  Audiofanzine FR's review

  Overall Opinion

  (Originally written by 2deejays/translated from Audiofanzine FR)
  
  I've been using it for six months. I bought it one week after its launch. I strongly recommend this product: affordable price, great and very precise CDJ-800-1000-like jog dial, excellent scratch function (like with a vinyl record). Great product!

  nurgle's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " A very good product"

  Overall Opinion

  The CDJ 400 is primarily a product of entry-level professional platinum, and must be judged as such I think.
  
  Indeed, although it is not the level of the CDJ 1000 and Big Sisters, the cdj 400 is comparable to the price, because except for the jog which I think is its only major flaw (too small asse and not nervous), it is of a similar type to the other cdj.
  
  It completely respect the expectations of a pro as amateur dj, and offers the same basic services and essential dj than any other model in the range.
  
  It is perfect for the discovery of the mix, and also agree to pro. She taught me to mix, and it is this that I made by hand (club mix now and prod), I have no regrets. From all my rookie mistakes, it does absolutely not.
  
  
  
  The more unlike many I would say that is the price, as a model as good you will not find better at this price.
  
  
  
  Is probably the least latency USB key, the lack of display (screen too small, no first hand of the song it's a shame ...).
  
  
  
  10 notes that I attribute:
  
  
  
  8 / 10 for the grip
  
  9 / 10 for sound quality
  
  6 / 10 for the jog
  
  10/10 for buttons (similar to any other products, and a remarkable robustness)
  
  9 / 10 for format compatibility
  
  7 / 10 for the speed of USB charging
  
  10/10 for Connectivity
  
  8 / 10 for the price
  
  9 / 10 durability, 5 years, tjr no problem with her, in great shape
  
  
  
  As for the price, I advise you to buy not more than 650 euros, you can easily find;)
  
  With the experience we always choose (or you want to) the models above, but this product is that like many CDJ.

  dtdfedoras's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " too expensive and not reliable enough"

  Overall Opinion

  18 months
  
  yes denon numark cdj 1000 and AudioPhony cdx6
  
  what I love most: the effects, accuracy and touch
  
  the least: price, reliability not so good as that, no hot cue
  
  very poor value for money
  
  as a professional so I would do this choice because people ask me the "pioneer" not personal but for me there are lesser known brands, but have more opportunities and to -50%!

  arizona65's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " good machine"

  Overall Opinion

  I bought this new Platoche in 2009.
  
  
  
  As for the other models tested, no I have not done, I stayed on the Pioneer since I started but I tried for 2 months a Audiophony CDX6, too complicated and problems with it. I have owned the cdj 100s and a cdj200 cdj 350. What's more, aside from the quality of the plates either in the solid sound quality, everything is good.
  
  
  
  Other people will see in Pioneer expensive machines, where you pay the brand, I do not quite agree. Yes it's expensive, but when I see that I have owned a CDJ 100 s for 5 years with no problems with regular use, others do not necessarily. Another example, the keys are hard plastic and strong, other brands of caouchouc that bar at the end.
  
  
  
  So yes all apparaeils fail, I am not an electronics but I'm sure. But there are devices that last longer than others.
  
  
  
  Regarding features, everything has already been said. I like the three built-in effects, it scratch the function, reverse. Good after I use it almost not be said that the scratch is not perfect and precise it is better to buy the models above.
  
  What happened to me interesting is the USB port because it's convenient, it is not constantly trying to burn CDs, and also the display of titles that I is compulsory from 'working with the mp3.
  
  
  
  As against what I find disturbing is the waiting time before reading the USB drive if it has a lot of titles.
  
  
  
  Price / quality ratio, I find it a bit expensive like all Pioneer products, but as I said above, the quality is there. With this machine, we're going to Essenciel, not something useless or difficult to resolve.
  
  
  
  As for the choice, I do not think I will redeem this machine for two simple and practical reason, not because I had problems:
  
  -The first thing is that this model not been manufactured since replaced by the CDJ 350
  
  And the second reason is that I can not afford to have old hardware, so I repeated frequently, but as I said in the first reason, we find nine more.

  DeeGSA92's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Excellent platinum compact HID"

  Overall Opinion

  Hello,
  
  
  
  I use these plates for 2 years with a DJM 400 for flight home.
  
  They are connected to a MacBook with Traktor Pro: near-zero latency and excellent.
  
  (I also have a Kontrol X1 for effects)
  
  
  
  I love their compactness (with the DJM 400) which is a real plus in discomobile.
  
  I love Midi HID compatibility allows seamless integration with DVS: the screen shows the details of soft .... it's really complete.
  
  And finally I find complete ultra: CD, MP3 via USB and then USB connection for softs and sound card very good.
  
  
  
  I find against it by a little heat.
  
  
  
  I'm glad these models, to me well over 350 toy that really .... apart Recordbox. Good on the other hand Pioneer, still too expensive!
