Real Vinyl Feel Is Back
The DJ controller market has never been more competitive. Yet for many DJs, one thing still matters more than anything else: feel.
That is exactly where the new DJControl T10 stands out. Hercules didn't simply create another DJ controller. The goal was to recreate the tactile experience and control of real turntables while keeping all the advantages of modern DJ software.
The motorized 10-inch platters, combined with the supplied vinyl records, slipmats and Dr. Suzuki slipsheets, deliver an impressively authentic experience.
The result comes remarkably close to traditional turntablism and provides a familiar feel whether you're mixing, scratching or performing live.
For DJs who have always wanted the convenience of digital DJing without sacrificing the sensation of vinyl, the DJControl T10 is a very compelling proposition.
Designed for DJs, Not for Marketing Departments
Behind the DJControl T10 lies a significant amount of engineering.
The motorized platters are powered by brushless motors. An intelligent control system continuously monitors rotation speed and automatically compensates for any fluctuation, ensuring consistent performance even during aggressive scratching sessions.
One of the most exciting innovations is the new InduXfader. Developed by Hercules and certified by Innofader, this contactless crossfader uses electromagnetic induction technology, virtually eliminating mechanical wear over time.
Users can also fine-tune several parameters directly from the controller:
- Cut lag
- Crossfader curve
- Fader resistance
- Reverse mode
For scratch DJs and performance-oriented artists, this level of customization can make a real difference during live performances.
Built for Clubs, Streaming and Modern Performance
The DJControl T10 goes far beyond authentic turntable feel.
It is packed with the features today's DJs expect from a professional performance controller.
Dedicated stems controls allow instant isolation of vocals and instrumentals. Effect paddles provide direct access to creative effects, while the RGB pads handle hot cues, loops, samples and much more.
One particularly useful feature is the dual USB-C connection. This allows two DJs to connect simultaneously, making B2B performances and seamless DJ transitions easier than ever.
Professional connectivity further reinforces the T10's ambitions:
- Balanced XLR master outputs
- Dedicated booth outputs
- Dual USB-C connections
- Serato DJ Pro included
- DJUCED PRO included
Whether you perform in clubs, stream online or create content, the T10 has been built with modern workflows in mind.
