The Pioneer DJ PLX-CRSS12 is a game changing deck -- the world's first to offer DVS control of digital music via DJ software as well as analog playback of vinyl records, helping artists take their performances to the next level.


DJ Battle: JAM vs JAM on the Pioneer DJ PLX CRSS12 Turntables:


Never worry about needle skipping again when you use the PLX-CRSS12 in DVS mode with Serato DJ Pro or rekordbox. The tone arm free playback means artists can scratch a real analog record as vigorously as they like without fear of missing a beat. And when they want to play a record the traditional way, they can simply switch the deck to Analog mode and use the tone arm as normal.

The PLX-CRSS12 can adapt to suit the artist style. By adjusting the rotation dial on the included MAGVEL CLAMP, artists can change how "heavy" or "light" the record feels. Artists can also adjust the turntable's torque level in the utility settings, and there are 3 stopping speeds to choose from.

At first glance, artists will see how the PLX-CRSS12 has been designed for fluid scratching and intuitive performances. And when they look closer, they'll notice features that enable a greater level of control and creativity. The battle-style layout leaves plenty of room for scratching and there are 4 MIDI-mappable Performance Pads too. Artists can also keep an eye on crucial information via the OLED display.
