I hear that Pioneer, now under the new brand of AlphaTheta are moving towards making everything subscription-based on future products. You'll have to now pay all sorts of extra fee's on top of buying the units to use certain features etc which will kill the brand and price out a huge chunk of the market. If that's all true, it's seems Pioneers days as kings of the DJ box may soon come to end... I hope I'm wrong or misinformed on that, but if not - what a pity... i guess as they say, all good things must come to end.

Pioneer are still more robust, but it’s not a million miles away. My advice is buy a pair of 1210s and use DVS, best of both worlds then. My 1210s with Serato are way better featured than a CDJ.

Denon started of good in the early 90s, but never could beat Pioneer in the club from the year 2000 on. Since SC5000, and even more with SC6000, Denon has a product that is as good as the CDJ3000. This is a huge leap closing the gap. To some extend the Denon out performs the the CDJ3000. I don't think Denon will be a the industry standard any time soon. In the end everybody has to make most out of the gear you got. Anyone comfortable using the pitch, the platter and the cue and play button could start playing in the club. All the rest is just there to overcome boredem or boosting energy to the music. But all of this is less important with good choice of music. You could bring something extra with the functions available, but sometimes less is more. If you can dj on an old CDJ, you could as well do the same on later CDJ models.

@@DJ.B_74 Well my Prime 2 has touch screen FX, an internal SSD (that is lightning fast for exports), the match feature on the library, more effects, better streaming capabilities, a sampler (admittedly basic) and various other functions that the XDJ-RX3 as a comparison doesn't do, and came in £700 cheaper. This is before we account for forthcoming updates that will add even more features, for free. Id call that a much more compelling option than its competitor.

This should be title "30 Years of Pioneer" - Technics and Sony had broadcast CD players with pitch control, cue, and jog wheels in the 1980s. They were being used by forward thinking DJs at the time in clubs as well. The Denon DN-2000F came out in 1992, and was a standard in every single club (along with subsequent Denon models). Pioneer CDJs weren't widely used until the CDJ-2000 in 2001.

These CDJs were mostly released by Pioneer under the Pioneer DJ brand, you can see when the innovation stops and they just become slight improvements from one CDJ to the next after the Pioneer DJ brand got sold around 2016. Really sad seeing such an innovative company slowly going into bankruptcy.

Where Technics (and Denon) missed the mark when it comes to their professional CD DJ players and UX, Pioneer did a real good job within an evolving and changing dance scene 👌🏻 The future of CDJ depends on for instance the future of mega EDM or mainstream Techno parties. In the 90s and early 00s the DJ started traveling a lot more, and moved from being a residence DJ at a local discotheque or smaller club to those big international venues and parties. With the vinyl and live performance revival in more but smaller scenes, and also the trends in interactive IX, I think the ever expanding ‘growth’ of CDJ devices has come to an end. The AlphaTheta move and developments also indicate this for me.

After using double CD Players for a few years i bought two used CDJ-500 II LTD wich was a blast to me. Then I bought two CDJ 800, later CDJ 400. Now I'm using a DDJ-1000 controller with rekordbox 6 because I think the current CDJ/DJM products are highly overpriced for what they do. 2600 € for an MP3 Player? com'on... But I still like the feel and workflow of Pioneer wich i never expierienced on other equipment.

I had cdj’s almost since their inception… I had a buddy that was sponsored by Pioneer and was an early adopter of the cdj-100’s, which I too was also able to grab a pair, along with the djm-300 mixer… I was doing things that other local dj’s couldn’t… I had a HUGE library of CD’s, so this worked in my favor - Every genre available at my fingertips… I had all the dnb/hip-hop tracks that people wanted to hear… and I would create insane mashups with acapella’s as well - It was indeed revolutionary, AND I WAS HATED MERCILESSLY FOR IT!… 😂 When cdj’s first came around, they were pretty controversial with the “elite’s” and “purist’s”… Good times!… 👍

This is not really about the evolution of CDJ's in general, just an advert for Pioneer. They were not the first to produce a cd player for DJ's, not by a long way, nor did they bring out the first dj controller. They may be the biggest name in that market now, but this makes out they invented the whole thing! An unbiased history of digital dj'ing would be more interesting.

This is just DJ Mag brown tonguing Pioneer for a half hour, or did Pioneer actually pay DJ Mag to do a half hour advert for the brand? Pioneer are on the down massively, especially since Alpha Theta took over and are ruining it. Yes Pioneer made it popular and bought it to the masses years ago but they lag behind now in all departments and that has been completely ignored in this video. They should re-name it to '30 years of the Pioneer CDJ'. Denon are making much better CDJ's and have been for quite a few years now. Their latest SC6000 Prime is insane and makes the Pioneer look like a toy but DJ Mag don't mention that. Won't be long before Denon are the industry standard in every club.......

Pioneer have to rename their next upcoming Media Player as XDJ or DDJ 4000. Cause Its just no longer a ''CD'' Player ! However i started and learning to Djing back in 2002 . from then on i owned two Iconic Technics SL 1210 MK 2 ,until late 2008 ! Then i sell them ( of todays View unfortunately ) . because i no longer was playing at the Club anymore . At the Beginning of this Year i bought two Technics SL 1210 MK 7 besides my DDJ 1000 Controller after more than 15 Years ago . Pick Up my two ''100'' Recordcases of my basement , and put the Vinyl on the Platter and put the Needle on after more then 15 Years ago ..A Pure nostalgic Feeling after 15 Years ago again ! Then i start to buy again Vinyls on Discogs ,which i just can't afford or dont know about to be released back in the Days .. Of Course they are no longer as cheap as their Original Release Date from Back in the Days , But for me its absolutely worth every single Vinyl 🥰💙 and i will buy still so much more good Vinyls in future from Discogs :) Modern Technique like all the CDJs from the first 2000 One Model mybee rules the Clubs and Festivals Today , but never can reach the Feeling of a Legend ! TECHNIC SL 1200 / 1210 MK 2 MK 5 MK 7 .. 🙏🙏🙏
