TH-cam is the best! 17 years later and this video is still helpful. I had an old Denon dual cd player and the drive belts deteriorated, which is common from old age. Tried to repair them and just gave up. Found 2 used CDJ1000MK3's and decided to purchase them just for home use to play cd's. This video was extremely helpful.
I dont mean to be so off topic but does someone know of a method to get back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly lost the account password. I would love any help you can offer me
Yes they are expensive but they are awesome machines and anyone who buys one or two will not regret. I would highly recomend if you were thinking about it do so. I love mine, I have wanted them since the firt come out and now are my prized possessions.
Its been about a year since I've touched one of these things ("cough"SERATO) and I wanna thank you for the brush up friend...I'm spinning a rave tonight so this is gonna help. Kinda tired of having to switch laptops w people using SERATO.
I dont care what music is better or worse, I want technology that does as i tell it, this video helps me to do just that, a few small mysteries explained to me just now, thanks very much. Alla these negative comments you can disregard, I appreciate the time and effort taken to help others. Cheers DJ Proton
latops are always good for fileserving and song searching. it's always easier to bring a laptop then a whole case full of cds or a handful of thumbdrives.
This is a BRILLIANT quick look at the features of the deck. The hand signals help even amateurs like myself see what you're demonstrating. We have two of these at the club where I work; I never knew about most of the functions! Off to go play with them now! :-D
on cdk 1000s there is a similiar graphic i think but mostly you just have to listen through head phones and find the spot on the track, cue it, then mix it in
@gurke: i also have a Notebook setup, but i prefer to mix with the CDJ's, cause i dont want do take so much equipment around, and dont want to connect all the wires & Stuff on stage! moreover theres often no place on stage for to much equipment! ok, you have probably not so much features like live or traktor, but you have less stress!
i totally agree. virtual dj is a really cool program, however you def need turntables. now add turntables with a timecoded cd and virtual dj is def an option. Altough i personally like traktor scratch a lot better.
@friendofCHAKA depends on if your serious about becoming fluent in the dj market or if your a hobbyist dj. If you never intend to play in a pro club then learning on pioneer products is senseless. But if you aspire to play in clubs on the circuit someday then it would be a worthwhile investment as no real club invests in anything outside of Pioneer or Technics.
i suggest you check that AUTOCUE IS ON. if it is off... then you must manually set cue points. if this is happening to both of your decks.. then this problem is more likely to be a settings issue rather than firmware or hardware.
you could say that!! but here in australia you cannot buy em new for that much, and i wasnt willing to buy them from overseas becaus eof shipping costs and incase something happens to it!!
The DJM800 actually has 4 channels and who knows... some DJ's like to use both vinyl and cds, some can use inputs at once, might be cool to have a sampler or something... you know... something just a little more than just 2 channels...
@DJMKN93 sometime i use it to bring in certain sounds from a song and incorperate it into the other as a teaser, or when i look for a song i just hold it down for a few sec to help with my beat matching
I've got a shot at this really high end club down here in India, but i've never used these before. I have no idea what to do, cause i don't wanna blow it.
You see?Other people dont even search for offers or prices!The price is great for the US but for importing to europe then there are shipping and customs costs.Not to mention the warranty.However Pioneer offer the best manufacture's warranty which is valid international.Not like my Denon Dns 3500 that i have to ship back to the US and if a problem is found they ship me a new one.Anyway Pioneer is a professional Dj Equipment Company..A+
@nachoisone A DJ can do it all by hiself! Don't worry and over-react. (: The only difrence is that the DJ normally put his loop, cue points, hot cue points etc by hiself DURING the mix. That makes it less conversation with the crowd. And less attention at the DJ. Nowadays people want a DJ who preform an amazing set and got the conversation with the crowd. Normally when you have to put every loop and point by yourself during the mix it would take times to do it. Now you just pump up the crowd
@nachoisone Yeah you can play with CD books thats not the problem. But normally you got your own laptop with you for the organizing of everything. I don't tell your music is on it but I do tell that thats the organizing part of your set up to make it straight. (:
@luckytaco97 @luckytaco97 I was originally referring to software such as serato and defending the fact that you do NOT nee to use a Laptop to DJ. Also for your information the CDJ 2000 uses thumbdrives. other wise WTF was Pete Tong doing with a thumbdrive in a CDJ 2000 during the ID fest? I personally use CDs. Infact my entire set up is full analog with use of NO computer. i was making a point that the "Modern DJ" does not NEED to have a laptop in order to spin.
@buffon007police Actually I play all my gigs with 3-4 books full of CDs also the CDJs allow for USB and thumbdrive so you can plug in your hard drive eliminating the usage of laptops :)
i am a total noob, broke, not a dj and jealous. I've been messing around with VirtualDj and bought a Hercules Mk2 controller so i could do more, and like to do play with it. Getting my hands on 2 CDJs is just a no-go. DOn't have the money for it.
@buffon007police I actually do consider myself to be a "modern" DJ I produce my own tracks (all currently a w.i.p.) I burn them on CD and spin. The information i have written down is simple to take glance and move onwards. I know many DJs who don't use laptops. Setting loops and cue points is something i rarely do. I don't know many Goa DJs that do loops. Perhaps if i spun house that could be a different story. Even so I'd lose the laptop.
Good job on the tutorial man. I still want some CDJ-1000mk2's (even though they're discontinued), because I have Serato Scratch Live, and there's no reason for buying the .mp3 function since I won't be using it, although I'd like to have the jog adjust.
@buffon007police Actually I just show up to my gigs with the CDs and leave the laptop at home. As far as sets go i vibe off the crowd. The only thing i have set in my actual set is the first song I play then build off from there. As far as organization i have written on the CDs as well as printed Track #, Song, Artist, BPM. :)
@friendofCHAKA I 100% agree with you, anybody who buys this for a bedroom set-up is crazy. If you can get gigs and buying a pair will help you make money in the long run than its ok.
Sir, I've just watched your exploration video's on both the DJM 600 and the CDJ 1000 MKIII's, and it's given me a brilliant insight as to what these are really capable of. Excellent stuff!
i have a numark omni control and i run virtual dj pro version 6. i wan to know if i can use the cdj-1000 as my turntables and the omni control as the mixer
cdj is king but for an affordable option go with a denon dns3500 or for a pc go serato ssl and a denon dnhd2500/4500 midi, IMHO CD's are just so like yesterdy!
Pls help me with a Tech Issue i have - i use have no probs.all of above functions are atvestax CDR07's: when playing MP3 cd's you lose the ability to set Cue-points,Stutter start,track count down, manually search through a track. All u can do is rely on it auto-cuing to the nrst beat, andplay the track through to the end, problem being is you have no 'track countdown' to judge how long the track is see nxt post............
I'm assuming this is because a lot of DJ's don't think using computer software is really DJing - which is actually correct. They can do what they like but virtual DJing is not as good as CDJ.

