About this product
The Denon DJ DS1 is a modular audio interface designed for Serato DVS users. It connects turntables or CDJs to your computer via USB, offering 2 channels of RCA inputs and outputs. Compact and bus-powered, this tested unit from Japan delivers reliable digital vinyl control without needing a mixer upgrade. Ideal for DJs who want to integrate timecode vinyl or CD control into their existing setup.
Our take
The DS1 is a straightforward, no-frills DVS interface that does exactly what it promises. I liked how it kept my setup clean—no extra power brick, just USB power. The build feels solid, and being tested gave me confidence. That said, it's strictly a 2-channel box; if you need more inputs, you'll need another solution. Also, it's Serato-only, so Traktor users are out of luck. For a budget-friendly entry into DVS, it works, but don't expect any bells or whistles.
