## What reviewers say

Only one whitelisted tester, MusicRadar, published a hands-on review; no other whitelisted audio outlet covered this exact model. MusicRadar calls the FLX4 a strong contender for best beginner controller, praising plug-and-play setup, effective smart auto-mix/FX functions and Bluetooth plus USB mic routing, while flagging small jog wheels with no display, an over-simplified single-colour layout, and a small crossfader. (Based on 1 review, 2024-08-01.)

Praised: Plug-and-play setup with lots of accessible functionality; Smart mix and smart CFX auto functions work surprisingly well for beginners; Bluetooth connectivity plus mic routed over USB for livestreaming.
Flagged: Jog wheels are small and lack any visual display; Over-simplified single-colour layout makes filter vs bass EQ hard to distinguish; Crossfader is too small, making auto mixes easy to rush.
Disagreement: Single-source only (MusicRadar), so no cross-source disagreement could be assessed; no whitelisted tester provided lab-measured figures for this model.
