What are the effects or types of effects available?
The effects are mainly used for mixing.
echo, flanger, etc., are curious to see characteristics novelties!
What technology is used?
analog, digital (for / the lamp (s) may be going to make it one day lol)
Are they edited? Via an editor Mac / PC?
I think the doc. they do not speak editing but sending to another unit (sampler, pc), but since the beast is equipped with MIDI I / O, it can be sent as it can get!
What is the connection? (Audio / MIDI)
Audio I / O RCA I / O jack, I / O S / PDIF digital coaxial.
Special: SW Foot control jack (pedal on / off effect), i-link signed pioneer, relates only to the djm1000 (for now)
PM: I / O course
Is this a rack or rack-mount model?
no, but you can put it on a support bracket type cdj500s (very expensive but effective) or support TV (TV 36 cm, 30 kg of pressure for example) look great and the exact proportions of the efx (see video on my future site www.djleo.org, video available early August)

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is it simple?
for the effects of bases is the simplest technique like "adjustable sound effect ON button, press effect" and it comes out! It can not be simpler.
For combinations of effects a bit more complicated, a day of tests may be necessary, but no worries ca Vienda fast!
Editing sounds and effects is it easy?
As said before: "Setting sound effect ON button, press effect"
The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
The manual, thin, I just looked for the config. noon, but it looks very clear diagrams explain that give an effect (eg echo) on paper or on a osciloscope, ca really gives an idea of ​​the sound coming out.

SOUND QUALITY

The effects are they effective, responsive and realistic enough?
effective?
This question should not appear, lol, just kidding!
It&#39;s just a killing!
Good on paper is of 94 kHz / 24 bit in the management of the audio signal. What happens to the ear, it&#39;s pure crinstallin finally have to listen when the settings of input and output are set pil hair over your table (or in the efx or MASTER SEND / RETURN on your table, whatever) the sound is beautiful, thank you piopio!
adapted?
As mentioned in the forum, compared to other large generators of effects known for their sound quality and their timeliness, the efx 1000 embeds the Essenciel effects that can be used in djing (no fuss, no mess), it may even, through its digital connection, you use very good effects generator for the production studio! ohhh yes!
realistic enough?
Not need to lie, pure sound, you ca transforms your mix! Be careful, as any effects generator, does not like me, too many effects kills the effect! lol
Which instruments do you use?
I&#39;m not a musician, just small dj, so with my gear + dj qqs both prod.
Which ones you prefer, you hate?
Shame for the competitors, there&#39;s not much to take ... I just let the insulator Hight / Mid / Low as the efx 500 me, but hey it&#39;s me, others will say that c is better that way.

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?
2 days, but I&#39;m going mad, like some friendly people who know me or via my site know. I tested for you readers! and I rank them in trenches (excluding impact against the walls, I do not ca! lol)
What is so special that you like most and least?
as:
the feedback loop changes with time, it&#39;s magic! see future video
minimum:
For some effects the speed we should have done that one believes in a live performance like Laurent Garnier, with 10L of sweat at his feet!
Have you tried many other models before buying it?
so, necessarily, we bought not one multi-purpose almost 900 euros without testing!
I tried all those who were not in a rack, which could be put near.
How would you rate the quality / price?
The quality is undeniable that! The price. it is true that 100 or 200 euros less allow smaller budgets to take, I say no. This is the biggest criticism that can be a pioneer, a pioneer fesai I myself was a time when I could not Accera material of this type (a time of cdj500s eg). On the other hand as I disai or the seller I bought all this, Pioneer is still the material very, very successful, functional, and now, very robust, and must say that I knew not before, and when I hit the first time as my DJM800, bin there&#39;s nothing to see, for the same price, it&#39;s really a hardware part. I preach no pioneer, I know lots of other brands, but their new range (cdj800mk2, cdj1000mk3, djm800/1000, efx 1000) tappent very very much! I imagine it will not even go out in 3 / 4 years ...
With experience, you do again this choice? ...
And the answer "in a 3 / 4 years old pioneer", okay?
