All user reviews for the Pioneer DJM-800

Hello everyone,

A console DJM 800 arrived in my loc Park, I unpack the matter is some details make me cringe:

- 2 mic channels, but only one common setting !!! Really rotten ...
- Setting serious, acute on the road and nothing else, it's super or medium?
- Average quality workmanship.
- A sound better than the 600 (there have not been many bad).
- Fader and crossfader very hard.
- She not bad breath.
- The connection is economic.

I plug the youngest, the sound is Boffe, the average manufacturing quality and IS DEFECTIVE, ROUTE MICRO CRAQUE, PRE-AMP IS HS !!!

Good going I but instead of an individual who buys it, I freak out !!!

My problem is that in a rental fleet reliability of the product is a number, I rent, I not praise?

I go but 3 of 10 to encourage Pioneer (he is doing better than the poor 600), if you bought a try before the small advises friends.

UTILIZATION

Simple, easy to learn, very nice to mix with.

SOUNDS

Very quiet, very effective. One of the best mixer of the decade in my opinion.

OVERALL OPINION

I do not use very little at all and even more these days because I work on the DJM 900.
It completely worth it because it has maximum functionality to the mix.

At the top, the reference for years.

I still have some regrets at the features:
- Can not adjust the resonance filters (sometimes a little too present)
- Can filter effect (an echo for example) without filtering music at the same time (unlike his sister DJM700)
- The Master side of the headset is connected to the output Master1 not the REC, so that the master level plays on the headphone, impossible to listen to the master in the headphones when the level is low, for example . Bit annoying club table because often high, but mobile disco it can be annoying (at least to adjust the level to max 7/10 instead of 0 in light meter, and down behind the system, but loss of accuracy in light meter and loss of sound quality). This is valid for all consoles Pioneer 4 ways.

UTILIZATION

Very simple configuration, everything is easily accessible, Pioneer ergonomics nothing to say.

SOUNDS

Despite some negative reviews about the sound, I find the console completely transparent, without breath, no change in the sound. In addition, one of the only console market with digital inputs, I admit to not having felt the obvious difference, but it avoids multiple conversions NAC NAC.

OVERALL OPINION

I bought used some time ago because I wanted a sturdy table and ergonomic, so Pioneer came out ahead. I did not find any interest in using the brand new consoles because I mix in CDJ, so I do not need the integrated sound card. Apart from that, I find the DJM850 lower due to the elimination of the digital inputs (beat despite the effects color quite nice), and DJM900 little better, because the only differences are the improved effects (I use shortly), the quantize on the effects (+ +), Ethernet jack to also have a Cue from rekordbox (cable-rca jack does the same thing on a free channel), and 4 positions per input switches ( + +).

If you want a table like this, I really advise you to buy this one, used as the new range and the emergence of controllers, many people sell it at prices that finally become quality / price!

I put 10/10 only for the price that I paid!

Everything has been said about which patterns.

UTILIZATION

Pioneer does not belie its aura of quality. The faders are solid, the knobs too. I had a little fear on the coating lacquer which could have easily wear but it is nothing other than a few fingerprints, AC will be the only concern! This console also features adjustable crossfader and headphone handy.

SOUNDS

The equalize is correct but rather at the box of color and sound effects that we enjoy. Ultra accessible and adjustable in the blink of an eye, the sound quality is present.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been two years since I'm on it, I was 10 years on a DJM500. Simply place your hands on one of these models to understand why there are references in the field. Indestructible and easy to access. The only downside is its price, high but you have to at least 10 years old and meet new models, the DJM800 yet filled all the necessary functions perfectly.

