High sound quality design
Analog signals are transmitted via the shortest path and converted
to digital signals by a 96 kHz sampling, 24 bit, high-quality A/D
converter, thus passing the signals to the digital mixing stage
under optimum conditions.
Through the use of a 32 bit DSP, mixing is achieved with zero
sound quality degradation, and together with simultaneous ideal
filtering, optimum sound is produced for professional DJs
working in clubs.
To get the most from these features, a great deal of care has been
paid to perfecting the sound quality, including a high-rigidity
chassis to cut down unnecessary vibrations that might affect the
sound, together with a high-performance power section using an
R-core transformer that supports bass quality, thus creating clear
and powerful sound ideal for club performances.

3 band isolator
Built-in 3-band isolator capable of producing level c6 dB
to –
∞
on each bandwidth.
The sharp operation feel allows the realization of a wide variety of
DJ performances.
3
2-system, 3-type SEND/RETURN
A 2-system, 3-type SEND/RETURN (PRE INSERT/POST INSERT/
AUX) is provided to allow multiple connection variations with
other external devices, such as effectors and samplers, thus
widening the range of DJ play potential.
4
Fader curve adjust
The fader curve adjust allows adjustment not only the cross fader
curve (as on former models), but also of channel fader curve.
Both faders’ functions can be adjusted within 17 steps, so that DJs
can customize the settings to their own preferred settings.
5
Digital IN/OUT
Using digital input connectors provided for each of the sampling
rates (44.1/48/96 kHz), a system can be built in which no sound
quality degradation occurs when connecting to external digital
devices.
A DIGITAL OUT connector with 24 bit/96 kHz sampling rate is
provided, facilitating recording at studios and other situations
demanding high sound quality.
Supports only linear PCM.
6
MIDI OUT
MIDI signals can be output to allow MIDI control of external
devices.
7
Digital link function
Multiple functions can be performed by using digital link cables to
connect other PIONEER DJ CD players, DJ effectors and AV
mixers.

Other features
÷
By using a control cable to connect the unit to a PIONEER DJ-
use CD player, playback can be started on the CD player in
automatic linkage to operation of the fader (“fader start play”).
÷
Built-in “3-band equalizer” enabling level control within range
+6 dB to –26 dB at each bandwidth.
÷
Features “2-band booth EQ” for control of booth monitor
response, thus facilitating booth monitoring by the DJ.
÷
Built-in “cross fader assign” function, enabling more flexible
assigning of each channel’s input to the cross fader.
÷
Built-in “TALK OVER function” automatically lowers track
volume during MIC-input.
