About this product
The Novation Dicer is a compact, USB-powered DJ controller designed for cue point and looping control. It features 8 pads across 2 decks, with a modular form factor that integrates seamlessly with DJ software. Despite its small size, it offers 2 channels and includes a mic input and loop/sampler effects. Ideal for DJs needing portable, hands-on control without a full mixer.
Our take
I've been using the Novation Dicer for quick gigs where I don't want to haul a full setup. It's incredibly portable and USB powered, so no brick to carry. The 8 pads are responsive for cue points and loops, and the build feels solid for its size. That said, it's only 2 decks and no mixer section — you're tethered to software. The single mic input is a bonus but not a full replacement for a mixer. For $80, it's a niche tool, not an all-in-one solution.
