“The Glue” is probably Threadlocker. It’s a common practice to ensure the screws won’t work themselves out over time especially when equipment like this is moved around all the time. It would be recommended to clean off the old Threadlocker and put a dab of some new Threadlocker before you reassemble. It can be found at most hardware & automotive stores. Possibly even Walmart. Threadlocker blue is the common one. 👍 Thanks for the video bro. I still need to order mine. 😢
I’ll be dropping one soon. Ive just been extremely busy closing out the year. Be expecting one early next year. But what the person said above this comment is right! Practice makes progress! Keep at it 💪🏾
Do you have issues with the start button lagging when pressing it? When I click mine it doesn’t start the song in sync with serato right on time, there’s a slight delay.
Looks nice, thinking of copping a premium module later on unless i can find a innofader for tha low or sumn. Anybody know if theres a big diffrence? I like the premium one cause it looks nice too imo
can you please provide the link ? Is there anything we can do with contour? Because when mixing I feel like the song from either deck comes in a little to hot. Great video thank you.
Say my brother , is the belt drive platter really an issue like people claiming on TH-cam because im having a hard time deciding on the t7, ddj rev 5, and possibly the rane one 👍🏽please give me your opinion on this matter. I grew up on turntables and im 51 years old and at this age even though I know how to scratch im more concerned about moving the crowd with "MIXING "👍🏽
I just got this thing and love it. Also grew up on 12s which need some maintenance and a new mixer. Copped this for $599 open box and it’s so much min to just click on and cut. If nobody told me I’d have no idea it was belt drive and I had DD50s in 1991 so I know the diff. Love the form factor as well because the Rane or 12s would take up too much room. I tried a REV 1 before this and couldn’t live with spinning platter feedback. Go ahead order you one and return it if you don’t like it.
@@jhirn2957 so you prefer the spinning platters over jog wheels? Why you didn't wait and go for the rane one controller? And are the jog wheels really hard to get use to?
As a DJ, who learned on turntables, I can honestly say I prefer moving platters. To be honest with you I haven’t noticed the belt drive being an issue. It’s pretty smooth to me with no delays. If you are looking for something inexpensive, that gives you the comfortability with moving platters, this is definitely the controller for you. In my opinion, I do not like the rane one because of the crossfader. It’s way too tight. If money isn’t an issue, I would go with the Rev 7
Hey frat - I am new to all of this. Is this a good controller to learn and grow, or should I look at a 4 channel like the NS4FX. I want to learn how to scrtach but I need to learn the basics first ya feel me. Also, any tips for someone just trying to learn the basics will help alot. Thanks MAB!
Thank you! Serato does have glow in the dark vinyls. I found some on walmarts website: Serato SCV-PS-GID-7 Control Vinyl Pair - 7 Inch www.walmart.com/ip/2714222204 I got the Slipmats on glowtronics website.
@@ItsDJGSmoove somehow the timing when backspinnin or tryin to beat juggle moves my marker off vs doing it on the rane 1 I have. Much smoother. And I’m tryin to figure out how to get the volume faders to adjust contour any tips how ?
@@iamdjmazeits because there's not enough torque to handle backspinning for beat juggling. I notice when I try to juggle, I end up stopping the platter and feeling the belt move backwards . That's probably why you're drifting. Direct drive will always be better.
Dude that said he created this thing said the guy who did the original review didn't recalibrate that thing and that's why he didn't like cross faders. Guy who made them said it doesn't need an upgrade by design it's only built to be upgraded when you break the damn thing so don't waste your money for something you shouldn't even need till it breaks you still need to recalibrate it if you do spend the money on that
Just scooped this T7 on sale today and I’m feeling those fader upgrades. Speaking of which, that clear cap you’re cutting with. Is it included or is it color cap/ chroma cap brand? I don’t see any info on which aftermarket caps fit the t7 or the innofader minis. Alot of folks buying this unit are gonna love this video!
Guys he is bugging if u think this is better than the rev 7. This this is too “plastic ish” And I’ve played on this thing in the store no way I’m switching from a rev 7 to this
If you listen real close, you’ll hear I never said that it was better than the rev 7. I said it was my favorite and I said I have one. Appreciate the view though.
@@djbeazy hey I get it. It all comes down to each preferences. But that t7 you can feel the difference between the two as for a beginner this is perfect to start with but as soon as you move on up you will see the imperfections real fast with it is it more mobile than the rev 7 yes. Is it better to have a motorized than static jog. Yes at least for me I will re watch the video maybe I mis understood what the author said if I did I will correct myself and apologize
Great controller, use mines for podcast and live radio ,don’t sleep people,great review,will upgrade one day.
wow man, your scraching is really impresive!
I can't wait till I get my order. It looks super clean!
Great video.
Glad you enjoyed it, Thank you!

The fader part is transparent. It's cool.😊😊😊

Nice scratching man!

Lots of practice and trying different patterns . Just keep scratching it ll come to you 😊
I’ll be dropping one soon. Ive just been extremely busy closing out the year. Be expecting one early next year.

Where did you get the clear vinyl.

What’s Frat! 🤘🏾. I just bought the T7. scratch so it’s gonna be a while before I upgrade.
What’s up Frat! 🤘🏾 you’ll love it when you do.
Did u say you would put this above ur rev 7?!
I think it looks really cool. I subbed and liked, technical question my brother; yo did you ever try removing one of the platters?
Thanks for the sub! I have not tried to remove the platter yet, there hasn’t been a need to, but I have opened it up to look at the belt.
🔥🔥
So does the original cover plate not go back on or fit after you put in the new fader? Do you have to use the clear one ? Thank you in advance
The original cover can go back over it, I just like the transparent plate.
Great update for nice controller, only thing is volume faders keep going down when you go to wild on crossfader 😂 Nice cutting BTW 👍
I haven’t experienced this. But ill look out for it. Thank you! 🙏🏾
Sweet setup. Love The clear vinyls, I saw serato have glow in the dark too. I was curious about those too. Where did you get your mats ?

I got the faders on the Jesse Dean Website. It’s the glow in the dark ones.
Fantastic thx
Nice setup... Scratching needs work, but sounds pretty decent... Keep practicing....
Thanks for your opinion, I look forward to you posting content on how I can improve.
@@ItsDJGSmoove Wow. You post a video of you showing a skill, and get mad at the moment of critique... LMFAO
Quick question bro I got a rev 1 should i upgrade to the T7?
yes
Just get a Rane one!
Guys he is bugging if u think this is better than the rev 7. This this is too “plastic ish” And I’ve played on this thing in the store no way I’m switching from a rev 7 to this
If you listen real close, you’ll hear I never said that it was better than the rev 7. I said it was my favorite and I said I have one. Appreciate the view though.
Rev 7 could be better. But when you have a favorite and a go to controller for all purposes that is a major factor.

Comparing the t7 to the Rane one or Rev 7 is like comparing a base model civic to the civic type r. Completely different machines.
Basic Hercules T7 maybe, but with this upgrade it's like a New turbo / exhaust and remapping ... So it can compete your type R .
Everyone witha rane or rev 7 getting butt hurt .
Right 😂 like it’s not an opinion.
