NEW GENERATION PIONEER DIGITAL TURNTABLES PROVIDE MORE CONTROL AND BETTER MIXING CAPABILITIES CDJ-1000MK3 and CDJ-800MK2

LONG BEACH (February 22, 2006) – Pioneer Electronics (USA) Inc. today introduced the CDJ-1000MK3 and CDJ-800MK2, a new generation of high-end digital turntables that puts more control into the hands of DJs. Step-up features include jog feel adjustments, hot looping / re-looping, improved track and wave data display and MP3 compressed audio playback, providing DJs enhanced mixing and scratching capability to sharpen their craft. Suggestions from previous generation CDJ owners were taken into account in developing the new turntables, to add better feel, precision and performance. DJs will find the Pioneer CDJ products to feel as close to a vinyl turntable with the great benefits of a digital player.

“The input we received from leading DJs who used the previous CDJ models helped in the development of the next generation products,” said Karl Detken, product planning director for DJ products for Pioneer Electronics (USA) Inc. “Adding MP3 playback to the CDJ-1000MK3 and the CDJ-800MK2 was a natural progression based on the growing use of MP3s. MP3 adds convenience and immediacy, making it easier for DJs to transport and access their music.”

Both new turntables will be available beginning in March 2006. Suggested price for the CDJ-1000MK3 is $1449 and the CDJ-800MK2 is $849.

CDJ-1000MK3
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.

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-800MK2

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.

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.

Availability March Suggested Price - CDJ-1000MK3, $1,449, CDJ-800MK2, $849.

FAQs:

Since I know there will be some let me start. (Pulse please feel free to add to this list)

Q: CDJ-1000Mk3: What are the resistance ranges in the
"Jog Feel Adjust"?
A: All the way to the left is the same resistance as the CDJ-800(mk1). About 1pm is the CDJ-1000mk2. All the way to the right is slightly heavier than the 1000Mk2.

Q: Why are the prices more expensive than the 800(Mk1) and 1000Mk2?
A: More stuff and more improvements over those players

Q: What if we just purchased a 1000mk2 or 800(mk1)? Do you guys have a upgrade trade in program?
A: No. If you just purchased they will have been cheaper than what you will have to pay for the new models. So if you really think you need the new features then sell the old ones and get the new ones.

Q: When will they REALLY hit the stores.
A: For sure beginning of April. Possibly end of March.

Q: If the 800Mk2 has been increased to 4000 cue point memory. 10 per CD x 400 CDs. How much did the 800(mk1) have?
A: 500

Q: What does it mean that the 800Mk2 mimics the 1000mk2 jog feel.
A: The 800 no longer will have that super light feel. It will have the heavier feel of the 1000Mk2

Q: What if I like the feel of the 800 (Mk1).
A: Get the 1000Mk3 which you can fine tune to have that super light feel.

Q: Is the resume function on these new players the same as the resume on the CDJ200?
A: Yes

Q: Is the Hot Loop on the Mk3 the same as the Hot Loop on the DVJ?
A: Yes

Q: Am I correct to understand that the pitch in wide when using MP3 is +70% where as the pitch when playing CD is +100%? If so why is that.
A: Yes you are correct. The reason why is just BECAUSE.

Q: Is the reason that the 1000Mk2 has been so hard to find because you guys were discontinuing the line?
A: Yes and No. Yes we knew we were going to introduce a new player however we thought we had ordered enough to fill demand through April. However over the last 18 months Pioneer (Worldwide) has experienced a record sales growth on our turntables. Literally the demand outweighed the supply.

Q: When will the product be available in Europe.
A: Around the same as US

Q: When will the product be available in Australia?
A: Australia is usually a month behind the rest of the countries however check with them to be sure.

Q: What's the deal with the little door for the memory card?
A: The door was placed as a protection. Not that it has ever happened to anyone I know but in the old model if you accidentally removed the card when writing to it the card would be permanently damaged. This way you cannot write to the card when the door is open.

Q: The CDJ-800Mk2 says it has a metalic look non slip jog dial. Is this the same as the DVJ?
A: Same look however a different composite material that is not as slippery as the DVJ. Has the same texture as the 1000Mk2.

Q: The wave display on the 1000Mk3 looks differente
A: Yes you are correct because the Mk2 was 50 dots wide the Mk3 is 100 dots wide.

Q: Am I correct to understand that the 1000Mk3 now can use SD as well as MMC cards just like the DVJ can?
A: YES

Q: Why didn't Pioneer make the Mk3 a rotating platter.
A: The CDJ patented jog dial technolgy has been around since 2000. It's the industry standard and what ALL top DJs ask for on their riders. All other rotating platters do a poor job of emulating a turntable. So we will stick to what we know best and continue with this jog dial format.

Q: Will Pioneer be offering system cases for these players with your mixers.
A: No however the foot print of these players as well as the new DJM800 is the same as the previous models. Many case companies already exist and market cases for these players.

Q: The press release says more data is available now. What does that exactly mean.
A: The longer wave display and more text display. The old player had 10 characters the new one has 16 characters.

Q: Is the wave read the same speed as the mk2
A: Wave Data reading speed is faster thatn Mk2

Q: What doea it mean improved Super Fast Manual Search
A: Normal Mk2 and 800 reads 80x speed when super fast is engaged
NEW Mk3 has step levels of speed so the faster you turn the faster the super fast reads. I.e. 5x – 10x – 20x – 40x – 80x – 160x

Niin... no... eiköhän uuden markot korvaa markkinoilla kokonaan vanhat. Tuskimpa Pioneerillakaan on varaa pitää kahta erilaista linjaa samalle mallille...

Mun mielestä asiaa käsiteltiin tossa FAQ:ssa:

"Q: Is the reason that the 1000Mk2 has been so hard to find because you guys were discontinuing the line?

A: Yes and No. Yes we knew we were going to introduce a new player however we thought we had ordered enough to fill demand through April. However over the last 18 months Pioneer (Worldwide) has experienced a record sales growth on our turntables. Literally the demand outweighed the supply."

Veikkaisin että tuo on se syy, että miksi Thomannilla ei välttämättä ole ollut tarjota noita soittimia.

0.1 mitä? pitchin tarkkuusprosentti vai? ainaki vanhassa 800:ssa on
0.05% tarkkuus pitchissa ja kuva kertoo että tossa uudessakin olisi
sama.
