Pioneer DDJ-FLX4 vs. DDJ-REV1: Which DJ Controller Makes More Sense?

These two budget DJ controllers from Pioneer DJ have very similar price points and features, but they have slightly different approaches to DJing. The DDJ-REV1 is a 2-channel Serato controller with paddle-FX and a "battle style" layout, intended to cater to DJs interested in scratching either now or in the future. The DDJ-FLX4 is a 2-channel Rekordbox/Serato/mobile hybrid controller with a club/festival style layout, with more focus on looping and traditional assignable FX.
