Pioneer XDJ-700 Compact USB Player With Touchscreen

The Pioneer XDJ-700 is the most compact, rekordbox ready digital player which includes a touchscreen. In addition to this high level of portability the XDJ-700 offers a host of performance features inherited from Pioneer's pro CDJ and XDJ range.

Considering the comprehensive feature set that the XDJ-700 boasts you'd be forgiven for thinking that the unit would be larger, but thanks to the use of an external power supply Pioneer have designed the unit to be slimline. Inside the box you'll find a set of detachable feet which raise the 700 up to DJM mixer level, leaving the feet off offers pretty much perfect height for those of you who wish to use the XDJ-700 alongside your DDJ controllers.

Pioneer have managed to cram all of the expected CDJ controls into the XDJ-700, they've achieved this by reducing the size of the jog wheel (it's down to controller size but is still perfectly usable), removing the reverse button (this is now accessed via the touchscreen) and vinyl speed adjust. Aside from these changes all of the features found on the original XDJ-1000 are on board and the result is a sleek and comprehensive player that's perfect for those who don't need a CD drive.

Just gotta touch me

Pioneer's XDJ-700 features a 7 inch, full colour touchscreen - this takes care of navigation around your database of tracks simple thanks to the inclusion of the QWERTY keyboard search function that's also found on the CDJ-2000NXS2, XDJ-1000MK2 and the newly released XDJ-RX2. In addition to this the screen offers intuitive access to the players extensive features including control over hot cues, auto loops and slip mode. The screen is clear as well as responsive and for music analysed with Rekordbox you’ll be able to check on the vital statistics of your tracks with wave display, beat countdown, phase meter and key analysis indication all present.

If everything we've already mentioned wasn't enough to convince you that this compact player means business then we've saved the bext for last, the Pioneer XDJ-700 also includes Pro DJ link! For the first time ever at this price point Pioneer have included their proprietary link up system, allowing up to four devices to share multiple sources as well as supplying data to compatible products including the DJM-900NXS2, so if you'd like to add an additional player to your NXS2 setup without breaking the bank this could be a viable option.

The main features of the Pioneer XDJ-700 include:

• 1. 7 Inch, full colour touchscreen and fast, intuitive browsing

Thanks to some clever workflow optimisations the screen never becomes overcrowded with performance controls kept separate from browsing and playback functions thanks to three unique window views.
