The 1000s still have a waveform display, it's just a 100 dot display instead of a full colour LCD screen. I have 850s and when I went and played on 1000s I was fine, the layout is all the same, just no USB input, and for me there was hot cues instead of auto loops so yer. All pioneer players are similar so besides using CDs instead of USB its all the same stuff man Ps. burn your CDs with cd-text enabled if you haven't already, makes things heaps easier
