DJ T7 Premium, 2 Deck Motorized DJ Controller with built in STEMS Control, Serato DJ and DJUCED included Gold

This is hardly a "budget" controller in the sense that you can get $150 little controllers that have jogwheels and all the buttons and knobs you need. But there is nothing like a spinning vinyl platter for a scratch DJ. The other dual spinning platters on the market are in the $2000 range. So compared to those this is indeed the "budget" model. It has all of the essentials and then some. It's got a beat match guide, with lights that help you master beat matching. Which is perfect for beginners. It has the 8 performance pads per deck, meaning 16. And each 8 has 8 different modes. Some of them you can program in your software. Speaking of software. That's what outputs all of the sound, effects, and mixes you do. This is just a controller. I highly advise if you are serious about getting into DJing even for a hobby. To watch some videos about different DJ software out there. Serato Pro, DJay Pro, Virtual DJ, and Rekordbox are among the top popular. I chose Virtual DJ myself. To get good performance. You need a PC or laptop with atleast a good i5/ryzen5 or i7/ryzen 7. And I would suggest 16gb of ram. To use "stems" which is an amazing tech that can separate the voice from the base, strings, and basically all of the individual elements. This allows you to do amazing things like rip acappelas straight from any song. Back in the day DJ's would have to buy separate acapella versions of the same song. And you can blend different sounds from different tracks together for amazing new mixes. I personally like to rip voice out of songs to use as scratch samples. There are some other good jogwheel decks out there like the Pioneer Rev1 but this is about the most affordable (and nice quality) deck controller that has dual moving vinyl platters. And the thing I like most is this looks like an old school 80s battle DJ deck. Just miniature size. It's got a sick look. And I dig it.

Everything was good. Delivery on time safe and sound. Product works great!

It turn off on its own but the turntables still move. I had a wedding and it didn't twice and at a bar I deejayed it. This unit was 799 when I first bought it in October and now it's way less. I wonder why! Pure trash. Save money and buy a pioneer!!!!

So I'm still fairly new to DJing. I've been serious about it for less than a year, but I saw this and couldn't pass it up. Obviously the star of the show is the motorized platters. They just make you look like a more seasoned DJ. There is a slight delay at started. I get around that by using the cue buttons to get the music started and then activate the platter. The next big advantage (for me at least) the the dedicated "instrumental" and "vocal" buttons for Stems. Being able to toggle these with the push of a button have absolutely allowed me to easier mix/blend songs in different ways. On the flip side it has, rarely, just stopped outputting sound for no apparent reason. I was only practicing so it's never happened during a performance but yikes, what if it did?! Also, I don't know if this is a symptom of the controller or the software (Segrato Pro) but sometimes the tempo won't stay set where u put it after u adjust the slider. You can't "set it and forget it". When you are testing the mix in your headphones you'd better check that the upcoming BPM stays where you put it and make adjustments if needed. Anyway, I have 4 controllers and this is the one that allows me the most functionality to unleash my creativity. Definitely recommend for newer DJs looking to take their craft to the next level but don't want to spend 4-figures yet.

I’ve had it for about a month now, hasn’t disappointed me.

So far quality and smooth functioning has been surprisingly good and with excellent sound. I'm having fun with it and it's a good buy for the price.

Excelente equipo

Really happy with this purchase !!!

I started DJ’ing about two years ago. I purchased the premium gold Inpulse 500. This was an excellent controller for a beginner. Needless to say, I was very excited when the T7 was announced. So I purchased standard T7 in December 2023. First, I was disappointed to find that Hercules released a premium gold version two months later in Canada, but it was too late for me to return the standard edition. I would have happily spent the extra $100 for the premium. My second issue is that the box was slightly damaged. I’m not sure if this had any effect on the controller. My third issue is that the crossfader is sticky. If the unit has been sitting, the first time I touch the cross fader requires consider force to move it. It’s almost as if it’s locked. I have to nudge it quite hard to loosen it. At first I thought, maybe I will buy Innofader upgrade. But then I see Hercules released their own performance crossfader, which also comes on premium gold T7. Again, not a good look Hercules. My next issue, is the biggest issue of all. The controller will randomly stop working. Audio works, but all lights/LED’s turn off. Effects, faders, paddles all stop working. I know the unit still has power because the platters are still spinning. The platters are the only thing that works. See attached video. How can I use this for gigs? I cannot trust that it will not shut down in the middle of my set. I’m not sure if I got a lemon/bad unit, but I am passed the return period, so I am stuck with it. I regret purchasing the T7. Very disappointing experience with T7, especially since Inpulse 500 was so good. Maybe the premium gold is better quality, but this standard version sucks. I should have spent extra few hundred dollars and got Rane1.

Crossfader of DJ got failed after few day of buying it . Never expected a product from amazon and Hercules. Had so much expectation from the product and put my hard earn money in it . Now regreting , never ever gonna trust in amazon now last purchase from this site .

Don’t waste your time or money with this controller. I went off several reviews before buying this, finally pulled the trigger after two years of mauling it over, when I finally got it and hooked it up I noticed that it made a crackling sound, it almost sounded like static noise like when you play a regular vinyl record. I looked everywhere for info to see if this was a normal thing, it isn’t. Many users have claimed that it tends to make noise every now and then. This is not acceptable of a controller priced over $1300. I have a two year old IMac at home and a one year old PC laptop, the laptop has 32gb memory, Ryzen 7 5000 series and Serato is the only thing I run on it. I have optimized the laptop settings because I need it to be reliable. And it works great with my numark controller. I have switched the RCA and the USB-B cables to ones that are meant for audio, re-installed the drivers several times, changed the buffer settings, played with MP3, WAV and AIFF files and they all do the same thing. I started the return for that one. Then I bought a second unit, that one was even worse. Not only did it have the same issues, but this second one has lights that do not turn on. There is a light under the platter that lights up indicating which deck is playing so you don’t accidentally kill that side. Deck 2 doesn’t light up. I posted a video. I reached out to Hercules and the only response I got back was, record a video so we can make the return process easier for you. I’m sorry, what? The item is faulty. Both items are faulty. There shouldn’t be ANY issues with the return. I had high hopes for this device considering all the praise it has received over the past two years, save the money and go for a Rane instead.

Vino fallada y no me lo quisieron cambiar mucho cuidado. Luego no hacen válida la.garantia. y muy mala solucion

Power cable was missing Also the box wasn’t sealed packed it was opened
