Variety of Effects

The DJM-850 follows Pioneer’s traditional mixer layout, featuring a variety of advanced sound
effects that provide DJs with virtually limitless possibilities when mixing their music. Pioneer
includes a new BEAT COLOR FX function, which changes effects by linking the audio input
from each channel.

• Sound Color FX - The Sound Color FX offers four types of effects (Filter, Crush, Noise
and Gate) that can be linked to the input sound of each channel.

• New Beat Color FX - Users can quickly change between the new Beat Color FX and
Sound Color FX to suit each tune for further remixing and sound capabilities. By
activating the Beat Color FX, users are able to manipulate the Sound Color FX and
Beat Effect simultaneously, resulting in more creative effects that complement the beat
of the music.

• Beat Effect - The Beat Effect function presents 13 different types of effects (Delay,
Echo, Up Echo, Spiral, Reverb, Trans, Filter, Flanger, Phaser, Robot, Slip Roll, Roll, and
Reverse Roll) that can be combined to produce up to 100 other original effects.

Supreme Sound Quality

• Built-in 24bit/96kHz High Performance USB Soundcard - An integrated high
performance USB sound card enables up to four inputs/outputs
no deterioration in sound quality. The sound card supports three different sampling rates

simultaneously with

(96kHz/48kHz/44.1kHz) and the ASIO/Core Audio standards that can also be used for
music recording and production. The USB port on top of the mixer provides quick
connections to use DJ software via laptop. The signal output path from the mixer can be
easily modified using its setup utility tool3 via a computer.

• Sound quality - The use of high quality components such as a 32-bit digital-to-analog
output converter and a 32-bit digital signal processor, separate analog and digital
circuitry, and extremely short audio transmission paths results in clear and powerful
audio output.

TRACTOR SCRATCH 2 Certified

The DJM-850 offers compatibility to the Scratch Control (DVS) with Native Instrument’s TRAK­TOR SCRATCH PRO 2/DUO 2 software. Using the timecode disc bundled with the software
and a PC, the DJM-850 is ready for scratch control (DVS) with a CDJ player or Vinyl turntable.

Additional Features

• MIDI Signal - Operation information of the mixer’s knobs and buttons can be transmitted
as a MIDI signal5 for a “Full Ensemble MIDI” function to control other connected devices.

• Switching 3-Band EQ/Isolator - Each channel of the mixer is equipped with a
switchable 3-band EQ (+6dB to -26dB) and 3-band isolator (+6dB to -∞dB)

• High Performance Channel Faders - The slide mechanism supports the fader knobs

with two metal shafts for both durability and smooth operation. Furthermore, the new
mechanism’s design minimizes the negative effects of moisture and dust particles on the
mixer’s performance.

• P-LOCK Fader Cap - Keeps the fader channel and crossfader knobs (caps) locked,
preventing them from physically slipping off during heavy use.

• Scratch Control - Scratch control8 is possible by using the time code disc7 bundled with
DJ software supporting DVS (Digital Vinyl System)6 from CDJ players and vinyl turntables.

• Auto Standby - Automatically senses active operation and the presence of input signals,
switching to standby mode when inputs are not detected for a long period..
