1. When a library is created using "rekordbox", an application included with the CDJ-2000, library browsing with the CDJ-2000 is possible. Library browsing is a function for selecting and searching for tracks by category (ALBUM, ARTIST, TRACK, PLAYLIST, HISTORY, and many others) specified in rekordbox.
2. In addition to the above, selecting and searching for tracks is also possible with libraries created using the MEP-7000 Library Editor (a piece of software for creating libraries specifically for the MEP-7000).

A function for resuming playback from the same point if playback is restarted immediately after ejecting the disc or stopping playback.

When switched to the wide mode, the tempo can be changed by ±100%.

A function allowing searching at higher speeds than normal forward and reverse searching with the search buttons.

For discs, 100 points per disc can be stored in the SD/USB memory device connected simultaneously. For music files stored on USB storage devices, the points are stored on the storage device itself (up to 10 points per file, with no limit to the number of files).

This happens if the beat position specified with the quantizing function and the timing at which the LOOP OUT button is pressed is off. When using the real-time loop function, turn quantizing off.
For auto beat loops, the quantizing function can be left on.

Sound is produced in units of 1 frame on the CDJ-1000MK3 but in units of 0.5 frames on the CDJ-2000, so the sound is different.

For tracks on a hard disk, points are recorded on the hard disk.

The files are not played in the order in which they were recorded on the USB storage device. Playback starts when a track is selected by the user when browsing. Once playback of that track has ended, the other files in that category are played in order through to the last track.

Yes they can.

Yes, both the relay play and fader start functions are possible.

Browsing is a function for searching for specific tracks within a large library.

Folder browsing is a function for selecting tracks among folder and file names. Library browsing is a function allowing you to display and select tracks by category created in rekordbox or by sorted order. For instructions on creating categories in rekordbox, see rekordbox's operating instructions.

For USB storage devices, in addition to folder browsing, if a library is created ahead of time with rekordbox, library browsing is also possible on the CDJ. With library browsing it is possible to select or search for tracks by displaying the category specified for the tracks in rekordbox (ALBUM, ARTIST, TRACK, PLAYLIST, HISTORY, etc.). With discs, only folder browsing is possible.

Yes, it creates an automatic 4 beat loop when you press the 4-Beat Loop button. You can use that button again to cut the loop in half, or hold the LOOP OUT button while pressing it to double its length.

Yes. DVD data discs, so you can burn countless amounts of MP3s, WAV or etc files onto it.

No. DVD data discs only

No, the screen is in a fixed position.

No. You'd have to show even less information on the display (larger items) for the touch to be accurate, especially after the DJ has had a few drinks. The rotary knob and the strip make it easy to locate tracks.

CD-audio breaks every second down into 75 frames. This can cause for imperfect loops when the peaks and valleys of the waveform don't line up or the loop is simply too long or too short for a perfect number of frames for that tempo. Pioneer has developed a method of interpolation to allow for half-frame timing. This effectively breaks every second into 148 pieces allowing for smoother and more precice loops to be created. The half frames are shown in the display as .5 and the half-frame feature is available for all audio sources, not just CD-audio.

The player automatically creates a history list of all the songs you play and allows you to import that playlist into rekordbox. You can then review the track list from that session or you can edit the playlist and re-order tracks to play them again in the future.

The rotary selector has an acceleration mode function. When turned slowly, one track is displayed at a time. When turned quickly, tracks are skipped while scrolling. The number of tracks skipped depends on the speed at which the rotating section is turned. When the rotary selector is pressed for several seconds, the jump mode is set, allowing several thousands of files to be browsed quickly.

Sorry, I wish it did too!

They are not supported on the CDJ itself, but they are supported in rekordbox.

There is a function for sorting tracks by category.
Tracks can also be sorted by searching for keywords.

Create playlists using rekordbox. The CDJ does have a function for creating taglists, which are like temporary playlists.

1. At the CDJ's UTILITY menu, set QUANTIZE to "ON".
2. At the rekordbox [Information] pane, set the "Enable Quantize on CDJ" item to "ON".

Writing onto the USB memory or SD card is required to use the library browsing function. Because of this, if the LOCK switch of the SD card or USB memory is set to "ON", operation automatically switches to folder browsing.
Use the SD card or USB memory with the LOCK switch set to "OFF".

For a description of the changes, see the Pioneer DJ web support page.
Check the update history on the firmware download page.

With [QUANTIZED BEAT LOOP], the loop changes to the number of beats set after first setting the number of beats, playing to the next beat, then returning to the loop in point. With the [AUTO BEAT LOOP] function, when the [AUTO BEAT LOOP] button is pressed, playback returns immediately to the loop in point and the loop changes to the set number of beats.
