All user reviews for the Pioneer CDJ-800 MK2

I bought it September 25, 2006 with djm 800 (a set of beautiful!)
I love the most: the scratch perfect, the master tempo really well done, prccision pitch (0.05) that allows long as they mix like the quick read even cd to mp3.
the least: I AIM without a return to cue jump.
j'tais on the front and a gemini really have nothing to do really is the stuff of quality.
ben for me qualitprix the report is appropriate given that I have to pay the 575 a new one. I wanted to beginners but my budjet 1000 MK3 does not allow me and then the 800 MK2 suit me perfectly.
with the exprience I repeat that choice without hsitation!
Is the Pioneer must!
since October 30, 2006 a small firmware update is out of the plate I found on Pioneer belgium I give you the link for those that have INTERESTED: http://www.pioneer.be/be / content/support/support/upgrade/CDJ800MK2.html you just need to download the file, burn it and follow the instructions indicated on the site.

I just receive it, a good use ... aprem j'sui in love!

the characteristic I like most are a few things ... lol

general appearance not unlike the plastic cdj 800's former name.
total accuracy, the set identical to the 1000 except a few to be the bearings.

I tried the old cdj 800, 1000, the axis 9 cr (nothing to do lol)

it is above very clearly from the old generation cdj 800, and aside from the hot cues, over the 1000 (that's my personal opinion).
the exellent value for money is not to say the best platinum level benefits (I bought a 655 Andorra: a great price. 829 is true that this is a bit expensive!)

I do it again this choice without hesitation, CDJ 1000 MKIII next purchase (more convenient with these hot cues for acapella)

- How long have you use it?

About 1 month of use

- What is so special that you like most and least?
The Pros:

The ergonomics of work, a simple connection, the affected ...
Minimum:

At this level there is more to say:

"BUG" CDR and CDRW:

-Problems reading, Scratch and Roll-up ... stop playing

-The solution to this problem is to Burn CDs at low speed (speed required: 2x to 4x) to get the best possible quality
"Since I burn all my CDs at that speed I was no longer any problems"
"BUG" MP3:

-Tempo Stalling Problem, Can not read it, Snap Loops ...
-The only solution is TOTALLY BANNNIR MP3 Format
"Since I converted my mp3 to wav, I have a better audio quality (I hear the sound less dull, more standardized) and the timing of the Tempo is rigouresment more precise"
- Have you tried many other models before buying it?

Yes to almost everything that can be found on the market today, I had the chance to test all materials in one magazine "Music & Key" in St Nicolas in Belgium.

- How would you rate the quality / price?

The quality is there and the price too.

- With experience, you do again this choice? ...

Yes again even 1500 Euros for the pair

I use these plates for 2 weeks, and I wonder how I used to.

Level quality mix, they are simply perfect, precise pitch, the jog can refine Sampler slot on the fingertips.
I do not function as vinyl mixing Lounge, House, Electro, and scratching does not.
The reliability of the plates is exemplary, no crash, no break beat, the course of a CD is highly reactive.
on the other hand I would have liked a 2-line display for the song title and time simultaneously, the hots cue is not a big deal for platinum in this range there, and finally when recording a loop in memory to automatically back in while playing.

Before I used Stanton M.304 and M.314 (see my review) and tried CDJ-200 (not good jog, if not super function).

The price / quality ratio is very good if we dug up a good deal, especially abroad.

I do it again this choice without a doubt, and I will opt for the big sisters, CDJ-1000, if I had a bigger budget.
After trying the Pioneer, we realize that other brands (except that Denon makes very good product) is really junk and are all more or less generic products with poor optical and electronic imprecise.

How long have you use it?

Four months.
What is the particular feature you like best and least?

The +: The precision of pitch and the turntable.

the -: The price
Have you tried many other models before acqurir?

Yes, I tried the equivalent of MODEL Denon, I chose the Pioneer, the clubs as all teams of this type of hardware (or cdj 1000, cdj which are LOOP 800 but with no three points of a link to CUE)
How do you report qualitprix?

These are the best turntables with cdj 1000 but also the most Chres ... Therefore, the report is difficult to judge ... The most frustrating as that of abroad, they are much less Chres ...
Exprience with, you will do again this choice?

Yes, they are idalie to get your feet wet and if it goes discothque, it is not dpays (I dj mix on cdj 800 in a club of 1500 people) , the automatic return soon ... And Pioneer is the REFERENCE ...

- How long have you use it? 1 week ...
- What is the particular feature you like most? Lightweight, super accurate, very good visibility, 1000 and 1000 cue point loops recordable
- What is the particular feature you like least? Low honestly in a week I find I tend not to say the price but frankly given the product and its quality is its quite good!
- Have you tried many other models before acqurir? buy a double cd on fear unbranded ... ditto for my first table after a dual player and a table cdn88 numark gemini ps621i and without hesitation with my two and my djm 800 djj800mk2 jai finally feel mix!
- How do you report qualitprix? frankly quite correct because it really is the bomb plus I had a 600 nine are you just looking for a little
- With the exprience, you do again this choice? YES! and frankly I think for people between the tate or 1000MK2 1000MK3 n'on and not a lot of money the cdj800mk2 than enough!

