@@professorquack if thats the case then great I guess, would make more sense although knowing pioneer it's probably not as sophisticated at that. Just waiting now for that all important tear down video that someone will be posting soon!? Then we'll be able to see
Definitely a great mixer! It may seem like a small update compared to all the other new introduced features, but the channel select buttons for the effects it's something huge for me. I never liked the knob all the other mixers have. And also the booth eq is a nice addition that can make a huge difference sometimes when the booth monitors aren't great. Personally, I just don't like how wide it is. I would have kept the mic section smaller, but maybe it's just me and I'm sure other people will find that section useful the way it is. Overall, definitely a good improvement in (almost) every way. Can't wait to try it out!!
Yes, the size is a showstopper for me, unfortunately. All new features/improvements together would be worth to spend money for the update, but my DJ desk doesn't have enough width unfortunately, and I don't like to change. I couldn't care less for the MIC section...
I'm new to djing but have been playing obsessively on a flx10 and the effects knob is probably the most unnatural thing to get a feel for lol. also i wish the blue light on the channel also blinked when it was on.. but whatever, i still love it.
Loving the updated effects block. The channel selector is lit and needed and the effects order makes so much more sense. Putting the trans next to roll 💯
Looks like an excellent mixer and a well needed upgrade, definitely happy about all the extras, a mixer designed for all DJ's, mobile club, bedroom, streaming, everyone, that antenna however, for club and mobile, it will be broken all the time until eventually removed, unless they give that antenna a redesign or we are able to remove it completely.
@@Crossfader that and the lack of Ethernet ports, it would cost them $1 per port, if that, even if they offered 2 ports per device (mixers and CDJ’s), we could daisy chain them.
it's incredible that they don't add the 4 knobs like the V10 for controlling mid and low bass and the equalizer for hi-mid-low in the master output. They always remove some important feature so you have to buy the more expensive unit. With those two things it would be the perfect all round mixer with no competition.
4 band EQ isn’t necessarily a good thing. For me, I own a V10 and I am considering getting rid of it for the A9 - it’s more suitable for my music to only have one bass knob.
I actually don’t like this. Let the dj ruin their own career - if they want to redline & sound bad, let em! 😂 I don’t want an * incompetent sound guy ruining my set, because they think my music is too bassy & they wanna hipass everything.
Really nice review, thanks for that, Jamie! I still have 3 open questions though - Still no Hi-Z Input sadly, correct? - Full DJ Pro Link support to work with the 2000NXS2 Players for Beatsync and whatnot? - Do you have measurements / size information on the device? Would be nice to know when selling my 900NXS2 if I should keep the case or not
It’s a bigger footprint than the 900nxs2 so I doubt it will fit in the same case. Yeah the pro dj link support works the same as before. No Hi-Z input.
I agree that the A9 is a nice successor to the 900 but I still think the V10 is the champion. The A9 just lacks way too many of the V10's features to win in that battle. An easy difference to point out would be the V10 can have three in-house effects on a channel- beat , color and filter (with controls); the A9 tied the filter to the color....... So it can do beat and color. Many times you need that slight filter over the effects to soften them a little, especially on large systems. V10 also has that crazy routing with the two sends, send to channel, etc. Lot more control on the V10, lot more possibility.
Master HP/LP filter and possibly master eq would have been nice... I'd upgrade from a nx2 for that but for home. Not sure I'd justify the cost though I'm sure it sounds nicer
Great video guys! Definitely stoked about this 🙌🏼 selfishly I hope they make a new XDJ-XZ and implement some of these new features. Because ya boi won’t be footing that price tag just yet 😅
there are rumours of a 4 deck standalone compatible XDJ-XZ releasing in 2024, called the XDJ-XZ MKII basically instead of using your pc to enable 4 deck compatibility you can now do it without any external software
@@djmelvio Too long to wait for it to just not happen though, I'm financing some CDJ 3000s with the DJM A9 Mixer off 'BOP-DJ'. Definitely worth a check, if you're after a proper club standard set up, but need an affordable way to get your hands on some.

