The ability to mix tracks spontaneously and seamlessly is central to a DJ's success and accordingly, this unit answers the need for the highest possible levels of flexibility.

As well as inheriting effects such as Delay, Echo, Auto Pan, Flanger, Pitch Shifter Reverb, Auto-Transform and Auto-Frequency Filter from the DJM-600, this new model also incorporates an industry-first: Effect Mix Mode. It utilizes 3 effects (Echo, Zip and Roll) to transition from one song to the next in a BPM Linked Operation. The Roll Mix Effect is new to Pioneer. It effectively creates a drum build before segueing into the next song.

Flexible Functions

The DJM-3000 boasts an Auto BPM Counter too, yet another outstanding legacy of Pioneer's expertise in the mixing arena. Recognized as the most accurate internal "Beat Per Minute" counter in the industry, the Auto BPM automatically measures and digitally displays a track's tempo from 70-180 BPM. This allows for the instant synchronization of BPM and effect, enabling the DJ to seamlessly merge one track into another.

For tracks that are difficult to measure, DJs can use the Tap button to manually input the BPM and then refer to the Beat Indicator for confirmation that the required beat is linked to the Auto BPM. With the music beat in view in this way, DJs are able to mix tracks with different beats much faster and more easily.

Linked to BPM, the DJM-3000 can add effects to each input (Channel, Mic and Master) independently. Moreover, the DJ can perform quick setting with the Beat Unit Switch button and adjust the precise time parameters, or else control the balance between the effect sounds and the original sounds by varying the mix ratio. Even when using the fader, it's possible to leave just the effect sounds without linking to BPM.

The DJM-3000 is equipped with a separate 3-band equalizer (HI/MID/LOW) for each channel. This arrangement allows the stress of the instrument sounds to be adjusted within the range -26dB to +12dB.

As a result of combining these user-friendly features within a club-toughened shell, the DJM-3000 scales the heights of mixing technology today and allows DJs to reach the summit of play-out performance.

Think of all the work (brainpower and labor) it takes to put it together. There are a lot sub contractors involved, as well as the engineering that goes into such a product. Still pricey though.

The #1 thing I can say to make a mixer last long is dont let anyone else play on it. Some people have no concept of being gentle with expensive equipment...
