DJM1000 PROFESSIONAL DJ / CLUB INSTALL 6 CHANNEL HIGH GRADE AUDIO MIXER

PIONEER DJM-1000
Professional Club 6 Channel Audio Mixer

The Pioneer DJM-1000 is a 6 channel 19" robust installation grade mixer with the highest quality digital audio, enhanced functionality and intuitive design. It's the result of extensive industry research and development with world-renowned DJs, club technicians and installation engineers.

Pioneer's heritage in digital technology has been used to create a high-grade digital audio path for the DJM-1000. The mixer has a 24-bit/96kHz digital sampling rate and a 32-bit/96kHz digital sound processor. The DJM-1000's digital input-output signal path allows for transparent signal processing of Pioneer's CDJ and DVJ series of digital decks, ensuring the best possible sound quality.

Analogue input signals are also digitized by a high quality A/D converter and mixed without any deterioration to the audio. The unit has a rigid chassis to minimize vibrations and a high performance power supply to produce a clear, powerful sound.

The DJM-1000 employs Pioneer's expertise in audio technology to create a high-end reference audio mixer that is easily connected to traditional DJ equipment as well as other digital devices like samplers, effectors and digital turntables - giving professional DJs uncompromised performance and the flexibility to perform the best possible sets.

The DJM-1000 is also designed to integrate easily with the new Pioneer EFX-1000 Effector along with future Pioneer Pro-DJ products. It even has the possibility to connect to two of them on their own Send and Return. All will share the same high quality sound and can be controlled via digital links to give even greater variety to a DJ's performance.

“In complete honesty the DJM-1000 is the best all round mixer I've ever used. The problem I've had with mixers in the past is that there has never been one that has it all just right for me. The perfect mixer was always a cross between two or three different mixers. What makes a good mixer is a number of things and this has them all. Awesome sound, tank style build, two send and returns for separate FX units which can both be digitally linked and controlled by the cross-fader which also boasts complete curve control. At last someone has made a mixer I'd be happy to use in any situation. Whether it's DVJing, Effecting, Scratching or fluid beat matching this is the all round winner.” James Zabiela, DJ.

FEATURES

Digital Link System
Pioneer have developed a new connection protocol to connect Audio and Visual mix equipment with each other. The basic idea behind it is that the DJM-1000 can be used as a fully Digital 24 bit/96kHz Control Centre for all hooked up deviced like Audio and Video Effectors/Mixers that support the Digital Link.

Visual
When this button is activated and a video mixer is connected that supports Digital Link, the Cross Fader of the DJM-1000 can be used to control video transitions. You can still select all build-in effects and transitions of the Video Mixer, but now you control the transition with the Cross Fader. The button will be white illuminated when activated.

Sound 1/2
When the DJM-1000 is connected with Digital Link to a CD Player AND an Effector (Pioneer EFX-1000) to a the whole system can utilize all BPM synced functions. These buttons will be blue illuminated when activated.

EFX 1/2
When the DJM-1000 is connected via Digital Link with an Effector (Pioneer EFX-1000) you can use the all Fader Function of the EFX-1000. The button will be blue illuminated when activated.

Inputs/Control Channel 1-6
The DJM-1000 has a total of 24 inputs, each of the 6 channels can select: 2 Line Inputs, 1 Digital input and a Phono (Turntable) Input!

12 Line or CD Players
6 Phono (6 Decks... Let the battles begin)
4 Coaxial Digital Inputs (This is where to connect the CDJ-800/CDJ-1000)
2 Digital Link
2 Effects each on a separate Send/Return
1 Microphone

Gain Trim
The Gain Trim has a range from infinite (silent) to +9db. The most optimal setting of the Trim is around 12 O'clock (0dB).

This is something that is already integrated into the EQ rotaries in the DJM-600/DJM-707/DJM-909:

In horizontal position to the left, the EQ is cut down.

When you rotate further down than horizontal to the left, the frequency of the EQ is in the corner 'killed' to a level of -26 dB!

If you want to gently fade in a track you might want to start with the EQ not all the way down, but around horizontal to the left. The kill is in most case to much for gentle mixing...

Channel Faders
The channel faders are custom made by ALPS and are longer than those of the DJM-600.

