Browser tree : While pressing the [BACK] button (C), turn the rotary selector (D) to your desired selection, and press the selector to choose the selection.

Browser list : Turn the rotary selector (D) to your desired selection. Press the selector to choose the selection.

When you use such functions as scratch and pitch bend, the sound volume and play speed increments will be different from when run on a standalone CDJ-850.

The operation of Multi Player LED indicators (ON, OFF) and the contents of the main unit’s console display are not linked with the MIDI control.

You can change the assignment of any Multi Player button to a corresponding TRAKTOR PRO/PRO 2 function by modifying the mapping. For details, refer to the TRAKTOR PRO/PRO 2 instruction manual.

If other Pioneer CDJ player models or other products are connected to a computer with a USB cable to be used together with the CDJ-850, the MIDI channel for these other models should be set to Channel 5 or higher because the MIDI mapping file uses MIDI channels 1 – 4. For details on how to configure the MIDI channels, see the instruction manual for the respective model.
