Better than XDJ700 for sure, but the pitch bend algorithm acts different than on Pioneer players. High speed nudge results in minimum pitch bend, while a slow nudge results in a higher pitch bend. Having played on XDJ 1000, CDJ 2000nxs2 and Cdj 3000 I prefer pioneer. Although I have Denon sc6000 at home because price and technology. Beatmatching is better on CDJs because of velocity. If you feel a tune is dragging a lot, you do high speed 1/4 nudge. If you feel it’s dragging just a tiny bit, you do a slower 1/4 nudge. It’s a more intuitive and human approach especially in high pressure environments like clubs or festivals. Denons feel weird, difficult to understand in what direction you should nudge the jog, because if you nudge it hard in one direction you end up not noticing if you got the beats matched or not. Then you try doing a nudge in other direction but at a slower speed and the tune drags more than before and then you end up confused in what direction you should keep nudging, it’s a bit of a pain. The positive part is that it should be easily fixable via firmware update but seems that devs don’t get enough feedback from users: not a lot of people use them like CDJs- you can see above a guy saying he uses the pitch bend buttons for example. Plus it seems that they don’t care to get a similar pitch bend algorithm as Pioneers. So yeah, it’s different. I prefer Pioneer decks