Fader Curve Adjustment
The Channel Faders and the Cross Fader have their own curves that can be adjusted with the rotation of the knob you see here. These are located in the left corner of the mixer. The Channel Fader Curve adjusts the curves of all the 6 faders at the same time so all channels have the same curve.

 

When making adjustments to the DJM-600 you control the curve in 17 steps according to the chart you see illustrated here. The straight line is the curve that Pioneer has used in their DJM-600s, also called a lineair curve.

Some other brands have faders that follow a logarithmical curve, this is a setting that fits better to the human hearing than a lineair curve. Each of both curves have their own sound and benefits. Now you can make your own choice. You can change the setting for each transition you make.

Midi Output on Cross Fader
The Pioneer DJM1000 has the possibility to send a 0-127 MIDI signal out, related to the position of the Cross Fader. The MIDI is sent out on Channel 1 using the standard protocol. When the Digital Link is activated, no MIDI data will be sent out. This will be send out via the Digital Link System. A quick sample configuration is shown in the illustration below. This is probably the most compact DVJ set.

Send and Returns
The DJM-1000 has 2 individual Send and Returns, each with their own settings and level.

Cue
You can listen to the signal back on the Return by pressing the CUE button. The button will light up when activated. A low level illumination make sure that you'll find the Cue Button in a dark envirement.

Assign Switch
Each of the Send and Returns can be assigned to any of the 6 Channels, the Mic input or the Master.

Level Adjust
With the Level you can adjust the Return level of the effect. You should always output on your Effector at 0dB.

On/Off
The button to toggle the Send and Return on and off. When ON the button will flash, giving you a clear indication that something is happening.

Routing the Send and Return
Both Send and Returns can also be set to Pre-Fader, Post-Fader or as Auxiliary indivudualy. The best way to describe what this does is reading these block diagrams:

Pre-Fader The S/R is inserted before the Channel Faders. When you close the Channel and/or Cross Fader you also lower the volume of the effect. i.e. when using a delay, you don't hear the delayed sound when you've close the Fader. This setting is best used when performing Sound Manipulating (equalizing) effects.

Post-Fader The S/R is inserted after the Channel Faders. When closing the Channel Fader you lower the volume of the channel, but the signal on the Return is not effected. i.e. when using an Echo, the orignal signal is lowered, but this has a delayed effect on the Echo. Even when you close the fader the echo keeps hearable until it has ended.

Aux Type The S/R is inserted after all Channel and Cross Faders but is also mixed via the Cross Fader (if assigned) with the original signal. This gives you even more possibilities to connect devices and effects.

Mic Input
The Primary Microphone Input features a combi connector that makes it possible to insert a microphone with either a Jack or XLR type connector. Most professional microphones have an XLR type connector, which give a more reliable connection than a Jack Phone type connector.

Microphone Level
You can set the level of the microphone in the range from infinite (not hearable/muted) to 0dB.

Microphone EQ
Bass	-6 ~ +6 dB (100 Hz)
Treble	-6 ~ +6 dB (10 kHz)

 

 

 

Microphone Selector
With this switch in the far left postion (OFF) the microphone signal is muted and not hearable on the master. The same effect as if the Mic Level is set to infinite.

When set to the centre position (ON) that microphone signal is mixed with the Master, the level is set by the Mic Level rotary.

The far right position (TALK OVER) activates an input controlled mute, also called Talk Over. When a sound is detected on the Microphone Input higher than -15dB all channels will be attenuated with -20dB.

Isolator
The Isolator rotaries need to be activated by this button before changes take effect. When activated the button will be red illuminated. The large aluminium knobs can kill each bandwidth untill a total Kill (minus infinite dB)

Booth Monitor
Beside the Booth Level you now also have an EQ for your monitors.

Bass	-6 ~ +6 dB (100 Hz)
Treble	-6 ~ +6 dB (10 kHz)

 

 

 

Headphones
All the usual features as in the Pioneer DJM-600 layout. With the switch you can split your headphones so that you have the Master Signal (if the Cue Button on the Master Channel is activated) on the Left Side and the other Cue-ed Channels on the Right Side of your headphones.

Faderstart
All channels have an individual button to activade or deactivate the Fader Start control to the CD player that you might have connected.

The button with the number of the channel will be lit up when Fader Start is activated for that channel.