We can’t hear above 20k (most people actually only up to 18k) but higher frequencys can still impact those lower frequency we hear for example through creating certain harmonics. So although you can’t hear it you still can notice it. Most PA systems are capped at 20k anyways tho to reduce dba so it’s arguably not very relevant in a club context
You don't know who is going to use the "Megaphone" Mic Effect? Well let me tell you the first person that came to my mind... Green Velvet. Exactly the effect you get by plugin your headphones to the mic input. :D
noice mixer,,, hate the trans effect ,,,,they should of kept the pitch effect; it is great pitching down on the break. Then pitch up on the build before the drop. Give it a try! :)
center lock seems like a problem that doesnt need to be solved. usually when you want to go back to zero it's instant so just kill the filter using the button. If you want a sweep back fast or slow, how hard is it to stop. I feel like this could kind of screw you up, in fact I sometimes go from 10 to 2 oclock from low pass to high pass. So I would almost always leave center lock off. Anyways. hopefully people find it really useful I just dont see it.
I mean, isn't that what the live mode mentioned in 11:32 is for? Yes, I know the DJ can't hard lock it out but at the same time any decent FOH engineer will leave it alone if the DJ isn't a constantly redlining asshat.
Hello, nice introduction, thanks for this. Can you please give a little hands on, how to configure the track separation on A9 and cdj3000 like the functionality of the flx10. ist this possible in general?
I find the A / B cue's for 2 DJ's a bit odd really, I mean, how is this not already possible?? on the nexus2, you can just use a mini-jack-to-jack adapter and hey presto the other DJ can use his or her own headphones.
I see that Pioneer still does not include in this model the ports to link the CDJ's (in the case of having more than two). That great success, if I'm not mistaken, was only incorporated by the legendary DJM2000 NSX
It's as easy as buying a hub tho, the super cheap. I don't understand much about electronics, but my bet is that they didn't do it for a reason, possibly because it would occupy space needed on the mixer (the electronics inside since it has so many new features) or because if the ports stop working it would be expensive to fix, whereas a hub is cheap and easily replaceable
@@ntonioproductions1591 also in festival situations, when an A9 gets swapped for a V10 etc… all the CDJs can remain connected to an external hub while the mixer is easily swapped… plus, it allows the I/O to be laid out nicely, inputs line up perfectly with the channels etc, which is also very helpful in practice when working with the mixer and connections
Do we need anything beyond a DENON Prime 4? For the price and feature I don’t see why 90% of DJs need to invest over $7000 for a full Pioneer set. Please help me make sense of this
Veo que Pioneer sigue sin incluir en este modelo los puertos para linkear los CDJ'S (en el caso de tener más de dos). Ese gran acierto, si no me equivoco, sólo lo incorporó la mítica DJM2000 NSX
With all of the link stuff in pioneer, I don’t understand why these mixers don’t have midi. It seems like the lines between production and dj are blurring even more with each generation of gear. The final straw will be when I can sync via midi a drum machine to the beat clock. Of course with a bpm readout it’s not hard to do manually, but it would be nice if it could stay synced when moving a pitch fader on a deck. Maybe midi 2.0 helps?
Quick question. If I were playing on 3 channels. Can you select say channel 1 and 3 of the beat effects at the same time? Or is only 1 channel or side of the cross fader assignable to the beat effects at a time? @crossfader
To upgrade or not, me, a big no thanks. personally think this isn't the best product of late in the DJM range. because it doesn't add too many actual features... all it's adding is things that force you to change your muscle memory - years of working with nxs 2's Extended mic channel strip: don't see the point, the extra fx on it just seem gimmicky to me and you could already do that on the nxs2 color fx lock: again, my muscle memory from using nxs2 for so long had me trained up to hit the color toggle buttons on and off at the right point, don't really see what this adds musically. beat fx channel buttons: again, not really a feature, just a change of muscle memory. oh, and they could have least borrowed some stuff over from the v10 like the 4 band EQ, but nope. They took off pitchshift and vinyl brake which is kind of annoying for people using things that aren't CDJ's. Don't like the square shape of the mixer either. Why would you want a mixer the shape of a square that doesn't pack that many features compared to the last model!! Sorry pioneer, it's a no for me. The only winning part of it for me is the improved sound overall, the 32bit float or whatever it's using.
