All user reviews for the Pioneer DJM-700

For specifications, see the table info.

UTILIZATION

This is a 4-track with a box-board effect everything from classic.

The handling is very simple, easy access functions, except some of the effect box that requires reading the manual.

Apart from the headphone jack located on the left (I do not like it too much but it's a matter of taste), this console is pretty well thought out.

SOUNDS

The console does not introduce breath.

The equalizer is effective and fairly well calibrated, no disproportion between the gain of the tracks.

Is transparent? Hence the opinion diverged, months I think it makes it a little too much treble, not break your ears, but it is below the Allen & Heath particularly dynamic.

Else, the headphones, the sound is a little "cavernous" as say the old, even with
several headphones, which is a bit confusing.

OVERALL OPINION

I recently. This is not my main mixer is an Allen & Heath Xone 62 former design. The Pioneer I bought used 'just because, when you start playing club unfortunately found it most of the time, so this is a second console to get my bearings. I was able to test the Pioneer with a competitor of choice.

Yes I was trying a few: TSB, Gemini, Vestax, Freevox, A & H, Ecler ....

Overall the table is ergonomic, not bad ...

As I said above, it was not breathing, the sound is OK but could be improved.

For cons, the black point of this table is that finish. The screen is clean but feels a little made in china (although manufactured in Malaysia). Moreover apart from the buttons equalizers track that are very well; any other console buttons are poor plastic bottom lines was similar in Beringher and much cheaper. So yes I see here that the Pioneer Pro will say "Yes, but who cares finish is secondary as long as the general operation is good" is not wrong. Nevertheless, when we see how this new console was sold well I think it is outrageous limit.

Despite all that, I bought used to 500 € and in very good condition. So yes I will ever be the choice simply because it is not my main mix and I use this DJM700 from time to time (and my budget allows me to have two consoles, because we are all dependent our budget). Warning I'm not saying that this console is bad, it is not bad, but the value for money is not good (with a new price not at all justified, but it is valid for mixers Pioneer). So as a main mixer, there are better and no more expensive consoles ...

The DJM 700 K from Pioneer has effects built right into it like the phaser, flanger or crush effects and there are also 4 different patterns for sampling like the pitch up, pitch down, reverse and roll. I was very happy to use these effects because I was going to be upset with the price of this unit until I had the chance to use it live and work with the effects. I was even able to assign some of the buttons to my effects in my computer to trigger them live.

UTILIZATION

Setting up this mixer is simple, but if you plan on getting into MIDI and using it with a software program then you might want to make sure you read up on it first because some of the software applications with work with it better than others. But if you want to just use it as a controller then you should be fine in almost any DJ software. If you are a performing DJ I think this is a good mixer to have because of its live functions like effects and quality. If you are not really a live performer than you can get something so much better for a lot cheaper!

SOUNDS

I have used this mixer with my old vinyl turntables and then a few days later turned right around and used my CDJ turntables with it and it worked great with both set up. It can handle anything and at this price it should be able to. Pioneer always has well made products and I have been using them for 10 to 15 years and they have never steered me wrong.

OVERALL OPINION

The DJM 700 is a little heavier than I expected at right around 15 pounds but it is not very big. Also it doesn’t come with a case so you will need a good gig case or “hard case” for it.

I do some part-time DJing for a couple local clubs. I do play some guitar but still have a long way to go in that area. I have fun with mixing, though, and can get creative with it.

I purchased the black model for this mixer so it would go with the rest of my equipment. Classic look, no surprises there.

Since DJing is not my career but just a part-time gig on weekends, I really don't have the inclination or cash to buy the most expensive equipment out there. When I purchase new equipment, I go for the mid-range price but I still want good quality equipment. I achieved better results than I would have thought when I bought my Pioneer DJM – 700 last year. It really has top of the line features for it's under $1000 price tag and that was unexpected.

I had tested both the DJM – 800 and the DJM – 1000 models before deciding that these were just a little too expensive for me at the time. When I tested the 700, I was pleasantly surprised to found the sound quality to be every bit as good as the higher priced models. It has the same 32-bit digital signal processing and 96kHz/24-bit sound at several hundred dollars cheaper.

