🚨 £20 OFF IF YOU SIGN UP WITH 💁🏾‍♂️ fatllama.com/r/edwi-0e166 The Pioneer DJ XDJ-RX3 is a 2 channel, all-in-one, DJ system which streamlines workflow and expands creative possibilities. Pioneer DJ set themselves a real challenge when upgrading the XDJ-RX2. The recent upgrades to both the CDJ and DJM range have pushed the boundaries of DJing - choosing which features to include, and how to cram them into the RX3 form factor, has resulte...

d in a DJ system which challenges expectations at this price point. The first thing you’ll notice is the new 10.1-inch touchscreen, which dominates the centre of the unit. This screen features a much-improved framerate and a higher resolution. Pioneer DJ has used the improved resolution to display extra information without the user interface ever feeling busy – which is an issue for many users of the previous generations of RX. The new screen can comfortably provide 12 lines of track information when you’re browsing your Rekordbox library without losing waveform displays. In addition, the new Pad Status Display, Beat FX Bank and X-Pad have plenty of space within the screen – these features would have been impossible to implement on the old 7-inch screen. 3-band waveforms are now available, just as with the CDJ-3000, the blue represents low frequency data, orange the mid-range and white displays high frequency content. Next to the new screen you’ll notice that the navigation controls are lifted from the CDJ-3000. This will improve muscle memory for users of the industry standard media players who would prefer to have a compact system to practice with away from the booth. There are lots of features lifted from the flagship unit, including the Touch Preview function and playlist bank. Combine these additions with jogwheel adjustability and it’s clear that Pioneer DJ has designed the XDJ-RX3 to feel like a small booth setup. This theme continues over to the mixer section, which now features 6 Sound Colour FX and 14 Beat FX. The additional FX bring the XDJ-RX3 performance capabilities closer to the DJM-900NXS2. While we’re on the subject of the industry standard mixer, the XDJ-RX3 has been sonically tuned to sound closer to the NXS2 mixer. This tuning has resulted in a warmer, well-rounded sound which has an analogue feel and is a less harsh than previous RX models. Tweaking the mixer to suit your needs is now far easier thanks to the improved utility menu which allows you to control fader curves and switch the EQ from the standard level of cut to isolator mode. The headphone monitoring section now has an additional cue button to make use of the Touch Preview function and the AUX input, which made its debut in the RX2, has been retained. So far, we’ve had lots of improvements to workflow and operability, but what about new performance features? As with any product update, Pioneer DJ have added some new performance tools to the XDJ-RX3. First up, we have the Release FX which are assigned to the pads. This industry first, for an all-in-one DJ system, allows users to assign FX to the pads to be used in conjunction with the Beat FX and Sound Colour FX. The new Beat FX Bank also improves performance capabilities by removing the need to select FX with the rotary dial. Quickly jumping between FX is now a breeze and the sonic possibilities this offers, especially with the additional Beat FX which are now on board. That’s standalone operability covered, but what about use of the Pioneer DJ XDJ-RX3 as a DJ controller? As expected, the RX3 will function as a Rekordbox unlock device. Offering up 2 channel operation for users of the performance element of Pioneer DJs software platform. Just below the Rekordbox logo, you might have noticed the Serato badging – that’s because, from Q1 2022, the unit will also function as a 2-channel controller for Serato DJ users as well, at no extra cost! The main features of the Pioneer DJ XDJ-RX3 include: 10.1-inch touchscreen New improved jog wheels with 2.7-inch LCD screens Touch Preview cue facility Playlist Bank Pad Status Display Beat FX Bank X-Pad Countdown timer Release FX 6 Sound Colour FX 14 Beat FX
