Pioneer DJ DDJ-RZ & DDJ-RX Official Introduction

Introducing the DDJ-RZ and DDJ-RX – the worlds first hardware to deliver native control of rekordbox dj performance software. The controllers give rekordbox DJs the ultimate flexibility and convenience: to prepare their tracks in rekordbox and then get plug-and-play performance with the software, direct from their laptop.

rekordbox dj is a Plus Pack available to buy from within the latest rekordbox software. Unlocking rekordbox dj gives DJs access to features including Hot Cues, Sampler, Slicer, Sound Colour FX, Beat FX, Beat Jump and the industry’s first Pad FX. And with the fastest response time, it’s a stable and reliable performer in any environment.

The DDJ-RZ and DDJ-RX mirror the layout of the software precisely to enable intuitive creative performances. Low latency jog wheels with On Jog Display, multi-coloured Performance Pads and a four-channel mixer deliver highly responsive, tactile control. New to these controllers are the beat parameter buttons, Sampler Cue mode, and the Sequencer mode – which lets DJs record and loop sample sequences on the fly. Plus improved MIC channels deliver a high-quality sound.

The top-flight DDJ-RZ takes the creative possibilities even further, sharing all the features of the DDJ-RX, plus a club-quality magnetic crossfader and large jog wheels inherited from the top-flight CDJ-2000NXS. The OSC Sampler gives DJs the freedom to trigger and manipulate pre-set oscillator samples – or load their own in rekordbox dj. Two USB sound cards and ports with a top-loaded input switcher enable smooth DJ transitions.

The DDJ-RZ and DDJ-RX are available from October 2015 and come bundled with the rekordbox dj Plus Pack.

@3:04 : I still don't understand how the 'slicer loop' captured slices sounded chopped or gated, instantaneously, when sampler-sequence-recorded. Slices are captured as one-shot by default so it still sounds joined/fluid (not chopped) when triggered in order. I have to tediously & manually edit each of the 8 sample slices to 'gate mode'.

This came up as an advert, I then had to track it down because I thought it was so interesting. All adverts should make you want to watch them like this.

I have XDJ-RX and what can i say? its a crossover between a controller and a professional cdj 2000 nexus setup, and i`m very happy with it.First i had a Weego after that Sr and i`ve realized i spend to much time looking at the laptop screen, and you dont learn how to mix by ear, or in the club you lose the connection with the crowd, in my opinion we dont need new controllers, maybe s bigger rx with cdj jog and 4 channels or some new cdj, djm, etc.They made controllers because more people can afford them and now they are selling the same thing over and over again with different lights and software:))) to make easy money of course.Good job pioneer!!

Pioneer is the best always no. 1 with DJ equipment. I would never use a different company.

[ALLIIRecords]

So on the oscillator will the noise effect be manipulable like on the DJM? It's not a color effect so just wondering will it sound anything like the DJM?
