I have been a DJ for years and I have tried so many mixing equipment I have known. But base from my experience the Pioneer CDJ equipments have quite performed their job well. The rise in digital technology have created vast opportunities for mixing equipment to improve on their products. This is where pioneer steps in. Digital playing made some important changes in the way we do music. Some DJs bring with them just their laptops and from there hundreds of music are played and control. The difference with the cdj by pioneer is, it is able to play both music from CD and digitally. It can even play music using other forms of digital media like the memory stick, smart phones and yes, the laptop. The transition from turntables to digital mixing has been a breeze with pioneer products, the digital equipment surely made it easier. For a hands on DJ like me, it will surely let me create superb music.
