DJM-3000 19” RACKMOUNT MIXER |
PIONEER INTRODUCES |
| Stoke Poges, November 2001 - On 21st November 2001, the Pro Audio Group of Pioneer, the world leader in professional DJ equipment, introduced to the world Pioneer's first Pro DJ rack mount mixer; the DJM-3000.
To ensure the widest possible music-making flexibility, the DJM-3000 is equipped with an industry-first EFFECT MIX MODE that easily and accurately effects phrases in a BPM-linked operation along with an improved auto beat effector. In addition to ECHO and ZIP Pioneer has come up with another industry first effect that has been named “Roll”. This runs a mix while changing the pitch of the song up the chromatic scale to the beat of the music. A new feature which allows the DJ to take his/her music to a new level! Still with the most accurate internal “Beat Per Minute” counter in the industry, the AUTO BPM COUNTER automatically measures and digitally displays a track's BPM (measurement range: 70-139/91-180/70-180/ Manual ) allowing the user to merge one song into another smoothly. Tapping on the TAP button enables you to manually input BPMs of tracks that are difficult to measure. DJ's can now see the music beat, making it faster and easier to mix tracks with different beats. Just like the DJM-600, the DJM-3000 inherited from it's little sister all it's effects including Delay, Echo, Auto Pan, Flanger, Pitch Shifter Reverb, Auto-Transform and Auto-Frequency Filter ALL of which are auto BPM effectable! Linked to BPM, the DJM-3000 can add effects to each input (CHANNEL, MIC and MASTER) independently. The user can produce music that makes full use of high-level DJ techniques by performing quick setting with the BEAT UNIT SWITCH BUTTON, adjusting the precise time parameters, or controlling the balance between the effect sounds and the original sounds by varying the mix ratio. Moreover, even when using the fader, it is possible to leave just the effect sounds without linking to BPM.
For those Clubland purists there's an added ability to purchase an optional ROTARY volume dials for smooth club mixing. EQUALIZERS OTHER NEW FUNCTIONS |
Connected to the CDJ and CMX Series, the DJM-3000 can begin playback of a track using the sliding cross fader or the channel fader. It can mix tracks without creating spaces by setting the stand-by track's cue point and performing a single-action cut-in. Since it returns to the cue point via the back fader alone, sampler-style playback is also possible. The cross fader also has a selectable fader curve to fit all styles of Dj'ing.
