The Pioneer DJ XDJ-RX3 is an all-in-one DJ system with two integrated USB-driven players and a 2-channel mixer. It works with rekordbox and Serato DJ software. The control-panel layout is borrowed from the CDJ-3000 and DJM-900NXS2 series. It can also be used as a standalone mixer with connections for CDJs and/or turntables.
A 10.1-inch touchscreen handles browsing, mixing and effects. It has a 1280:800 (WXGA) resolution, an increased frame rate and a new GUI. The browse section shows 12 tracks at a time. Playlist Bank holds four playlists for quick access. Touch Preview lets you play any part of a track by touching its waveform, without loading it to a deck. Phrase Display marks sections such as the intro, chorus and bridge on the waveform of rekordbox-analyzed tracks. 3Band Waveform shows high, mid and low frequencies in different colors, alongside the RGB and Blue options.
Each deck has a touch-sensitive jog wheel with a center display that shows playhead position and can show track artwork. A Feeling Adjust control sets the weight of each jog wheel. The mixer has gain trim, a 3-band EQ/isolator and a Sound Color FX control for each channel. The Beat FX Bank saves four favorite effects for one-touch use, and the X-Pad on the touchscreen applies effects when you swipe a finger from side to side. A Countdown Timer counts down to a set point in a performance, and Repeat Mode keeps a track or playlist playing on repeat.
