All user reviews of 5/5 for the Pioneer CDJ-800

Here I have to try the beast before ordering for a week and verdict
s' is the bomb and I find them even better than the 1000 mk2 which it functions less useful kind save those home points on a map frankly memory that will save more than a thousand points start on its memory card

Otherwise level adjustment s' is better faster than the 1000 to settle the start and stop of the plate seen that it is thanks to a button in place of two so overall this player is destine to dj spineless really take them for a technics cd player has the pure state the quick start function to return to the beginning of the Scratch on which every time the hand is redeposited on the board the only complaint I have is that s platinum is that it does not have the sound graph daytime viewing as the 1000MK2

If not outright purchase condones you don 'will not regret it believe me and yet I am a super tough gear levels but I have been really conquered

I purchased the unit from a local music store (Steve's Music) in Ottawa, Canada for 879.00$ CDN +Tax.



First off... The price of the original Pioneer CDJ-1000 CD Player is way more expensive than what most DJ's are willing to pay for a product of this nature. This is the ultimate alternative.

The Pioneer CDJ-800 gives you almost all the features of its big brother (the Pioneer CDJ-1000) at a fraction of the cost. It also gives you a few new features not found on their other units.

Here are some of the highlights:

- The automatic measured looping buttons are a very effective way to create the perfect loops as long as the bpm is properly calculated with the bpm counter.

- The digital output actually allows you to use the pitch control (unlike the CDJ-1000 that sets the pitch to 0 in digital mode).

- The new "Quick Return" feature lets you set a specific cue point and automatically brings it back to that initial point everytime you start scratching (a very useful feature for the trickster in you).

- The "Master Tempo" is not laggy like it's competition. Pioneer definately sports the tightest algorithm out there. I've tested almost every brand available and this one really shines in that aspect!

- The one touch reverse button lets you create amazing tricks and helps you decode songs with controversial backwards vocals.

- It reads all formats of cds I tried (up to 24x burns) unlike the Pioneer CDJ-3000 dual unit which gets real picky, stops, and gives error messages. They seem to have fixed that bug quite well.



Here are some of the very few things I disagree with:

- CD Text is not supported with this unit.

- The only pitch control ranges available are:
(+/-10%) & (+/-100%) It's a shame they didnt include (+/-6%) & (+/-16%).

- A tap button should have been installed to correct any wrong bpm count.

The construction of the unit is perfect in every way. The look, the buttons, the feel, the layout, the size (which is more compact than the CDJ-1000). Even the smell of it is appealing (as it gets pulled out of the box for the 1st time). It's surprisingly lightweight and it really looks like it's built to last. It's an all round sexy machine!!!


So if you are looking for a good solid and precise cd player, accept no imitations. The Pioneer CDJ-800 is the piece of gear for you!

I've been DJ'ing for 12 years and I've worked with almost every piece of gear out there, this is by far my best purchase.

Try one out at your local dealer and see for yourself, you won't be dissapointed.

Cheers!

C is the bomb I lay for 1 week only fault that I found c that it does not have the mp3 for fans of hip hop and scratch dj and rnb (like me) I recommend it c is a replica of a mk2 with effect + (reverse loop ...) j eSites between the final scratch stanton cd and I am not above the choices that I did the price is cheaper than the CDJ1000 (c the trick in less memory) the rest vor strong but given the resistance of 1000 ..... alor beginner dj not buy the m. .. choosing a product that he tell him j test the final scratch and CDJ1000 and the Denon are products that are equivalent but the 800 is - cheap prices and quality are the top c

The best moments of turntables!
me to have them since March 2003.
for me the most: the effect vinyl amazing! the perfect mix with two turntables, a sensitivity trs well done.
Cons: the tray nonrotating forces have other reflex one would want to have a much resembles a turntable ....
for the price over the cdj 1000 is the IDAL fontion mmorisation because the loop is not essential.
if I did not want a system that acqurir mix vinyl with MP3 (scratch or final type dvinyl2020) I keep ....
Good mix all.

-How long have you use it?

