    I use it for several years. I just switch to the nexus 900 and CDJ 2000 so I took the opportunity to give my opinion.

    It's Pioneer: all comes to hand, the DJM 400 is a "small DJM 800" with a very good box effect. I just regret the switch the mic is not very practical use (open mic you forget).

    The CDJ 400 is the 1st tural platinum Pioneer truly digital: She launches "clickable" knob used on all the jog is small but very efficient and usb connection for MIDI nickel.
    It integrates a sound card which simplifies connections with Traktor.

    There the USB port facade that is a bit long if you have big keys.
    All in a custom flight in the colors of the brand.

    For me, a very versatile as well rgy adapted for the mobile disco, pro, beginner, using apps, emergency rgy ..... in short, a good product and especially compact and ger!

    The price quality ratio is relatively good for the Pioneer.

    Hi,
    I use a pair for 1 year, I use the 99% with the USB port, 2 cl identical USB 8GB each and go (loading 30s), large bags of CDs in the attic!
    I struggled at the beginning because there was respect for rules to name the MP3, but greatly pioneer arrang the thing with firmware 1.30.
    My usage is intensive, not a single bug! I like the ergonomics, I have no comment ngative formulate, and the effects are top (roll, auto loop 4 times, wow !!! ...) contrary to this ..... DJM600!
    I have used in the past but the CDJ1000 USB port ....
    I would do this purchase gladly pending future discovery of pioneer!

    Small plates for small prices

    I had CDJ 400 for 3 years from 2009 to 2012.

    They were the first plates I had. I was told directly invest in Pioneer matter reliability and robustness that I have not regretted it.

    What I liked most:
    - USB Playback
    - Jog wheel with built-in effects
    - General Design
    - USB with mapping on Traktor (provided maj firmware)

    I did not really like:
    - Jog too small, does not "pro"
    - Accuracy of pitch, could do better

    For the time I had paid $ 750 unit that was cheap (special offer Thomann) and I do not regret my choice. The advantage with the Pioneer is that it's like Apple laptops, value takes time to descend. So I've sold three years later to 680 euros each!

    Very good tu…

    Very good turntables to start the mix at low prices!

    This is a very good turntable, which has nothing to envy to new releases (cdj 350). it has a USB port which is very practical, embarks effects .. perfect for working on good bases. Of course it has nothing to do with CDJ 1000 and even less with a 2000, but it is a very boenne platinum.

    How long have you been using?
    I use it for 4 years and I've never had any problems.

    Did you try many other models before buying it?
    I had DJ Gemini MPX-40 previously, the reactivity of keys is much more accurate with the Pioneer.

    What is so special that you like most and least?
    Most: a first plate with auto loop, and very easy to use, quick start.
    Least: watching the new models is the lack of hot cue or sample, screen a bit small.

    How do you rate the quality / price?
    Pioneer has always been expensive but the quality is the appointment

    With experience, you do again this choice?
    Yes, for platinum compact easy to carry and very adequate for the "Home DJ".

    How long have you been using? 4 years and no failures

    Did you try many other models before buying it? not

    What is so special that you like most and least? It is a compact board that is not at all ridiculous next to a CDJ2000, this is the only platinum ailleur has 3 effects Jet - Roll - Wah that I use very often that I should trouble to separate. USB Master tempo Vinyl options are very useful. The accuracy of the plateau and excellent design I really like to summarize this is a big favorite!

    With experience, you do again this choice? Yes!

    I use it for a year, I had the denon dns 1200 before, I prefer this one because it is really accurate all mp3's happening and what's really the only weak point as no hot cue but it s good adapts.

    I remake that choice without problem.

    Good turntable

    Pioneer CDJ-400Published on 08/04/12 at 07:53
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    I tested other decks and other brands I can not find such a precision that these plates (pitch and jog). Of course having tested the cdj 900 850 or 2000, that the board is larger, the accuracy is even better.
    loop auto shifts quickly but catchability.
    Fast loading of cd or usb
    Good effects (I do not use those Vynil mode, less useful) and I do not use vinyl mode (paz of srcatch) just to make a little backspin
    Small negative point: the management of a usb hard drive, do not think about and use of a usb stick or 2GB max.
    On my pair of CDJ400, I cons by a recent problem, can not eject the cd on a platinum (she is 4 years old), I expect an estimate for repair

    I've used three years and then resold for CDJ 850
    I had the CDJ 800 MK2, the CDJ 200 CMX 3000 and before the CDJ 400
    Very good small plate with a palette of pretty cool effects,
    Ergonomics and reliability Pioneer ^ ^
    Only downside: crash with regular MP3 that are not encoded properly despite the latest update
    Avac the same budget that the time (1309 € per pair), this choice I would do without hesitation

    Good machine!

    I've owned this model for 4 years, I have sold since I moved to CDJ 2000.

    They have never disappointed me! They are complete, compact and relatively strong!

    The only negative in regard to the mix, it's time to load memory sticks (greater than 2GB) that is slow!

    I recommend it to all the DJ's and beginners alike who do not want to put an exorbitant price.

    They are used since 2010

    We had CDJ200 before it has always elsewhere.

    I do not use them often myself, they go on Loc or used by other dj on our contracts. In two years, there is one whose optical block had to be changed. Other than that no worries with.
    I think they offer a lot of possibilities but have not affected the accuracy and the other top models of the brand. Basically if you are already general public and that there is more to the songs past and feel that for the technique and art of the mix, it is perfect.

    I do it again this election if the demand for rental of such increases in our cd player ...

    How long you use it?
    3 years

    Did you tried many other models before buying it?
    I shot for 20 years with Technic turntables MK (top), then I worked in parallel with Numark CD AXIS9 for 3 years.

    What is so special that you love the most, least?
    I made the mobile disco for 27 years now (40 night / year), the material evolves, so must monitor and this plate is enough for the mobile disco, is the USB, and can connect a hard disk, it is said to mix the tempo, nice effect, it does not take place and super reliable, I've never had a failure.

    If she were still on sale but certainly there is more than an opportunity now. To date I go on about nine CDJ900 I already tried.

    But I call to everyone that the important thing is to have a deck that will be enough to yourself, there is no point to have CDJ2000 decks like if you start, do not burn the steps ...

    I used these plates 4 years and quality / price I must admit that I have so far not found anything better.

    I have owned CDJ100S, CDJ200, CDJ800 CDJ1000 and now cdj850.

    the + it is very robust even in FERIA (LOL) he is a bed and USB MP3
    the - to my taste is mainly because the set I was working on a coup in 1000 then 400 then 800 the set is faster and less bulk to the grip.

    exceptional value for money nothing to say

    I miss her sometimes because I play in places with little space.
