CDJ-900
Tabletop Multi Player
Advanced Auto Beat Loop
The CDJ-900 generates an auto beat loop by pressing the 1,2,4, or 8 buttons. Creating
perfect loops that allow DJ’s more time to blend in transitioning music. The CDJ-900 has 10
beat loop options providing DJ’s with a greater level of performance creativity.
Advanced Connectivity
The turntable features a 24-bit/48 kHz sound card and HID and MIDI control compatibility via
USB port. Up to 34 controls on the surface of the player can be used to trigger other devices,
such as DJ effectors and software by way of HID and/or MIDI. The HID controls were imple-
mented into the player for superior interfacing with software, faster communication speed
over MIDI, audio/visual streaming and two-way information on the display. HID enables easy,
precise and native control of DVS systems such as Serato™ Scratch Live, Native Instruments’
Traktor series and MixVibes Cross2 without the need for time-coded discs.
Slip Mode
When activated, Slip Mode silently continues song playback during a loop, reverse or scratch
and continues audible playback at the exact time when the loop, reverse or scratch is ended
creating smoother transitions.
Prepared For Any Performance
Adapting to today’s variety of media formats, the CDJ-900 enables playback of MP3, AAC,
WAV and AIFF audio files from CDs and USB memory devices. A USB port located on top of
the turntable enables users to quickly connect an external
storage device such as a Tonium Pacemaker™ or a hard
drive packed with music files, minimizing the need to bring
a laptop computer to performances.
The CDJ-900 turntable includes rekordbox™, Pioneer’s
proprietary music management software that organizes and
catalogs a DJ’s entire music library. When music files are
imported to rekordbox, the software analyzes each file and
prepares them for use specifically with the CDJ turntable.
Pro DJ Link
Pioneer’s Pro DJ Link enables up to four CDJ-2000/900s to be connected via the Link Port
to share a single music source, whether it is a hard drive, USB and/or SD memory card.
Once linked, users have the ability to quickly find, display and choose the music file from a
connected source through the CDJ’s built-in display and control knobs. A quick turn of the
knob lets users scroll through created files and folders and a push of the knob confirms the
song choice.