Wow...., what an awesome bit of kit.
I've allways been a vinyl junkie but I need two of these in my life!
I dont mean to be so off topic but does someone know of a method to get back into an Instagram account??
I stupidly lost the account password. I would love any help you can offer me
@Joseph Lewis instablaster :)
Yes they are expensive but they are awesome machines and anyone who buys one or two will not regret. I would highly recomend if you were thinking about it do so. I love mine, I have wanted them since the firt come out and now are my prized possessions.
Wow!! great job showing how to use these buttons on this cdj,thanks again 👍👍
Its been about a year since I've touched one of these things ("cough"SERATO) and I wanna thank you for the brush up friend...I'm spinning a rave tonight so this is gonna help. Kinda tired of having to switch laptops w people using SERATO.
Yea great video man, your work is highly respected in my books
I dont care what music is better or worse, I want technology that does as i tell it, this video helps me to do just that, a few small mysteries explained to me just now, thanks very much.
Alla these negative comments you can disregard,
I appreciate the time and effort taken to help others.

people.... this toys are the best ones a DJ can have... and the one who has one, he should thank God...
latops are always good for fileserving and song searching.
it's always easier to bring a laptop then a whole case full of cds or a handful of thumbdrives.
thats simply the ultimate dj tool.and the most reliable of them all :)
great tutorial, coming from technics all i needed to learn was how to fine tune using the jog dial amazing, thanks!
This is a BRILLIANT quick look at the features of the deck. The hand signals help even amateurs like myself see what you're demonstrating. We have two of these at the club where I work; I never knew about most of the functions! Off to go play with them now! :-D
That last feature was BOMB!
on cdk 1000s there is a similiar graphic i think but mostly you just have to listen through head phones and find the spot on the track, cue it, then mix it in
@gurke:
i also have a Notebook setup, but i prefer to mix with the CDJ's, cause i dont want do take so much equipment around, and dont want to connect all the wires & Stuff on stage!
moreover theres often no place on stage for to much equipment!
ok, you have probably not so much features like live or traktor, but you have less stress!
about five grand... and that's with the Road Ready cases included too.
The first tune is not Jesse garcia... It is Elektrochemie - Mucky Star (original mix). Great tune!!!
i totally agree. virtual dj is a really cool program, however you def need turntables. now add turntables with a timecoded cd and virtual dj is def an option. Altough i personally like traktor scratch a lot better.
The 2 CDJ mark 3's come at about £1,000/$1,603 and a good mixer can be anywhere from £1,500/$2,404 to around £3,000/$4,809
yeh i cant wait to get mine, time flies when ur having fun :-)

