Pioneer CDJ 1000

...it is a case of Pioneer can't make them quick enough. Once it arrived though it far surpassed my original idea of what it would be. Firstly, it was a lot bigger than I remembered when I first saw one. However, don't let that put you off, size is good, it means they can fit more stuff on it! The features on this are amazing. The jog wheel which allows you to scratch and mix CD's like vinyl is amazing, very intuitive and instant control which is ...
...listed touch/brake and release/start. These give the user the chance to control the way the jog wheel reacts to being used, it can slow down the 'catch-up' rate of the cd when it is released, giving the effect that the turntable is catching up on vinyl. The display shows several useful items, the obvious such as time display and a graph showing the prominent beats and a clever tempo meter which gives a BPM for the current track. By using the tempo ...

Review of Pioneer CDJ 1000

...even in the dark, and Pioneer have made more effort to better the information display - its brightness and clarity are a major improvement on the MK2. Cons All in all, there are no cons in my opinion - this piece of equipment is the very best any dj has at his fingertips. Being critical, I would say that its price (£700) is expensive to beginners and intermediate dj's on a budget, but if you have the money to burn, this is a piece that you MUST ...
...in all, I love this Pioneer CDJ-1000MK3. I am currently saving for one, and to anybody doing the same, I would like to stress that it will be the best purchase you ever make within the dj world. If you have not tried one yet, and think that the price is too steep for what it does, go to any decent dj equipment store and ask for a demo - you will love them! If it is still over your budget, definately look into the CMX-3000, also by Pioneer. ...

Review of Pioneer CDJ 1000

The pioneer CDJ-1000 is in a different league to any CD decks that have come before it. Vinyl Emulation is the key, for the first time you actually feel as though you are manually manipulating the CD. This gives you the opportunity, with a bit of practice of course to add a new dimension to your Mixes. Even scratching is possible with this beast. Measuring 12.5 inches by 14.5 inches by 4.2 inches, the turntable is much larger than its famous predecessor, ...
...youve bought a proper, durable piece of kit. The first thing you notice, and the most important innovation on the CDJ-1000 is its large 206-mm platter. Made to look like a 45, complete with grooves, this touch-sensitive jog wheel allows the user to "handle" a CD. You can spin it back, find your cue point with high accuracy, and scratch without worrying about the needle jumping. Pressing the start/stop button will power up or down the CD as if it ...

Review of Pioneer CDJ 1000

Pioneer have released the 3rd version of the internationally acclaimed CDJ1000 with tweaks and improvements at every turn. The latest model includes MP3 playback in addition to the host of features available to the digital jockey. Expect seamless looping, programmable cue points accessable from 3 illuminated pads and saveable to SD memory cards; wave viewer, +/- 100% pitch control and more. The "master tempo" function allows tracks to be slowed ...
...is available to change the speed at which plackback starts or stops allowing the classic wind-down effect and a reverse switch gives instant control over direction of play. The scratchability of the stationary platter gives a supremely realistic vinyl sound and the central LED display helps do away with those bits of tape and tipex stuck to yer vinyl. The MK3 version sees the main LED display raised upwards for ease of viewing but apart from the ...

Review of Pioneer CDJ 1000

These DJ decks are in my opinion the greastest the most robust DJ decks in the world. If you know how to DJ you can use these. They have so many features and buttons your mixes will never be off time, my experience with these decks are fanstastic. the best thing i like about these DJ decks are that you can either use them as CD decks so you use the wheel as a search wheel or you can press the vinyl button and then use them as vinyl and use the wheel ...