- How long have you use it?

Since one month to the day buy the 1200 two on this site) before I had Denon DN-S3000

- What is the particular feature you like best and least?
The precision is the most crazy over the Denon (I speak from scratch) and also the sound of Scratch! There are no photo!
Next is the MP3 mode (I've also taken to cell) recognition of the MP3 CD as fast as that of a Denon CD Wave: / And the mmo for MP3 (big change from my Denon)
And finally the quick search through the set + the automatic loop (hummm it was good but it must be the EXACT BPM)

The least that is the same and one button for the Brake and Release as a brake APRS you have to think back to the initial button ... with the practice used to it but it is something not to forget when you mix sounds trs fast!
The copy of a memo CDJ CDJ another, the trick is that it sucks too MASH MEMO CDJ Receivers and suddenly you have to advance the MEMO ... no top at all (by then 10 per CD MEMO need to have 20 songs on a CD)
There is also a small red LED on the bottom screen to indicate that a piece possde points / loop in memory. They could add more of these characters led's like an "A. CUE" for example "MEMO" red to indicate that the piece of possde Memory.
Aesthetics prfr what level I or any of black!
And finally a screen too small, or do as plutt the 1000MK3 to display the title at the same time as the last title!

- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?

No but I had normment: BST, Audiophony, Denon 2100F, Denon DN-S3000 and I dj on the mix CDJ 1000MK1/MK2, Denon 2500, Denon 2600F

- How do you report qualitprix?

This is the Pioneer is EXAGRES for what it is in the end, but good as a Diesel Jeans ...

- With the exprience, you do again this choice?

I would plutt "With money ..." No, I would take direct 1000MK3, but I would lose self loops ... ok lol
Our answer to the question ... bin to the Competition, I would say yes but the DN-S3500 is not bad either!

Rating 9 / 10

- How long have you use it?
for 1 year during evening private: prciser should I play trance (progressive full on) as well as that collection's outdoor indoor
I do not use the turntables to scratch and therefore no use for me of how vinyl
I do not play mp3 either because I am convinced that the wave is better

- What is the particular feature you like best and least?

The +:

* Cue mmorisation I mmorise systmatiquement a cue in pieces so I can save time in my mix ... This time saving is trs prcieux m'vite and again to have the same Eternal rglages
Transfer to a plate cue the other planks, but can not be done live, because we should not record in the plates at the time of transfer: to the extent that the work I prpare advance is not for me Gnant

* Master tempo
ds j'acquiert that a new disc could be played in the evening I note carefully to each song's BMP and Tone: This mthode allows me to give my mix (same Tone )
so I use systmatiquement the master tempo Determines and this is for me as a musician
I have not seen harmonic distortion with pitch ... probably the trance lends itself more easily to the master tempo + pitch

* Pitch
trs prcis: I have not a amlioration synchronization plates from the firmware upgrade 1.4 1.8 especially in a "master tempo"

* Jog
excellent: I play systmatiquement two pieces together over long squence and really allows a jog and registration IMMEDIATE aisbr />
Fiabilitbr * /> almost no crashes even during long sessions trs (8 24:00): I happened to have crashes but only on disc dirty or damaged

the -:

* Cue only 10 per disc ... an average of 1 per piece cue: Fortunately that on average there are only 8 9 tracks per CD (at least in trance)

* No support for removable mmoriser the cue:
I emphasize "heavily" on this because for me the mix of prep goes forcment Prior to working in a cost and mmorisation cue
when traveling I have no way to carry with me the job if not to carry my turntable ... I do prfrerai carry an SD card

- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
No, I learned directly on the mixer cdj 800 mk2

- How do you report qualitprix?
everything is okay given the rsultat I get with these turntables

- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
without hsiter yes because I have had for the moment that happiness with these turntables
the only point that I will evolve towards cdj 1000 mk3 is the SD card prsence
I highly recommends this hardware in the context that I Describes in intro (no MP3, no mode vinyl, trance mix) not that I deprecated the scratch but I is not exp ence in the Contents

How long have you use it?
I use it since 27/12/07

What is the particular feature you like best and least?

most: it's very enjoyable to use jog. it is large, it can be used from above, or the cot. it is also very accurate, it's a little destabilizing departing because it ragis very quickly, before I miwxais on vynil, and I think we can be more rough with the vinyl, feel it, the need to be very accurate, especially on the pitch (speed).
the least: I AIM a stop button! I know it's silly but it is supposed to eject the cd when you do not mix well, and since I will not move my turntables, I do not see the point. I also have an AIM screen larger, it is either the title or the name of the artist but not the two simultaneously. more when I zap the titles by putting me on the name of the artist, the player is recovering from her the same title.

Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
I had no particular mixing vinyl records on Technics 1210mk2. I also try cdj100mk3 (even touch a turntable denon that I could not find very practical (jog running) and a turntable numark, but it was pretty low end.

How do you report qualitprix?
do not lie, it's quite expensive (675 euros per plate), but good as everyone says, it's pioneer, and the quality is paid.

Exprience with, you will do again this choice? ...
I have not enough experience to confirm it, but I think so because the only I might be interested cdj1000mk3 is, but I do not really useful.