Right, so the x1850 did everything the 900nxs2 did and more, is built really well and sounds easily as good. The 6000s vs the 3000, the only thing you can come with is the platter being mechanical.. let's not get into the fact the 6000 does everything else better for less money and has dual layer. Fanboys like you hold progress back. Pioneer been sleeping and now they release something half decent, big woop, they've been behind and the Denon team won't be making the same mistake as Pioneer-enough.
@@djnigellove Right? That's the best criticism of the SC line he could come up with? Denon DJ is fkn killing it, if that's the worst part of the latest players. Well said that it's the fan boys that hold back the industry.
The dual headphones look like the best feature to me, just got to find a comically large cartoon bag of cash and someone who DJs house which is virtually impossible
Built in recording facility would have made this a must have. If a Reloop portable can record to USB, why not an almost 3000 mixer.? Looks nice but my 900nx2 is still as good.
@crossfader - Jaime, you're a sexy beast with the long hair!! As for the mixer, unfortunately 90% of us will never be able afford this mixer. Heck I haven't graduated to the DJM 900NX which I hope more will become available on the second had market now that a lot of DJs and clubs will be looking to upgrade asap! Good Stuff from Crossfader as always.
Hi, I use Traktor software, I connect the cdjs using Cdj/Xdj aggregator… will I get audio output on this mixer without adjusting any settings (like on djm 450 and 700)
1. How does the wifi latency feel like, especially with the stagehand app? 2. Can the stagehand app function as a dj app to load song on each channel while one mix with the Mixer or it is just a config manager and monitoring?
The antenna is not the problem, this probably will ne replaced by a good 3rd party external antenna on good setups (or not used at all). But the fx center lock.. hmzzz
will this mixer finally quantize beat FX with Serato instead of relying on auto detect or tapping? Would be a shame if they didn't fix / add functionality because this is the biggest gripe with using Serato on club set up...also why didn't they implement USB ports in the back like on the S11...still have to use three cables to use Serato....
@@hi_im_fido exactly, 6 channels mixer only for club market. That's why it would be interesting if they create 2 or 4 channels mixer with feature similar to V10, aimed for home DJs
Maybe the most capable when it comes to features, in terms of quality of EQs and sound in general not even close to the best. (like Formula Sound for example)
Is it possible to connect the DJM-A9 with Rekordbox via USB and use both simultaneously? I have the latest version of Rekordbox but the DJM-A9 and Rekordbox aren't connecting at all via USB. Can anyone please clarify what the exact steps are?
Never thought of that, but I consider the 3-band booth EQ on my Xone96 absolutely essential when playing in various locations with different monitoring setups. And I've been missing it whenever having to play on Pioneer mixers. I should mention the booth EQ there is far less sensitive than the channel EQs, at +/- 8. So I doubt much damage could be done even by an idiot DJ in the booth.
unfortunate that theyre relying on a mechanism for centering the sound color fx instead of an adjustmentable deadzone or an infinite encoder with LEDs and click-to-center like on traktor controllers
Probably an easy fix. When I plug my 3000’s into digital 1 & 2 the live ring appears on the cdjs. But if I connect 3000’s into digital 2 & 3 the red live rings act weird and deck in digital 3 only lights up red when fader 2 is up. Any ideas.

Probably not possible, you would asign both chanel 1 and 3 to crossfader side A, and then select side A on the fx, just like on the 900
To upgrade or not, me, a big no thanks. personally think this isn't the best product of late in the DJM range.
because it doesn't add too many actual features... all it's adding is things that force you to change your muscle memory - years of working with nxs 2's
Extended mic channel strip: don't see the point, the extra fx on it just seem gimmicky to me and you could already do that on the nxs2
color fx lock: again, my muscle memory from using nxs2 for so long had me trained up to hit the color toggle buttons on and off at the right point, don't really see what this adds musically.

Heck I haven't graduated to the DJM 900NX which I hope more will become available on the second had market now that a lot of DJs and clubs will be looking to upgrade asap! Good Stuff from Crossfader as always.
Hi, I use Traktor software, I connect the cdjs using Cdj/Xdj aggregator… will I get audio output on this mixer without adjusting any settings (like on djm 450 and 700)
This is beast!
