The Pioneer CMX-3000 is not replacing the CMX-5000, both models existed a few years together.

Successor : Pioneer MEP-7000
Predecessor : Pioneer CMX-5000

The CMX3000 reads the track volume level and reproduces the data as a Wave display, which is patented by Pioneer. A visual mapping of the landscape of each track is represented in the display panel, denoting the highs and lows, allowing the DJ to quickly find breaks in the tracks to guarantee accurate cueing.

There is a 1000 CD internal memory, where the DJ can store three cue and loop points per CD, as well as Wave data for up to 20 tracks per CD. The stored data can also be copied to other CMX-3000 CD players. Smart Overwrite : When the 1000 CD capacity is reached, the CMX-3000 automatically deletes the CD information based on the amount of usage.

The CMX-3000 had a world first with the Dot Matrix display and an Emergency Loop button to quickly make a 4 beat loop in case the track would ran out.
