Does it work with turntables and a laptop at the same time?

Yes. The built-in sound card and the included rekordbox dvs license let you run control vinyl on the phono inputs while rekordbox dj plays digital files from your computer over one USB cable.

Is the crossfader replaceable or adjustable?

The Magvel crossfader is a contact-free magnetic design built for long life, and it can be swapped out if it wears. The mixer does not offer a channel fader curve control.

Can I record my mixes with it?

Yes. The USB connection carries audio to your computer, so rekordbox dj can record your sets; there is no separate recording output on the mixer itself.

The mixer, a USB cable, a power cord and the rekordbox dj and rekordbox dvs license keys. Control vinyl for dvs is sold separately.

How does it compare with the DJM-450?

The DJM-450 adds a third channel option, beat effects and digital inputs, while the DJM-250MK2 keeps the same Magvel fader and filter in a simpler two-channel format.

Does it have a microphone input?

Yes, one 6.3 mm mic input with its own level control, alongside two phono/line RCA channels and an aux RCA input.

About the Pioneer DJM-250MK2

Inheriting some of the professional features of its larger siblings, such as the Magvel crossfader and Sound Color FX filter, the DJM-250MK2 2-channel DJ mixer offers straightforward controls, a clear layout and dedicated 3-band isolators let you scratch and mix instinctively. On top of all its pro features and technology, the DJM-250MK2 comes bundled with Pioneer’s proprietary rekordbox dj and rekordbox dvs, so you can start DJing right out of the gate. The dithering technology on this pro-grade mixer results in warm, high-quality audio from both analog and digital sources. Plus, its built-in sound card lets you connect the mixer to your PC/Mac and use rekordbox dj to perform with CDJs. Or hook up the DJM-250MK2 to turntables and use rekordbox dvs in combination with their control vinyl to scratch and mix with digital files stored on your computer. The clear layout of the DJM-250MK2’s lower half gives you freedom to perform complicated scratch techniques. The robust Magvel Faders ensure smooth control over long-term use. Two metal shafts support the fader knobs, while the contact-free magnetic system is designed to endure millions of movements. Each channel comes with its own dedicated Sound Color FX filter, a feature inherited from the DJM-900NXS2 mixer. Simply turn the knob on each channel to apply the filter, twist the parameter knob for texture, playing with resonance and tension. Connect the DJM-250MK2 to your PC/Mac using a single USB cable. The USB connection supports sound input and output, so you can record your mixes to your computer’s hard drive.