This mixer also has a heavy duty roundup of top notch effects including 13 beat effects, a fantastic roll sampler and has 49 separate controls with its MIDI function. The effects frequency filter with high or low pass filter options is an excellent addition to the Pioneer line and has a really short learning curve because it's so easy to use.

The only thing I would wish for (but can live without at this price) is better harmonic mixing abilities but other than that, it has surpassed my expectations.

The unit is sturdily made and will last a long time if properly cared for. No complaints there whatsoever.

All in all, I would heartily recommend this mixer to anyone except maybe the big names in the business. It does everything I need and then some and I paid less than a grand for it.

This review was originally published on http://www.musicgearreview.com

I think it is missing the digital inputs, just to really 100% digital ...
Can be for the good, the phono inputs should have been positioned differently, but there are already three is not bad.

UTILIZATION

The interface is excellent, nothing to say at Pioneer is well studied and it works.

SOUNDS

Bark .... it's cold. The filter is horrible ... really insist, more zero filter can not!
It is for this reason that I sold it, and I went to the Xone 42.

The effects pioneer ... as usual, not change what we do not mark ... apart from the echo and reverb else is useless, and of poor quality. Recognizes that a flanger for miles!

The equalizer is really bad, not even - infinity. Are cut 3EQ -> the sound always comes ... will explain why. I still prefer the DJM400 for EQ.
When the sound goes through the equalizer is not to die for one more time.

OVERALL OPINION

I kept one month. The DJM 400 I had had at least 2 / 3 years. This time I am very disappointed by Pioneer, which made very good CD players, but bad mixer (except for ergonomics -> it's convenient and that's good)

It's still a nice table, but for the price it is not worth it. I can not wait to try DJM 900/2000 to see if I have the same opinion.

After 2 months of use of the new Pioneer table Here's a little advice.

Like the DJM 600 and 800 it enters a conventional rack, which is trs apprciable

The effect section is effective and trs is not noted tThe great advantages of the "frequency" really apprciable trs. We can thus resort to an echo only on low which can help in the amounts to drive up the sauce ...

The filter effect can be used by the same knob as the frequency section giving aisne the same opportunity as the DJM 800.

Everything is intuitive and have fun trs trs quickly with this new toy!

UTILIZATION

The race is configurable fader also.

MIDI not trying.

Pioneer quality components, no complaints.

Operating instructions clear and sufficient

SOUNDS

Not a breath was noted, single black spot, you can not connect the CDJ in digital, there is indeed that of digital outputs and no inputs for turntables.

OVERALL OPINION

I tried the 800 and the Denon DN-X1500 before buying it, I did not ultimately hsit even if the effects of the 800 colors can provide more I only use the filter (available on the 700) and the price diffrence me even when cooled.

Available in two colors (black and mtal), I prfre the gray because I saw that the black paint on the 800 had a tendency to come off but APRS, free to everyone

I would do this same choice without hsiter one second, with spcificits, the 700 + to bring a true pioneer mixers while maintaining the quality and expertise pioneer

The table is in 12 "and fits perfectly into my flight case 2 format CD player flat + console.

The effect section is excellent, before I buy it with hsit Eclerc Nuo5 and other brands. But the Pioneer effect as fully exploited, these are effects that with a little Entran gcher used without the music even see Fawn transparent Integrates perfectly with the music and exploit to the fullest.

The frequency is a big plus, without going into the polmique DJM-700 vs. DJM-800, I have the function prfre + frequency filter that sound color, the crush is found in the effect section and is also more parameter. The only effect that the call is REALLY missing the pan. Pan + damage would have a frequency Tabass!

UTILIZATION

We can not simple, no frills features, a visual tour of the buttons is enough to use the table.
Effects for a few Entran prfrable is, unless the goal is to empty the dancefloor

I use it in discothque and radio, I do not know how deejay DIFFERENT passs are above everyone apprcie whether for use with vinyl or CD turntables.

SOUNDS

The sound is identical the DJM-400 and 800, no blowing out. Although it is not sre from analog so do not type in the red, the saturation is instantaneous.

By the receiver against the headphone is mdiocre and generates a significant blow on the DJM-400 is the same

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for three months, she underwent adj a bunch of hours of use. Before I used a DJM-400, the use became too limit: 2 channels, no XLR discothque is essential.

