About this product
The Roland DJ-505 is a double deck DJ controller bundled with Serato DJ Pro and a carry bag kit. It features Roland's built-in drum effects, allowing you to add beats and rhythms directly from the controller. With two decks and quad deck capability, it offers flexibility for mixing. The included carry bag provides portability for gigs or practice sessions. This controller is designed for intermediate to advanced DJs looking to integrate drum machines into their sets.
Our take
The DJ-505 feels solid and the built-in drum effects are a creative boost. Serato DJ Pro runs smoothly, and the included carry bag is a nice bonus for transport. The jog wheels are responsive, but I wish the pitch faders were longer for finer adjustments. The TR-S drum sounds are fun, but they can be a bit limited without deeper editing. Overall, it's a capable controller for DJs who want to add live drum elements, though the price with the bag kit is reasonable for what you get.