Yes the console rack is identical in size to the 600
the number of votes c is the same as the 600 but little more than think the master is no longer next to the other fader is at the top he saw the master meters which is faster when you mix the acroché
effect of the box is well designed there is a digital display that parameter much like the 600, with some effects as well as the reverse rev they are really thinking
But I will still wait till it drops a bit before investing is a bit expensive is finally normal c and c is the launch of qualitée

UTILIZATION

Having used a djm 600 for me before getting started is fairly simple sy it is faster for the short time I've tried it in the lounge siel
we find the same function as the cross 600 is still better, will satisfy those who scratch and I think others will be delighted to discover the new effects and more and move the master

SOUNDS

The table has a good sound c is really a good product it just get between the 1000 is really expensive and where to invest in boxes of 600 and aditional effect that begins to age a bit, now the ideal and versatile tools is the expected lower prices

OVERALL OPINION

I've tried in the siel with 2 cdj 800 c which attracted me is the grip the cross which is not bad at all, the Master moving (finally) because it had to get a lot of you who are mixing with the 600 or 500 to find the master misplaced when using the voice 4 and then the different effects and the display is well done
quality / price ratio should not be out of illusion in some weeks it will be a 1600 euros, it's worth because there is all the investment made on design and construction that must be profitable but for the next year it should fall well
and c is the light that it drops I bought the

DJM 800 bought last month. It is a vritable killing ...
Console DJM 600 format, it is the rack if achte Querre to put in 19 inches.
- 2-way and 4-channel mic music (ph - line and digital)
- Output on XLR and jack symtrique 6.35 assymtrique for dpart / return and exit the cabin.
- The eq is not paramtrique (all fawn, I have rarely seen a DJ mixer). It cuts the low / medium / high until-26dB, but the dates do ls that a + 6 (???), finally limit the damage to DJ a little nag at the edges ...
- A double Intgr multi-effect: the walk! left a blue call "color FX" which features a LPF Filter, Notch Filter one (which looks more like a band-pass for me, a bit Krusher, and a pitch. Everything RULES is with the color knob on each channel .... Although jou pioneer.
- A second multi-purpose, like the 600 on algorithms with good year. We have available: delay, echo (with maintenance of the feedback of the cutoff Unlike the DJM 600), reverse delay, auto pan, transfer, filter (with LFO), flanger, PAHs, Robot (with pitch an LFO), reverb (with maintenance of cutting off the sustain effect), and Back Roll Roll + a send / return for connecting all types of multi-purpose filter or eg ...
The sampler of the DJM 600 is here replaced by the function t Roll back and Roll. It is well thought out and much faster than the grate 600. Imagine a loop as you can dcouper (in the tempo up to 1 / 64. ... Terrible To this end, I nanmoins prfr an on / type of push is to say that when the support effect lights, and when released, the effect s'teint. It's handy when you wish to make an on / off F trs is fast. It is only dtail and fawn any, the mixer n'xiste yet lol.
Small BMOL also for the reverb which really is not super clean ...
- For a console numrique, I find her really hot and dynamic, they have put the package on the A / D and D / A. At this price it may be logical.
- They also make pens console Fully MIDI is that the buttons and knobs are all automated.

UTILIZATION

- The config gnrale is really simple and intuitive. Not need the doc to understand. Everything is accessible and well located. The same master silent changes place from the 600 and now it is a rotating top right (we do not move more recklessly ...). We can also assign all channels to Croos fader.
Among the new features, note also the possibility to adjust the curve of growth and the cross fader. It's really because of a default of 600 to have silent type linear fader: the position is a well tended dja sound. L is corrected on the 800, you can choose a logarithmic progression as the Rodec / Ecler etc..

SOUNDS

- The console is transparent? Months, she is black lacquer ... lol.
The sound is really great my good taste. It is warm and well dynamics.
- No wind output.
- The qualiseur is it effective? ... read above

OVERALL OPINION

- I use my home for a month. I do it again the same choice without hsiter second. This is the new DJ in REFERENCE happens ..!!!
- The price may be a bit expensive to buy, but I think it is justified.

