High quality DJ CD player with Cue points, Scratching functions, MultiMediaCard slot, Looping functions, Digital outs and much much more!

The CDJ1000MK2 is a powerful tool for live performance and studio use. It is equipped with professional options such as looping, digital I/O, 16 second shock-proof memory for normal CD play and much more. With all its options, it can be seamlessly integrated into a DJs set up. With vinyl scratch functions and turntable feel, it opens up creativity to all that music that may easier to find on CD.

Performance Control

Hot Cue (Sampler)
Memorizes up to 3 cue point's per CD. These points can then be recalled by hitting either of the A, B or C buttons. This function can also be used like a mini sampler for vocals, stabs, or breaks, adding that touch of creativity to any DJ set.

Reverse
Instant reverse is controlled by using a flickable switch. With no loss of tempo or pitch, it can be used immediately within any track without having to stop or start. Reverse can also be used with the Hot Cue and the Loop Sampler providing endless combinations and effects.

Real Time Seamless Loop
A quick and simple way to set a loop while a track is playing. Once the loop is set, it can then be looped continuously or until the ReLoop / Exit button is pressed. When released, the track continues playing without any pause. The loop can be re-trigged at any time by hitting the ReLoop button

Loop In / Out Adjust
Another world first from Pioneer - is the ability to adjust both the In and Out points of a loop stored in memory. So now fine tuning a loop is both quick and easy. Loop-In adjust is only read more available on the CDJ-1000MK2.

Reloop
Hitting the Reloop button instantly takes you back to the beginning of the loop stored in the CDJ-1000MK2's memory. This can be done either while the loop is playing or at any time while the current track is playing. Clever use of Reloop can create some sample like effects. The same loop is always stored in memory until replaced with a new loop.

Memory

MMC - MultiMediaCard
The CDJ-1000MK2 has a memory feature that let's you store Wave Data as well as Cue and Loop points. The data can be stored on a removable memory card (MMC) or the players internal memory. The removable MMC card can also be used in any CDJ-1000MK2, so once you've stored your favorite cue and loop points they're there for life. The CDJ-1000MK2 also has a feature that allows you to duplicate MMC cards. (A 16MB Multimedia Card (MMC) is supplied with the CDJ-1000MK2.)

Wave Data
CD Wave data is always saved on to the MMC when inserted and then appears instantly.

Cue / Loop Memory
Once you set a cue or loop point you can save it to either the internal memory or MMC card by hitting this button.

Delete
Gets rid of those Cue or Loop points that you shouldn't have bothered saving in the first place.

Call
A quick and easy way to scroll through saved cue and loop points.

CD Control

CD Control Buttons
High Quality Aluminum buttons - Track Search, Search, Cue and Play / Pause.

Jog Dial
Cue your CD's with the world's largest touch sensitive jog dial (7" / 206mm diameter) designed to emulate the control characteristics of a Vinyl Turntable, together with all the features from Pioneer's industry standard CDJ range of CD players. The CDJ-1000MK2 jogdial has been improved to offer a lighter and more natural response.

Pitch Bend
Is used to either speed up or slow down the tempo of the music depending the direction the jog dial is rotated - either forward or reverse

Jog Mode
The CDJ-1000MK2 can be set in either Vinyl or CDJ mode. In CDJ mode, the jog dial functions just like a Pioneer CDJ player, but without the touch sensitivity.

Scratch Play / Cue
When the CDJ-1000MK2 is in vinyl mode, the top of the jog dial functions just like a Vinyl Turntable. Pressing down stops the music and allows you to scratch or cue your track by rotating the jog dial in either direction.

Vinyl Speed Adjust Touch/Brake
This allows adjustment in the speed at which the CD slows down until it stops.

Vinyl Speed Adjust Release/Start
This allows adjustment of the speed at which the CD returns to normal playback speed.

Tempo

Master Tempo
Pioneer's Master Tempo locks the pitch of the track even when you change the speed. You can speed up or slow down the beat without any noticeable difference in how the vocal and instruments sound.

Tempo Control
A new 100mm linear high precision slider connected to a 0.02% (at +/- 6% and +/- 10%) adjustment indication on the display panel. Gives the DJ's that total control and ensures that the tempo adjustment is easy and accurate.

Tempo Control Range
Ranges of +/- 6%, +/-10%, +/-16% and +/-100% can be assigned to the Tempo Control slider to offer a greater range of adjustment than on any of the previous Pioneer CDJ's.

Tempo Control Reset
Resets the tempo to 0% or original tempo of the track regardless of the slider position. The button has been recessed to prevent accidental selection.

