Specifications
The DVJ-1000 offers the standard features and enhanced specification
of the CDJ-1000MK3, allowing DJs to easily add visuals to their sets.
It includes 'JOG feeling adjustment' that tailors the deck to performers'
individual styles and retains the familiar look and feel of the CDJ-1000MK3
with pitch control, cues and loops executed in the same intuitive fashion.
Formats and MP3 Navigation
The deck supports CD (CD-R/RW) and DVD (DVD-R/RW) media and performers
who work with DVD in Europe and the States will value the convenience
of built-in PAL/NTSC compatibility.
The DVJ-1000 sets a new benchmark for music portability - up to 1,000
MP3 tracks can be accessed on DVD-ROM - and provides the most advanced
deck for working with this ever-popular format. When connected to a
preview monitor, the MP3 Navigator makes track selection a breeze:
the information is displayed on a larger screen, DJs can search for
music by file and up to eight subfolders (for example, genre of music,
artist, track) and seven lines of text are available. For ease, a cursor
button is included on the deck to scroll through and select files.
Track information
DJs also receive more information from the Preview Output Display.
This enhanced feature provides an extensive dashboard (through a preview
monitor) that displays key information for DVD, CD and MP3 including:
DVD content, WAVE, title, artist, album, main cue points and three
hot cue points.
The DVJ-1000 retains the recent display improvements to the CDJ-1000MK3.
The 360° On-Jog Display is improved by being raised on the wheel
and lit fluorescently, the cue marker is larger and the 45° angle
marks make it easier for scratch DJs to time their effects. The track
display's resolution has been doubled and the lighting is multicolor
and fluorescent, while the WAVE data and playing address data encompass
a complete track.
Studio quality sound
With its 96 kHz/24-bit audio, the DVJ-1000 will be used by studios,
producers and artists who have the option of outputting their tracks
in optimum clarity. Connected to our digital chain of mixers and effectors,
the DVJ-1000 delivers unparalleled audio quality. Another feature that
appeals to music professionals is our Legato Link Pro. This digital
filter applies up-sampling technology to reproduce audio information
lost in some disc formats (DVD: 48 kHz \ 192 kHz; CD: 44.1 kHz \ 176.4
kHz).
Performance loops
A new back-and-forth loop button allows seamless looping in four sequential
steps forwards and backwards; it's a creative feature that also reproduces
a smooth progression of audio and images by removing jitter. Further
original developments include:
the one-track chapter seamless loop (the track is looped continuously
when the button is pressed for a second)
a 4-beat loop button (provides automatic 4-beat looping without needing
to select the out point)
an adjustable loop in point and the back lighting of the re-loop button.
For DVJs who use short video clips, the one-track loop button is a
convenient feature - it repeatedly plays back the content.
Fast search
A new 4X speed hyper jog mode has been created to support rapid searching.
This also accelerates the speed at which video and audio can be scratched
to extend creativity. The search facilities are complemented by a new
manual search facility using the Jog Wheel (at up to 160X speed) and
the WAVE display to locate tracks.
Additional features
As with the CDJ-1000MK3, gold RCA connectors are included and the
deck also has a digital out to ensure the highest level of sonic purity
when connected to the DJM-1000 or DJM-800 digital mixer series, for
example. In addition, the deck includes a 'resume play' function to
restart playing from the same point if a CD or DVD is accidentally
ejected.
- MP3 Playback from DVD-R/RW, CD-R/RW: Allows playback of MP3 files
recorded onto DVD discs (record about 1,500 MP3 songs depending
on bit rate and compression technology used).
- 4-Beat Loop: Pressing the button while playing automatically sets
a seamless four-beat loop.
- 24bit/96kHz Digital Out: The audio output for DVD provides a connection
to a Pioneer digital mixer (DJM-1000, DJM-800) that retains
the signal path entirely in the digital domain for a cleaner sounding
mix with
less noise and distortion.
- Preview Monitor: A preview screen shows a range of information
without the need to switch display modes, including: track
number, time, track
name/artist name/album title, wave display, playing address,
hot cue point data and cue point data.
- Cue / Loop Point Navigator: Display memorized cue / loop point
information on the preview screen of a monitor (12 points
per page) for quicker
navigation and callback of stored data.