I bought OCCAZ: nine state, served two months (on ebay United States: 400 expdition fee included) 2 months ago. No worries, no bug, despite some violent backspin and scratch ...

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

Goodies: Getting started super fast. As t dja said (and this is not bullshit), in less than a quarter of an hour, you matrises almost all functions of this board! Otherwise, the oversized jog is central prcis. Reading CD-R and CD-RW and poses no problem (the same gnriques ...). Personally, the fact that this board does not gre mp3 format does not impede me. I find it superfluous, even useless show, a DJ turntable read the mp3: a must be a brothel for losing track of a hundred on a cd!

Cons: The least, will plutt level loops. Even if the loops are perfect, we can not do loops over 12 times. Otherwise the look seems a little too "plastic"!
- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?

I tried the CDJ-1000, to compare the two MODELS. The report qualitprix that the 800 is better. Basically, the 800 is the little sister of 1000: Less features, not essential ... forcment

- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...

Definitely! I'll even sell a turntable to buy me a deuxime. APRS Nowel Dad has passed ...

- How long have you use it?
I have been barely 24 h. ..

- What is the particular feature you like best and least?
the most:
- Getting Started with hyper intuitive. all features come to hand we have a go without the user manual.
- Looping perfect automatic and manual
- Jog large effective
- The "quick return" which returns to the cue point by simply pressing on the top shelf

Cons:
- Does not support CD-text
- No possibility of independently rgler time limit to start and stop

- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?
Pioneer CDJ 500 II, trs good machine, but a little too limited, Denon DNS100, good little as platinum and other "things" taking over the standalone player with pitch

- How do you report qualitprix?
A bit expensive, you pay the "Pioneer" on crit cts but it is still justified given the effectiveness of the bte ...

- With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
Without hesitation ...

It's been a while since I use them and my time is not so bad of the matter. I have no particular criticism to make on this little jewel: the loops are of a quality harsh environment, the handling and super fast sratch (although I very rarely used) in good quality.
I use them in the evening and use it with other DJ's attention when some hardware is not theirs ... They are always so solid Impeks foolproof, pioneer you might say !
The report seems qualitprix exellent. I test the CDJ 1000 and I find it does not justify its price, there are plenty of function but did we really need a good box was indeed a sampler and you're jou ... In addition they read the CDR-W, which is not the case for 1000.

DENON turntables seem quite as she read the most personal MP3 but I have not had privilge to test them.

I put 9 / 10 for the MP3 but otherwise great product to buy eyes closed.

I have this board for a year I dj command to stats, I did not have to rev high. For we must admit that when it's been 800 euro for a turntable Cherie Posed that one hot cue and no effect except that of scratching ... but what a scratch friends!

I try and nothing has been concurence to the precision that it is the pioneer in trouve.Il same applies with all the keys of the plate is the cue for example if prcis it allows new effects!

the pitch is one of prcsion also rgale + or - 0.05%! ideal for house mix of qualits.je not talking about the master tempo or does the pioneer has always refrence.
what appeals to me it is the least buckles that are frankly unusable lives (or the pitch is essential rctification)

no problem for her was a clear and powerful (for a cd ...)

to conclude I would say that the cdj 800 is a good trs platinum (Ascending accessible)
for DJs who seeks above all the quality in las basic functions.
things she can but she does well!

for those looking for more possibilities I would advise them knowing that the denon qans be the numark their precision is lower as the price elsewhere!!

- How long have you use it?
About 2 months.

- What is so special that you like most and least?
A scratch tearing, for ease and rapiditité Sampler slot, jogwheel extreme accuracy, look great (I own them in black), loops easy to create brilliant, exceptional accuracy of pitch ...
for less ben yen is not much from the fact that the loop slightly affects the tempo of the song but it's really not much to quibble!

- Have you tried many other models before buying it?
Jb Systems DJ5000, Pioneer CDJ 500S, numark.

- How would you rate the quality / price?
Ben in my case I am lucky to have them paid not very expensive (€ 590 on one visioshop.fr) Very good value for money.

- With experience, you do again this choice? ...
Without hesitation YES!!

- How long have you use it?