Eject Button & CD Lock
The CDJ-1000 does have a guard to prevent you from accidentally pressing it the eject button. The CD is locked until the track is stopped. This can be deactivated as well if you are looking to do quick mixes.

Multi-Read Format
The CDJ-1000MK2 can read CD, CD-R and CD-RW disks.

Front Loading
Loading CD's without having to open doors or trays makes swapping discs and selecting tracks that much faster. It also helps to keep dirt and any nasty substances out of the CD's working parts.

Cue Functions

Auto Cue
This is the fastest way to find the beginning of a track. The sound level can also be changed to suit your style of music (-36db to +78db). There is also an option to turn it off if you prefer to cue up your CD tracks manually.

Manual Cue
Cue points can be set anywhere on the CD using either the Vinyl or CDJ mode. Adjustment is made by using either the jog dial or manual search buttons. The cue point is automatically stored in the internal memory (If MMC is inserted in CDJ-1000, the cue point is automatically stored in the MMC.) until it is overwritten with a new cue point. (Jog resolution for both Vinyl and CDJ modes - 135 frames per revolution / 75 frames = 1 second)

*If a Multimediacard (MMC) is inserted into the CDJ-1000, the cue point is automatically stored in the cards memory.

Real Time Cue
A cue point can be set on the fly and stored into the internal memory by just simply hitting the In / Real-time cue button.

Cue Marker Display
The current cue point is indicated within the jogdial's center display to show where the cuepoint is relative to the current play position.

Fader Start / Back Cue
Start When the CDJ-1000MK2 is used with the DJM-600, DJM-500, DJM-300S or DJM-3000 mixer, you can start the music by sliding the cross fader. By sliding the fader back, it will return the CDJ-1000MK2 back to the previously selected cue point.

Built For The Professional DJ
To prevent accidental CD ejection or loss of mains power, the CDJ-1000MK2 has safety guards around the power and eject buttons together with a locking feature.

Relay Play
Connecting two CDJ-1000MK2's with a standard 3.5mm mini-plug cable allows one unit to be put on standby whilst the other plays. Relay Play automatically starts the second player enabling them to play 'back to back' to give you endless music play.

Legato Link Conversion For High Quality Sound
Equipped with Pioneer's wide range technology- Legato Link Conversion. The CDJ-1000MK2 is capable of reproducing sound frequencies above 20kHz, which are lost during normal CD-format playback. Not only does this give great sound reproduction but sounds closer to the original recording and more analog like vinyl.

Shock-Proof Memory and Anti-Vibration Construction
Sound jumps or skipping is prevented by using a 16 second shock-proof memory for normal CD play (minimum of 10 seconds if scratching and reading wave data at the same time in Vinyl mode).

Anti-Vibration
Oil-dampened floating suspension prevents sound skipping, even when the player is subjected to impact during use or vibrations generated from high volume music and low frequency bass.

Digital Output
The CDJ-1000MK2 is equipped with full-feature digital output. This means you can keep your scratching and master tempo playback entirely in the digital domain. Users who simply want to use the digital output for archival purposes may do so via the digital mode switch on the rear of the unit.

I feel that this machine has covered all the basics that I need. Many of the greatest DJ's have used the same Tech 12 analog players from day one and still use them until this day. I feel the same with my CDJ1000's. They will be here forever as is the Technics 1200's.

Sound
The sound quality is brilliant and very percise, no humming or static, great quality sound. I use these for DJing and putting vocals to instrumentals and the sound is still incredible. It is what you imagine from a studio pressed CD. When recording the playback is flawless.

Features
OK Dj's I am sorry that I have not proffesionally worked with my tech. 1200mk2, but because I started as a digital DJ, I would have to say the backspins and vinyl sounds are terrific. Cueing, large dial, looping (flawless), digital readout, all of this is easy to use. It is also very attractive, people that have never seen a digital turntable are absolutely amazed. It has no rotating platter, so people stare and wonder about how I get that vinyl sound from a CD player. I wish it had a sampler, and effects, then it would be a force to be reckoned with.

Quality
I have had mines now for almost 3 years, no problems yet. (Knock on wood).

Value
Definitely. It is and should be the standard for DJ's. I love the sound of my tech. mk2, but I can buy 1 billion CD's but vinyl is pricey and hard to find at times. It's read more worth every penny.

Manufacturer Support
Yes, I ordered a new crossfader for my DJM500 mixer. They had it to me in 3 days and answered every question. They were OK.

The Wow Factor
This is the next best thing to my family and GOD. I love my CDJ 1000's.
