If you have ever had to wait in line for a single track on a CD to play during a performance, you will be grateful for this CD player. Why? there are several. In my application, I run a dance studio where routines are practiced and showcase dances are performed using the CD player. Even if you're not a DJ, the following are some justifications as to why this is essential for assisting live performance:1. Pressing the front control will switch to the "single play" option. Your track ends when it is finished. Sounds simple and possibly unneeded, no? How many times have you, (be honest here) thought you had halted the following track during a performance?2. A "Cue" button lets you lock in the tune of your choice. When you click "Play," the video begins. This two-step process prevents your track from being amplified too soon. If this has already occurred to you, there's no need to feel ashamed. We all engage in it. With this device, it won't take place.3. When playing, it won't eject. It must be stopped. I won't use the word premature in a joke here, but you've probably already uttered it in your brain.4. If you utilize the USB drive, which I strongly advise you to do, it will look for MP3 music and allow you to navigate through them to choose the one you want. The title and other ID3 data will be displayed. The Cue and Play button is used to play it, as previously said.5. Using one of the buttons on the front panel, you can alternate between the CD and USB.Though the option to make a playlist is intriguing, this includes a ton of DJ capabilities that I'll probably never use. When practicing a dance routine, having the dial's forward and backward motion capabilities is useful. Setting a marker and moving right to it makes it simple to line up for a practice point. I got one for my church since I was so amazed.

For the past three years that I've been DJing, I've always used either my turntables or a fully digital setup. I've been debating getting a set of CDJs. I've tried a couple Denon CDJ models, primarily the DN-S1000 and DN-S1200. This apparatus is a fantastically simplified version of them. Although it has few controls, it works well. In terms of size, responsiveness, and solidity when spinning, the platter is adequate. The fader is decent; it's neither the worst nor the greatest. Actually, the effects are quite good. Onboard effect units on low-end gear don't really live up to my expectations, but they are still functional. Not a lot of time has been available for me to experiment with the looping functions.The only issues I have are minor ones. A USB port for an external HDD or USB stick would be nice. Although I am aware that this feature is typically only found on more expensive models, if it had one, it would have met all of my criteria. The CD loader is a little strange in that it occasionally doesn't grab something even though you believe it should.Overall, you won't find anything with 1/5 the value, build quality, or features for anything near to this price. Great CDJs are made by Denon. Although they are not pioneers, they accomplish everything a beginner could hope for and then some. If you're just starting out as a DJ, I highly recommend these. A pair of them and a 2-channel mixer may be purchased for a lot less money than comparable products like the NS7/6 or Traktor Kontrol S4/2.

This device is fantastic. Because the disc loads rapidly, I like this design better than trays. It is low profile and small. The item is sturdy overall, and the sound quality is good. I tried a number of different rival devices but returned them. This is the one I prefer most. Additionally, the additional USB and Aux connections are reasonably priced, which is a good feature. The display is a little crowded and challenging to read, and there are just a few connection outputs (no digital). After just one song, the text display turns off. Despite the fact that these problems occasionally potentially be a deal-breaker, I discovered that overall they weren't a problem at all given how much I value the unit. Despite the fact that I use it at home due to its low profile, this is a business unit, thus I assume there are several reasons why it differs from home units. I've never been happier.

Ok. Let me be clear that I am not a DJ and did not buy this to use as a DJ or for music mixing. I got it so I could control the CDs' tempo while taking and teaching ballet classes. It's ideal. All of my CDs have been successfully read by it, and the pitch control is simple to use. Yes, it does affect how the music sounds; music played at a slower tempo has a somewhat deeper tone than music played at a faster tempo. Not Bothered.

About five years ago, I started "DJing." I've worked with Pioneer CDJ-100-900s, Vinyl Technics, Denon, Numark, Stanton, etc. In order to determine if I could get by while saving for two Pioneer CDJ-850s, I bought these. Since I previously owned a pioneer unit, I really wanted it to have a layout and feel comparable to that. I also didn't want to play with equipment that was organized like a children's game. I felt like I was taking a bit of a chance because the reviews for them were not particularly detailed, so I initially got only ONE. Everything I had hoped for at this price is above and beyond, and I was VERY satisfied. The Play and Cue buttons are comparable to Pioneers; they are less exact but still have the expected clicky, fast press. Additionally, the jog wheel and pitch fader have excellent build quality, with the jog wheel being made of springy plastic and rotating similarly to the CDJ800. The jog search functions as intended. For the pitch, the fader is really tight and smooth. I also purchased these because I adore the USB function, which reads a 500GB harddrive more quickly than a Pioneer CDJ400 I previously used. The speed at which I could maneuver honestly really shocked me. If your mp3s are properly tagged, it will also read the BPM from that, saving you from having to "tap" to quickly see what you're working with. Just tap in and out to use the loop function, which does "smooth" a little if you are off. In all honesty, everything is pretty spot on.The pitch and cueing are the only serious drawbacks. Only.1% of the pitch is accurate, and it appears to stay there. 1%. The player won't move between, in other words. Even if the fader is moved, the percentage stays the same at 1% and.2%. Imagine them as stair steps; you can only be on one or the other. Which, to be honest, with that in mind, you can still correctly pitch bend with the jog wheel. In other words, you can still mix for 2-3 minutes without skipping a beat, but you can't just "stick it" with these and let it ride, at least not if you're mixing into a vinyl set or something similar. You will need to adjust a lot of your cue points in order to obtain that perfect start because the cue does not "auto cue" like Pioneer or other tables. However, it is rather simple to manually adjust it using the jog wheel, so it is only a minor inconvenience. You are wasting your time if you purchase this table with the intention of "Scratching," as it is NOT A SCRATCH TABLE. It likely has a 5-second buffer that can perform backspins or brief scratches, but it won't maintain a certain point long enough to perform a "Q-Bert" maneuver on something. Another drawback is that the player "resets" each time it is turned off, meaning that your prior settings for the pitch, jog function, and BPM display must all be made again when the table is switched on. Most of the drawbacks are simply things that I've grown accustomed to from using expensive equipment.Therefore, this is perhaps the CHEAPEST table I have used to simulate a professional table like Pioneers. Everything feels fairly similar, the layout is extremely similar, and there aren't a lot of extras you won't need until you get proficient at mixing. This is really all you could ask for if you are just starting to spin Tech House, Dnb, etc. because otherwise you will just be "blending." Or, if you're simply unable to spend more than $1,000 on your gear right now. When the time comes to move on, it is exactly what you need in a manner that you can feel at ease with.