In fightcase it heats a little, but not enough to cook an egg.

The report qualitprix trs is good for those who seek a versatile table and quality will satisfy everyone for a fair price.

Yes it is I think I finally rack lai yet to fly
Yes RCA jack XLR
Yes 3-Band EQ means
Yes there are normal effects ...

UTILIZATION

Yes the setup is apreciate
yes simple function
I have not read the manual

SOUNDS

While I regret my purchase just before I had a DJM 3000 level which was nice clean and powerful sound with digital this is too robotic or no heat at this unfortunate and potato this disaster! of this table are provided for in the techno music I am Hausa General as soon as his touch has rnb salsa and I am connected the eastern and the flat that she has a very spécefique kind of music I will return as soon as possible!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a month
I like the ease of use
I had a TSB and a DJM 3000
Not justify you pay as pioneer dab!

It vrement a very good restaurant, when ComenC to master a few heads the functions you can do stuff a lot, after 3 months of use, I know it well (well I think), anyway I am very alaise when I mix.

veiled
mixouille good!
ByCream

4-way, 3 phono and line
between RCA, 1 XLR master if the RCA
send a return in jack

in short, everything has said t

100% noon (except micro knob and knob OITE effect I think) so it's best!

UTILIZATION

Console trs trs enjoyable handling, everything comes to hand

we always say: the Pioneer cross fader and it's shit, do not abuse it! ca am pretty good road, it does not seem less sturdy than the faders xones. If you normally mix, there's no problem (and can be replaced for cheap at worst)

SOUNDS

I leave Allen & Heath, Rodec, rane and company ... and therefore j'tais mfiant compared to its
I wanted to test a numrique mix (I mix on technics)

gnral the sound is good, even good trs
Not as good as the master of xones, but worth it to rane (empathy)

EQ curves are well trs tudies, we feel the product pro!

the filter is nice (dailleurs I think it's better to have a single over the DJM800 and there are four, and on which I think we find ourselves quickly to mix filters and touch the EQ; thanks ca judicious use its EQ and filter accessories)

talking about the effects: I did not use effects before, and I never touch a pioneer until now!

basically, we use the roll (sampler), the echo and delay (the limit) ...
other effects (crush, flanger and company ...) I do not see a place on a WHOLE zik
the rverb is despicable
the filter (the box effect) is nice

and filter "top" is effective it will say, enough rsonance load, it can give cool stuff
a choice of filtered or select the path in the box effect, or filtered, the effect is applied (this is one of intrts major and a novelty on the table ; ca gives neat stuff)

Briefly, in conclusion: the effect is nice, used judiciously to customize the mix, but its mix of shield type effects flanger, delay that do end up more ...

there is reserve of gain, do not ride in a red right away, as some might say (if only one goes up the master instead of earnings)
not audible when the saturation meter approach and is in the red

OVERALL OPINION

Quality price ratio: yes it's a bit expensive, but the box is indeed INTEGRATED
quality of manufacture: allen below, but still honorable
edit 2 months APRS console me happy as always: perfect ergonomics, an excellent summation of the audio, the best meter to any console dj etc ...

3 phono inputs
5 between Line / cd
XLR and RCA
Ajut possibility of another box effects
of not digital but not important

The box is indeed interresting trs. Found any effects pioneer (Echo, Delay, Transform, Filter, Flanger, Phaser, Reverb, Robot, Chorus, Roll, Reverse Roll, Roll Up & Roll Down), while these effects can be filtered using a filter numrique . What is interresting trs on the echo!

UTILIZATION

Trs easy to use. Make sure you train to use effects and not abuse it!
I have not read the manual. Maybe I read it to use MIDI focnctions

SOUNDS

Trs good sound output!

Qualiseurs good curve!
Adjustable fader curve (2 positions) but there is almost no difference between the two rglages.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 3 months and I can tell you it's a small bomb!

Before that I had a table DJX700 (good for beginners) then numark 5000FX (good box effect and value quality price) and so now djm700.

For the price I got a 850 to US fdi trs so good deal! I really hsit with the DJM800 but as the 700 came out I took it. But the two tables are almost identical.

Having two CDJ800mk2 I took the djm700 in gray but I find the black best. It's a matter of taste.

