Can you still connect everything with ethernet cables to your computer with RB and drag and drop your music from RB onto the CDJ's on the bottom? Do you loose information or the waveform on the cdj when your connected to RB DJ? I have the NXS MK1 CDJ's and that's how I use it with my DJM 2000 Nexus as the HUB. Thanks in advanced.

    +DJ Tony Romeo yes, you can still do the ethernet connection to laptop for Rekordbox. there is still a 5th "Cue" button on the mixer to preview tracks on laptop before they are loaded in decks. I've not seen anyone test it with Rekordbox DJ, but I do know they are "fully supported". So I imagine waveform information is shown. I doubt they'd launch their top of the line gear without all the features supported

    I love Pioneer but I like my laptop more.. as long as my decks do their job, I am happy. This wont be cheap even in 2022. It is a expensive piece of equipment and necessarily sophisticated and because it is, it is very expensive. Instead of this, what I did was invested in a Gamer Laptop and Serato software. Works wonders and looks much better in terms of track-monitoring and playlists

But being able to take my CD's with house classics and still being able to use them on these decks is good. Cheers for the tips gents. But someone like me all i need, is cue, start and pitch control.

I have downloaded the firmware from online and I need to update both players. I'm using rekordbox dj to perform from my laptop so don't need usbs. However, it seems as though the only way to update the firmware on the cdjs is to use a usb ?? hope you can help Thanks

I expected to see a bigger waveform (since i only saw the one at the bottom which shows your complete waveform) and i got annoyed that i couldn't beat match any of my tracks because i couldn't see the first beat and had to do it by ear. Now my question is: Is the bigger waveform on the LED screen only a nexus option or did i miss something?

    I have a question on djing, as youll probably be able to tell by this question so im new to djing, so ill try and explain what i mean as clearly as possible. Basically, is there a way to hear the next song youre going to mix in only in the headphones im using without playing it outloud. Say for example i want to start a song half way through, like at the drop, taking out the verse and buildup. I was wondering if there is a way to do this and check through the headphones only? I know you can check on the visualiser thing, but is it possible to do this just in the headphones and how would you do this. I hope it makes sense :)

    It's a fairly similar process across most gear - you'll find these features on the mixer (or the mixer section of a controller). For the mixer that goes with this - the Pioneer DJ DJM-9000NX2, you'd do this using the Headphones section in the bottom left of the mixer, along with pressing Cue underneath whichever channel you're pre-listening/hearing in your headphones. Essentially the fader for that channel would be down with the cue button selected, and you could use the volume knob in the headphones section to hear the track without it being live. Once you raise the upfader for that channel, the track will be live. We go over the features for that mixer here: www.digitaldjtips.com/2016/03/review-video-pioneer-dj-djm-900nxs2-mixer/

    For those saying you can't afford this set. Find out if your local music store offers to finance. Save up a couple grand for a down payment, and then pay the rest off (with most finance options) by 1,2,3, or 4-year terms. If you want DJ'ing to be a side income or full-time job, take some money from your gig payments and put more money down per month or every month that you seem fit. Just be smart with your money. Though I must say, don't grab this whole set-up if you're just in your bedroom with no dreams of doing gigs and potentially making money DJing, it would be a big waste of money...only because you won't be seeing the return of investment. It's never bad to invest in yourself and your career.

    Blimey, so many questions Bryan! No, they don't "run" any software, they work with Rekordbox libraries which need to be analysed on a laptop to unlock all the feature. that said they will work with Serato in HID or DVS set-ups, but you have to take your laptop along to do that. All prices are in the written reviews. There are no mic inputs on the CDJs, no. No we don't work for or have any affiliation with the companies that make the products we review, we're completely independent (e are a DJ school).

    @@Skeytch107 It's needed if you want any of all the digital functionality. It works fine with non analyzed music files on a usb stick, but you get the same functionality as with CD's on a CDJ-1000Mk3. Kind of an expensive way... and Rekordbox is a free software you can download and use without owning any gear. Don't confuse Rekordbox with Rekordbox DJ. The later is a DJ software like Serato and Traktor and is NOT required for these players as they are stand alone gear. After you've analyzed your music in Rekordbox, you export your music to a USB-device that will bring all the digital functions to life. Or, you can connect you laptop to the same network (link) as the players and load the tracks directly from Rekordbox. In this case the laptop will work as a storage with a big screen.

And you can filter it to only show compatible keys. it also has countdown to cue point on the beat grid count at the top of the player, if you've set memory/cue points in the track. and I mean, yea you gotta press one button to access the other 4 cues, but I don't see that as a deal breaker. How often are you juggling 8 different cue points at the same time that you can't press a single button to switch between half of them?

    D-Squared Fair enough for the cue points, not juggling that often between all 8 cue points, but something I rely on is adjusting the pitch in +/- 1 increments to change the key (I'm using Traktor), I believe Serato has that as a pitch lock feature so that it automatically changes the pitch for you in case in differs from the track being played.

    They should really ship them with Digital Coax cables instead of RCA. i mean cmon. they're touting these as superior sound quality, keep the signal digital the whole way through to the DSP for best S/N ratio. You literally cannot clip the channels (not the master, the channels) when you have digital inputs due to the 32bit floating point D/A (literally, try it, the clip indicator lights will not light up no matter how much you go into the red with digital inputs, yes I know red is bad. just explaining a point). it's 2016 and they still ship with RCA
