Pioneer DJ has upgraded one of its USB-only multiplayers to create the XDJ-1000MK2.
It inherits features from the CDJ-2000NXS2 including its 7-inch full-colour high-resolution touch screen, enhanced track browsing functionality and support for playing high-quality FLAC and ALAC files. it also has a Track Filter and the new Matching feature.
The XDJ-1000MK2 also retains key features from before, including the Qwerty touch-screen keyboard for keyword searches, and the large rotary dial for scrolling. There are also colour-coded USB devices which match the illuminated USB port to illustrate what’s on each device.
It can also be connected to the DDJ-SP1 controller (sold separately) and use its large Performance Pads for tactile control of many of the new or improved features on the XDJ-1000MK2, including its eight Hot Cues.
The XDJ-1000MK2 is available from September at an SRP of €1,299 including VAT.
