Auto Beat Loop

Multi-Function Jog Wheel with Illuminated Jog Ring

The Stanton CMP.800 features a high resolution, touch-sensitive illuminated platter wheel for easy viewing of cue points and speed, with 9 different LED modes. The Stanton CMP.800 platter can even control functions such as pitch bending, loop end point, tscanning, frame searching, parameter control for effects, and pitch/volume control for sampling.

3 Beat-Syncable DSP Effects

The Stanton CMP.800 provides 3 high-quality DSP effects, derived from the award-winning M.207 mixer, including Echo, Flanger, and Filter with 2 control parameters per effect.

Hot Cues and Loops

The Stanton CMP.800 can store up to 4 Hot Cues per song, with an internal memory of 2048 cue points for audio CD's and MP3 CD's. Also, Hot Cues can be stored on your USB Mass-Storage device for expandable and virtually unlimited Cue and loop storage.

4-Bank Sampler

For even more creative remix possibilities, the Stanton CMP.700 lets DJs store four 5-second samples on the unit that can be played simultaneously with your currently playing track (CD or MP3). Sample playback is controlled from the 4 rugged rubber trigger pads on the front of the unit, and have available pitch and volume control for mixing the samples with currently playing material.

I absolutely love my stanton CMP-800's the sample decks and hot cue buttons are laid out perfectly! in front of the jogwheel? GENIUS!!! the 4 hot cue points as opposed to the normal 3 FANTASTIC. LOVE the effect manipulation through the jogwheels and an incredibly easy looping features, AND THE TAP!!!!! all BPM counters are CRAP! there is no better BPM counter then your own ears. Rather then fumbling with your headphones nudging the pitch slider ever so gently to get them to match up, cue to one side use the TAP to tap out the beat, then cue to the other tap that one out then match the numbers and your gold! If your looking for something to get you ready for a gig or to practice on in between gigs there are sliight deferences ul see from these and pioneers. Im not scared to say and MAYBE cause im more used to my cmp's but when playing on Pioneer 1000's i find myself missing my baby stantons.one thing i wish all cdj's would incorporate is the inverted screen- NECK SAVER. I love my stanton CMP800s almost as much as i love ZZSOUNDS.COM

Musical Background:

i played a massive called WOMP one year anniversary in SF and i have a weekly in Chico CA. and parties inbetween

Musical Style:

glitch, midtempo, breaks, melodic DUB, traplike funky sh*$.
