The Pioneer DJ CDJ-3000 is a Professional DJ Multi-Player which opens up a new world of creative possibilities. This highly impressive DJ Player uses an all-new MPU (Microprocessor Unit) to deliver even more power, stability and reliability. The audio design has also been enhanced and offers the ultimate sound with the internal 96kHz/32-bit Floating Resolution for all playable Audio Formats. In addition, the User Interface has been optimised and features dedicated Hardware Buttons for direct access to 8x Hot Cues, Beat Jump, Key Sync and the advanced Beat Loop section. This allows the DJ CDJ-3000 to be used like a Musical Instrument.
The High-Resolution 9” Touch-Screen Display offers unprecedented functionality shows all the information you need at a glance. Improvements have also been made to the 206mm Jog Wheel. In addition to the centred LCD Screen, the Touch Latency has been reduced and the mechanics have been modified to ensure smoother performance. Practical features such as Pro DJ Link with Gigabit Ethernet, Touch Preview, Touch-Cue, Shortcuts, Stacked Waveform and the 3-Band Waveform enable a faster workflow in DJ performance. The Outer Shell and Controls are made from high quality, rugged components to ensure the stability and durability of the CDJ-3000.
Since the introduction of Rekordbox 6.0 in April 2020, there are a lot of new features and a new subscription system with each of the 3x models, Free, Core and Creative (paid subscription - not included). The Pioneer DJ CDJ-3000 acts as an Unlock Device and activates Performance Mode without the need to subscribe to a paid plan. The download link for the Software and details of the subscription can be found on the Rekordbox website.
9” High-Resolution Touch-Screen
The Touch-Screen, which is larger and clearer than that of the CDJ-2000NXS2, provides additional Information, Shortcuts and Buttons for frequently used Categories and Functions such as Playlist and Search. You can also Customise the Information displayed and set Preferences for various things such as Text Size. The Screen also supports Swipe Movements for Navigation, and you can rearrange the Playlist by touching the Screen. A number of New Features help DJs choose the perfect track and timing to add to your mix.
Versatile in Performance
In Export Mode, you can play music from USB Drives analysed in Rekordbox. To use the Link Export or Performance Mode, simply connect a Laptop with USB-HID Control. The Performance Mode is available free of charge, a paid subscription is not required. This allows you to play all titles from the Rekordbox Library, including Beatport/Beatsource LINK and SoundCloud Go+ (subscriptions are required for streaming services).
Touch-Cue
With Touch-Cue you can listen to another part of the Track you're playing by simply tapping the Waveform - and the audience won't hear what you're doing. This is especially useful if you don't know the course of a Track very well, for example. Touch-Cue makes it easy to identify Mix Points, which is a great help for DJ Transfers and sets with 2x DJs. Link-Cue even allows you to listen to different parts of the Track that another DJ is playing on a separate Player.
Supports 3-Band Waveforms
With the help of the 3-Band Waveforms you can tell at a glance how a Track sounds without even listening to it. The Levels of the individual Frequency Bands are displayed in different colours after the Tracks have been analysed by Rekordbox. You can immediately see how the Frequencies of a Track are distributed. The 3-Band Waveform is added to the existing RGB Options.
Pro DJ Link & Gigabit Ethernet
The Gigabit Ethernet connection for Pro DJ Link allows Audio Files from USB Devices and SD Cards to be output and played on up to 6x CDJ-3000s when combined with a 6-Channel Mixer such as the DJM-V10.
Extended Auto-Beat-Loop
In addition to the popular 4-Beat-Loop control of the CDJ-2000NXS2, the CDJ-3000 has an 8-Beat-Loop Button for even more creative possibilities. The advanced polyrhythmic Loops can also be used to Re-Mix Tracks spontaneously.
Wanted to buy these decks for almost a year and having to wait 6 months was extremely frustrating but from when I was told they were available to when I received was very happy with the overall customer service. Loved these decks and will be looking to buy another set as well as the top of the range pioneer v10 mixer… best there is
