Our take
I've been using the Roland DJ-202 for a few weeks now, and I'm impressed with the drum machine integration. Having built-in drums on a controller this size is a game-changer for live remixing. The 4-deck layout in Serato works well, though the small jog wheels take some getting used to. The build feels solid enough for the price, but don't expect premium metal construction. The sequencer and sampler are intuitive, and the audio quality is clean. For $329.99, it's a solid starter or backup controller, but serious gigging DJs might want something sturdier.
