Hercules DJ DJControl T10 DJ Controller

Motorized DJ Controller with Real Vinyl Platters

The Hercules DJControl T10 is a motorized DJ controller for scratch and battle DJs who want the physical feel of a turntable without giving up a modern workflow. Two full-size 10" vinyl discs sit on servo-controlled belt-drive platters, so every cue, backspin and juggle lands on actual vinyl. A contactless InduXfader, Stems buttons and a battle-style mixer layout complete the package. The T10 ships with Serato DJ Pro and DJUCED PRO licenses.

What Sets This Controller Apart

Two technologies make this unit unusual. The InduXfader is Hercules' first in-house contactless crossfader, built with electromagnetic induction and approved by Innofader — the shuttle never touches the sensor, so there is zero mechanical wear, no rattling and a lighter touch tunable from the front panel. The platters use a brushless belt-drive motor with a real-time sensor and microcontroller that corrects rotation in under 100 ms at 0.16 N·m of starting torque.

Platters and Motor System — Turntable Feel in a Controller

Each platter is a metal disc topped with a real 10" vinyl record, Dr. Suzuki felt slipmat and slipsheet.

• Platter Size: 254 mm (10") metal disc with real vinyl top — more surface area than 7" controllers for grabs and scratches.
• Drive System: Brushless belt-drive motor with real-time rotation sensor and microcontroller correction — platter stays locked to the track during aggressive scratch moves.
• Starting Torque: 0.16 N·m with full playback speed in under 100 ms — fast enough for transformer scratches and chirps.
• Two Dr. Suzuki felt slipmats and slipsheets ship in the box.

Mixer, Crossfader and Performance Controls — Built for Battles

The mixer section is laid out like a dedicated battle mixer, with generous space around the crossfader.

• Crossfader: InduXfader contactless electromagnetic induction fader, Innofader-approved — adjustable weight, curve, cut-lag and reverse from the front panel.
• EQ per Deck: 3-band (Low, Mid, High) plus a dedicated Filter knob — standard club-style tone shaping.
• Channel FX: Filter, Reverb, Dub Echo and Noise triggered by FX paddles for instant on/off during routines.
• Performance Pads: 16 RGB pads (8 per deck), 8 modes including Hot Cue, Loop, Stems and Sampler — tactile triggering for cues, loops and samples.
• Stems Buttons: dedicated Vocal and Instrument per deck — isolate or mute elements live without leaving the hardware.

Connectivity, Audio and Form Factor — Club-Ready I/O

Pro-level outputs, dual-computer support and a transportable chassis make this controller practical for working DJs who move between home, studio and venue.

• Master Outputs: 2 x balanced XLR (+28 dBu) + 2 x RCA (+7 dBu) — connects straight into a club PA without signal loss.
• Booth Output: 2 x balanced 1/4" / 6.3 mm jacks (+28 dBu) — dedicated balanced feed for the DJ booth monitor.
• Headphone Outputs: 1/4" / 6.3 mm + 1/8" / 3.5 mm stereo jacks — works with any DJ headphone.
• Microphone Input: Balanced XLR / 1/4" combo, 0–60 dB gain, tone control — handles MC duties and announcements cleanly.
• Computer Ports: 2 x USB-C — supports two laptops at once for clean back-to-back changeovers.
• Dimensions: 950 x 353 x 95 mm at 7.3 kg with retractable feet for transport.

Who This Controller Is Built For

The T10 is the right choice for scratch, hip-hop and open-format DJs who want the largest motorized platters in a modern controller. Battle DJs coming from Technics direct-drive turntables will appreciate the 10" vinyl surface, the adjustable InduXfader and the Slip mode that keeps the underlying track moving underneath a scratch routine. Back-to-back tag-team DJs benefit from dual USB-C ports that let two laptops stay connected for clean handoffs mid-set. Club and bar residents get balanced XLR master and booth outputs that speak directly to a professional PA, while bedroom and home-studio producers gain a transportable 7.3 kg chassis that sets up in minutes.

Hercules DJ and the InduXfader Development

Hercules DJ has long built accessible DJ hardware for beginners and working performers, and this controller represents a step into the flagship motorized-controller segment. The InduXfader is Hercules' first in-house contactless crossfader, approved by Innofader for scratch performance. Pairing that crossfader with full-size 10" vinyl-topped platters, dual USB-C, Stems buttons and bundled Serato DJ Pro plus DJUCED PRO licenses positions the T10 as a serious contender for scratch and battle DJs.
