Question about CDJ-800

I've been looking for this everywhere but can't find it.

What are the smallest pitch increments (in percentage) on CDJ-800?

Posted by Cheetah86 on Mar-17-2005 03:41:

0.05% at the smallest range.

0.05 on it.

If you need 0.02 the cdj200 will be out soon and it has 0.02, also the denon dns3000 has 0.02.

Hmm... That's odd. I thought CDJ-800 had smaller increments than 200. Is it worth waiting for 200 or is it a good idea to get 800, if money is not a problem in this decision.

It depends on whether or not you want 0.02.

the CDJ-200 will basically be an 800 with +/-0.02% pitch increments and no vinyl emulation. in other words, a lot more practical for trance DJs, as most don't scratch.

no cool zabiela tricks?

Posted by Inertia on Mar-18-2005 01:37:

sadly, no.

i want 1000Mk2s. of course, i can't afford em. so, even though the 200 seems a lot more practical than the 800, given it comes out at a cheaper price, i'd still prefer the 800 just to experiment with turntablism. even if i never use it, I WANT TO LEARN TO SCRATCH.

Damn, if they have no vinyl mode, then it is a no-no for me. That is how I am used to cueing.

I would be more concerned about being able to hold a mix for a long time, rather than avoiding learning to cue in a new way.

Not that you cant hold a mix with 0.05, but I will tell you I do notice quite a difference between the 0.05 on the cdj800s that I own now, compared to the 0.02 on the denons that I previously owned.
