Yes your on point with this bro.. CDJs are not designed to be software controllers.. People need to understand that CDJs are real stand alone media Players designed for professional venue use by professional DJs without need for computers or software. The extra processing is for the higher sound quality on big Festival like sound systems, which a regular tiny controller with large cue buttons is not designed for. And most paid DJs need amazing sounding equipment to meet obligations of high paying customers. Pri yon Joni has an excellent explanation of the intent, use, and design of the CDJ3000... Controllers rely on the computer to operate, although they do the job quite well, they will never have the sound quality of a professional stand-alone DJ system from a pricing standpoint.

The majority of people want familiarity shifting from some home controller to a club cdj setup and not get overwhelmed with features . I would atleast need some time to get used to denon's deck and software before i can start which is not the case with denon. If you belong to the bunch of guys who only wants features then denon's are the way to go . But if you want something more reliable and familiar pioneer is the only option . I definitely won't feel as confident with denon's at the club .

@@arkaprabhabanerjee1639 I switched from Pioneer to Denon a few months ago. Kinda like yourself I thought it would take some time to get the grips with the Denon so decided to make the change during Covid. I reckon after only a few hours I was playing on them like I was using them years. Came really quickly, so for anyone thinking of changing I wouldn't let that stand in your way. If you have been playing on Pioneers for a few years you will have no problems. By the end of day one you will know 90-95% of it's functions and will be mixing to the same level you would on pioneers. As for the software it wasn't great when I started using it but after a few updates it's much better and with the new beta versions we finally got elastic beat grids. My only real gripe with the SC5000 is the tension on the platters. That did take some getting used to. I have had to change the way I do my spin-backs because I can't get a light enough tension. Having said that I have got used to it now so it's not the issue it was in the beginning.

It doesn't even support SD cards over 32GB! It feels like they wanted to make this a sidegrade. And with clubs going extinct or at least very much lacking money at the moment, this only leaves streaming festivals and rich-ish pro DJs as the potential buyer base.

Awesome to see your review Carlo! Just a response about the cue point placement. There was extensive research done with 200 artists about the hot cue location. It was found that being away from where they rest their hand, and being closer to where they used to be located from the upper left was preferred. Being above the jog wheel prevents from accidental trigger, and it serves as an extension to the touch display. You have to think, these CDJs will be used side by side in groups of 4 to 6. Unlike a 2 deck controller, the wider you go, the more likely your hand covers over the the lower part of the jog wheel. The reason for Hot Cues instead of performance pads is for a related reason. Once again, they will be using sets of 4 to 6 decks. It is very easy to lose track of what pad mode you are in. On a 2 deck controller or 2 channel mixer, not so much. But 4-6, you run the risk of making a mistake. At a high profile event on stage at a festival with a big artist, it's not exactly something you want to happen. 1 set of hot cues for 1 function keeps you from making these mistakes. For the users who will be using these, hot cues is all they want and need. I don't see an Ultra headliner switching over to hit the slicer.

Club owner product. That's what CDJs are. In this times of Covid the sales on this are going to be abysmal. From a DJ perspective no reason to have this at home unless you want to have the exact same gear as the club... And in this case your club will most likely not have it so don't get too excited with the cue points and fast load. Once you're there, it will be gone.

Imo keye furures for my liking 1. Updated sound procesing. This is a very nice future for DJs who use wav/flac/aiff playing at huge venues with top of the line audio set up. The clubbing experience will get even better for the audience. High end D/A converters can cost more than one 3000 player alone, so its nice to see pioneer pay attention to the most important thing, making uncompressed sound better. Remember, the soundprocesing part alone can justife its price point compared to Denons flagship modle.. just saying 2. Changing keye: this is HUGE imo and it was about friggin time. That it took pioneer until 2020 to implement a future theyve already technicly mastered (key changing along with the tempo fader) is beyond me. This needs to be a feature on entry level products as well imo.

@@djcarlo I guess it's not hurting although you can see the album artwork in the main display. I think I would find the album artwork distracting since I'm oldschool and still use the display dial as a reference for counting bars, cue points etc, despite the hi-res waveforms.

Denon is cool and price is great but you get what you pay for. The products are buggy and that is why they aren't industry club standard. With pioneer, you also get what you pay for and it is extremely reliable. As far as hot cue button placement, I can agree that they are dangerous, but the reason they are at the top and not the bottom is because many djs like to rest there palm on the bottom when pushing and pulling the track using the side of the platter. I think having them on the side somewhere would have been optimal, but there isn't much room there. Maybe they get rid of some things they don't need anymore, like the loop in and out buttons to make room while making the hot cue buttons smaller so they can fit, but that is tricky. I think for a lot of djs, the placement is ok. Most djs that want to do crazy stuff with the hot cue buttons will have a different piece of hardware for that. but that's just my 2 cents.

OK I might not agree with you on that one. A company I work for brought 4 CDJs 2000 Nexus 2s. After one month they were showing problems. Link cable input was shit and would cut out if slightly moved. Cue button was the second thing to go. And the worst thing. New Years just gone. The fucking thing stopped playing in the middle of the gig. Disaster. 2 players had issues early on. That's bullshit. The quality control is trash with Pioneer
