This is a bigger budget investment compared to some other controllers out there but this is a pro-level all in one system that will have you ready for any club or event. This piece is quickly replacing the SZ2 as a club standard, and has replaced some of the full CDJ setups as a club standard. The flexible media support of this unit allows you to use an external USB drive or laptop to load your music and does not require a laptop connection.

The XDJ-XZ is also the first all in one controller that supports Pro DJ Link, which is Pioneer’s innovative DJ tool that can also be found in the CDJ and XDJ controllers. Pro DJ Link allows you to load music from a laptop or smartphone, and share metadata between multiple units, as well as sync CDJs and other media players with your mix.

The XDJ-XZ also allows you to connect up to two laptops at a time for back-to-back performances and smooth handoffs when mixing with multiple DJs. This has helped establish it as a standard in the nightclub scene, and is a great value alternative to a full CDJ Setup.

The Pioneer XDJ-XZ comes with Rekordbox DJ software and retails for $2,399.

Pioneer’s new DJM-750 four-channel digital mixer takes FX manipulation and software synergy to new levels, thanks to the new Boost Colour FX and a built-in 24-bit/96 kHz USB sound card.

Available in classic black and sleek silver, the DJM-750 is loaded with features to inspire creativity. The new Boost Colour FX adds a second effect to the Sound Colour FX in play, and lets DJs control the parameters of both FX with just one knob. The mixer boasts 13 Beat FX — including the new VINYL BRAKE — with a dedicated Level/Depth knob for tactile control of the wet/dry mix.
