Pioneer DDJ-REV1 Scratch Starter Set – Learn on a Battle Layout

If scratching is the goal, start on the layout scratch DJs use. The DDJ-REV1 puts pitch faders horizontal and the mixer in the middle, like two turntables and a battle mixer. Add headphones with a long coiled cable and monitors with real bass and the set is ready for practice.

In This Setup

• Pioneer DDJ-REV1 – battle-style 2-channel Serato controller with large jog wheels, horizontal pitch faders, Tracking Scratch and lever FX; Serato DJ Lite licence card included.
• AIAIAI TMA-2 DJ V2 - modular on-ear DJ headphones with S02 MKII 40 mm drivers and a coiled cable that stretches from 1.5 to 3.2 m.
• Mackie CR5BT (pair) - 5-inch Creative Reference monitors with silk-dome tweeters, Bluetooth streaming and Desktop/Bookshelf voicing, 50 W per speaker.

Why This Combination

• Skills transfer: the REV1 layout matches a turntable-and-mixer setup, so the moves carry over.
• Coiled cable: room to move while you cut.
• Hear the scratch: 5-inch woofers reproduce the low end of a baby scratch properly.

Set price includes all three products; RCA cables are sold separately.
