The main features of the DDJ-S1
1
Uses the layout of Pioneer’s professional DJ equipment to
ensure a high level of operability
The controller has excellent operability thanks to its layout similar to that of
Pioneer’s professional DJ equipment and to its jog dial with a diameter of 115
mm. Furthermore, since the master and channel level meters are arranged close
together, you can monitor the level of the master and each channel while
adjusting the volume. The controller also has an effect control area so you can
arrange tracks using the effects of the ITCH DJ software.
2
Includes a dock to connect with your laptop
The laptop dock allows you to store the keyboard of the laptop under the DDJ-S1.
Since the laptop screen is nearby, you can easily monitor the DJ software or
track information while DJing.
3
Includes a playing address system that allows you to
visually confirm the track progression status
The controller includes a playing address that shows track status on a LED
display so you know exactly where you are in the track while you're DJing. The
controller also includes the needle search function to quickly find a playback
point, so you can use the ITCH DJ software to intuitively mix two channels.
4
Connecting the controller only requires a USB cable,
so you can start DJing by simply plugging in
You can connect the controller to a computer with just a USB cable, so you can
truly "plug and play". Since all of the buttons and knobs have already been
assigned DJ software functions, you can easily start DJing without making any
complicated settings. Furthermore, the controller can be powered by the USB
port of a computer. *1
