Mixing is performed with the same type of 32-bit DSP as used in the DJM-1000 and DJM-800, thus eliminating any loss in fidelity, and producing clear and powerful club sound optimally suited for DJ play. 2 3-band equalizer with kill function Equalizer functions are provided for each of the three bandwidths HI, MID, and LOW, and a kill function is provided to drop the attenuation level to -∞. 3 Wide variety of effects 1) Beat effects The "beat effects" so popular on the DJM-600 have been given further evolution. Effects can be applied in linkage to the BPM (Beats Per Minute) count, thus allowing the production of a variety of sounds. Some of the effects include delay, echo, filter, flanger, phaser, robot, and roll. 2) Beat select buttons Automatically set the effect time linked to the BPM. Allows selection of desired BPM for synchronizing beat effects. 3) IN-LOOP sampler Detects the current track's BPM and records up to 5 of 4-beat sources in banks, and plays a loop in time with the track's BPM. 4 2 MIC input, AUX switching Equipped with 2 MIC input jacks that can be switched to AUX, allowing use as a third LINE input. 5 Auto talk-over The auto talk-over function automatically reduces track volume when microphone input is detected. 6 Other functions ¶ A control cable can be used to connect the unit to a Pioneer DJ CD player, thus allowing playback to be linked to operation of the fader ("fader start play"). ¶ "Fader curve adjustment" function allows modification of the cross fader curves. ¶ "Auto BPM counter" provides visual representation of a track's tempo. ¶ Monitor auto assignment function can be used to assign channel inputs and master outputs to the left and right channels of monitor headphones. ¶ Full lineup of input/output systems.

CAUTIONS REGARDING HANDLING Location Install the unit in a well-ventilated location where it will not be exposed to high temperatures or humidity. ÷ Do not install the unit in a location which is exposed to direct rays of the sun, or near stoves or radiators. Excessive heat can adversely affect the cabinet and internal components. Installation of the unit in a damp or dusty environment may also result in a malfunction or accident. (Avoid installation near cookers etc., where the unit may be exposed to oily smoke, steam or heat.) ÷ When the unit is used inside a carrying case or DJ booth, separate it from the walls or other equipment to improve heat radiation. Cleaning the Unit ÷ Use a polishing cloth to wipe off dust and dirt. ÷ When the surfaces are very dirty, wipe with a soft cloth dipped in some neutral cleanser diluted five or six times with water and wrung out well, then wipe again with a dry cloth. Do not use furniture wax or cleaners. ÷ Never use thinners, benzene, insecticide sprays or other chemicals on or near this unit, since these will corrode the surfaces. 3
