Pioneer DJ DDJ-REV5: 2-Channel DJ Controller

About the Pioneer DJ DDJ-REV5: 2-Channel DJ Controller

The Pioneer DJ DDJ-REV5 is a new generation Controller through serato DJ professional and Rekordbox compatibility.  This 2-Channel unit offers an authentic scratch experience and innovative features including its large jogs, magvel fader, dedicated buttons for stems Control, the 1st ever auto BPM transition, and piano play mode.

Large jog wheels and magvel fader for dynamic scratching:

The large jog wheels are responsive, reliable, and easy to operate, through a feel just like those on classic CDJ units, and they each include a display and playhead position so you'll always know where you are in the track.  You can also customize the jog feel to find your perfect wheel "weight".  The magvel fader is slick, robust, and ready to translate every tiny movement you make so you can scratch through precision.

Scratch style layout for open format freedom:

The long tempo sliders on the DDJ-REV5 run horizontally above the deck sections while the performance pads and lever FX are placed in the mixer section for dynamic performances, emulating the PLX and DJM-S-series deck + mixer setups loved by open format DJ's around the world.  Thanks to the proximity of the pads, levers, and faders, you can fuse scratching through pad play and effects.

Dedicated buttons for easy stems control:

Easily make live mashups and remixes using the Stems buttons on the DDJ-REV5. Your tracks will be split into Stems within the software – vocals, melody, bass, and drums in Serato DJ Pro, or vocal, drums, and inst (other instruments including bass and synths) in rekordbox – which you can play separately.  It includes: stems mute and separate and level / solo or mute them to create your own mashups on the fly.  Then isolate the ones of a track on separate decks to make live remixes.  Use the EQ knobs to adjust the volume for separate ones.  You can use them in combination alongside deck move, so it's easy to make and control multiple live mashups and remixes at once.

New auto BPM transition for smooth mixing:

Mixing between musical genres through vastly different tempos is easy using the new auto BPM transition.  Choose a number of bars for the transition and, when you press the button, the playing track will gradually change tempo to match the one loaded to the other deck so you can seamlessly mix or drop in the new track.  You can also set stems, auto loop, and key lock control to be applied during the transition.

New piano play mode for intuitive musical performances:

Just like pitch play, you can use the 16 performance pads to trigger a cue point in different semitones.  But, through the new piano play mode, pitch changes are arranged so the pads form a keyboard, using the "white" keys on the bottom row and the "black" ones at the top.  Choose from 3 scales and, even if you have no knowledge of musical theory or scales, you'll find it easy to play a tune.

Multiple in and outputs plus 2 USB type C ports for smooth DJ transitions:

You can use the DDJ-REV5 as the center of a larger setup thanks to its wide variety of in and outputs, including an XLR master out that's perfect for use in professional environments.  There are 2 USB type C ports for PC / mac too, making it easy to swap between DJ's through a simple flick of a switch on the Controller.

Serato DJ professional and Rekordbox plug and play compatibility:

Choose your favorite software and start DJ'ing right away.  You can simply plug the DDJ-REV5 into a PC / mac running the latest version of serato DJ professional or Rekordbox to use either application for free, you don't need a license key or subscription.  A voucher for the serato pitch in time DJ expansion pack is also included.
