CDJ-2000 looks like it has been discontinued- time for the CDJ-2000 Nexus speculation
Posted on: 03.02.2012 by Romelia Stankard
So it looks like the CDJ-2000 is officially discontinued according to a few sources and the CDJ-2000 Nexus will be released in April.

Have any photos or details been leaked? I'm hoping for better screens and scrolling waveforms. What else could they add?

02.05.2012		ive read that new CDJs will have the same touch screen as new Gemini players have

02.05.2012		Im just gonna grab a pair of 850-k's to jold me over till the new ones come out... they seem to hold their value enough to not make a big difference if i lose a few bucks.

02.05.2012		They take their time which is a good thing.
Especially since my gear stays top-notch a little longer :P

Imo even the first days of June is way too late if we follow your reasoning. Imaging the amount of 2000 mk2 ordered..
It should be anounced/available soon.

And the sooner the better so i'll be able to get my 2000 mk1 for cheap
Do you believe a player used in a big venue can be bought for cheap ? Will it be in good condition ?

26.04.2012		Nice, about time we heard something... I won't be buying them since there are much better ways to spend $3400 but still I wouldn't mind.

Pioneer UK retweeted a DJ thanking Pioneer for demonstrating the New CDJ2000 and New FX unit to him this week.

12.04.2012		thank you,

yeah, a lot of people like the upfaders, I have had rotary for 25 years now, started with Bozak, Urei, then Rane 2016, DJM800 and now 900, I just like the smoothness of the rotary and could never get used to upfaders, it's all personal preference of course
Hyman Werness
12.04.2012		i like the LED mods, but i prefer normal faders to rotary.

12.04.2012		you haven't seen my LED mods on my cdj2000's and DJM900? I even got the rotary kit into the DJM900

the mixer is maxed out on purpose in the first pic, Im redlining it to purposely heat it up to make sure I had enough airflow under it

12.04.2012		i love them to death. But I only have had them for about 2 months and now nexuses maybe coming out!!!

oh well I'm pretty content with them still. Now what I need is a mixer to go with it. looking into a 900 or 2000

yeah, I have some small drives that search really quick but my main backup is a 250gb external, plenty of playlists and organized well with about 23,000 tracks on it so to do the party it works great, but when I try and search in an "ALL" view is when it struggles a little, regardless, The decks are f'n awesome!

10.04.2012		Well we saw the debut of the future hdj-1500 today, so other than a little difference in the release dates and the wrong discontinuation of the djm700 rather than the 800 the new nexus cdj's are all that's left... Could be anytime within the next month I'd say. Darn the anticipation!!!

Have you tried searching on the 2000's with an external drive consisting of 20,000 plus tracks on it? Do that and then get back to me on how well that worked out for ya, LOL, it pretty much freezes up the decks, E-errors pop up and you're shit out of luck
Well thats if you have 20000 tracks all in one folder. I mean if you organize in that manner you are asking for trouble anyways.
Alfredo Tooher
09.04.2012		yup, I agree.

I grabbed a 3900 from a local dealer to play with, Not impressed with their implementation of the iPad, the concept is cool but if you are a mobile dj and have a lot of tracks, the apps and the players are VERY slow unfortunately. The decks still work great as serato controllers, definitely not enough to make me dump my cdj2000's, i won't miss the 3900 when i bring it back this week being that again, its just another serato/traktor controller IMO
Ok Moroski
09.04.2012		Um... Why they didn't just have the iPad plug into the deck via USB and have a link cable between the two players, eliminating the need for all of the network BS is beyond me. I assume it's a limitation of the software or the iPad, but that's got to be the most cumbersome way to set things up I could believe of.

they may offer color choices in the future but i doubt it. This one pictured is one of the limited edition white 2000's you can see the gold plate if you look for it.
Alfredo Tooher
04.04.2012		And that's the million dollar question, how well will it even work, I guess we will know soon enough once people start picking up the 3900s
Nancey Inderlied
04.04.2012		I'm just not really sure why though, I mean, you have the track, artist, album, etc, name index alphabetically arraigned, is there really any reason you need more than that? It just doesn't make much sense to me.

I'm also not convinced that an iPad app accessing what is essentially a NAS hosted through a media player would be able to search and index any better than a natively connected player.
Alfredo Tooher
04.04.2012		it's definitely not just you, i would believe most club dj's look at it in your point of view, but in the mobile dj world, searching is an every event concept along with carrying a lot of tracks. If I only did club gigs I wouldn't worry about that either, you know your sets pretty much, you're not asked for too many requests or to drop a track next by the client, etc..... its a totally different ball game

and, I understand text strings are hard to work with but the Denon 3700 was able to search and drop tracks instantly when i used them on release years ago, no delay at all and no locking up, I sold them for other reasons because I like the Pioneer feel/reliability better so it's kinda irrelevant, but the point is, the search on a database that size is possible to do it quickly and not freeze a deck up
Nancey Inderlied
04.04.2012		Right, because text strings are hard to work with, and playing in a club with enough tracks to overload the browser is totally a realistic situation. I've never really understood the point of keyboard searching to begin with, but maybe that's just me.

Nancey Inderlied
04.04.2012		The CDJs already do all of the browsing and searching things you need, on screen, because they have more than 2 cramped lines of display, with the added benefit of not having to use an iPad, or a LAN switch, let alone a wireless router. Besides, I can't imagine pulling out a laptop and plugging it in an Ethernet cord is more of a pain than connecting to a wireless network on an app.