1. How does the wifi latency feel like, especially with the stagehand app?
2. Can the stagehand app function as a dj app to load song on each channel while one mix with the Mixer or it is just a config manager and monitoring?
It’s designed for monitoring. I wouldn’t recommend it for anything performance based.
@@Crossfader right on!👍
@@Crossfader Can I use this to adjust the master & gain levels?
I thought it would be possible for the dj to carry the ipad as they go to pee and still playing 🤣
The HID mode Serato Dj pro is free with the DJM900, why it isn't with the DJM A9
Doesn’t really make sense.
NICE MIXER NEED TO GET ONE
what a beast of a mixer, damn.
has anybody heard of a xdj xz2 tho?
Are there any welcome additions?
Does it make vinyl sound like crap? Does it have an option for a crossfader curve where it doesn't dip volume in the middle?
I was waiting for the Ethernet Hub/Switch as a part of the new mixer :((
Yeah it’s a shame that wasn’t part of the new feature set!
Does your iPad also charge while plugged into the input?
The megaphone filter on the mic is the most random thing... actually all of the 3 filters ... big lol.
The antenna is not the problem, this probably will ne replaced by a good 3rd party external antenna on good setups (or not used at all). But the fx center lock.. hmzzz
Why music cuts off for some second in DJM A9 mixer while playing with laptop ???
Too bad they didn't put a 4-band EQ on it. Great reviews, thanks.
What advantages does this one have over the V10?
Pioneer equipment is way over priced now, last product i bought was the DJM 800
Can't wait until the new rekordbox mobile app come out
will this mixer finally quantize beat FX with Serato instead of relying on auto detect or tapping? Would be a shame if they didn't fix / add functionality because this is the biggest gripe with using Serato on club set up...also why didn't they implement USB ports in the back like on the S11...still have to use three cables to use Serato....
This is a great question. I never had the beta version of serato so couldn’t test it but will try this out.
@@Crossfader Appreciate you!
I'm expecting the new mixer will be a downsized 4 channel V10... next year perhaps?
This won’t happen. Why would they? Nobody would be buying the 6 channel mixer anymore
@@hi_im_fido exactly, 6 channels mixer only for club market. That's why it would be interesting if they create 2 or 4 channels mixer with feature similar to V10, aimed for home DJs
Top Pioneer. Gruß DJ DEELEX /Germany's best Newcomer DJ 22
Looks like a mixture between the DDJ RZ and the 900 nxs 2
IT'S MOBIN' TIME!
Great! Now I can afford Pioneer DJM 707
Maybe the most capable when it comes to features, in terms of quality of EQs and sound in general not even close to the best. (like Formula Sound for example)
Can I plug the CDJ 3000 to the mixer USB slot?
Them color knobs won't last long. That little spring inside will fail after a few months, especially if you have sausage fingers.
Is it possible to connect the DJM-A9 with Rekordbox via USB and use both simultaneously? I have the latest version of Rekordbox but the DJM-A9 and Rekordbox aren't connecting at all via USB. Can anyone please clarify what the exact steps are?
Is there a latency issue with the Bluetooth ?
Yeah it’s the same as any other standard Bluetooth connection.
Great, a booth EQ so more DJs can blow up booth monitors.
Never thought of that, but I consider the 3-band booth EQ on my Xone96 absolutely essential when playing in various locations with different monitoring setups. And I've been missing it whenever having to play on Pioneer mixers. I should mention the booth EQ there is far less sensitive than the channel EQs, at +/- 8. So I doubt much damage could be done even by an idiot DJ in the booth.
Cool 😎 Nice up see Pioneer releasing club standard gear again...
💯

unfortunate that theyre relying on a mechanism for centering the sound color fx instead of an adjustmentable deadzone or an infinite encoder with LEDs and click-to-center like on traktor controllers
Probably an easy fix. When I plug my 3000’s into digital 1 & 2 the live ring appears on the cdjs. But if I connect 3000’s into digital 2 & 3 the red live rings act weird and deck in digital 3 only lights up red when fader 2 is up. Any ideas.
Is it available in Uae now? ...will love to place and order for it
As far as we're aware, it's available from today. Not sure if that's fully worldwide but should be.
