A built-in 3-band isolator is capable of producing level control of -infinity dB to +6 dB on each band. A 2-system, 3-type SEND/RETURN (PRE INSERT/POST INSERT/AUX) is provided to allow multiple connection variations with external devices, such as effectors and samplers, thus widening the range of DJ play potential. The fader curve adjust allows adjustment not only of the cross fader curve (as on former models), but also of the channel fader curve. Both faders functions can be adjusted within 17 steps so that DJs can customize the settings to their own preferred response. The main fader volume control knob can be changed to a rotary knob for delicate sound volume control when mixing. An optional part (DJC-1000RV) is required to make this change, which can be completed in any of Pioneer's authorized service centers.
Using digital input connectors supporting multiple sampling rates (44.1/48/96 kHz), a system can be built in which no sound quality degradation occurs when connecting to external digital devices. A DIGITAL OUT connector with a 24-bit/96 kHz sampling rate is provided, facilitating recording at studios and other situations demanding high sound quality. Supports only linear PCM.
MIDI signals can be output to allow MIDI control of external devices. Multiple functions can be performed by using digital link cables to connect other PIONEER DJ CD players, DJ effectors and AV mixers. When connected to a visual mixer using the MIDI output, you can control the crossfade of the video mixer simply by cross fading the audio on the DJM-1000.
