Pioneer DJM-400 2-Channel DJ Mixer with 96K Sampling

Step up to professional DJ mixing. The Pioneer name is widely recognized as the gold-standard in modern DJ performance, and with the new Pioneer DJM-400 2-Channel DJ Mixer anyone who's serious about their craft can experience the quality and professional features that the Pioneer name represents. Not only is the DJM-400 a premium 2-channel DJ mixer, but it sports a 96kHz loop sampler for live remixing and an awesome suite of digital effects to enhance any set.

Start With A Premium Digital Mixer
Pioneer builds every DJM-400 to deliver top-notch audio from gig-to-gig, for years to come. To ensure this kind of quality they make use of only the best components, including reinforced headphone and microphone jacks. The channel faders and crossfader are fast and smooth, geared towards the demanding mix DJ, and feature adjustable curves for a customizable feel. The 24-bit/96kHz digital mix bus delivers superior audio fidelity whether you mix from CDs or vinyl, and the three-band EQ on each channel is wide and musical, with kill-switches on each band for more control over the sound. With two microphone inputs and two microphone outs, the DJM-400 is all the mixer you'll need for the classic deejay-plus-emcee gig. Advanced features like seven-segment LED metering, automatic music volume attenuation when engaging the Talk Over function, and special integration with Pioneer CDJ decks will leave even the most demanding DJ satisfied.

Add In-Line, Beat-Matched Looping And Sampling
Pioneer calls the DJM-400's unique sampling engine an "In-Loop Sampler," and it allows for some amazing live remixing and mash-ups. Because of the DJM-400's digital audio architecture, the looper's beat-matching is flawless, allowing you to grab a four-beat loop seamlessly. The captured phrase is automatically looped and beat-sliced, and played back at the same 24-bit resolution as the incoming audio for completely transparent mixing. Up to five samples and twelve seconds of sample audio can be stored on the DJM-400 for flexible, on-the-fly remixing and one-shot effects. Even if you're a seasoned DJ, the In-Loop Sampler will expand your live mixing skill-set.

Finish With Radical Digital Effects
Want a little icing on this cake? How about seven 24-bit, beat-matching effects? You've put the perfect playlist together, executed every mix-move perfectly, and worked your crowd into a frenzy. Now push them over the top with a choice special effect like a dramatic filter sweep or time-synched flanger or phaser break. Trip 'em out with some well-placed echo or delay effects, or turn heads with the scratch-style roll effect. There's even a bit-crushing Robot effect for getting even the most laid-back crowd's attention. The DJM-400's effects are top-notch, tasty, and most importantly, fun.

The Pioneer DJM-400 packs an impressive feature-set into a compact format to fit any coffin-case, and zZounds offers it at an amazing price to fit into any budget. Experience the difference that Pioneer digital mixing will make to your DJ set. zZounds is an authorized dealer of Pioneer products.

Product Description

The DJM-400; Pioneer's newest entry-level mixer with an all-digital mixing bus (24bit/96kHz) featuring 7 onboard effects, including the all new In-Loop Sampler!

The DJM-400 matches Pioneer's CDJ-200 CD turntable in both function and design, allowing DJs to expand the range of DJing and remixing. Its new symmetrical design is the same size as a CDJ-200 enabling an easy fit in a compact DJ coffin.

World's First In-Loop Sampler
An intelligent 24bit/96kHz sampler automatically detects the tempo of a song during playback, sampling it for a length of 4 beats then loops the sample. Since the sampled sound is in sync with the beat of the tune being played, no matter the tempo, it enables live remixing like never before.

Samples are automatically stretched and compressed to match the beat. The DJM-400 will store five samples onboard for a total of 12 seconds of sample time.

Onboard Effects and Equalization
Onboard effects automatically detect the beats per minute of the music and sync to the beats. The DJM-400 includes seven onboard effects: Delay, Echo, Filter, Flanger,Phaser, Robot and Roll. All effects are processed at 24bits for the highest quality sound. A new Beat Select button allows more intuitive and aggressive DJ playing and remixing.

Each channel has 3-band isolator EQ with full cut capability. The EQ ranges from +9dB to infinity for total control of the sound.

The DJM-400 offers a number of key features for professional DJs, including:
-- The ability to select either of two microphone connections or one stereo line connection

-- A fader start so playback can be started by simply sliding the cross fader or channel fader when connected to a Pioneer CDJ product

-- A peak level meter so the DJ can check audio input levels for each channel or for the master

-- A Talk Over feature that automatically lowers track volume for the DJ to speak over the track
