The Pioneer CDJ-800MK2 has a stylish new silver metallic finish and metallic JOG buttons and also includes full MP3 compatibility; tracks can be operated in the same way as CDs as the deck is equipped with Folder Search, and in Text Mode the artist name, track title and file name are shown on the display.

The JOG wheel retains the non-slip metallic finish of the CDJ-1000MK3 and the subtle silver trim on the wheel, as well as the same features on the On JOG Display (brighter, larger cue point and 45 Deg marks).

The feel of the JOG wheel is tweaked to mirror that of the CDJ-1000MK2. The track data display is of a higher resolution (multicolour and fluorescent) and the address data has been extended to include the complete track. Resume play is also included alongside the backlighting of the re-loop button. In addition, it¡¯s now possible to make short beat loops on the CDJ-800MK2 due to the inclusion of an AUTO BEAT LOOP command: by pushing the loop-in button, DJs can create a one-per-eight BEAT LOOP.

With digital connectivity, the CDJ-800MK2 can be at the centre of a full digital environment, providing a deck that offers the core professional features that have made Pioneer the mark by which other tabletop CD systems are measured.
