Gearbase product details : Pioneer DJ DJM-3000

To ensure the widest possible music-making flexibility, the Pioneer 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!

The unique optional Rotary Fader Panel adds another handling to your mixing.


In essention the DJM-3000 is a stretched version of the DJM-600 with these differences :
- 19" rack mountable
- No Sampler
- Special Effect Mix Section
- Optional rotary kit available

Backside Shape
As like the DJM-600 the DJM-3000's backside is shaped like you can see on the picture. This way the connectors in the rear are not taking another 1 HE of rackspace...

Digital Output
Most mixers only have analog output, so this feature increases the options by allowing DJs to connect to a digital PA system, MD or DAT player, or any other device with digital input.

Digital Effects
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.

Effects Section

• DELAY - Produces repeat beat effect.
• ECHO - Repeated sounds that fade for echo effect.
• PAN - Automatically switches sounds between left and right speakers.
• TRANSFORMER - Cuts sounds at requested beat.
• AUTO FILTER - creates effects by manipulating sound frequencies.
• FILTER - Creates effects by manipulating sound frequencies.
• FLANGER - Produces an electronic wave effect.
• REVERB - a range of reverberation effects.
• PITCH SHIFTER - Manipulates music pitch within +/- 1 octave.
• SEND/RETURN - Connects available peripherals (external effects input/output).
• AUTO BPM - Beat measurement, from 70-180 BPM.

Effect Mix Mode
Easily and accurately effects phrases in a BPM-linked operation.

Faderstart
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.

Optional Rotary Faders
Pioneer now gives the DJ the option to change the faders on the DJM-3000 to rotary faders. To purchase this option just contact your local PRO DJ dealer and quote DJC-3000RV - the rotary fader option should be installed by a Pioneer approved service center. But any reasonable klever guy can do the trick...

For those Clubland purists there's an added ability to purchase an optional ROTARY volume dials for smooth club mixing. Changing the fader-panel to the rotary-panel is a fairly easy job, you can ask the shop where you buy the mixer to put it in for you...
