Meet the Pioneer DJM TR-909 (A mod project)
Meet the Pioneer DJM TR-909 (A mod project) Posted on: 22.12.2012 by Johnsie Kingrea What's up guys I'm happy to announce with some purchases from the classifieds, a little frustration, and a lot of reassembling I present you the Pioneer DJM TR-909. I originally got the idea after seeing this video (
). I contacted the guy asking how he did it and the ass hat wouldn't tell me and wanted to charge $450 for the job. So I thought "Get real" I could do that (Note: I could not). Upon taking apart the 909 I discovered space would be tight but persevered. At this point I had a Audio 6 that I had taken apart and with almost 0 soldering experience decide to give things a go. I got cocky and thought I'd solder the USB connection straight to the PCB board and unfortunately I got my points backwards and fried the board . At this point I found another Audio 4 on here and decided to seek local help, found a guy who modded Xbox systems and he did the soldering for $25 an hour, a rate I was more then willing to pay after turning my $200 A6 into a paperweight. After he got it all wired up I put it all back together and it works like a dream. Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures of it apart just with the cable coming out haha. | |

| Lina Rawie 23.12.2012 | Nice job man, but it isn't the first 909 to have Serato built into it. Here's another one: - |
| Valeri Holderness 23.12.2012 | good job man! |
| Renate Mayeur 23.12.2012 | I'll keep an eye on this thread. I saw that youtube-movie too and i wanted a version for traktor on my 909 |

| Xenia Gorin 23.12.2012 | Yo Thanks for the links! That seems way above my pay grade. Maybe I'll practice on a Maya44, I got a couple of those laying around, lol!! |
| Ninfa Mazariegos 21.12.2012 | Here's the one with the audio 8 in a nuo 4. http://www.native-instruments.com/fo...d.php?t=117547 |
| Ninfa Mazariegos 21.12.2012 | This is a better article about it. http://scotched.tumblr.com/post/9433...ide-your-mixer |
| Ninfa Mazariegos 21.12.2012 | I thought the project that I read about used a native instruments card, but here is an article about installing a sl1 box in a nuo 4. I'm sure the premise is the same. http://www.djcommunity s.com/community s/archi...p/t-10508.html |
| Beverlee Bedrin 21.12.2012 | Damn. I thought this was a Roland TR-909 mod. Nice work though! props! |

Obviously you can't stack 2 song since you'd be eqing both at the same time but this is perfect for sample launching or even layering lighter loops and percussion over existing songs. |
| Xenia Gorin 21.12.2012 | Wouldn't happen to have a link to that NUO4 mod would ya?? |
| Lang Abriel 21.12.2012 | I will see your DJM 909 mod and raise you integrated dicers...I don't believe im going to integrate an A6 just because I dont want to have 2 soundcards for when i play out. NIce mod tho. If you could take some pics of the mixer opened up I would greatly appreciate it. I can start planning my mod without the mixer on hand. |
| Ninfa Mazariegos 21.12.2012 | Nice mod! I once seen a nuo4 that someone had done similarly. Ive never messed around with the 909. Are the fx better than traktors? I just recently hooked my 707's fx loop to my audio 10 and it is a blast! |
| Johnsie Kingrea 22.12.2012 | If anyone is really interested I can take off the fader section and show where I fit the A4. |
