Hercules DJControl Inpulse 200 MK2 - Compact Controller - Serato & DJUCED

Bought this for my partner but ended up using on my Mac. Was very simple to setup and worked straight away with my macbook, no compatibility issues. Well made and solid feeling. Small enough to tuck away in a drawer when not in use and portable for taking to a party. For the price I cant grumble as someone using for fun and nothing serious! Cheap, fun to use and looks the part.

I’m a bit confused by some of the negative reviews. I checked my computer requirements before, worked out I don’t have the requirements for the stems function, but that I could download an older version of the Djuced software and discovered the controller worked well with my slightly older computer. I’ll upgrade the computer later to get outright full functionality but the controller has 95% of the functions I need as a casual home DJ. After ensuring I had the right version of Djuiced downloaded, and the audio drivers recommended by the Hercules website it was literally plug and play! I was so chuffed. The Djuiced software (proprietary to Hercules and free of charge!), I sense is perfect for 95% of beginners/casuals. Most of the other controllers only work really well with paid or subscription based software, which suddenly makes casual entrance to home djing become very expensive. Essentially with this being a very reasonably priced controller with really good free software, I think this might be the best entry level controller.

This is a cool controller, if a little basic. I think for some it could be ideal, but I found myself not needing/using the guide lights and after a very short period I feel I want a controller with more features already

Bought because I needed a small portable set of decks for making mixes that come to me while I’m travelling around the world without the luggage space to bring my full size decks & honestly for the price of these they cannot be beaten. A bit worrying that the cable is built into them rather than being one you can swap out in case anything happens, but it’s a decent braided cable so hopefully should be sturdy enough to last for a good few years, plus I won’t be using it that often. Simple but good, the stems button is a great touch and I’ve even reprogrammed my main controller to have the same function since it’s so useful having them there on the decks. Looks a bit less like a kids toy than the little newmark set with the disco light too which is a huge plus 😆

I absolutely love this controller. This is my second attempt at learning DJing, and now I feel much better about it. I found it to be really light and small—lighter than a MacBook Air, in fact. It's awesome that you can just put it in your backpack. Djuced is good software, but of course, I've also tried Serato and other software like Virtual DJ, Traktor, and Djay Pro. I found that it works pretty well with Djay Pro and Traktor Pro 3 (if you set up the mapping). I haven't had any problems with the controller, but you must understand that it doesn't have a full EQ (missing mids), and you can't control the FX part. However, if you use Traktor Pro 3, you can map it with modifiers, which helps you achieve almost everything you need. Now I have a Traktor S3, but even with it, I can't say that I'm ready to return or sell the Inpulse 200. It helps me to check my mix or just prepare my playlist for future sessions.

My daughter loved this device. Great device, easy to use even for a old person like me!

Bit fiddly downloading software from web, taking a bit of getting used to, but otherwise plug and play, does what it says. good starter laptop mixer

Good bit of kit. Works well

I bought this as a gift for my teenage son, and he absolutely loves it! He has been having so much fun learning and creating music, and his friends enjoy using it with him too. It is a great beginner DJ controller, easy to use, and perfect for anyone interested in mixing music. Definitely a fun and exciting gift!

Très bonne surprise avec cette table de mixage DJ Hercules Inpulse 200 MK2 ! Parfaite pour débuter comme pour progresser sérieusement dans le mix. La prise en main est rapide, les commandes sont bien pensées et le logiciel est facile à utiliser. Les jogs sont réactifs, les effets sont sympas et on arrive vite à prendre du plaisir à mixer.
