FX SEND (L/R) & FX RETURN (L/R) SOCKETS

The DJ’ing experience can be enhanced by using a special effects (FX) processor which will allow 

sound shaping tools to be added to the music content.
To send the output signal to an effects unit, use left and right phono leads, and connect to the FX 

send sockets on the side panel of the CDJ-1. By plugging this lead into the CDJ-1, this will interrupt 

the signal path to allow the effect to be inserted. It is necessary to bring the processed signal back 

into the CDJ-1, this can be done by using another set of phono leads to connect to the output of the 

effects unit to the FX return sockets on the CDJ-1. It may be necessary to alter, or set the working 

levels on the effects processor to allow similar output levels to be maintained. This will be detailed in 

the instruction manual which accompanies the effect processor. 

AMP OUTPUT SOCKETS

The speakers fitted inside the CDJ-1 are limited in their size and power handling, and will give a limit 

to the sound levels achievable from the CDJ-1. In order to allow higher volumes to be produced, the 

CDJ-1 is fitted with external amp sockets to allow a bigger amp and speakers to be used. Connect 

left and right phono leads to the amp output sockets on the side panel of the CDJ-1, and connect the 

other end to a corresponding line input on an external amplifier. (you may use an AUX socket or tape 

socket if fitted). The output signal level of these sockets is 775mV 

@ 0db, this should allow connection to most audio amplifiers. The internal loudspeakers fitted to the 

CDJ-1 will be disconnected when an external amplifier is connected. 

HEADPHONE SOCKET

It is possible to use headphones with the 

CDJ-1 which will allow PFL (Pre fade listen) 

monitoring of music channels before mixing. 

Using headphones fitted with a 6.25mm (1/4 

inch) stereo jack plug, insert this into the 

headphone socket on the side panel of the 

CDJ-1. Use the headphone volume control 

and the headphone selector switch (see page 

8, numbers 25 & 26) to alter these settings.

MIC INPUT SOCKET

It is possible to connect a microphone 

to the CDJ-1 to enhance your DJ 

performance. Plug a mic, preferably 

with an impedance of 600ohms, and 

fitted with a 6.25mm (1/4 inch) jack, 

into the mic input socket (page 5, 

number 6). The sound level of the mic 

can be altered by using the mic level 

control (page 8, number 24). Set the 

mic level to a reasonable level, trying 

to avoid feedback and distortion.
