About this product
This Hercules 2-deck USB DJ controller works with Serato DJ Lite and DJUCED. It's a double deck controller designed for mixing tracks. At $249.99, it offers an intermediate step up from basic controllers, with more features and better build quality. It connects via USB and is powered through the bus.
Our take
This Hercules controller is a nice middle ground. I found the 2-deck layout intuitive, and the transition from DJUCED to Serato DJ Lite was smooth. The jog wheels are decent for scratching, and the pads are responsive. However, the plastic casing feels a bit cheap, and the lack of dedicated FX controls is disappointing. Also, it's bus powered, so you need a laptop with USB power. Overall, it's a solid controller for the price, but don't expect pro-level performance.
