About this product
The Hercules Inpulse 200 MK2 is a budget-friendly 2-channel DJ controller with a compact, portable design. It features 8 backlit pads, a built-in audio interface, and software included (Serato DJ Lite). The controller offers pitch control, a 3-band EQ, and effects like filter and loop/sampler. It is USB-powered and compatible with Mac and Windows.
Our take
For $90, the Inpulse 200 MK2 is a fantastic starter controller. It's lightweight, USB-powered, and works seamlessly with Serato DJ Lite. The backlit pads are responsive, and the built-in effects are a nice bonus. However, the build is mostly plastic, and the small jog wheels take getting used to. The lack of a mic input and only one phono input limits flexibility. If you're just starting out and want a low-cost way to learn, this is a solid choice.
