DJ controller with 5.5" jog wheels

The Hercules DJControl Inpulse 500 is a two-deck USB DJ controller with a built-in audio interface and hardware input mixer. It includes DJUCED and Serato DJ Lite software for mixing and scratching. Sixteen backlit RGB pads provide vinyl functions and loop controls. Retractable feet raise the unit away from spills.

Connectivity and software check

Verify that your computer has a free USB port for the plug-and-play connection. Ensure your operating system supports the included DJUCED or Serato DJ Lite applications. The controller offers dual 1/4" and dual RCA master outputs, plus 1/4" and 3.5 mm headphone outputs. Stereo TRS 3.5 mm and dual RCA aux inputs accept external sources. A balanced 1/4" microphone input with High/Low EQ works independently of the computer.

Passive cooling and bus power

The unit runs without fans, so operation is silent in normal use. Power is drawn over the USB connection, eliminating the need for an external power supply. The built-in Velvet Edge sound card handles audio processing without adding noticeable heat. Retractable feet improve airflow underneath the chassis during extended sessions.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the DJControl Inpulse 500 and what must I add?

The box includes the controller, DJUCED and Serato DJ Lite software licences, and a USB cable. You must supply a laptop, headphones, speakers or a PA system, and any external audio sources such as a phone or turntable.

How do I choose between the two software versions included?

Both DJUCED and Serato DJ Lite are provided. DJUCED offers built-in beatmatch guides on the 5.5" jog wheels; Serato DJ Lite uses the 16 RGB pads for cue-point colours. Try each to see which workflow you prefer.

What does the 5.5" jog wheel size mean for my mixing?

The 5.5" touch-reactive platters give a vinyl-like surface for scratching and the integrated beatmatch light guide helps you align tempos manually without staring at the screen.
