I’m running the decks off my ipad is there any way of recording a set so I can then upload my mix’s . Of course with normal decks you can use a sound card but I know you can’t do this with the ddj200’s . Can anyone help me in any way please . I would greatly appreciate it
Guy Homer yes this is the problem I have . Is there anything to buy to record a set or I’m guessing it’s the case of just making live videos and uploading them to TH-cam / social media ?
@@OliverGreen2Real sure to be a way around it, I haven't looked but there is probably a way of adding another splitter cable to the one already being used so you could run it into a laptop and record it, if you look on djkit TH-cam channel there's a vid on there about ways to livestream, sure on there he mentions recording when using mobiles/tablets.

Can anyone tell me if you can access settings for the crossfader? For some reason as soon as I move the crossfader over it almost immediately cuts the track out?
Peter Purcell it the blackweb part speaker ( they sell it an Walmart and online) is really good for volume and has an aux input for if the Bluetooth battery dies also pretty light and easy to cary
Utilizzando la micro usb per convertire e sdoppiare per l’uscita cuffia e master, come si carica lo smartphone o tablet? Non puo lavorare solo con la batteria per tante ore… fatemi sapere grazie.
Size is greater than the Inpulse 200 but lower than the 300, main issue, is the lack of gain and sound card on the Pioneer than limit a lot the possibility. Main advantage, is the streaming capabilities, even if the Inpulse 200 and 300 are now supported on DJAY Pro MAC and Windows.
I dont know how to listen to the mix only with the headset, before i send it to the live sound, i tried it yesterday for the first time and didnt manage, how is that done?
Got the ddj200 for 40$ and I feel like im really getting the hang of Djing, this tutorial's made me understand the machine alot!
How do you add music? Can you use Spotify?

Almost 100% certain it does as it's recording the files internally, shall investigate for you though :)
Thanks for the vid! What is your opinion between the 200 and the Wego4?
As a novice, can I set this up to my PC/Mac and use the apps recommend for the phone?
Can you use the Djay Pro 2 on the laptop with the DDJ 200?
Bought one, and yes you can!

With the cables they send it can only play in mono but you can get around that with a soundcard
Hey guys. My bose speaker has a delay when exporting audio, is there any
way I can manipulate and fix this delay on the Djay app?
7:14 can you hotcue a loop in traktor as well?
So glad I watched this. What I thought was a defect turned out to be a split cable mistake. Whew lol
Does it just connect wirelessly to my phone or do I need some kind of connector? Tia
Wireless

Does it have Gain ? How can we change the volumn with it?
The WeDJ will automatically set gain, you can adjust the trim under the XY effects pad to the left hand side if you want to change it.
how does yours work with rekordbox? mine doesn't...
I'm confused how you connect to music system
No input lag?
Does it work with Spotify
