Our take
I've been using the Inpulse 500 for a few months and it's been reliable. The 2-channel layout is straightforward, and the RGB pads are great for triggering hot cues. The sound quality from the built-in card is decent. However, the pitch faders are short, making precise beatmatching a challenge. The headphone output is also a bit quiet. Overall, it's a good controller for the price, but you might outgrow it quickly if you get serious about DJing.
