CDJ-3000

October 29, 2020

A New Dimension

Enhance your creative power with our evolved flagship multi player, the CDJ-3000. This robust unit is powered by a new MPU and packed with specially developed high-quality components and innovative features.

The MPU (micro-processing unit) is the first we’ve ever put in a CDJ. It drives the unit, delivering stable performance and enabling advanced new features, and creates a smoother overall DJ experience.

Enhanced performance and rock-solid stability

Have faith in the decks. As well as expanded creative options, the CDJ-3000 brings even more stability and reliability to your setup.

Enhanced performance and rock-solid stability

Advanced MPU

We’ve revolutionized the way the CDJ is driven with its new MPU, making it smoother and more stable than its predecessors. The MPU’s processing power allows for new functions and lets us introduce more features in future updates.

Pro DJ Link with Gigabit ethernet

Thanks to the Gigabit Ethernet connection for Pro DJ Link, you can share and play audio files from USB devices and SD cards on up to 6 CDJ-3000 units when you combine them with a compatible 6-channel mixer such as the DJM-V10.

Better screen visibility

The maximum screen brightness has been improved by more than 150% compared to that on the CDJ-2000NXS2, so you can crank it up depending on the environment you’re playing in and improve visibility.

Tougher components

The high-quality aluminum top plate and redesigned play, cue, and Hot Cue buttons are stronger than ever. Also, the lockable V-Lock power cable* guards against accidental disconnections that could interrupt your show.

Enhanced audio design

Realistic spatial sound and a more musical bass sound

The CDJ-3000 unifies audio calculation processing to 96 kHz/32-bit floating in all playable audio formats . Hear the nuances of the original sound source – like depth, ambience, and shifts in the timbre of the low range – for realistic spatial sound and a musical bass sound.

A natural sound – easy to listen to for long, high-volume sets

To maximize performance from the DAC (digital-to-analog converter), we’ve improved the circuit that outputs analog audio. We’ve also tuned the digital audio for optimum sound quality, hugely reducing digital noise, to create a natural sound that will keep crowds listening.

Touch Preview

Audition any part of a track by touching its waveform in the right place in the browse section. With multiple CDJ-3000 players connected to the DJM-V10 or DJM-900NXS2 mixer via Pro DJ Link, you can even preview tracks from another player with Link Cue.

Touch Cue

Listen to another part of the track that’s playing by touching the waveform – the crowd won’t hear you. Learn the progression of a track and identify a mix point — useful during DJ handovers and back-to-back sets. Use Link Cue to listen to a track on another player.

Stacked Waveform

Keep an eye on the enlarged waveform of the track on the master player and the one you want to cue up, all on one screen. Identify mix points and visually check the beatgrids are perfectly lined up at a glance.

Support for 3Band Waveform

Understand a track’s sound without even listening to it. 3Band Waveform uses different colors to show the volume of each frequency band in files analyzed by rekordbox, so you can see a track’s composition at a glance. RGB and blue waveform options are also available.

Key Sync and Key Shift

Our smoothest-ever jog wheel

Effortlessly scratch and smoothly bend the pitch of tracks. We’ve redesigned the jog wheel so it feels slicker than ever, with a reduced touch latency. The LCD screen in the center shows playhead position and artwork for a quick visual reminder of loaded tracks.

Rebuilt range-leading performance interface

Get hands-on with the redesigned controls and new features of the CDJ-3000 – all arranged in a way that lets you play the CDJ like it’s a musical instrument.

Eight Hot Cue buttons

Intuitively trigger Hot Cues via the 8 buttons that run from left to right underneath the waveform display. The linear positioning makes it feel more natural to select cue points according to their position in the track.

Dedicated Beat Jump buttons

Jump forward or backward from the current playback position in the track by pressing the dedicated Beat Jump buttons. You can set the quantized number of beats to a value of 1/2, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, or 64 beats.

Advanced Auto Beat Loop section

As well as the popular 4-Beat Loop control from the CDJ-2000NXS2, the CDJ-3000 includes an 8-Beat Loop button for further creative options. Want to make polyrhythmic loops? Use the expanded options for odd-numbered loops to remix sounds on the fly.

Flexible performance options

Play rekordbox-analyzed music from USB drives via Export mode. Connect a laptop with USB-HID control to use Link Export or use Performance mode for free. Or connect your iPhone to the CDJ-3000 via a USB cable with a Lightning to USB3 Camera Adapter (sold separately) and mix from rekordbox for iOS.

Pro DJ Link with enhanced lighting support

Sync your sounds with lights thanks to compatibility with the new Pro DJ Link Lighting feature. The CDJ-3000 sends phrase analysis information to rekordbox (PC/Mac) so you can control lighting effects via the RB-DMX1 (available separately) and take your show to the next level.
