Pioneer has recently come out with a new model
- CDJ700 which does not differ much from the 500 models, except for the
fact that it is half the weight and $120 more. Not many physical features
were changed. Tempo maximum is increased to up to 16 percent. The equipment
is capable of changing pitch and bending it, which means that when you
speed up a song, you can adjust it so that there is no chipmunk effect.
There are effects such as echo, reverb, flange, etc. built in the mixer,
as well as two digital bpm counters. Using the equipment appears to be
easy, and yet it offers so much. When purchased in a set, it comes with
a nifty little case that contains everything you need to be as portable
as a dj needs to be. Without the suitcase, this pleasure costs around
$2000.
