I think it’s a mixer problem, only one master output channel seems to be working as well.

Just double checking everything in case it’s a problem with the operator!!!

Has your A&H arrived yet ?

    I’d recommend the CDJ-3000s, played on them 4 times now as more venues are installing them and they are absolutely lush.

    Plus in firmware updates coming shortly I’m certain the inbuilt streaming from Beatport link will be added.

    There’s a lot of mileage to be had on those CPUs. You can add a lighting system which listens to the usb analysis and moves the lights for you on these (Denon also has something like this) but the CDJ-2000 nxs2 Cpu can’t power it.

    Aside from the feel of them and the increased size, I realised there is just something iconic about the orange and green play / cue rings - which seems a trivial thing to bring up, but feels like a truth people just don’t talk about.

    It is a lot more money but you’re also not in danger of needing to hire kit out if you get into events nor do you have to deal with peoples confidence issues when you have them round for a mix and put them in front of a Denon for the first time, you just get on with it.

      This is the key feature for me. Paired with a model 1.4 mixer I like the workflow of playing around with techno loops, having access to millions of tunes direct on the deck. Hopefully Pioneer updates the firmware on the 3k.

      Was thinking same, but then realised I could get more functionality for 2k less and spend the change on a decent mixer - made the controller vs separates decision a lot easier.

      The Beatport / Tidal / etc… integration on the Denons is pretty tight, especially that tunes you use from online sources can be accessed through playlist history, no fucking about.

      And I’m highly unlikely to have the plaything out dilemma you describe Nass 🙂

        Mad_Cyril yeah. I totally understand why anyone would want the SC6000 (or 5000 really). Packed full of features.

        Mad_Cyril Been using SC5000s since they came out, moving from CDJ900s NX2s. I love them. If you are minted, or playing in clubs all the time the Pioneers are the way to go. Otherwise I have no idea why people wouldn’t just choose Denons or the Pioneer RZ.

        Mad_Cyril sorry to hear that, will probably turn out to be a switch in the wrong place

        Yep arrived last week, did a stream on it last Friday, straight after setting it up. Genuinely impressed with it, it sounds incredible too

          Mad_Cyril Regarding the HD’s the cable can get pinched in the headband sometimes.

            Excellent stuff, helps when you have someone who knows what they’re doing plugging everything in 😂
