All user reviews for the Pioneer CDJ-850

Bought new since early September.
I had tried, cdj 100s, cdj 200, cdj 400, cdj 800 mk2, cdj 900 and CDJ 1000 MK3.
I am very happy, very powerful for mp3, no crash nor other individual, of course rekordbox use becomes essential .. pr optimal use of turntables.
Tested 6 hours club, just without cd key usb and hard drive, nothing to report, reliable product.
The whole mix is essential in this deck, a lil less for display. But its still correct and legible.
the price is too dear as always with Pioneer, but the quality and accuracy is o appointment.
with this choice I will ever experience without problem.

For how long have you been using it? 1 day

They are super ractivent, very specific on the loop in and out adjust is nice too, depending on USB and CD very fast

Compared with the 900 except the screen tilted ProDJ Link and they have nothing to envy





&% &% &% &% Terrible

* For how long have you been using it?
hold for 5 days (Techsono Purchased on Sunday night, received Tuesday morning)
* Did you try many other models before getting this one?
yes: Gemini CDJ 600 (in my possession), CDJ 100 (at a party), CDJ 1000 (at a party)
* What thing do you like most/least about it?
The +: jog very accurate, excellent vinyl mode, seamless loop, ergonomics of the beast, precise and pleasant screen, USB Management is really excellent, instantly read the USB
the - the price is always difficult to spend so much on a plate, but the quality is there. Too bad she is not black she would be in harmony with my table but I understand the marketing coup of pioneer
# What is your opinion about the value for the price?
Good for now, it is certainly expensive, but it must know what you want with this board I am comforted in the evening, the quality is my master password so I do not regret it
# Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?
Time will tell, but so far no regret, but happiness

- For how long have you been using it?
4 months
-Did you try many other models before getting this one?
CDJ 200, CDJ 400 6 months CDJ 800 MK1 and MK2 club CDJ 1000MK3 1 year, CDJ 900 in the club, a club CDJ 2000

- What is so special that you like best?
USB (management incomparable with CDJ 400: 1000 Faith better), precision (not seen any difference with the 1000), waveform (as well as the 1000 mk3) rekordbox (really huge classed as music on the PC), fast (better than 1000MK3), playlist management live

- What is so special that you like least?
No waveform on the cd not scanned (such as 1000 and burning MP3), no hotloop (even a little would've been cool if the one received on a loop you lose)
gray! BPM without the decimal point (we will not make me believe that it is complicated to do!), no digital output

- Bullet points!
Automatic loop section is really sucks! even with my feet I'm better. When the music is very rhythmic is correct (and again) but when the music would do what a melody, it's great no matter what! How much is the same as its loop on 1000MK3.
The HID (MIDI) UNUSABLE! Traktor does not recognize them! serato either. VDJ soles of one switch with USB or CD (although personally I would use if the booster shot but it's complicated). Thus totally useless! We'll have to wake up at Pioneer and we lay the drivers that go to the output of platinum to a faith! it starts to become a habit!

"My advice:
Better than the 800, 400 without problem. Same quality workmanship that 1000MK3 but not the same niche (if you're only CD, stick with 1000, otherwise it's an evolution really !!!). Finally and in conclusion: not to buy to mix with a soft but very very good to mix mp3 (rekordbox is truly monstrous!) = Awaiting Update from Pioneer
-What is your opinion about the value for the price? Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice?
To correct for an authentic pioneer. Some default, but really close to their upscale. I would do this biensur choice but I will still get me a pair of CDJ 2000 when I had enough!

I've had it a week.

I've had cdj 100s, 200, 400, 800 Mk2, Mk3 1000.

The CDJ 850 is as fast as the 800 or 400 for Mk2 read cds.
No worries with a USB drive (4GB tested), fast and clear in the information.

More finesse in the choice of pitch (6%, 10%, 16%, 100%), a 800 Mk2.
Otherwise, it is a more modern 800 Mk2 with a USB connection and software for use with rekordbox computer.

I have not seen any negative points, so to is the price.
I will do it again without hesitation choice.
For when we tasted the reliability and the pleasure of working for Pioneer, it does not change creamery.
