Is it just another DJ mixer or a whole new way of thinking? Here’s why Pioneer’s new flagship is a statement of intent.
New affordable DJ mixer from Reloop has everything you need and nothing you don’t.
Pioneer’s new top-of-the-range DJ mixer looks like a huge step up from the DJM-900NXS2, introducing a wealth of new features in a six-channel design.
Omnitronic’s TRM202 is one of the most affordable rotary DJ mixers on the market, but how does it stand up to pricier models?
Pioneer have announced the latest addition to their DJM line of mixers, the DJM-2000Nexus.
Late last year Allen & Heath announced the release of their flagship mixer the Xone DB4. Eagerly anticipated due to leaked/hacked information from their webserver, Juno Plus chose to reserve any further judgement until the arrival of our own unit.
The lack of a professionally built 2-channel mixer has long been evident in a market that is seemingly overcrowded with entry level units. Often these companions of the bedroom retail just above or below the £200 mark and lack the level of robustness, circuitry and sound quality found in their nightclub-worthy siblings. A round of applause then to Denon for embracing this task with aplomb, with the DNX-600.
The Pioneer DJM-2000 is touted as the world’s most forward thinking digital DJ mixing console. Designed in collaboration with a small group of elite DJs, the DJM-2000 is fully integrated with Pioneer’s flagship CDJ-2000 and CDJ-900 players and comes replete with an impressive (if slightly daunting) list of features. The most notable innovation is the 5.8-inch multi-touch screen, which enables the might of Pioneer’s EFX-1000 and additional new remix effects to be manipulated at the stroke of a fingertip. Another key feature is the LAN hub that enables up to four CD players to communicate with each other; combine this with Pioneer’s new database and set management system and Rekordbox, and the possibilities are just about endless.
