MWM PHASE Essential Review & Demo

Buy It Now: www.amazon.com/MWM-PHASE-Esse...
Our Phase review is finally here! We've tested this device for over two months to make sure to give you a full and in-depth review of the latest Phase software and hardware.
Phase is the first wireless DJ controller that lets you control tracks playing from a DJ software without needing turntable needles or timecode control vinyl. Two Remotes capture the turntable rotation data and wirelessly transmit it to a Receiver that processes and sends it to your DVS setup.

    Love mine, and really can't wait for the Serato integration update. $400.00 is really not that bad, no more needle replacement, no more vibration issues and cheaper than a pair of Rane 12's!!!!!! Well worth the investment.

    Yes, but you need to unlock and pay for serato DJ first. So you need a device that actually allows you to use Serato with an older non-serato mixer like the Denon DS1 interface card. Then you can add Phase on top of that. Phase does not unlock serato. It's only an accessory that works with it.

    I believe you can set it to "lock" the zero in place, but there is always some super slight drift using turntables, but it shouldn't be noticed. Not sure if Phase will fix it or not.

    I’m having bpm issues. I’m running the phase with Technics SL-1200’s and Virtual dj. I have Serato pro but haven’t set it up and very familiar and comfortable with Virtual. The bpm fluctuating is a killer for a dj that’s actually mixing and blending songs. The bpm also never match the bpm that songs are Analyzed at. Any suggestions because as of now it’s a deal breaker for me. 😒

    It should definitely be playing at or around the BPM the songs are analyzed at when pitch is set to zero. I have never used Phase with anything other than Serato so I can't say for sure, but when using turntables, there is a bit of "drift" to the BPM naturally but it shouldn't sway more than .01 to .03 of a percentage... There is a feature to lock the BPM in the Phase setup software. If all else fails, try to reinstall the Phase software and make sure you have the latest firmware installed on the unit and the remotes.

    Yes I still use it and it still works great! Battery life is even longer than I expected. To be honest, I probably wouldn't buy this over using regular timecode vinyl and needles because its like an additional point of failure for gigs and it takes more cables to connect and you have to remember to have it charged... It's better if you can wait for a sale to find it at like $250 or so. Then its more worth it...
