CDJ-1000MKIII
PIONEER CDJ1000MK3 TABLE TOP CD PLAYER W/ MP3
Club owners and DJs will appreciate the robust build of the CDJ-1000MK3, with its familiar high-quality polished look and clean layout. The new features make it easier to transport music as well as simplify cueing, looping, scratching and stretching of tracks. The CDJ MKIII series feels as close to a vinyl turntable as you can get with the great benefits of a digital player.
Features:
- MP3 Capability – The player accepts playback of MP3 music including VBR files. A direct folder search button was added to allow DJs quick access to files within folders on an MP3 disc.
- JOG Wheel Feeling Adjust – The CDJ-1000MK3 includes a unique JOG feeling adjust letting DJs modify the resistance of the non-slip metallic jog wheel to meet individual styles. The wide tempo range (+100% to –100% with CDDA and +70% to 100% with MP3) also gives greater control.
- Multicolor Fluorescent Display - The display on the wheel was improved with a brighter, fluorescent display for quick visuals to music information. The larger cue marker and angle marks make it easier for scratch DJs to time their effects. The track display area was doubled in resolution to accommodate WAVE data and playing address details so users can see a track’s entire length at a glance.
- Hot Loop / Hot Cue Button – The player utilizes a single button to perform hot loop and hot cue storage, holding up to three loops per track. Orange and green illumination differentiate hot loop and hot cue tasks.
- Resume Play – A resume play feature starts the disc at the exact time a CD is ejected eliminating the need to start playback from the beginning of a disc. The feature is especially helpful when a CD is ejected accidentally.
- Gold RCA Connectors – Ensuring the highest level of sonic purity, the players use gold RCA connectors to minimize audio signal resistance.
CDJ-800MKII
PIONEER CDJ800MKII TABLE TOP CD PLAYER W/MP3
The CDJ-800MK2 retains the same key design themes found in many of Pioneer’s CDJ products, with a stylish new silver metallic finish and metallic buttons. It employs additional features for outstanding performance.
Features:
- MP3 Capability – The unit’s MP3 playback capability includes a “Folder Search” and “Text Mode” to provide artist name, track title and file name for quick access to music files.
- JOG Wheel Adjust - The feel of the JOG wheel is tweaked to mimic that of the CDJ-1000MK2. The jog wheel retains the non-slip metallic finish of the CDJ-1000MK3 as well as the same features on the JOG Display (brighter, larger cue point and 45° marks).
- Track Data Display – Track information through a higher resolution display is extended to show the complete track.
- Resume Play – Much like the CDJ-1000MK3, the unit resumes CD playback at the time a CD is ejected.
- Auto Beat Loop - DJs can create 1/8th beat loops with a new auto beat loop command with a quick hold of the loop-in button.
SWEEEEEEEET!

| i dunno maybe it's just me, but nothing too much to brag about. I'm happy with the MKII's I really don't intend to mix mp3's that much. Too much of a pain. |

Like the Jog Wheel adjust - Loop function could be useful too
Not much in a leap forward though ...... as King Deal Hunter said to me "That means the price on the Mark IIs will go down!" |

Agreed. I have the 800s and the only reason I would ever buy an upgraded 800 would be if they were to change the pitch increments. MP3 support does absolutely nothing for me. Plus, it's too shiny. |

Agreed, I was hoping that they would have added +/- 4% to the pitch adjustment like my Denons. |

is it upgradable so I can play my OGG files without transcoding them? :whip:
I agree with the previous post my current 1000's are fine for me, and being able to carry hundreds of tracks on 1 CD isn't really all that great.
oh and just wait until they release the DVD version... because there is just not enough room on 1 CD for my whole collection. :haha:
LOL |

+1
The larger wav display is nice, and so is jog wheel adjust, but they're not worth hundreds extra IMO.
mp3 is pretty useless to me. CD-R ftw! |

The nice thing about the mp3 playback is that if you are "practicing" then it's nice cuz you can load up a disc with 50-80 tracks or something and go back and forth, the process to burn tracks correctly onto CDR can be a pain sometimes. Past that, it's not worth it cuz no club is outfitting their setup with the MKIII anytime soon so why get use to something you can't use in a club enviroment. Perfect for home only or if you are a mobile dj and ONLY use your own equipement. But if I get one, use it for practice then the tracks that I would actually play out, burn to CDR.
