CDJ-400 and DJM-600 Review







Pioneer CDJ-400 Information & Features

The CDJ-400’s cosmetic design is simple and compact yet elegant with all of its various controls and features located directly on top of the unit.

USB Integration and MP3 Playback
The CDJ-400’s cosmetic design is simple and compact yet elegant with all of its various controls and features located directly on top of the unit. A USB port found on the face of the player allows DJs to play their MP3 music collection from a wide variety of portable music devices such as thumb drives, MP3 players or external hard drives. With the use of a multi-function selector knob/button and its large, bright, dot-matrix LCD display, locating and accessing of files from these types of music devices as well as MP3 music files on CD and CD-R/RW through the CD slot are done with a turn and press of the knob.

DJ Software Compatibility and MIDI Control
With more of today’s DJs utilizing different DJ software for their performances, the CDJ-400 is also equipped with a PC mode. In this mode, the CDJ-400 is a native controller for software such as Pioneer DJS2 computer software and SERATO® Scratch LIVE3. For example, the movement of the pitch slider on the CDJ-400 can control the pitch slider on the computer software and no timecode CD is required for audio control. The player can also act as a MIDI controller where the user can assign virtually every button on the player to trigger functions of various DJ software programs.

World’s First Scratch Jog Effect
A highlight and an advancement of the CDJ-400 is its scratching capability. In addition to traditional “vinyl” mode scratching, Pioneer implemented the World’s First Scratch Jog Effect. Three highlighted buttons, each assigned to a special effect, Bubble, Trans and Wah, creates unique scratching sound effects that can be enabled by the DJ on the fly. A “hold” button was also added to retain the different effects throughout the session or until its release, which can also be triggered at any point of play.

Additional features in the CDJ-400 include:

• Digital Loop functions: A variety of loops can be created for additional audio effects
o Beat Loop: Automatically creates four beat loop based on the beats per minute (BPM) of music currently being played
o Loop Divide: Rhythmically divides the loop in halves to create different patterns
o Hot Loop: Restarts the loop seamlessly from its entry without interruption of the music
• Digital Jog Break: In CD mode the CDJ-400 contains three effects, Jet, Roll and Wah, which further enhances the audio by simply rotating the jog dial. The same buttons for the Scratch Jog Effect are assigned to the Digital Jog Break which are accessible at any point of play
• Tempo Control: Four tempo modes, ±6%, ±10%, ±16% and WIDE4, provide additional speed control with a resolution of 0.02% in the 6% range
• Cue/Loop Points: Up to 10 cue/loop points per disc, for up to 920 discs can be stored in memory
• Jog Indicator: A break in the red halo illumination around the jog wheel provides instantaneous feedback to the DJ
• Customizable Jog Wheel: The top of the jog wheel can be removed enabling the user to add their own customized image
• Digital Output: A digital output is available for a direct connection for clearer sound to a connected mixer
• Resume Function: The function takes effect if a CD is ejected accidentally. Once the DJ re-inserts the disc, it automatically starts playing from exactly the point where it stopped

TIESTO@PD ELEMENT OF LIFE

first of all for those people who didnt get a chance to go to the event you just missed the biggest event in malaysia since tiesto Pit Party even that event cant beat PD Element Of Life. This event compose of three element - Sea, Sun, And Sand the three element that are needed in an event. But skip the lecture about 101 how to organize an event right?

We'll start based on tiesto 9-5-2008;

For me tiesto on the first day aint that blast cause he's like tryin to see how we, us malaysian move to his songs. For the first set of his mix he use a lot of new songs from his upcoming album one that some of us neva heard-off but then we chill listen to the music moved to the music skip that i wanna talk about the second set this is the fun comes in...For the second set tiesto used all of his most TOP HITS song, such as TRAFFIC,LETHAL INDUSTRY(RICHARD DURAND MIX),PIRATES, AND MANY MORE...But the still the best song for the night is still ELEMENT OF LIFE wouldnt u all agree wif me?? for the last set of the night he use some old song from his previous album n other djs album... that night was the best experience for me cause where can you find an event that consume of cool breeze of beach air when your partying??please tell me...cause that was my first experience of cool breeze of fresh air from the sea. Me and the group headed back to our apartment like 2.30 or so cause wanna avoid the road block or any authorities. For the aftaparty was a blast it stated like 3 or 4 oclock like that in finish at 7 in the morning. The most best thing was, we were partying and there was the sunrise OMG..

Here are some picture from the party






For 10-5-2008

For the second day is just pretty much the same but there were some problem at the entry gate. pretty much the event havnt thought of the second day would be flooded wif people from around the asia for the event. So when they re-open the gate they had many problem such as people from the 1st day wanna do a re-entry its hard because new comer and old comer collide in the same row and space..supposedly for me i would open another gate for those who are new comers, then i would be crowded. Then another problem was the body check haiyo!!!!!~~~ they tighten the security because in the first day approximately 500 people got caught because overdose on Ecstasy for me i would agree on the police for catching this kind of people cause they can ruined ur day by vomiting on u or make ur life more burden to take care of them all those kind of sort thing can burden u on an event, think about it. So for the body check they let 10 people for each time of body check some people got to take off their shoe jus to do the body check WTF is that ur just making it more worse and late. People are getting high and more high by hearing songs from cosmic gate...BUT FOR FAR MOST EXTREME IS THE LAST SONG FOR TIESTO IS *ADVANCED* BY MARCEL WOOD

So as far am i concern this event was a blast..so please do comment...