I use it for 5 months

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

The particularity of this stage and no doubt the precision of the scratch: put on the pitch with 100% master tempo! She does not move a muscle, no bugs on the horizon; perfect, and the pitch is prcis (0.05%: mix well and long as they like)
The cotsdcevant: a single recordable cue point and indeed a first for the plastic used all over the plate, a little junk ca f (buttons, tray, foot Anyway some aluminum will not have Does not the luxury price surtou o the Beast lol) but nothing alarming!

For my part, after two weeks I had ramen in a pioneer stage, as it mettai over 20s found the track and once the latter found his props .. the saturated serious! So one week in customer service (3 year warranty so cushy lol) and here we go again like clockwork .. then biensur Pioneer do not make a perfect machine proof I had a breakdown ds The beginning lol but it does change my opinion on this pa article (the failure should occur while a device electro)

- Have you tried many other models before acqurir?

I tried the Pioneer CDJ1000 MkII as well as, the good, without comment were black with the CDJ800 Kelka function and more!
I tried the Denon dns-3000 and the 5000 (like it is worth, the 5000 dot is the alpha track, shuffled to the fingers in a pa mix is ​​better) but otherwise I think cot Vs DENON PIONEER reliability are both from the trs good stuff .. diffnce is to do depending on the type of mix (to scratch: Denon and the mix: PIONEER) and j ' pa add that this is a coincidence that every club and every evening prstation electro (house techno trance tribal etc ...) are team of the Pioneer CDJ1000 locurence!

- How do you report qualitprix?

Oh here's the price in question Fache! Indeed, a turntable 600 for the rest of the ca cheap though, but when you love it does not count, and economy must always be veiled c lol
And when we toured the other brands while remaining within the same range of stuff .. you realize that Pioneer is certainly more above but when we toured the advice and testing pioneer: it becomes galemen account they are much audessus. then 1200 for 2 are correct!

Exprience with, you will do again this choice? ...

With the exprience I referrer that choice of course, but and yes there is a but, if j avai a bigger budget, j'hopterai CDJ 1000 MKII for that are just big sisters ... so CDJ800 if someone hsite between various product and Pioneer are included in the list .. more .. rflchissez not buy pioneer eyes closed! open even when the guy pay for the store, do not go over 1200 a customer! Thank you again later old man lol)

I used the CDJ800 for 6 months, excellent plate!
the buckles are really good when trs if we mix it all because they are unfortunately not perfect.
The pitch 10 / 100 allows you to make mind-blowing mixes and remains stable all the time, trs well to make long mix, and with the master tempo mix of songs you can pitch well without the shrill voices.
However, the master tempo is trs acclre performance when the song, but if you idle, the sound quickly becomes electronic (-5% means it gets dja mtallique). When I mix a song and as I slowed down -5% or more, I cut the master tempo.

As for the pitch, it is super stable, but not when prcis trs is -100 +%. Gnralement I hold the piece also prcisement as possible, then I refine the rglage with the other platinum (CDJ1000). I prfr that the pitch is less mportant (30 or 40%), or as the race of the cursor is more important.
Finally, the CDJ800 is a great deck, but I'm happy to have a CDJ1000 CDJ1000 avec.La can refine the timing of the pieces, and I do not think that having to mix 2 CDJ800 is the best choice, because of the difficulty of the pieces with the stalling pitch + -100%

Hello,
> I use the CDJ since eures + years. They are present ds ttes my sheets (versions to choose from the following budgets: CDJ1000 or 800).

> CD robust and reliable in the functions requested. The little sister of their envious CDJ1000 nothing. Ideal for mixing in excellent conditions, they offer all the guarantees if vs want to stay in budget - expensive than the 1000.

For those who mix across our small planet like me, this is a reference that is found in almost all providers.

> Since the advent of CD players-flat, I used the Pioneer. Not that I'm an aficionado of the brand, but by early next + "platinum reference" ds heads available data sheets.

> Good value for money, (quite rare pioneer !!!). This explains my final grade + high compared to the CDJ1000.

> Why change? Maybe for testing products from the competition. Always be his own opinion.
