It's one of our top-selling CD DJ Decks, and with good reason. The Numark NDX800 offers blue-collar DJs a wealth of professional features, including the ability to play from multiple digital music formats and control DJ software, but at a barrier-breaking price-point. Numark has long had a rep for producing high-quality gear that more musicians can afford, and the NDX800 is a perfect example of that credo. This deck gives aspiring and established DJs alike access to effects, looping and sampling, scratch techniques, and more, all for under $400.
Play Tracks From Any Source, Including Your Computer
Long gone are the days when every artist released their music on one format. The modern DJ may not juggle vinyl anymore, but he or she still needs to juggle between multiple digital music formats. That's why the Numark NDX800 offers support for so many different media, from standard Audio CDs to Data CD-Rs to digital audio files on USB flash drives. A rotary controller helps you navigate through available tracks on a given storage device, and the large LCD screen provides information like Beats Per Minute (BPM) and ID3 metadata to make track selection an even faster endeavor. You can even use the NDX800's high-resolution jog wheel to scratch files right on your computer. Simply hook the deck up to your laptop via USB and you've got full MIDI-enabled control over just about any DJ software on the market.
Scratch-Worthy Platter, Gig-Worthy FX
Of course, there are plenty of consumer music players that support multiple formats, but what makes a CD Deck a CD DJ Deck is its platter. Emulating a turntable, the NDX800's control platter is a generous 7 inches in diameter and sensitive enough for fancy scratch moves of surgical precision. An illuminated ring around the platter shows off an LED position marker, a feature any DJ who's ever taped a reference point on a vinyl disc will appreciate. Much like on an old school turntable, you can adjust the sensitivity of the platter to suit your particular scratching style. Much unlike an old school turntable, the NDX800 features a shock protected CD drive that keeps the music from skipping even when the club gets crazy. In addition to the effects you make with your hands, the Numark NDX800 has some built-in effects made with 1's and 0's. Chop, echo, filter, flanger, pan, and phaser are all at your disposal, and all are time-synchable to the BPM of whatever track is being played.
All You Need For Live Remixing
The NDX800 detects BPM from tracks automatically, though the BPM can also be entered manually. Once your BPM is locked in, a whole world of live remixing tools is at your disposal and designed for foolproof use. For seamless cutting from track to track the NDX800 offers adjustable pitch slider ranges, as well as a Key lock feature that changes BPM without changing pitch. Once you've got your tracks aligned, start creating mayhem with the onboard looper and sampling functions. Grab a bar and loop it as long as you want, then use a second NDX800 and mixer to scratch over it or create live mash-ups. You can adjust the loop-out point on the fly for fine tuning or crazy granular effects. Numark's unique bleep/reverse effects let you manipulate buffered audio for dual-deck-like effects using a single NDX800, and five cue/stutter points allow for powerful slicing and sampler-like triggering of sections of a track. The NDX800 has plenty of tools to make a track your own.
Two NDX800's can be linked and synced for a powerful DJ rig, but even a single Numark NDX800 gives savvy DJs impressive remix power and professional functionality at a price that's can't be beat.

Product Description
The Numark NDX800 is a high-performance control for DJs who blend different kinds of music sources. Whether your music is on CDs, MP3 CDs, USB flash drives, or your computer, you can play and manipulate it with NDX800. This digital deck has the feel and layout you're used to, with a twist of Numark innovation.
Flexible Formats
NDX800 has a large touch-sensitive platter for controlling, cueing, and scratching your music. NDX800's smooth, fast, reliable, slot-loading drive works with both CDs and MP3 CDs. You can also connect a USB flash drive for access to thousands of MP3s without taking a computer or CDs to the gig.
But this advanced deck isn't just an MP3/CD player - you can also use it to control software. Just connect NDX800 to your Mac or PC with a single USB cable and you're seamlessly controlling the music on your computer. MIDI communication enables you to easily map virtually any DJ software for direct connection from your fingers to software.
Dynamic Deck
NDX800 has an advanced platter that is touch-sensitive for superb accuracy and smooth control of tracks on discs, flash drives, and software. The big, seven-inch platter is surrounded by an illuminated ring that acts as a position display, just like putting tape on vinyl. The platter's touch sensitivity is adjustable so you can optimize its performance for the way you like it.
You'll appreciate NDX800's smooth, quick, slot-loading disc action. The deck has our Anti-Shock(TM) electronically buffered skip protection to keep the music playing reliably when the floor get packed. You can also adjust NDX800 to perform just like vinyl on turntables thanks to start and stop-time controls.
The deck has Auto Cue, Instant Start, and Stutter Start for quickly and easily playing the track the way you like. Track selection is a breeze with a rotary control, and you can play back tracks in single, continuous, program, and shuffle modes. Fader Start enables NDX800 to start playing the track you have cued up when you move the crossfader on a compatible mixer for effortless transitions.
FX Flavor
On top of playing all kinds of music media, NDX800 enables you to add flavor to your performances with integrated, beat-synced DSP effects that include chop, echo, filter, flanger, pan, and phaser. Each is completely adjustable and a dedicated wet-dry fader controls them all.
Pitch Power
NDX800 contains a set of beat and pitch tools that will help you with beat matching and harmonic mixing. Start playing a track and NDX800 automatically analyzes its BPM (tempo), and displays it on screen. There's also a Tap tempo button for manual BPM entry. You can alter the track's BPM by +/-6, 12, 25, and 100% using the pitch fader. For each of those ranges, you can also engage Key Lock, which holds the pitch of the track while you independently manipulate its BPM. There's also a set of pitch-bend buttons on each track for quick tweaks and you can adjust pitch in half steps (semitones).
Real Time Remixing
NDX800 gives you a complete range of remixing tools for on-the-fly creativity. NDX800 has an internal sampler with overlay and reverse settings so you can easily grab samples while you work and trigger them on the three sample/hot cue trigger pads whenever you want. NDX800 also has seamless looping on a set of easy-to-understand controls including adjustable loop-out point. Numark's familiar Bleep/Reverse gives you the ability to keep time moving forward while you cut or reverse the track. Five stutter starts and cue point memory storage round out this powerful deck's remix capabilities.
Vivid View
NDX800 features a large, backlit display for keeping tabs on the deck even in poorly lit conditions. You can monitor BPM, CD and MP3 text ID3 tags, navigate folders, and keep an eye on effect status on this big, bright screen.
NDX800 is the powerful, versatile deck for playing and controlling all kinds of music media. Whether you play parties, clubs, events, or in a group, NDX800 gives you the feel you like, the look a professional demands, and the utility of built-in effects, remixing, looping, and sampling. Pair a couple of NDX800s with your favorite Numark mixer and start making some hips move.