Most: box effects, ITS DIGITAL FILTER, the qualiseurs, release of his, everything!
The -: Adjust the fader curve can be pretty average and also the screen a bit small (relative to the DJM800)

I would make this choice without any problem or I can be verais to buy an Allen & Heath Xone

It's really a good table trs! If you want to try the live aisne but the week I live in Lille

Edit APRS 1 year of use:
No malfunction with enough rgulier use. Qualisers faders and are like new.
With mixer on diffrent table (DJM800, Djm1000, Xone 92), I would say that is a djm700 trs good product!

Is Rack?
NO

What is the type of connection (RCA, Jack, XLR ...)?
1 x RCA master, XLR master output 1, output RCA Cab

An effects section intgre is it? ...
yes, a high pass filter + Low pass allocated to each tract

UTILIZATION

Yes the setup is very simple, quick start.

The usual function is very intuitive, we found it easily and it was just a short hand-carry the pioneer c!

Personally I have not opened the manual, but it looks very complete and clear.

SOUNDS

No breath on that table ...

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a month

What I like most: his pass and low pass filter and the high quality of the faders and pots.

For my part I touch 950 euros, I think the report quality discount, c on c but not given the pioneer and the quality is to go!

With the experience I remake this choice without hesitation, that table is a compromise between IDAL DJM600 (which is old my taste) and djm 800 (pa vrement expensive and more of stuff from the 700. ..).
The materials pioneer is honing but there is never any surprises!

it has all the characteristics necessary basics such as sisters, there's just the box and effect changes, and sound a little filtered.

UTILIZATION

configuration simple, clear manual, all is accessible.

SOUNDS

transparent, breath in the headphone (even without sound), shame about the high-end product. Equalizer not working, do not cut completely.

Attention Friends: lack of energy and potato in power.

it is too low despite setting 0-db ... otherwise you have to have amps to hell, to reach a level.

OVERALL OPINION

1 week of use, I tried the djm 600, djm 3000, djm 800 IT ... THEY have the power .. the truth.
I like anything on the table, I regret my purchase, because the key to me is the power and it is not there you ...
The DJM 700 is too low, lack of potatoes, punch .. I recommend ..
The price is too expensive. I will sell it quickly and add 300 euros and buy the Djm 800 (the real table).

For all that is typical to refer to the Pioneer site.
The big plus is the balanced XLR output, the output and the output BER BOOTH adjustable.

UTILIZATION

The table is very intuitive, the buttons and fader properly placed and is very easy to use, including some effects.
The manual is still in its packaging.

SOUNDS

The sound output is very good, no breath.
However, it is true that it lacks a bit of output power master.
The equalizer is well balanced. It does not kill total, only-26dB but I prefer that. Before I had a DJM-400 that was in total kill, I think it distorts the sound too when it lacks any part of frequency.

As against the level of the headphones, there's a blast you hear when there is no track playing. Fortunately, this does not mean longer in use, even when the volume of the track is low.
The headphone output is powerful enough, however.

EDIT: the breath at the headphone output is only present in the power of the table. Just press once on the headphone cue, and the breath disappears, so very minor problem.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought the new DJM-700S Thomann to 719 € TTC in August 2011. It's been a week since I use it.

Previously I had a djm-400.

Most:
- Easy to use.
- The different outputs.
- The box effect.
- The color silver.
- The overall quality workmanship.

The -:
- The breath of the headphones when no track read (EDIT: but disappears as soon as we once supported one of the headphone cue).
- The slight lack of power of the master output.

The price / quality ratio is very good, especially for € 719, which allows us to access a table with 4-way effects, balanced output and the whole very good.
Certainly I would do this choice, now it remains to test the reliability over time (since it only been a week I use it), but I do not care, Pioneer's reputation should not be missing to this model.

See the site of Pioneer

UTILIZATION

Easy to use I have almost never touched the manual. The manual is clear. All functions are easy to use.

SOUNDS

It introduces a very slight hiss in the headphones at high volume. The equalizer is relatively efficient.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 1 year and a half I already tested the Numark and Korg the + Sturdy table design the genius effect box least - a bit of breath faders could be a little stronger The table is relatively cheap when compared to the price of the DJM 800, which adds only a few supplements. I highly recommend for appointment as Pioneer and its box-effect!
