Buck_Choi Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 http://www.djwarehouse.com.au/BlogDescriptionThe brand new DJM2000 is Pioneer’s most powerful performance mixer and is the perfect match for the new industry-standard CDJ-2000 digital decks. With an innovative touch screen and arsenal of remixing FX, the DJM-2000 forms the ultimate club mixer. No less than six individual effects processors lay the foundation for hundreds of music manipulation combinations, so a DJ can always create their own unique sound.The new DJM-2000 takes advanced features – thought only possible in software – and reinvents them in the physical world. Its intuitive layout will feel natural to existing Pioneer DJM users allowing creativity to flow whilst keeping its technical complexity under the skin. The top of the range new mixer has been developed with the help of a number of international DJs. James Zabiela, Roger Sanchez, Eddie Halliwell, Tom Middleton, the Swedish House Mafia, Paul Woolford, John ‘00’ Fleming and Radio 1’s hard dance darling Kutski have all tested out the DJM-2000 at various stages of development – giving it the ultimate stamp of approval.The DJM-2000 mixer, in conjunction with the CDJ-2000, offers a new performance orientated platform for the increasingly futuristic artform as the next ten years unfold. Taking the best DNA from our other top end mixers and with other major enhancements, the DJM-2000 represents a new approach to mixing never seen before. It has effectively built in the technology of the EFX-1000, removing the need for an external effects unit along with touch screen technology from the SVM-1000.Features Interface layout allows more originality in arranging musicPioneer has laid out the interface in the centre of the mixer to give intuitive performance. DJs can add arrangements to music by not just rotary control, but via Tap and the new Trace method within the three Effect sections. Plus, the three Effect sections can be used in combination, giving the DJ all the more scope for original arrangements.5.8 inch Full-Colour, Multi-touch DisplayPioneer’s industry first* 5.8-inch large LCD multi-touch panel display means the DJ can see and hear the result of effects, while easily and intuitively operating the mixer like no other before.Three Performance ModesPioneer have added three kinds of performance modes: the FREQUENCY MIX enables a more precise music mix, the SIDECHAIN REMIX has seven kinds of dynamic effects, and the four types of MIDI mode allow the DJ to use a computer - making every DJing scenario possible. The unique new EQ cross fader takes frequency mixing to a whole new level.Evolved BEAT EFFECTS manipulate every frequency and alter sound to the beatThe new DJM-2000 is also equipped with an evolved BEAT EFFECT, a highly acclaimed function of the DJM series. EFFECT FREQUENCY allows the DJ to control the level of effects to add to each frequency band, so an echo can be added just to the vocals, or the hi-hat rhythm can be doubled, providing flexibility to perform like never before. Physical buttons have also been added for selecting effects and beats, making it possible to jump between different measures instantly.6 INST FX on every channel with rotary controlThe DJM-2000 also boasts six kinds of effects (NOISE, HPF, LPF, JET, ZIP & CRUSH), with an HP and LP FILTER knob for each channel. The PARAMETER knob allows for fine-tuning of each effect. Innovative effects such as NOISE (a white noise generator) when combined with new beat effects such as GATE, Slip Roll or Multi-Tap instantly unveil powerful remixing possibilities.Connect 4 CDJ-900/2000 and 2 rekordbox laptops via ProDJ LinkPioneer DJ players (CDJ-2000 & CDJ-900) that are compatible with ProDJ LINK and a computer with rekordbox installed can be connected to the mixer via a LAN cable which enables music to be shared across all 4 players from a single source.StorageThe music files and control data saved on an SD card*2 or USB storage device can be shared and played on up to four CDJ-2000 or CDJ-900 players via this mixer.rekordbox LINKThe music files and control data of rekordbox can be read and played on CDJ-2000 or CDJ-900 players via this mixer.Live SamplerSound input from MIC or sound output from the MASTER*4 can be recorded to this mixer and played on a CDJ-2000 or CDJ-900. Words recorded from the MIC can be immediately used for scratching or for other new performances on the linked CDJ’s.Link MonitorThe music files in rekordbox can be monitored on headphones. This allows the DJ to check the song before playing it on a player, thus making it a smooth-flow for selecting and playing a song.Status InformationThe status of each connected channel (On-air *5status, channel number, etc.) is sent to the connected CDJ-2000 or CDJ-900. The colour of the JOG wheel light changes for the current on-air*5 channel, allowing the current status to be checked at a glance during DJ play.Internal USB Audio/Midi InterfaceThe mixer is equipped with a USB Audio Interface, which allows the audio signal of music playing on a computer to be inputted to the DJM-2000 via a USB connection with the computer*6. This makes it possible to use a computer, even without an external sound card.From one computer up to a maximum of four sources of audio signal can be assigned to each channel. It is also possible to output the master output to the computer. This makes it extremely convenient to record the mixed audio.High-quality Sound Design Achieves Ideal Club SoundThe DJM-2000 uses a balanced output amp and its completely discrete structure allows the sound quality in each bandwidth to be adjusted. Pioneer pursued the ideal club sound by painstakingly creating a sound down to the very details of how sound resonates. By using a high fidelity, balanced hybrid op-amp and a perfectly balanced output circuit in the analogue processing, they achieved a reduction in noise with a dynamic range of 107dB with 0.004%THD, providing a clear, powerful sound.Isolator EQ on every channelEquipped with a switching 3-band EQ and 3-band Isolator on each channel the EQ provides control of +6dB to -26dB & the Isolator gives +6dB to -∞dB.Other Features- A digital IN on each channel permits input of an audio signal with no deterioration in sound quality.- Connection with a CDJ-900/CDJ-2000 with ProDJ Link or Control Cable will allow the player to start playing music by switching faders (“Fader Start Play”).- A Talkover function lowers the volume of the music when there is input from the Mic.- All channels are equipped with a Peak Level Meter for checking the input levels at a glance of the sources being input to each channel.- Pioneer’s Crossfader Assign function allows the flexible assignment of the input on each channel to the crossfader.- A Fader Curve Adjust function allows changes to crossfader and channel fader curves.- Convenient for club or studio as it is 19-inch rack mount ready (Meets EIA standards) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBG Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 this will definetily rival the Xone 4D.I still go the Xone though. That 2000's touch screen looks great especially the full eq, except the latency on it looks terrible and there is no way any DJ would use those trigger pads. Definetily a step frwd in catching A&H and they will most likely sell a shitload to idiotic club owners and DJs who only or have to buy pioneer. But in terms of a midi/stereo mixers, A&H has it for now. Pioneers built in EFX unit is a big win though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cupe Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 reckon the entire interface of a mixer will soon be like those touch things? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tubby Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 I can't imagine any club buying one. The abuse a house mixer goes through, no touch screen would be up to that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBG Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 touch screen, im not keen on... they had it right when they made the first mixer... rotary knobs!!FM mag: Are you using the new Pioneer mixer now too?Sasha: "No, sorry Pioneer, but I don't like it, I think they've really missed the boat with that one"Sasha: "I hate touch screens"..."I can just imagine having a soggy finger from drinking [or sweat] and it not working on the touch screen when I need it to"He has a point and Sasha's opinion is definetily one I respect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck_Choi Posted May 21, 2010 Author Share Posted May 21, 2010 yeah with a touch screen also has room for error. if you touch the wrong dial. where as knobs if you know your mixer well enough you dont need to really look down to try and search for it.
