About the XDJ-1000 jog wheel…

As far as the jog wheel goes, it’s typical mid-range Pioneer. It lacks tension control, but does have a touch release control to adjust from instant release to a few seconds before getting up to full speed.

Feel wise, it’s CDJ rather than DDJ — a little rattly and having a pressure rather than touch sensitive top. And while I can complain about, it does work much better than the DDJs, which considering the price and pedigree are still a little lacking.
