The Pioneer CDJ-2000NXS2 is the new and improved, next generation, professional multiplayer which will replace the current club standard CDJ 2000 Nexus model.

Pro DJs from every genre have provided imperative feedback over several years which has helped Pioneer DJ develop and deliver the future-proof NXS2. This latest addition to the Nexus family delivers exceptional levels of control, finely tuned features and the maximum achievable sound quality for a clearer pristine sound.

As music formats are evolving, Pioneer’s CDJ-2000NXS2 has stayed in touch by supporting the superior FLAC/Apple Lossless Audio (ALAC) file types – paving the way for more producers to create music in this top quality format. With the additional 96 kHz/24-bit sound card, enhanced digital out and 32-bit D/A converter, the sound design is better than ever before!

NXS2’s revamped 7-inch touch screen adds a host of cool features for a faster browsing experience and more intuitive performances. You can instantly access the most popular features, view comprehensive rekordbox information such as My Tags BPM or Key and view different wave display options in full-colour. The player now boasts two banks of four colour-coded Hot Cues, five more than the previous model and with the innovative Pro DJ Link technology, you can control four players from one device.

Every aspect of the CDJ Multiplayer has been expertly designed with the next generation in mind, naturally for Pioneer professional products, the highest possible sound quality and robust build come as standard.

October 2016 Firmware update to Nexus 2 ranges now include compatibility with Traktor Pro 2 software

The CDJ-2000NXS2 inherits all the most popular features from the previous nexus model – including Auto Load, Slip Mode, Beat Sync, and Hot Cue, along with some new additional extras to take things to a whole new level:

• MIDI controller interface: connect the renowned DDJ-SP1 add-on controller with a single USB cable to control up to 4 CDJ-2000NXS2s using the Pro DJ Link technology – giving you instant access to more loops, Hot Cues and other beneficial features.

Pro DJ Link unlocks a host of information and features

You can share one source across up to four different multiplayers and unlock a multitude of information and features such as Beat Countdown and Beat Sync. The new additions to the Pro DJ Link are below:

• A comprehensive Phase Meter: you can now see the track’s progression through the beats, bar and between the beats.
• Quantized Beat Jump: jump backwards or forwards 1 beat from the current playback position.
• Better beat grids for that perfect mix: The beat grids precisely match the Rekordbox beat grid to the microsecond, so you do not have to worry about your tracks drifting throughout the course of a mix.

Rekordbox track information and the NEW colour-coded Memory Cues

For several years top artists around the globe have analysed and prepared their tracks in Pioneer’s Rekordbox  software. This is so they can view crucial information on the player’s screen including Beat Countdown, Phase Meter and BPM. The new added extras to the CDJ-2000NXS2 are Memory Cues, which let you name individual cue points, e.g. ‘main drop’, followed by colour code and then see that information on the CDJ-2000NXS2s screen.
