Pioneer DJ DDJ-1000 Rekordbox Controller Review

The Pioneer DJ DDJ-1000 controller is the latest flagship DJ controller that was recently released to work perfectly with the Rekordbox DJ software. This controller comes with full-sized mechanical style jog wheels found on the CDJ's with full color hi-res screens in the middle to show waveforms and other track information.

You can change filter in settings for full kill, great review as always, this is also my favorite controller but doesn’t seem like a controller

Hey man, is it possible to jump to a pre-saved loop in the middle of the song when the song is ending? Great vid 🙏

[mjolles]

Don't laugh, but I started Dj'ing in 1973, my first set up was 2 Garrard SP25 decks with a slide fader preamp I constructed, and after a few gigs afforded a Citronic mixer with a 3 Goldring G99 decks, then in 1978 progressed to a Stanford M1776 mixer + Technics SL1200Mk2's, brilliant for around 10 years, now sold but now and still have the Pioneer DJM 3000 mixer & CMX 3000 and 3 years ago added the XDJ Aero with Rekordbox, that's 45 years in the game, and during all these years one can imagine amassed some brilliant quality dance tunes. My contention is most club goers are allegedly 18 and over and surely they wouldn't want to hear the ridiculous sounds that is demonstrated from 14:40 > fine if you're running a youth club with these young "bedroom jocks" but come on Dj's there are so many fine tunes around where if you need to sample think of the more mature crowds on the dance floor, practice 'mixing in' familiar samples on the fly.

I have a large mobile setup and would like to replace the DJM 3000, CMX 3000 & the Aero, this new DDJ-1000 with 4 channels is a contender as I would still have a CDJ or two for back up.

Just to add I cringe when I have been invited to private parties where the Dj is just far too young to know what tunes works best, who is more concerned in trying to impress us with he's ability and skill using all of the multiple effects available which completely looses the plot. (Dj from the UK)

Nice review. I've been a SDJ user for many years but this unit makes me want to give RB a go. Wish it was standalone : (

[alonzojacobs]

How about a tutorial on importing music from iTunes and external hard drives and how to set up/organize playlists?

[stormtraders]

Question, i got the controller secondhand and it’s like barely used. I still have to hook it up but is rekordbox pre installed? Because i don’t see a keycode or cd . And are there maybe ways i can retrieve that

[DrumChops]

NICE REVIEW by the way I was wondering does it work with Virtual DJ.
Thanks 😊

[bladerunner]

Excellent review, thank you! I'll be buying myself one for a Birthday gift haha.

[sebastianb]

Finally, Great review! I love this channel 😀

[rjbirdyk]

How's about an in depth review of the ddj sz vs ddj 1000.. ?

[djbigstyles]

Review dope as usual and I'ma let you finish but... Ye's "All Mine" sounding good af in this video!

[aries]

Yo, great review as usual.I think that the should come out with something like the NS3 for screens to supplement the need for external screens.
But on a separate note please rate the content not the item being reviewed.

Hi and thank you for your helpful insight. I have sampled thousands of techno music and mixed using free trail softwares. But now I decided I want to buy a good mixer close to what professional club Djs would use. I want to be a home or club DJ one day. I am looking to purchase a good mixer I can use USB mostly with or without having to use a laptop. without software ? I would love to find a controller close to what a professional club Dj would use ? plug & play into speakers without having carrying a laptop- Optional. Ok to narrow down. A UNIT - with built in USB PORTS- MIC- MP3 FILES. ANTI STATIC - GOOD SOUND- I CAN RECORD YOUTUBE VIDEOS ? a controller close to what a professional Dj would use. Please any recommendations ? what do most night club DJ's use these days ?
