Features
This unit, while using the same operation panel layout as Pioneer’s professional DJ equipment, has a rounded, amiable form. It is designed to
allow a wide range of users – from those at the start of their DJing experience to those who have already begun DJ performances in their home
and elsewhere – to enjoy DJ performances in a variety of situations.
PULSE CONTROL
Thanks to the use of the newly developed “Pure Platter” jog dials with
four white LEDs and channel faders with built-in LEDs, the illumination
changes in conjunction with DJ operations, effects, etc., adding brilliance to DJ performances.
! Mix Pulse: The offset of the tempo on the two decks is expressed by
the white illumination of the jog dials. The white illumination is lit
brightly when the tempos on the two decks are synchronized, and
the more the tempos are apart, the dimmer the white illumination.
! Beat Pulse: The illumination of the channel faders flashes according
to the decks’ audio levels.
! Launch Pulse: The deck’s illumination changes when a track is
loaded.
! FX Pulse: The jog dial’s illumination changes in response to effect
operations.
