Having long been kings of digital DJing, Pioneer have moved their expertise into mobile mixers with the Pioneer DJM5000. There are so many world firsts here but the key to them all is that the DJM5000 is a 24-bit mixer with dedicated zone output, advanced talk over, sound card and built-in sound maximiser. Mobile DJs have never seen such an advanced feature set on a 19 inch mixer before.

On top of this, the DJM5000 has a three-way USB audio interface which means that you can hook a PC straight up to the mixer with a normal USB lead without any need for an external USB audio interface. And the cherry on the cake has to be that the DJM5000 is fully MIDI mapable for software control. 61 different knobs and buttons on the mixer can transmit control data via MIDI signal over a single USB connection with your PC to any MIDI mapable DJ software.

The DJM5000 shows that Pioneer are willing to keep innovating and pushing barriers. It’s guaranteed to be a sure-fire hit when it hits racks, pubs and clubs towards the end of September.
