As a DJ I find it very easy to use this controller and I enjoy mixing with it

Arrived today (earlier than expected), spent the day giving it a good test & I must say that for the money this is an amazing controller.. Absolutely perfect for me as a mobile DJ. It has many features of the big boys at a bargain price, well done Hercules, great bit of kit! Spot on communication from djkit via email no complaints at all, will use with confidence in the future!

Just perfect for what I need it for.

Brilliant machine wish it came with serato dj pro added expense. The add said next day delivery that never happened it took about a week to come, so if you don't mind waiting go with this company.

Very impressed with this controller. So far seems to be well made and well thought out. I have even rigged a turntable into the aux channel. Would recommend highly for beginner/ Intermediate level. Came with Serato pro too

Amazed! Absolutely spot on the delivery, thanks!

Great piece of kit does everything I want. Fantastic service from DJkit.com.

large size , it gives you the impression that you have a professional controller in your face, nice knobs, everything is super

Great Experience with djkit

Amazing DJ controller from Hercules it looks & feels great, it is exactly a controller with a host of features. Comes with DJUCED & Serato lite. I already have Serato pro licence. Easy to use & to set up. Lights are amazing underneath the controller. It has a host of inputs & outputs ideal for me I no longer need a separate mixer the Hercules inpulse 500 a fantastic piece of machine for such an affordable price.

Great controller

Some piece of kit cracking price and very fast delivery , would buy from again and if your looking for a starter kit this is it

Firstly. Don't let the cost of this controller put you off. Yes it's a budget price but this is definitely not a budget controller. For starters it's larger than most budget devices. Using it gives a more premium feel, don't get me wrong this will not replace a club controller, but a small bar could get away with this. For the bedroom it gives all that you could ask for. The buttons have a nice feel and you get good feedback using them. There is a satisfying "click" at the end of the travel that assures you you've done what you meant to. DJuced is OK as is Serato Lite (it comes with both) but if you can afford it definitely spring for this and Serato Pro. The beginners "this is how you beat match" features are assuring for someone who hasn't mixed before but to be honest were a total distraction to me so they were turned off immediately. If you are looking at starting out DJing (or like me returning to DJ'ing) then you won't go wrong using this as a starter kit. As I said before you wouldn't go wrong using this in a small bar or as a mobile DJ either so this could be the start of something special for you..

Certainly lives up if not betters all the reviews I've seen/read on this new prodcut from Hercules, prior to ordering I was considering the DDJ-400 as a starter controller but opted for the Hercules following the great reviews and the earlier availability and I'm so glad I did. Great bit of kit to get you started and to develop to past the beginner stage.

This is my first real controller and it is amazing. The look the feel and everything else. The service from djkit was amazing from the customer support to the online ordering and the deliver was perfect. I just need to learn how to use it now.

Really pleased with this new release from Hercules. Having been on the preorder list for a ddj400 for sometime I switched to this product with the free upgrade to Serato DJ Pro for the preorder. Excellent build quality and highly recommended. Excellent service from start to finish by djkit.

Still just having fun with this and it looks like my first outing with it will be my grandaughters 18th Nice bit of kit for not a lot of money and a free upgrade to serato Pro so bigger bonus well happy

Great controller and fast deliveries

This is a really simple review to write. The Hercules Inpulse 500 is simply amazing and such a great controller. Once you have it you can understand why it beats others such as the very popular Pioneer DDJ-400 hands down! Well done Hercules, this controller is super!

For the price, this is an incredible piece of kit. Definitely get Serato DJ Pro to enjoy all the benefits it has to offer

Djkit were good from beginning to end. Love it!

I ordered the Impulse 500 after carefully studying the reviews of equipment by more established DJ brands such as Pioneer and Numark. I'm using it with Djuced software and it is brilliant. All the controls are tight, responsive and feel very premium indeed. I also tried it with Serato Pro but my pc doesn't meet the requirements so I cannot leave a fair review of that, but to be honest Djuced is perfect for my needs. Highly recommended!

This arrived last week. I really wasn't sure what to expect from this unit but I needn't of worried. What a great little controller this really is. 1st the pro's. The unit looks stunning. Black metal finish to the top with flush plastic fittings to finish off around the illuminations on the deckplate. The encoders feel really sturdy & like they will last as does everything else. The RGB pads are awesome and with a nice rubber feel to them. Love the loop features & the vinyl, slip & quantise functions for a controller of this price really great to see on this unit. Looping is so simple with the encoder & the in/out buttons. The sampler comes with some great samples straight out the box. The slicer mode works well. Like that you have at least 2 ways to apply loops. Hot cues work well. The assistant works well in DJuced and will select similar tunes to aid you. Yet to try Serato but DJuced works just great. The microphone input with EQ's is superb I love this feature. The fact you have an Aux Input for devices with a 3mm jack socket is awesome, what other unit at this price range does that? Now the bits that I wasn't sure about. The beat match on a 4 x 4 tune works lovely but on anything else it's better to just beat match by ear but then I guess that's what we should be doing anyway? Might confuse a newbie to start off with a bit? You can turn this feature on or off and for me I didn't find it particularly helpful. 2 little gripes I had were the pitch fader and the crossfader could do with slightly more resistance if i'm being picky. The unbalanced outputs mean you have to balance your gains for the level of tune you are playing would of liked those to be balanced really. Would I buy it again? Without hesitation yes definitely. Great controller, great price. It will grow with me as I develop and should last me a good few years I hope. DJ Kit were very good as the shipment was held up but when the items I ordered turned up they were quick & well packaged. Will definitely use again without hesitation. Thank you DJ Kit 5 stars.

This piece of kit is amazing! As soon as it arrived I unpacked it and was amazed how well built it is looking mean in my dj area! I mainly sit when mixing so the feet help get the right angle, I put the feet down on the back and front ones tucked in so I get a nice angle. Its so easy to use and for some reason in that two hour mess about it felt effortless. All the buttons feel great the knobs great! I've yet to use it to its full capability but I know its going to be something I'll have for a very long time! Not just any "beginner" controller!!!
