Features
This unit is an all-in-one DJ system combining a Pioneer DJ device with
high operability and an excellent reputation among professional DJs
with Serato DJ, a DJ software program by Serato. This unit is equipped
with an control interface optimized for operating Serato DJ. The interface
controls are positioned on a large body with room to spare, so the various functions of Serato DJ can be operated intuitively and accurately.
Furthermore, this unit has an internal sound card, so a computer can be
connected with a single USB cable.
“BIG JOG” & “ON JOG DISPLAY”
This unit is equipped with large jog dials for smooth operability, so users
can scratch with the feel of an analog player. There is also an on-jog
display at the center of the jog dial, indicating the track’s playing status
and the currently playing position. The jog dial can be operated with the
feel of watching the surface of an analog record.
“PERFORMANCE PADS”
This unit is equipped with large performance pads allowing the four
functions of Serato DJ (Hot Cue, Roll, Slicer and Sampler) to be operated
with dynamic actions (tapping, tapping repeatedly, etc.). The pads are in
rubber, so they can be operated without getting tired, even during long
performances. When using the Sampler mode, users can select one of
four velocity curves to achieve dynamically inflected performances.
“4-CHANNEL MIXER”
This unit is equipped with a 4-channel mixer for mixing the tracks played
on the four decks in Serato DJ independently. The four tracks can be
mixed simultaneously to achieve even more unique DJ mixes.
Flexible Connectivity
This unit is equipped with four sets of external inputs for connecting CD
players, analog turntables, etc. This unit’s 4-channel mixer can be operated on a stand-alone basis, so the externally input sound can be mixed
without passing through a computer. There are two microphone inputs.
For the outputs, this unit has two sets of master out terminals (one set
of XLR terminals and one set of RCA terminals), allowing connection of
professional PA equipment, and one set of booth out terminals. This unit
supports all types of party scenarios and DJ performance styles.
“LEVEL METER”
A master level meter is provided at the center of the mixer, with channel level meters positioned near the control interface for the respective
channels. This lets users see the levels of the respective channels as
they operate this unit, for more comfortable DJ performances.
“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.
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 has developed
with its professional series is used to achieve the industry’s highest level
of sound quality for a DJ controller.
Professional Build Quality & Design
Aluminum materials are used for the top panel and jog plate, making
for a design with a sense of solidity and high quality that adds class
to DJ performances in clubs or at home parties. Also, rubber is used
for the knobs and pads to achieve not only a sense class but also high
operability.
“Serato DJ” Supported
This unit supports the Serato DJ software, which offers a great number
of functions required for DJ performances. All of the buttons and controls on this unit are preset to associate them with the software, so DJ
performances can be held immediately, simply by connecting this unit to
a computer. Furthermore, the Dual Deck Control and Slip functions have
been developed in cooperation with Serato.
“DUAL DECK CONTROL”
The two tracks currently playing on the two decks can be operated
simultaneously with a single player interface. This enables performances
using such player functions as scratching and hot cueing with the two
tracks seemingly a single track.
“SLIP MODE”
This unit is equipped with a Slip Mode function by which the sound
continues in the background while such operations as looping, scratching and hot cueing are being performed. This allows DJ performances
without changing the original track’s development after such playback
operations as looping, scratching and hot cueing are completed.

Using the settings utility software
This function can only be used by those using a Windows operating
system.
Launching the settings utility software
Click the Windows [Start] menu>[All
Programs]>[Pioneer]>[DDJ_SX]>[DDJ_SX ASIO Settings
Utility].
Adjusting the buffer size
In the same way as the buffer size setting in the Serato DJ software,
decreasing the value of the [Kernel Buffers] setting lowers the transfer
delay (latency) of the audio data, while increasing the value reduces the
tendency for dropouts in the audio data (breaks in the sound).
The setting at [USB BUFFER SIZE (LATENCY)] in the Serato DJ software’s [SETUP] menu has priority for the buffer size. (The default setting
is 512 samples/10 ms.)
! For details on making the settings on the DJ software, see the Serato
DJ software manual.
! If the [Buffer Size] or [Kernel Buffers] number is made large, drops
in the data (breaks in the sound), etc., occur less easily, but the time
lag due to transmission delays in the audio data (latency) increases.
If breaks in the sound occur with the default
setting
! If you do not agree to the contents of the usage agreement, click
[Disagree] to cancel installation.
11 If the following screen appears, drag and drop the
[Serato DJ] icon on the [Applications] folder icon.
About the driver software and setting utility software
This unit functions as an audio device conforming to the ASIO
standards.
1 Launch [DDJ_SX ASIO Settings Utility] and change
[Kernel Buffers] to [4].
2 Set [USB BUFFER SIZE (LATENCY)] in the Serato DJ
software to the minimum buffer size at which no breaks
in the sound occur.
If no breaks in the sound occur with the default
setting
1 Set [USB BUFFER SIZE (LATENCY)] in the Serato DJ
software to the minimum buffer size at which no breaks
in the sound occur.
2 Launch [DDJ_SX ASIO Settings Utility], change [Kernel
Buffers] to [2], and check that no breaks in the sound
occur.
3 If no breaks in the sound occur, set [USB BUFFER SIZE
(LATENCY)] in the Serato DJ software to the minimum
buffer size at which no breaks in the sound occur. If
breaks in the sound do occur, change [Kernel Buffers] in
the [DDJ_SX ASIO Settings Utility] to [3].
