The DJ Shop introduces the Pioneer DDJ-SZ-N Limited Edition Gold Four-Channel Pro DJ Controller:
The top-of-the-range DDJ-SZ four-channel controller for Serato DJ is now even more desirable, as Pioneer DJ releases the limited run Gold Edition. Named the ‘Ultimate DJ Controller 2014’ by DJ Mag Tech Awards, the professional four-channel DDJ-SZ is the first controller to mirror the CDJ-2000NXS set-up for the most intuitive Serato DJ performances yet. Now Pioneer DJ is making just 1,000 units available worldwide in a stylish gold finish, each engraved with its unique serial number.
DJ: the bigger, brighter DDJ-SZ. The DDJ-SZ is the first Pioneer controller to closely match the CDJ-2000NXS set-up for the most intuitive, physical scratch performances yet. Features include full-sized jog wheels inherited from the CDJ-2000NXS,illuminated cue point markers, large Performance Pads with customisable multi-coloured Hot Cue LEDs, and two USB sound cards for ultra-smooth DJ handovers.
The DDJ-SZ takes all the best features of its stable mate the DDJ-SX and enhances them to deliver the best live performance experience available. It is the only controller with an On Jog Display – which introduces a unique digital sticker illumination with cue point countdown and track playback position – so DJs can perform precision scratches without looking at their laptop screen. Plus the full-sized jog wheels feature Jog Feeling Adjust, brake speed, and conductive technology for a lighter, smoother faster response.
DJs can finger-drum with confidence thanks to the larger, velocity-sensitive Performance Pads, which give instant access to quantized Hot Cues, Slicer, Roll and Sampler. The multi-coloured LEDs show which mode is in play and will match cue point colours that DJs have pre-set in Serato DJ.
The DDJ-SZ has DVS control and more than holds its own as a stand-alone mixer, with four mixer channels and two dedicated MIC channels. DJs can instantly trigger four Sound Colour FX – which can also be applied to the sampler, MICs and Master channel – and manipulate them with a high/low pass filter on each channel. Further hands-on controls include Oscillator FX, Slip Mode and Reverse, and dedicated plug-and-play access to all Serato DJ’s exciting
features.
The most elegant solution for the modern scratch DJ, the DDJ-SZ should be part of any professional set-up.
