You already have turntables and a midi-controller, want all relevant features of the new CDJ3000s for at home - but not invest 5000 bucks - or bother with Traktor or Serato and syncing your track database?
Well, the solution might just be 300 bucks away!
My review of the Pioneer DJ Interface 2 and using it as DVS with Rekordbox on an old Lenovo Hackintosh Laptop with my Xone k2 Midi-Controller.
Let me know in the comments if you have any questions.

    Great video, gave me lots of ideas for my own setup. I just had to say i absolutely love your watch! People dont know about these oldschool watches!
  • @djdecimator97
    Just wanna suggest, for those who don't have a mixer yet and don't wanna buy a sound interface, there are a bunch of mixers out there that are dvs ready like the Traktor T1 back in 2010 I guess and lately, the Z2. I also have tons of vinyl records but when I discovered dvs, (I got the Audio 8 and the S4), I fell in love with it (back in 2009), when Traktor was still at par with Serato dvs-wise.

    Nice video! Thanks for short review 👍
  • @adrianburns7363
    Great video mate. Do you know if its possible to use standalone controller effects while running the vinyl through the interface 2? I have an rx2. Thanks man !
  • @chappie505ec
    Now can you show how you connect everything please
  • @damien9788
    La vidéo que je cherche depuis longtemps !🔥👍. Le son est bon avec la carte son ?. J'espère que tu feras un mix avec l'interface pro 2 bientôt.
  • would this work with a controller? z.B. a DDJ FLX6 with this device, then have the FLX6 output the audio, while also being able to control it over the FLX6s mixer?
  • @m_tron99
    I love vinyl but don't have a big record collection. I used to play on Traktor and CDJs and looking at getting a DVS setup. Would you recommend Pioneer over Traktor for this?
  • @chappie505ec
    Like your video but show plug in everything please setups
  • Hi, kann ich jeden midi controller nehmen um mit dvs aufzulegen bzw die software zu steuern?? Hab einen alten von akai für musikproduktion mit den typischen pads.. Mach deine videos auf deutsch, englische gibt eh zu viele..lg
  • Cool Video! Because of you I buyed 2 technics mk2 and an allen an heath xone 96. The Xone 96 has a buildin audiointerface for traktor scratch but i have recordbox on my Laptop but dont have the Pioneer Interface. Is it possible to use the Pioneer DVS without an Pioneer interface? and i just buy the pioneer Vinyl? sorry for my bad english
  • Thanks for the video :) Obvious question - @defex Would you say Pioneer DJ INTERFACE 2 is a worthy alternative set-up (and new investment) instead of Serato - in light of the Rane SL3 being discontinued? Tks
