Pioneer DJ OPUS-QUAD All-in-One DJ Controller

General

Designed to transform the average pro-DJ into the conductor of their own hardware-based orchestra, the Pioneer DJ OPUS-QUAD is every bit as grand as its title. First off, this mega-inspiring masterpiece of an all-in-one DJ controller boasts a tight and fresh new design that detours from the tried and tested hunks of tech that came before it, opting instead for a lightly angled prow and sloping top panel to help elevate the comfort and playability. Add that to the matte-black finish and wood-coloured accents, and this model effortlessly clinches those all-important style points.

Any Approach & Any Event

The OPUS-QUAD is the very first all-in-one Pioneer DJ system to boast four independently playable decks. And not only that. Those four decks can be sent to separate zones, independently of the master audio, so different rooms can be fed different music - at the same time. This, combined with the mass of supported media formats, might also make this model the most flexible offering to leave the Pioneer DJ lab. Find the next track faster than ever, no matter the dizzying size of your library via a spacious touchscreen and newly-designed joystick-style browser button, and check all track information at a glance thanks to the smart deck arrangement.

An Advanced Effects Section

The OPUS-QUAD has also been kitted out with an advanced effects section for injecting more tension and texture into the mix. Harness the XY-PAD functions to warp effects in real-time with nothing more than a gesture while every parameter, including the cut-off frequencies, are quickly set with smooth ease. When it comes to effects, this controller grants access to the much-sought-after Smooth Echo, which can be triggered via an assignable fader or button as preferred. Expand the creative scope further via the Sound Color FX and Beat FX and add some true, custom flair to the set. Even the Smart Cue function has been given an upgrade, so the current cue-position can be automatically replaced with new Hot Cues, activated via the eight Hot Cue buttons mounted above each jog-wheel.

Incredible Sound-Quality + Software Support

When it comes to sound-quality, it might be obvious that there's nothing to worry about here. The risk of signal quality loss is immediately eliminated by the high-quality, 32-bit AD/DA converter provided by ESS Technology, resulting in detailed, big and spacious sound that will accommodate any and every genre going. In terms of compatibility, the Pioneer DJ OPUS-QUAD is virtually plug-and-play and fully supports Rekordbox Performance mode. Come the summer of 2023, it will also officially support Serato DJ Pro without the need to get a license or subscription.
