ok i thought the 3000 was the best mixer that pioneer made, but the 600 is more expensive. i think the 3000 has 3 effects that the 600 doesnt, but is there anything im loosing by getting the 3000 instead of the 600?
also, do either of these mixers have a seperate volume control for booth speakers. i want one that has controls for master, booth, and headphones. |

| My djm-500 has a master, monitor, and headphones volume control. The headphones also has a level control as well as the volume. I'd assume that the djm-600 has all that and more. I assumed that the monitor out was going to be pretty weak, it's actually just as loud as the master out. |

never sued the 3000
i own a 600 and yes it has controls for all that you asked about.
though ive never used the booth, i use the 'rec' out for recording and the mast out for the actual speakers, haha what the hell is it for?
also i bought some hum reducer thing for 100$, it has the huge headphone looking jacks for inputs but i converted them to rca for my cables, the instructions said to put the device between the signal and the amp, which i did. my master out goes to my stereo which is my amp, but it doesnt seem to do for anything. any ideas? its supposed to reduce certain frequencies that cause 'humming'.. wtf |

Ive got a got DJM3000 sitting beside me :D
never used the DJM600
the 3000 is just a 19" version of the 600, so if you ever plan on mounting your mixer then get the 3000 |

| 3000 has no sampler, but some effects on the x-fader that the 600 doesn't. it has digital outputs that the 600 doesn't, extra microphone inputs. apart from the sampler i don't think the differences mean much, more about preferred format. I read somewhere that someone bought the 600 cos it was more spaced out between controls, which is funny cos I got the 3000 for the same reason. |

hey deleriuM, do you like the 3000, any probs or complaints about it?
i went to the local guitar center today and played with the djm 500, 600, and 3000. i think ive made my choice and am gonna go with the 3000. it did have a few more effects than the 600. plus i like the fact that its a 19". i have fat fingers and the extra room between the nobs is nice. plus its $200 less than the 600, which makes it that much more appealing.
i know this is a stupid question, but what do you mean by sampler? im guessing that this is a feature that the 600 has? what is it used for and do i really need it? also is this something that can be added to a setup through an effects loop or something?
thanks for the help everybody!
cheers-

| the sampler takes a recording "sample" which you can play back. |

| the djm-600 has a hell of a lot more features then an A&H mixer for that price. YAH YAH YAH don't even start talking about the supposed sound quality or anything that like. the DJM-600 is THE CLUB STANDARD, if it sounded so crap or was so unreliable then it wouldn't be. Yes there are starting to be more A&H mixers in clubs now, but they are no where near the majority. |
