Pioneer DJ is expanding its collection of Rekordbox controllers with the release of a new flagship product, the DDJ-RZX.
Designed to make the most of the new Rekordbox video Plus Pack, the 4-channel professional controller inherits traits from the CDJ-2000NXS2 multiplayer and DJM mixer series including large jog wheels, multicoloured Performance Pads and high quality sound. It features three 7-inch touch screens, two XLR combo input jacks for distortion-free Mic output, Mic EQ and FX, and an extensive FX unit.
The new Rekordbox video software is an optional Plus Pack and is compatible with all the controllers in the DDJ series. It can be used to manage video and image files in Rekordbox, then play and mix them live as if they were audio tracks. The software allows the user to add text to videos and create image slideshows on the fly, and use the Camera FX to show the live feed from a digital camera connected to a computer. Video and images are sent to a monitor or projector from the computer’s video output.
The DDJ-RZX is available from July at an SRP of €2,999 including VAT. The controller comes bundled with licence keys for Rekordbox dj, Rekordbox dvs and Rekordbox video (worth a total of €409 including VAT).
