Features

The CDJ-1000MK3 compact disc player is designed for use by DJs providing all the functions and performance required in disco clubs while offering performance, sound quality and functional- ity superior to any analog player.

JOG DIAL

The large 206 mm diameter jog dial enables better handling than an analog turntable.

¶PITCH BEND

This function changes the music tempo depending on direction of jog dial rotation and speed of movement.

¶SCRATCH PLAY

In the VINYL mode when the surface of the jog dial is pressed playback is discontinued and then continues according to the direction and speed the dial is rotated. You can also adjust the startup when the jog dial is touched and released to create new DJ techniques.

¶FRAME SEARCH

Moves the disc from pause position in frame increments (1/75 sec) when the jog dial is rotated in pause mode.

¶SUPER FAST SEARCH

Rotate the jog dial while holding depressed the SEARCH button, TRACK SEARCH button, or FOLDER SEARCH button. When this is done, search will be performed faster than the normal search, track search, or folder search operations.

¶JOG ADJUST (Jog Sensitivity Adjustment)

This function allows you to adjust the felt resistance when rotat- ing the jog dial.

ON JOG DISPLAY

The center of the jog dial displays information regarding disc sta- tus, cue point position, sound memory status, jog dial touch- detection, and VINYL mode.

WAVE DISPLAY

This display makes it possible to find the breakpoint between tracks in advance and use it as mix point or end point in the same way as you can on an analog record by checking the posi- tion of the needle in the groove.

CUE/LOOP MEMORY

This unit is equipped with a function allowing cue points and loop points for individual discs to be recorded on SD memory cards or MultiMedia Cards (MMC); the recorded data can then be called up when playing the respective disc.

HOT CUE

UP to three hot cue points (A, B, C) can be preset, thus allowing playback to be performed instantly from either of those points. The hot cue function can be used to record not only cue points, but loop points as well.

¶TEMPO CONTROL RANGE

The maximum variable range can be set to four variable ranges: ±6 %, ±10 %, ±16 % and WIDE to facilitate adjustment.

¶TEMPO CONTROL RESET

Resets the tempo to 0 % regardless of slider position.

¶MASTER TEMPO

Changes music tempo without changing pitch.

CUE

¶BACK CUE

After storing the cue point in memory, press the CUE button while playing the unit to go back to the cue point and start over.

¶AUTO CUE

Auto cue automatically locates the song’s start point even if it differs from the track’s frame, allowing the player to start in- stantly at a press of the PLAY button.

¶CUE POINT SAMPLER

The sound from the memorized cue point can be reproduced by one touch, which can be used as the start point check and the sampler.

REAL TIME SEAMLESS LOOP

This function simplifies setting and releasing loops. This func- tion lets you set a loop while you are playing a track. A loop can also be set at the end of the track so that the track does not stop. In addition, an ADJUST mode has been added to enable one-touch adjustments to Loop-in and Loop-out points and facili- tate loop operation.

RELOOP

Allows you to replay a loop any number of times.

Press the RELOOP button after releasing loop play to return to the loop start point. Clever use of on and off in combination with the rhythm make it possible to create new sound effects.

PLAYING ADDRESS

This bar graph provides a visual representation of track playback progress that enables you to see current playback position just like you can on an analog record by checking needle position. The length of the bar shows current position and a flashing bar provides advance notice of track end.

SLOT IN

Discs are loaded directly without opening doors or trays, making track selection that much faster.

FADER START

When a Pioneer DJ mixer (sold separately) is connected, the mixer’s fader operation can be used to perform quick start and back cue.

REVERSE PLAY

Set the DIRECTION switch to its forward position ([REV] posi- tion) to play the music backwards.

TEMPO CONTROL

100 mm high-precision slider coupled with a 0.02 % incre- ment digital display (within a ±6 % range) allows exact control of speed to make tempo adjustments easy and accurate.

MULTI READ

Allows playback of CD-R, CD-RW discs (recorded in music CD or MP3 format). (Note that some discs may not play properly due to characteristics of the individual disc, recorder, or disc soiling and scratches.)

MP3 DJ PLAY

MP3 files recorded on CD-ROM can be played with DJ func- tions.
