The Pioneer DJ DDJ-RZ controller and mixer expands on the already impressive capabilities of Pioneer's DDJ-RX, and adds even more performance-focused functionality. The DDJ-RZ adds the OSC Sampler, which allows you to load up samples like Noise, Sine, Siren, and Horn for instant triggering. And it sports two USB ports for seamless DJ transitions - the next DJ up just connects their laptop, and they're ready to take over without breaking your set. A rugged and responsive magnetic crossfader allows for classic DJ techniques, and you can even adjust the resistance of the jog wheels to match your preferred feel.
Whether you use them to scratch or just to shuttle playback position, the large aluminum jog wheels on the DDJ-RZ feel precise and responsive. Illuminated cue point markers help you stay on track while you're performing.
The Pioneer DJ DDJ-RZ packs four preset Sound Color FX: Noise, Crush, Pitch, and Filter. They're a great way to add effects to your set without using a separate effects processor, and you can even customize the effects with forthcoming rekordbox dj Plus Packs.
While the DDJ-RZ is an ideal controller for digital DJs, especially with rekordbox dj software, it's ready to perform with CDs and vinyl turntables too. Four inputs allow you to hook up multiple sound sources, while a booth output and two master outputs are ready to connect to the house sound system. Two mic inputs are present, engineered to eliminate distortion so you can be heard loud and clear.
