Introduction

The FMDJ9303 is a versatile new MIDI controller compatible with any
DJ software that accepts standard MIDI controls. You can now have
the tactile feel of using hardware, like a mixer, as well as the versatility
of software. Using a MIDI controller such as the FMDJ9303 allows you
as the DJ to be extremely mobile. Instead of dragging around two
turntables, a mixer and a record case, your entire DJ setup consists of
a laptop, soundcard and the FMDJ9303. This is a compact and light
combination that can fit in your backpack, yet has professional quality
features.

Features

No Drivers

There are no drivers to install. The FMDJ9303 conforms to the USB-MIDI
standards defined by the USB I.F. Microsoft Windows XP, and Mac OS X come
with drivers packaged in the operating system. This means all you have to do
to get started is just plug it into a free USB port on your computer.

There are Linux drivers available for USB-MIDI compliant devices such as the

9303. We have never verified that the FMDJ9303 will definitely work with Linux
but there is no reason it should not. The question is more regarding the driver
than the 9303.

USB Powered

The 9303 can be powered by the USB bus only, or through an external wall
transformer. The MIDI out jack is functional when the device is powered
through the USB port or the external wall transformer.

Panel Mount Jacks

Mounting the USB and MIDI jacks to the controller enclosure removes any
damaging force from the circuit board. This will ensure a greater life of the
USB, power, and MIDI jacks.

Firmware Upgradeable

The firmware of the 9303 can be upgraded with a convenient application. If
there are any bugs found, or new features to add to the functionality of the 9303
it can be done safely and easily. (No MAC firmware upgrade software currently
available)

Illuminated Buttons

You can be sure you will be able to see all the buttons on the 9303 when you
are in that dark DJ booth.

Rugged Steel Enclosure

We know how rough DJs and musicians can be with their equipment. That is
why the 9303 is built with a tough steel enclosure.

Compact

Including the knobs the 9303 is only 1 ¾” tall, making it easy to throw into your
backpack with your laptop.

Shift Function
The Send All button doubles as a shift button to send a secondary MIDI
assignment for each button, knob, fader and joystick.
