Hercules INPULSE 300 MK2 Vinyl Scratch Controller - DJ Controller

Hercules INPULSE 300 MK2 Vinyl Scratch Controller - DJ Controller arrives as a compact, performance-ready vinyl scratcher designed for DJs who want tactile control and smart features in one package.

The INPULSE 300 MK2 is built around two vinyl-style scratcher platters that deliver a natural scratching feel, combined with a full mixer section including a responsive crossfader and a three-band equalizer for precise tone shaping. With a robust USB-powered design and a slim footprint (480 × 286 × 52 mm), it fits easily into home setups and mobile rigs.

Performance pads are plentiful: 16 rubber drum pads with backlighting provide comfortable triggering and clear visual feedback for hot cues, loops, and samples. Controls include buttons, levers, and rotary encoders so you can tailor the controller’s behavior to your workflow and performance style.

Connectivity is straightforward and DJ-friendly: a single USB 2.0 port supplies power and data, a 3.5 mm headphone output offers cue monitoring, and the unit supports Windows 10/11 and macOS. The package includes the USB cable, and the USB-powered operation removes the need for an external power adapter.

Audio performance is optimized for live use with very low THD+N (0.01%) and a clean headphone output (THD+N 0.017%). The SNR values are listed at 5 dB; combined with the controller’s 44 kHz sample rate, this yields stable, reliable playback suitable for practice and gigging.

Suggested use cases include bedroom practice sessions, mobile DJ sets at small venues, scratch battles, and scratch-based live performances where tactile vinyl control is essential. The lightweight 1.8 kg construction makes transport easy for DJs on the move.

Key selling points are the dual vinyl scratcher platters, 16 rubber backlit pads, integrated mixer with crossfader and 3-band EQ, USB direct playback and automatic beat matching to simplify live mixing. Its compatibility with modern Windows and macOS systems and minimal RAM/display requirements (4 GB RAM and 1280×720 resolution) make setup and integration simple.

Whether you’re learning to scratch, building a portable DJ rig, or adding tactile control to your digital setup, the Hercules INPULSE 300 MK2 offers a balance of classic vinyl feel and contemporary digital features in a compact, stylish black-and-red design.
