DJ’s CDJ series, the world standard for club players. Full-fledged DJ
performances can be made using tracks not only on USB devices and
computers but also on mobile devices (smartphones, etc.). It is not only
equipped with a wide range of features for DJ performances, including the PRO DJ LINK, quantize and beat sync functions, it also has a
high sound quality, high reliability design and a panel layout providing high operability, thereby offering strong support for all types of DJ
performances.
MULTI MEDIA, MULTI FORMAT
Music files stored on USB devices (flash memory devices or hard disks),
mobile devices, and computers can be played. The supported music file
formats are MP3, AAC, WAV, AIFF, FLAC, and Apple Lossless.
The rekordbox music management software can be used to carefully
prepare the playlists, cues, loops, beat grids, etc. you will need for a
DJ performance at home. You can easily devote your attention to the
DJ performance at the disco or club. This makes for a deejaying cycle
smoothly integrating all the steps, from acquiring the music files to the
actual DJ performance.

rekordbox is a composite software that enables track management and
DJ performances.
Music files on computers can be managed (analysis, setting, creation,
history storage) with the music management software rekordbox (Mac/

TOUCH DISPLAY
This unit is equipped with a large, high-resolution full-color LCD so that
the information required for DJ performances is easily visible. This unit
not only displays the information required for DJ performances conveniently, but also helps you achieve reliable and aggressive DJ performances through its wide variety of functions including AUTO BEAT
LOOP or HOT CUE and BEAT JUMP/LOOP MOVE.
BROWSE
The combination of the list display of music files and an easy-to-operate
rotary selector lets you select tracks without stress. In addition, the
display of track artwork lets you find the desired tracks instinctively.
KEYWORD SEARCH
A keyboard is displayed on the touch display so that you can type the
keywords and search them. It is possible to search the target music files
much faster in this manner.
TRACK FILTER
Tracks can be searched for by the tag information added to tracks using
rekordbox or the information such as BPM and KEY. You can quickly find
the tracks that match the specified condition.
WAVE/WAVE ZOOM
The overall waveform (“WAVE”) can be displayed so that you can grasp
the overall composition of the track visually. Also, the frequency bands
are color-coded, and a zoomable enlarged waveform (“WAVE ZOOM”)
can be displayed so that the development of the track can be grasped
instantaneously.
NEEDLE SEARCH
Just touch the overall waveform (WAVE) with your finger to instantly play
the tune next to the touched one. A quick point search can be done by
instinctive operation.
! Use the rekordbox data for the performance.
! Share the rekordbox data using the PRO DJ LINK function.
Check and manage the playback history with rekordbox.
BEAT JUMP/LOOP MOVE
You can move the playing position with the specified beat count
instantly. A wide range of beats can be improvised without changing the
music rhythm.
HOT CUE
This unit has a hot cue that can instantly play back from the cue points
that have been set in advance.
AUTO BEAT LOOP
Auto beat loops are prepared for setting loops automatically based on
the tempo of the music.
BEAT SYNC
Based on the GRID information of tracks analyzed with rekordbox, the
tempo (BPM) and beat position of tracks playing on this unit can automatically by synchronized with other DJ players connected by PRO DJ
LINK. The beat sync function helps you mix tracks and create mixing and
effect performances, greatly expanding the range of DJ performances.
QUANTIZE
This unit is equipped with a quantize function that automatically corrects the timing when using such functions as looping, reversing or slip
looping, even if you perform operations off-beat, as long as the track
has been analyzed with rekordbox. This enables accurate performances
without breaking the rhythm of the currently playing track.
