This scratch-style, two-channel DJ mixer from Pioneer DJ for Serato DJ Pro is ideal if you’ve experimented with battle mixing and scratching, and want to expand your skills, or if you’re completely new to the scene and want to dive straight in. If you’ve watched pro battle DJs perform on mixers such as the DJM-S11, the layout of the DJM-S5 will feel familiar.

This unit offers a balance of straightforward operation and exciting performance features to spice up your mixes right away. The popular Magvel Fader Pro feels great to scratch with, and you can find your perfect "weighting" with the Feeling Adjust. It’s also highly robust and built to withstand constant use as you perfect your techniques.

Plus, the large effect levers on the DJM-S5 are the same size as those on the flagship DJM-S11, allowing you to control up to 57 different effects in Serato DJ Pro (including paid Expansion Packs). Save your favorites in the two banks, and access them instantly during your routine. With four Performance Pads on each channel, you can control pad modes including Hot Cue, Sampler and Scratch Bank—where you can quickly play samples, or even whole tracks, with a single tap.