5 stars for u..good movie. Thanks
@Narkatta
Word. The only think that can hurt a MK5 is unreasonable record prices.
you are right, i was watching the ebay too.i'll buy my gear there.its a lot cheaper then in any other online shop
@ djmolaudi - The track is called survive - by Jesse Garcia
Nice video. it helped me better to acquaint oneself with my new purchase. THANKS
For me, the American Audio Radius 1000 is one of those (even including on-board effects!)
i suggest you check that AUTOCUE IS ON.
if it is off... then you must manually set cue points.
if this is happening to both of your decks.. then this problem is more likely to be a settings issue rather than firmware or hardware.
@sirin555 3 hot cues, hit "record" below the 3 buttons to set live hot cue points on the fly
i'm not a dj or anything, but i think the display int he center of the disc is super cool
you could say that!! but here in australia you cannot buy em new for that much, and i wasnt willing to buy them from overseas becaus eof shipping costs and incase something happens to it!!
not a sampler as such but u can use it to do real time loops, takes a little practice but its a sick feature
The DJM800 actually has 4 channels and who knows... some DJ's like to use both vinyl and cds, some can use inputs at once, might be cool to have a sampler or something... you know... something just a little more than just 2 channels...
ya it does and it counts the beats so its really easy to mix plus i got one
Worth Every penny especially after they dropped in price after cdj2000
a very good review of this product
Thank you SOOOOOOOOOO much !!!!!!!!!!!!
@DJMKN93 sometime i use it to bring in certain sounds from a song and incorperate it into the other as a teaser, or when i look for a song i just hold it down for a few sec to help with my beat matching
I've got a shot at this really high end club down here in India, but i've never used these before. I have no idea what to do, cause i don't wanna blow it.
i got lucky with buying these 2000 for both of em secon hand though and still in mint condition!!

@XxEsQxX
Very true definitely agreed with you...expensive gear wont make a dj good or better than other dj's so people stop hating on other dj's.
Cool vid! thanks for uploading!
Thinking about buying a used one!
I like the 3 cue pointes more then the autobeatloop function of the 800 and 900.
@nachoisone A DJ can do it all by hiself! Don't worry and over-react. (: The only difrence is that the DJ normally put his loop, cue points, hot cue points etc by hiself DURING the mix.

thumbs up to the video that made you finally go buy it

by turning the two knobs on the upper right to the left
@SeismicReptile 1000 mk3, CDJ 900 has ready loops 1/2 1/4 1/8 1/16.
thank you...... it is really clear and easy... bye good video
best cdj player ever.
With two of those, I would mix anything!!
Good job on the tutorial man. I still want some CDJ-1000mk2's (even though they're discontinued), because I have Serato Scratch Live, and there's no reason for buying the .mp3 function since I won't be using it, although I'd like to have the jog adjust.

@marquardt0192 u need the tunes to be at 320kbps preferably to get the best sound quality
Just paid 550. For pair of cdj1000mk3s and a djm800
@friendofCHAKA
I 100% agree with you, anybody who buys this for a bedroom set-up is crazy. If you can get gigs and buying a pair will help you make money in the long run than its ok.
great video
sorry, cut and paste messed up...first line of message was meant to say i use vestax CDR 07's and when playing MP3 CD's........
thanx!
Sir, I've just watched your exploration video's on both the DJM 600 and the CDJ 1000 MKIII's, and it's given me a brilliant insight as to what these are really capable of.
Excellent stuff!
@MultiTylertv "software is for midi controllers" I need that on a T-shirt
Man that was the funniest thing I have read in a long time.
thanks for the demo - very useful
I thort they were stoping the CDJ 1000's and moving on with the DVJ and DVX??
a MK4 would be awsome tho I agree with martyn3200
Brilliant Video, Thanks, I'm gonna get these bad boys on finance!
i need sum now !!!!!!! shame theyre a couple ov grand for the full set :(
the mk2 is an older model and does not have some of the features of the mk3
oh ok, thx dude was jst wonderin :) im setting up a new setup thats why
only 2 decks, but for a mixer you can find a great deal on ebay.
i have a numark omni control and i run virtual dj pro version 6. i wan to know if i can use the cdj-1000 as my turntables and the omni control as the mixer
cdj is king but for an affordable option go with a denon dns3500 or for a pc go serato ssl and a denon dnhd2500/4500 midi, IMHO CD's are just so like yesterdy!
IS this available in India??how much would it cost here?Thanks

PIONEER ROCKS!!!!!!!!

KaseMade nowadays you can get them that price yes

Pls help me with a Tech Issue i have - i use have no probs.all of above functions are atvestax CDR07's: when playing MP3 cd's you lose the ability to set Cue-points,Stutter start,track count down, manually search through a track. All u can do is rely on it auto-cuing to the nrst beat, andplay the track through to the end, problem being is you have no 'track countdown' to judge how long the track is
see nxt post............
The 900's came 10 years later than the 1000's
Great man...thanks!
Wow dude nice demonstration! Totally getting these. Do you have to have the pair or can you have just one?
you can switch between cd and vinyl
The Best!
What Mode Dose The CdJ need to be set on when Using Traktor Scratch Pro, CD Or Vinly mode?
YOU FORGOT TO SHOW US THE Reverse Play FEATURE!!!!
I'm assuming this is because a lot of DJ's don't think using computer software is really DJing - which is actually correct. They can do what they like but virtual DJing is not as good as CDJ.
@J4M13F0X you can get them for about 6-800 on ebay