Hello, DJM800 purchased today. then yum yum ...
Is Rack?
yes, but the options are quite expensive I crois.www.fxsystem.fr
How many lanes, bus attendant, departures, returns ...)?
4 channels + mic, digital inputs, good just read the features lol.
A departure, a return.
What is the type of connection (RCA, Jack, XLR ...)?
rca yes (I / O)
jack yes (I / O send / return)
Yes XLR (out)
The parametric equalizer is it?
no, the setting made a cut but not kill, at least for me.
Otherwise the settings are very precise and clean, it cuts really well anyway, with effects anyway There's colors that make the case the above!
An effects section is it integrated? ...
oooh yes, better than 600 in any case, the function for the effects bpm is terrible, even the sound cut the bpm takes over when the sound reviend.
To see the effects of available features.
What is the accuracy of the sample (bits / kHz)?
24/96, exit 41 or 96
Automation is supported? *
I do not understand the word automation sorry, I hold the rest ... lol
What type of sync are supported? ...
bin guys, MIDI sync ALL knobs for use ext kind Ableton Live / Reason.

UTILIZATION

The general configuration is it simple?
yes, certainly, no doc, and all functions ok, nikel!
The usual functions are they easily accessible?
yes, the mix of basic problem-free, color effects available direct effects
on the right application 5 to 10 min of adaptation.
The manual is clear and sufficient? ...
french (or other), clear patterns, some have read them 2 times lol, but in the essemble is well treated

SOUNDS

The console is transparent?
yes, I took myself clear, lol.
Seriously, the sound is a very good ear, I'm not pro audio pros, but we are pleased the ear.
She introduced the breath?
no, nikel
The equalizer is effective? ...
as mentioned above is the cut for me, not the kill, something arranged by color effects. Let's not kill ca ca cut pro but I understand, the curve cutoff is well studied

OVERALL OPINION

How long have you use it?
lol, one day
What is so special that you like most and least?
I like everything, there's even with training, possible when the sound is off but it eg echo, echo the lead very far (+ 30 sec) in the tempo with the other piece with the tap tempo (I also understand the lol).
Have you tried many other models before buying it?
bin models, unless for the cd but yes, the key anyway.
How would you rate the quality / price?
At first it is rather difficult, but after that happens when the music very well give, give, give ...
With experience, you do again this choice? ...
ooooh yes! pioneer thx, I see what "ESSEC mix!"

Finally, for anyone not understand what I say too much (although it's almost understandable) I'll make a video of the beast this weekend on my site, www.djleo.org.

While appointment at the site by Monday / Tuesday and I can tell you ca be worth it, as for other videos

OVERALL OPINION

Dj 3 months of use discothque 7 / 7: (we are 3 DJs)

What I like:
- The race adjustable fader
- Ergonomics
- The Roll, beaoucoup better than the sampler.
- The effects color, fairly well if the fucking mem rsonnance is not adjustable on the low pass filter / high. I AIM a notch too.
- The phaser enough russi
- The step trs readable.
- The quantization effects for shorter and longer.
- Buttons on selection of the quantification of the effect that rpondent better than a 500/600.
- CUE buttons.
- The master rotating top.
- The MIDI.
- The talkover placed intelligently this time.
- The cumulative effects.

What I dislike:

- Rubber knobs! Is shit! 3 months and I have a dj death. Just as a dj have some long nails and they are screwed up!
- No Master 2!
- The connectivity and no limits trs trs spaces.
- Assignment of the buttons crossfaser too big, too difficult to allocate over night.
- GAIN buttons too small!
- Taking micro facade is not XLR.
- The reverb is still zero!
- The fader start! Does anybody use it? ?
- The color crush is a bit too powerful.
- The EQ nag not musical, it's finally good a Pioneer!
- The cross fader curve, the curve of the medium does not use it would have been better if the signal is max at the center or better, an adjustable cross a curve.
- Switches Phono / Line can no longer do transform!
- The Send / return does not be accumulated with the master effect.
- The Roll is not the 3 / 4 time, it could be gnial.
- Sound is blah, no relief.
- That even when trs expensive for what it is.
- It is still not the caf!

