According to our DJ controller expert
The Denon MC4000 is a controller with buttons and faders. Since the controller has a built-in sound card, you won't need an external audio interface. You can connect external devices, such as a CD or record player to the controller, so you can also mix from your laptop. If you're planning on using a microphone during mixing, this controller is a good choice for you. The controller has 2 microphone inputs and a 2 band equalizer with effects. This allows you to control the microphone separately from the mixing channels.
System requirements for DJ software: Mac OS X 10.9 or higher/Windows 8 or higher.

I had been looking for a decent DJ controller for a while that would work in multiple programs, so that I wouldn't be dependent on a particular manufacturer.
I was also looking for a sturdy professional controller with a, of course, good price tag. I ended up with this Denon DJ MC4000 controller.
By luck I again came across a second chance here at Coolblue for a favorable price, and love at second sight certainly worked. The spark is immediately skipped!
The controller comes with Serato Intro (a stripped down version of Serato DJ) with a 50% discount code. So you can purchase Serato for only a few tens, this is a one-off, you can also use the software with other controllers in the future. Another buyer wrote here that this is a "lot of money", but a few tens for a lifetime license is nothing, is it? However, I also tested it via Virtual DJ and Traktor, both programs are also plug n play (for Traktor you can download the tsi folder in your Denon account), VDJ 8 recognized the controller immediately. Do you prefer to work with Virtual DJ or Traktor? No problem. I myself have opted for the full version of Serato DJ.
The controller has many functions available. 4 drum/sampler pads in the middle. 4 hot cue buttons per side. Of course, this controller has a "gain" control, a must have for the serious DJ. That is why many cheaper variants immediately fell out for me. Furthermore, a microphone can be connected to it and you can add effects to it, and you have many other functions available. The controller has a built-in audio interface, so you no longer need a separate sound card. You can also add an external source as backup, such as a CD player or mobile phone.
The Denon MC4000 exudes class and quality. This is not a plastic beginners panel like the Pioneer SB2 and Numark Mix Track, but a solid metal cabinet without fancy lights and unnecessary additions, made for what you are supposed to do with it and the serious DJ. Due to the metal cabinet, it is also ideal to take with you "on tour", you don't have to worry that it will be broken after a gig.
This device is definitely worth 5 stars. Not a full Serato DJ version is a shame, but you shouldn't expect that for this price. you still get a 50 percent discount, and it's worth it!

Not used much yet but I can already say that the finish is fantastic and it works very well. It's just a bit harder and more complicated than my previous DJ controller (Hercules RMX 2).
