Features

This unit is an all-in-one DJ controller designed specifically for “rekordbox dj”. 
It’s interfaces incorporating various controls such as “BIG JOG”, “PERFORMANCE 
PADS” and 4-channel mixer are positioned with room to spare to allow for more indi-
vidualistic DJ performances using “rekordbox dj”. Also, the unit provides “SOUND 
COLOR FX” and “SEQUENCER” functions so that original arrangements can be 
added to the music being played back. Furthermore, numerous input and output 
terminals support a variety of DJ styles. Featuring aluminum material for the top 
panel, the design makes the unit look high quality, which is appropriate in a variety 
of scenes such as nightclubs, home parties, etc.

“BIG JOG” & “ON JOG DISPLAY”

We have achieved the shortest time required from when jog is operated until when 
the control signal is transferred to the software. Additionally, “BIG JOG”, a large 
sized jog, allows the DJ to play scratches as they wish with smooth operability. At 
the center of the jog, the “ON JOG DISPLAY” displays the playback status of music 
and the current playback position so that the DJ can perform scratching more 
accurately.

“MULTI-COLOR PERFORMANCE PADS”

“MULTI-COLOR PERFORMANCE PADS”, large rubber pads used to operate func-
tions such as HOT CUE, PAD FX, and SAMPLER, are positioned at the front of the 
unit.
Music can be arranged by dynamic actions such as beating and rolling and the 
volume of the sampler can be increased or decreased depending on the strength of 
the beat.
Also, each pad has built-in multi-color illumination so you can instantaneously 
understand the information required for your performance from the color and light-
ing state of the pad.

SEQUENCER

The “SEQUENCER” function that enables recording sampler operation patterns and 
playing back recorded sampler operation patterns can be intuitively operated from 
the included dedicated operation interface.
DJ performances full of originality are possible as the “SEQUENCER” function and 
dedicated operation interface can be used to easily create phrases using sounds 
loaded in the sampler.

4-CHANNEL MIXER

The unit includes “4-CHANNEL MIXER”, which allows the DJ to independently oper-
ate songs being played back with four decks. Four songs can be mixed to create a 
highly individualistic DJ mix.
Level meters are located near the master unit and the operation interface of each 
channel, so that input and output levels can be understood instantly.

SOUND COLOR FX

The unit is equipped with four “SOUND COLOR FX” functions (NOISE, CRUSH, 
PITCH, and FILTER) for achieving a wide range of musical arrangements.
By simply turning the control, it is possible to create the effect you want, and a vari-
ety of remix can be achieved such as adding original arrangements to the music.
Creative effect performances are also made possible by assigning your favorite 
SOUND COLOR FX included in “rekordbox dj”.

PLUG AND PLAY

The sound cards of the unit and all buttons and controls are set to be linked with 
“rekordbox dj” beforehand. The DJ can begin performances immediately using 
“rekordbox dj” without having to make troublesome settings.

FLEXIBLE CONNECTIVITY

Four external input systems and two MIC input systems are provided to connect to 
DJ players or analog turntables.
Mixing is possible without going through a computer, so the unit can be used as a 
single DJ mixer as well.
In addition, two MASTER OUT systems and one BOOTH OUT system are provided to 
handle professional PA device output.
All kinds of party scenes and DJ playing styles are supported.

HIGH SOUND QUALITY

The audio output circuitry uses a low-jitter clock and high performance DAC to 
reproduce the original sound faithfully and achieve clear club sound. In addition, the 
sound quality technology Pioneer DJ has developed with its professional series is 
used to achieve the industry’s highest level of sound quality for a DJ controller.

PROFESSIONAL QUALITY DESIGN

Aluminum material on the top panel and jog plate provides a sense of high quality 
design.
This unit is an essential part of DJ performance in clubs and home party scenes.

SLIP MODE

This unit is equipped with a SLIP MODE function to enable sound to continue in the 
background while operations such as looping, scratching, and hot cueing are being 
performed. This means operations such as looping, scratching, and hot cueing can 
be performed without changing the original track’s composition.

NEEDLE SEARCH

Points can be searched for simply by touching the touch pad with a finger. This 
makes for intuitive, speedy searching with the sense of touching the music directly.
