Features
This unit is a 4-channel mixer optimally designed for DJ performances using the
“Serato DJ” DJ software by Serato. It is equipped with an internal sound card that is
compatible with Serato DJ, so performances using Serato DJ can be held immedi-
ately after connecting this unit with a computer using a USB cable, with no need to
make any troublesome settings.
Furthermore, Serato DJ’s scratch function can be controlled using the included
CONTROL VINYL (record) or CONTROL CD.
In addition, this unit carries over the main functions, quality and performance of the
Pioneer DJM-900nexus, a standard model in clubs throughout the world, offering
powerful support for performances by all professional DJs active in the club scene.
PLUG AND PLAY
This unit is equipped with a built-in USB sound card for connecting a computer. A
computer can be connected simply using a single USB cable; there is no need to
procure a separate sound card in addition to this unit.
Also, when Serato DJ is launched, this unit is automatically selected as the sound
device, so DJ performances using Serato DJ can be held immediately, with no need
to make any troublesome settings.
Furthermore, Serato DJ’s scratch function can be controlled using the included
CONTROL VINYL (record) or CONTROL CD.
HIGH SOUND QUALITY
This unit uses a 32-bit D/A converter and other parts that are equivalent to those
of high grade audio equipment, greatly improving the sound quality of not only the
master output but also the headphones and booth output. The use of a 32-bit digital
signal processor suppresses digital noise. Furthermore, for the analog circuitry as
well, a high sound quality balanced hybrid operational amplifier and a fully balanced
output circuitry are used to reduce noise.
SOUND COLOR FX&BEAT FX
This unit is equipped with the SOUND COLOR FX and BEAT FX functions that have
been well received on the DJM series. With SOUND COLOR FX, the effects you
are aiming to create can be applied simply by turning the knob, letting you make
original arrangements of tracks and enabling a wide variety of remixing possibili-
ties. Also, the BPM and beat position information of the track currently playing with
Serato DJ can be obtained via USB, so BEAT EFFECT can be applied on beat thanks
to the highly precise BPM information. Also, by using the quantize mode, the effect
timing is automatically corrected even if the BEAT EFFECT operation is performed
off timing, so effects can be applied in beat.
DURABLE FADER
The crossfader and channel faders use a sliding structure in which the fader knobs
are supported by two metal shafts. This provides both smooth operation with no
wobbling and high durability. It also keeps any adverse effects from liquids or dust
getting into the faders to a minimum. For scratch play compatibility, the crossfader
uses a uniquely developed magnetic system that provides a high durability of over 10
million operations with subtle operability. The channel faders provide approximately
three times greater operation durability as compared to a previous Pioneer model
(DJM-800).
STANDARD LAYOUT
This unit carries over the control panel layout of the Pioneer DJM series, the world
standard in DJ mixers.
The simple, straightforward control panel layout not only facilitates DJ performances
but lets even DJs using this unit for the first time to operate it without hesitation, so
it can be used without worry as a mixer that is permanently installed in the club.