SOUNDS

the price and a little high but for me the blow your
I would do the same choice

OVERALL OPINION

- I like everything in this table and more I find it pretty trs with all its little shining Lumire lol
- Before I mix on the gemini ouahhhh and ben! What a radical change have nothing to see is another approach to the mix.

- I do it again this choice without hsiter I'm really not that much of the purchase price to dpart rbuter me but as I troouver least CHRE Besides I am not Siter.

Now we understand why pioneer: the essence of the mix!!

I always buy something else but this year I decided that it will fly my mix cd + platinum.

It's true that when we seek the best or almost immediately revved up the €.

After TSB GEMINI NUMARK Behring ...

I am interested in products BY PIONEER DJ (required)

and I broke my pig (he used) for the DJM800.

THE ATOMIC BOMB and I do SERT only a few days!
SEEN IN TIME ...

Just a tip for other brands to copy the product and of course sell it cheaper than what the copy is often far from being a candle to the original!

OVERALL OPINION

I agree he'll have a few possible improvements to the mixer but it is of the order detail.

Here I bought this table certainly a cheap Euro 1550 and yes, very expensive, but a great tool especially in the clubbing 4 channel with effects as good mixer effects is rare, I do not see in Anyway the vestax 580, and the Ecler Evo 5.

This table is rack yes, 4 channel mixer, the knobs are well placed and is very easy to use I have not had to read the manual, and solid!! Do not listen to the advice above, I say a good product you buy in a shop seriously easy to criticize you love or you do not like Pioneer.

Sampling is of 48-96 kHz, the cross fader is adjustable with different types of curves, side effects are not a pleindre 13 parametric effects, plus 4 subterfuges.
The great advantage of this table to quelqun that mix to great effect is to add an efx 1000 the possibilities become incalculable.

UTILIZATION

Super simple setup nothing to say I put the max for that, it is easily accessible, ben ben manual I do not know what it is infact since I used it.

SOUNDS

The console is very clear I have never had any problems of breath, the preamp is nikel no probs.

Now I have found that the effect Crush really is not beautiful, harmonic it is pointless to have two effects filter is a good idea I used a lot, just the reverse roll that is not m'enfin it is terrible in small details.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 9 months, I love everything on this table, I like some of the effects are finally happening, I tried before buying Rodec mx-330 DJX-700.

The value for money is a bit pricey but you pay Here is the pioneer brand.

With the experience I would do this choice is very good for me clubbing and life tables becaufe in a mixing effects at this price there's nothing.

The negative note the price.

- Yes, this table is rack

- This is a 4 channel mixer

- It has RCA & XLR

- A double effect is bote intgre in the table: the effects "standard" + the Pioneer Sound Color FX (it is possible to combine the effects)

- The table supports MIDI, with 61 paramtres

UTILIZATION

- Gnrale configuration is very simple: the buttons fall naturally to hand and are trs use is intuitive.

- The usual functions are well positioned trs.

- The manual is clear trs, but It is not necessary to read it as the intuitive use of this machine.

SOUNDS

- The console is trs transparent: in EXAGRES, I would say it makes a better sound than the sources used.

- There is absolutely no breath intreoduit this table.

- The equalizer trs is powerful, and its effectiveness is complte bote by the double effects.

OVERALL OPINION

- I use this table for a month.

- The details I like most on this table are:
- The quality of sound
- The quality and diversity effects
- The ease of use (intuitiva)
- Design

There is no particularity dplaise me specially.

- Before, I tried an Ecler Nuo 3, DNX (3 channels) & a Reloop (3 channels).

- The ratio quality price is good, because it is a product of high quality (professional equipment).

- With the exprience, I would do this choice, without any hsitation.
