Designed by DJs for DJs and drawing inspiration from Pioneer's industry standard CDJ-1000 series

Show full description »

Pioneer CDJ-400: designed by DJs for DJs and drawing inspiration from Pioneer's industry standard CDJ-1000 series, the CDJ400 is the latest member of the world-famous CDJ family and is fully geared up to serve the next generation of digital artists. The CDJ400 allows DJs to play their MP3 collection off CD-R/RW discs as well as music from mass storage USB devices, such as USB keys, external hard drives and portable media devices. The deck also features the world’s first Scratch Jog Effects, with three creative scratch effects and an amazing new Loop Divide function. Virtually all of the button and slider functions can send MIDI data via USB output, making it possible for the decks to control DJ software and other applications, such as Pioneer DJS or Serato Scratch LIVE on a PC or MAC. The CDJ-400 deck is a perfect partner for the DJM-400 mixer and together they provide the ultimate home party set-up.

  • Digital media playback - The CDJ-400 handles CD Audio and MP3 files from CD, while USB connectivity lets DJs draw upon sound libraries on external storage devices. Through the new push-selection Rotary Scroll Wheel and Back Button, users can navigate files and folders as simply and quickly as on many of the leading portable media players available today.
  • MIDI control via USB - With Pioneer's finger firmly on the pulse of digital DJ developments, it is only natural that the CDJ-400 can control DJ and music application software. This is achieved by simply selecting the PC Source Select button, so that virtually all of the deck's buttons and slider can send MIDI control data via the PC USB connection. So when MIDI is the message, the CDJ-400 definitely delivers. For example, a DJ can connect the CDJ-400 to a PC or MAC and play and manipulate files from their favourite DJ application software – such as Pioneer DJS or Serato Scratch LIVE – and this doesn’t even require a time-code disc to be used in the deck.
  • New illuminated Jog Wheel - With a design inspired by the club standard CDJ-1000 Jog Wheel comes the CDJ-400’s 115mm illuminated platter. You can choose from six different patterns of Jog Wheel illumination and even personalise your own CDJ 'slip mats' or jog sheets.
  • New Scratch Jog Effects - In addition to the Digital Jog Break Effects (JET, WAH and ROLL) found in CDJ Mode, Pioneer serves up the world's first Scratch Jog Effects, BUBBLE, TRANS and WAH, in vinyl mode. BUBBLE simulates a scratch technique and is great for spin backs, while TRANS is like rhythmically transforming with a mixer’s cross fader and WAH resembles the guitar Wah pedal.
  • New Beat Loop Divide - Can you dance to this b-b-beat? Making the magic of live mash-up even more manageable, the funky new Beat Loop Divide facility rhythmically dices loops to fashion beats with drama, intrigue or whatever your desired effect. It is easily adjustable using its (- and +) buttons during loop playback, thereby creating loops with mind-melting, dancefloor-destroying twists.
  • Hot Loop and Beat Loop - Besides the Beat Loop Divide, the CDJ-400 lets DJs create flawless four-beat Beat Loops and Hot Loops. For the latter hit the Hot Loop (In/Out point) buttons during a loop to retrigger the loop. Up to 10 Cue/Loop points per disc, for up to 920 discs, can be stored in memory and transferred by usb key between CDJ-400s.
  • Other Functions
    • Tempo range settings available: ±6%, ±10%, ±16% and WIDE
    • Resume function - restarts playback of a disc from the point at which it was most recently ejected
    • Digital Output - connect to Pioneer’s range of digital DJM mixers or other studio equipment

Pioneer CDJ-400 Reviews

10/10

My new best friend

— Michael Basra May 30, 2008

When I decided to make the step up from record turntables to CD turntables it wasn't too easy a task. I knew the market leaders were of course the Pioneer CDJ-1000 Mk3's. But at £800 each id be saving for quite a long time!. When I started looking at it's little brothers I stumbled upon these. They were only new when I saw them but damn they looked good. and they were half the price! only £400 each! I decided to order them as soon as I had the money. Once I opened the boxes and set the beauties up I was amazed. There's no CD tray. It just takes the CD in and out like in a movie. The jog wheel moves so freely like it's on runners. One of the big helps over turntables is the pitch control and how precise it is. OK that's to do with it having a microprocessor in it but it's so accurate. You can even adjust it to +100% or
-100%. And the LCD screen tells you the BPM better than any mixer BPM counter can. So all you have to do is match the BPM's for each player and fade over. If you still miss your turntables, you can use the CDJ-400 like a record player with the push of a button. then you just move the jog wheel round as if it where a record!
On top of this there are integrated effects which you can control with the jog wheel as well just like an effects module. Another of my favourites is the loop...system. Basically you get the track where you want it, press the first yellow button to start the loop then play the track and press the second yellow button to end the loop and it will just keep looping until you press exit! It's so simple yet advanced. One final thing is that you can even have your own light show (well not literally). You can control the red ring of LED's around the jog wheel as I'm sure you can see in the picture. You can have it so it pulses, so it follows your hand and so it's like a Mexican wave! Because I'm running out of space this will be my last comment on this truly amazing product. It has MIDI compatibility so you can connect it to a computer and use it with almost any DJ software. One of Pioneers best creations yet. It ranks right up there with Technics 1200's which will soon be obsolete due to these babies!
