Pioneer XDJ-RX all-in-one rekordbox DJ system

Product Information

The left-hand side of the mixer offers you access to headphone volume and cue/mix knobs. Above these knobs, you’ll find the Sound Color FX options. Controller DJs reading this and comparing features may well be realising at this point that a lot of this stuff is missing from most DJ controllers, even more expensive ones; even DJs who are used to Pioneer DJ booth mixers will notice that really, the only major thing missing here from such gear (apart from four mixer channels, of course) is a “split cue” for the headphones output. The mixer The XDJ-RX comes with a two-channel mixer that also works standalone, meaning you can plug your CDJs or turntables and use them as you would with a normal hardware mixer.

XDJ-RX3 - 2-channel performance all-in-one DJ system XDJ-RX3 - 2-channel performance all-in-one DJ system

In this age of multicore processor based standalone units and big.LITTLE configurations, the boffins at Pioneer DJ have turned out a unit capable of so much without development that would have undoubtedly resulted in a significantly more expensive unit. These are not post-fader FX – if you for example trigger an echo effect by using a pad and then try and move the active channel fader down to 0db you will simply cut the echoing audio short. The mixer section And another final point, trying to be really clever last year, I got a thunderbolt drive by La Cie, these DO NOT work with Rekordbox. They mount to the computer in a different way than USB and so their mount point changes, meaning your playlists will disappear or lose their path. Worth more trouble and really no need to have that kind of speed for audio, now I use it for VJing and SeratoI mean I used to have DDJ-SZ (only used it for very short time) and loved it but now I am thinking about getting: The XDJ-RX2 jog wheels feature only the same platter lights that are present on previous DDJ/XDJ series of Pioneer controllers – that is LED lights capable of displaying only a simple needle indicator. It is still essentially an XDJ-RX2, so do read our Pioneer DJ XDJ-RX2 review if you’re not familiar with the concept or how that unit works. In this review, we’re concentrating on the changes more than anything else. The touchscreen Auto BPM did not work when selecting MASTER for BEAT EFFCT channel while selecting LINE/PHONO for Input.

The Pioneer XDJ-RX has a familiar CDJ design makes the transition from the bedroom to the club a simple task! If you are looking for a professional all-in-one multiplayer solution, with many features found on the top-of-the-range CDJ-2000NXS2 and DJM-900NXS2 setup. Rekordbox DJ Now Included

Be able to use DVS to control my MP3s on the laptop/screen built into DJ controller (while I slowly build my vinyl records library) I prep pretty extensive playlists before gigs, so the cumbersome search function isn’t a deal-breaker for me, but hopefully they can update the firmware perhaps to allow for a USB keyboard input. EDIT: Pioneer XDJ-RX3 is now fully compatible with Serato DJ Pro! Pros & Cons of the XDJ-RX3: Pioneer XDJ-RX2 vs. Pioneer XDJ-RX3.

Have you managed to try xdi-rx with Rane’s SL2/3/4 audio interface box connected to the laptop, xdj-rx and 2 turntables (to get DVS compatibility and SeratoDJ compatibility-although I am not sure how SeratoDJ would work in that configuration) ? ? I have been forced to use Rekordbox at work, at first I hated it, but I have grown accustomed to it and its most redeeming feature is the lightness on PC load, that aside, to answer your question on playlists/Drives I have a thing for Pioneer – no, I am not a snob. I mean I like the way Pioneer is made – I like it visually and quality wise. For example, as good as A&H and Rane’s gear is, I am not that convinced by their gear in that respect. I dunno…those LEDs on VUs are round instead of squred off and it all looks a bit like a toy. Now it is not a deal breaker how it looks or feels but let’s just say that I would prefer to have something made by Pioneer. Secondly, the XDJ-RX has many of the practical benefits of a DJ controller, namely that everything is in one box, and so it’s relatively easy to move around, but with the standard layout and features of Pioneer DJ gear that will be instantly recognisable to any DJ used to playing on any Pioneer set-up from the past 20 years. With Pioneer’s Rekordbox laptop analysis pre-gig making it possible for Pioneer DJ equipment to more and more do what software / controller DJs can do, this controller has a lot of the fun of those systems, but with the added benefit of a small learning curve between it and the pro DJ booth.Slip Loop – the same as Roll mode on other Pioneer DJ controllers – triggers momentary loops as long as a pad is pressed down (1/16 beat to 2 beats + 1/3 and 3/4 beats)

The XDJ-RX can be connected to additional CDJs or turntables using the switchable Line/Phone input and used as a stand-alone mixer. It also features a LAN port, two MIC inputs, two Master outs and a booth out – making it a versatile solution for any set-up. While all these functions are useful it’s also fairly standard. Nothing stands out as innovative or impressive. I’d have liked to see the second layer of pad performance modes incorporated. Functions like Slicer or access to more Beat FX when using Rekordbox.

Rekordbox is Pioneer’s DJ software solution, but it’s slightly different to Serato, Traktor, VirtualDJ and the like, in that it is not intended to go into the DJ box with you – at least when it comes to standalone/all-in-one systems. Rather, it’s intended to be used to prepare your music beforehand, so that you can do all kinds of cool controller-type stuff in the DJ booth, without the laptop being there with you.
