FEATURES
This unit is a multi entertainment player designed with a wide array of performance functions for parties and events, together with superb
operation characteristics, making it ideal for professional mobile DJ use. Allowing both normal type and manipulator type playing, it
represents optimal support for the next generation of DJ performance.
With the normal playing style, DJ play can be performed not only with conventional music CDs (CD-DA), but also with music files (MP3,
AAC, etc.) recorded on USB storage devices such as USB memory and external hard disc drives (HDD), together with CD-ROM and DVDROM.
Also, by connecting this player to a computer equipped with the accessory DJS software, this player can be designated by DJS as an audio
output device, making possible seamless DJ play using not only music contained on USB storage devices and disc media, but also music
tracks stored within the computer.
The player also features excellent media-support characteristics, making it unnecessary to worry about specific media types, and is
provided with a high-function GUI in its center display; together, these features facilitate searching for and selecting desired tracks from
large music libraries, and eliminate the need to use the mixer to manually switch between different sources.
On the other hand, the control unit continues the tradition of Pioneer’s CDJ series of players in its panel layout, functions and operations;
by connecting the control unit to your computer (USB bus power), music contained in the accessory DJS software can be played using
genuine DJ “manipulator style,” without the need for mouse or keyboard operations.

FEATURES
DIVERSE MEDIA PLAYBACK SUPPORT
Supports playback of CD-R/-RW discs formatted for music CD (CDDA) or CD graphics (CD-G), as well as compressed music files
(MP3/AAC) recorded on CD-R/-RW, DVD-R/-RW, DVD+R/+RW, or
DVD±R dual layer discs (some discs may not play properly due to
unique characteristics of the individual disc, recording
characteristics, and disc conditions such as scratches and
soiling). Playback is also supported for compressed music files
(MP3/AAC/WAV/AIFF) stored on USB storage devices.
DJ SOFTWARE
Sources potentially available on the BROWSE screen include
DJ software, including both the accessory DJS program and
other DJ software, even without the need for a control disc. The
use of MIDI DJ software is also supported. Further, by
designating the MEP-7000 as an audio output device, it can be
also used for audio output, thus eliminating the necessity of
using the mixer to switch between music sources.
MEMO
• Most of the data regarding button and TEMPO adjust slider
operations on this player can be output to external devices
using USB MIDI or dedicated formats. In order to use this unit
to control DJ software, it is necessary to install a driver
program.
• A dedicated ASIO driver is also available for audio output.
• It may not be possible to designate this player as an audio
output device, depending on the type of DJ software used.
• When the control unit is used alone, this player cannot be
designated as an audio output device. DJ software only can be
operated.

full-segment OEL displays with high response and terrific visibility.
In concert with the center display, these displays and indicators
encourage no-stress DJ play in a wide variety of lighting
environments.
PLAYLIST
Desired tracks can be selected from music libraries in USB
storage devices and disc media and recorded on a “playlist,” thus
allowing track selection for DJ play without the need to search for
the tracks.
SCRATCH EFFECT
Equipped with scratch effects for diverse scratch sound
performance
Equipped with three differing scratch sounds, including
[SCRATCH], [TRANS], and [BUBBLE]. These new scratch sound
performances broaden your DJ play potential.
LIBRARY BROWSE
By making a library of large numbers of tracks recorded on USB
storage devices, tracks can be classified into categories by album,
artist, and genre, facilitating smooth track selection. For even
simpler, more convenient library authoring, library authoring
software can be downloaded from the following website:
http://www.prodjnet.com/support/
MONITOR OUT
By outputting the center display’s BROWSE screen to a larger
external monitor, operations can be performed with greater ease.
Also outputs CD-G karaoke video.
KEYBOARD SUPPORT
By connecting a keyboard via USB port, you can input the initial
(leading) characters of tracks and folders and jump to that point
for speedy track selection; a keyboard also makes it possible to edit
playlist names.

differs from the track’s frame, allowing the player to start instantly
at a press of the play/pause ( ) button.
CUE POINT SAMPLER
The sound from the memorized cue point can be reproduced by
one touch, which can be used as the start point check and the
sampler.
REAL TIME SEAMLESS LOOP

lets you set a loop while you are playing a track. A loop can also be
set at the end of the track so that the track does not stop. In
addition, an ADJUST mode has been added to enable one-touch
adjustment to the Loop-out point and facilitate loop operation.
RELOOP
Allows you to replay a loop any number of times.
Press the RELOOP/EXIT button after releasing loop play to return
to the loop start point. Clever use of on and off in combination with
the rhythm make it possible to create new sound effects.
PLAYING ADDRESS
This bar graph provides a visual representation of track playback
progress that enables you to see current playback position just like
you can on an analog record by checking needle position. The
length of the bar shows current position and a flashing bar
provides advance notice of track end.
SLOT IN
Discs are loaded directly without opening doors or trays, making
track selection that much faster.
FADER START
When connected to a Pioneer DJ Mixer, the mixer's fader control
can be used to perform quick start and back cue operations.
CD TEXT
When a music CD (CD-DA) is played that supports CD-TEXT, the
