"XDJ-R1"

I have read many post about this product online and they weren't good comments. Fortunately, I did have any of the problems I've read. The player is great. The only thing is that the instruction to the software is kind of crazy. Pioneer should tell customer that the player only works with a IPAD, IPOD, or IPHONE. Other than that, great product. Had no problem getting the wifi to connect to the unit.

Musical Background:

I've been playing music for 25 years.

Musical Style:

I play some of everything like blues, rap, clean rap, gospel, and R&B.

The XDJ-R1 is great, it plays multi audio and media formats. Using the built-in mixer,DJ software, rekordbox or remotebox is very easy to learn. An array of great features like "auto beat loop, beat fx, hot cue, 4 beat sampler,3 band isolator, beat sync and quantize. The sound card produces excellent sound output with optimum quality and db headroom. The XDJ-R1 is quick and esy to set-up for a gig and a lot of fun to play on, for me the only draw back is THAT IT'S ONLY A 2-CHANNEL/DECK player with a REALLY HIGH $$$ MSRP. I am extremely happy with this purchase thus far/

"Awesome Mixer/Controller"

After using my laptop for many years to DJ live sets i decided to get myself into this millenia and get a controller. The XDJ-R1 was actually my second choice and I'm glad I made it. This unit has been a workhorse for ALL of my Live DJ and On Air Internet Broadcast sessions. Once the unit arrived and I installed the rekordbox and remote box software I was on my way. I'm not a mix DJ, more of the MC type but this unit has all the features I need. The ability to use my flash drives and CD's give me great flexibility. The Aux input is used to bring in music from my ipad and so far I've never missed a request for any music genre. The sound quality is great. I've paired it with my Crown Amp for exceptional performance. The VDJ software was a plus and I've upgraded to the pro version. The firmware upgrade was easy and I've had no problems from this unit. The mic input is ok for what i use, thought the volume was kinda flat. But with some tweaking I was able to find the perfect mix of mic and music to give my audience the entertainment they paid for. Overall I'm loving this unit.

Musical Background:

30+ year Live Dj'ing, Still spin vinyl on occasion. Parties, Family Gatherings, Small Clubs

This unit has worked as advertised once you stall the software updates.The rekordbox program does take awhile to analyze your music library depending on the size of the library. I have also had no issues with the unit as midi controller and Virtual DJ and a basic laptop with no lag or sound issues. I have also played around with the remote feature. It works well. My only problem I had with this is once you add an effect to a track I have to touch the unit in order to take it out of the remote feature. Other than that I would definitely recommend this u it without hesitation. After checking out several different all-in-one controllers. I think I made the right choice for. Thank you ZZounds I could not be happier.

I think I purchased no control over mid 2015-16 the control has been my work hard and the most reliable controller of the four different controllers that I've had the ability CD, USB and MIDI without ever disconnecting is a super plus even though I may be late posting this review I still will give it five and a half Stars it is a true Swiss army knife from Pioneer..... some of my best gigs that I've played have played with the ex DJ R1.....

The pricing is pretty good on this guy. I used a payment plan for 8 months with my ZLX-15p (pair) And i am very happy with both. the mixers layout is very nice. clean and simple. The Effects are really nice. The only thing i haven't done yet is use the Bluetooth or hook it up and use it as a midi. USBs and CDs are both ran very nicely off of this. The limit is easily reached on the mixer though but it is ok. the knobs and buttons are all just like the higher end mixers and cdjs. It is pretty much 2 CDJ-350s and a DJM-400. Which is really nice!

Nice unit that almost delivers. I was a little upset with the fact that it does not record to usb. The description clearly states that it has that capability, but it doesn't. Other than that it does everything as advertised.

I purchased the xdj r1 back in October and when finally got to use rekordbox dj in march found out it was faulty. When Chanel 2 is is down all the way sound still bleeds through. In been in the shop for a month now. Had a gig coming up April 1 was getting worried I wouldn't get system back so I purchased another so I would have a system for gig approaching. And that xdj r1 did the same thing. Unbelievable called the store told they need to take this thing back. They said it was the Dsp board or something.that was replaced still not working no seems to know the problem not even there top engineer.right now not happy with product.yea plays cd fine but not rekordbox.
