Want You LISTENING For A Lifetime
Dear Customer:
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you've just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it's time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion-and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing "comfort level" adapts to higher volumes of sound. So what sounds "normal" can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
- Start your volume control at a low setting.
- Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
- Set the dial and leave it there.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you listening for a lifetime.
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association's Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.
Decibel
Level Example
30 Quiet library,soft whispers
40 Living room, refrigerator, bedroom away from traffic
50 Light traffic, normal conversation, quiet office
60 Air conditioner at 20 feet, sewing machine
70 Vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, noisy restaurant
80 Average city traffic, garbage disposals, alarm clock at two feet.
THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE
90 Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower
100 Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill
120 Rock band concert in front of speakers,
hunderclap
140 Gunshot blast, jet plane
180 Rocket launching pad

Features
This unit is a high-performance DJ mixer designed for professional DJs, which, in addition to its high sound quality design, is equipped with a multi-touch panel and various types of interface and effect functions enabling new styles of DJ performing.
TOUCH PANEL EFFECT
This unit uses a large 5.8-inch LCD multi-touch panel. When the [FREQUENCY MIX] and [SIDECHAIN REMIX] effect functions are combined, the effect can be checked both visually and aurally, enabling intuitive control.
FREQUENCY MIX
The track frequencies are divided into seven bands and displayed graphically. Fader control on the touch panel makes it easier to grasp the details and mix two channels or swap instruments (parts).
SIDECHAIN REMIX
The sound of a specific channel can be used as the trigger to apply effects to the sound of other channels. Operation of the touch panel's pad makes it possible to process sound dynamically.
INST FX
This unit is equipped with six types of effects (NOISE, ZIP, CRUSH, JET, HPF, LPF). Effects can be obtained simply by turning the [FILTER] controls for the different channels for improvisational performances, and the desired effects can be achieved by adjusting the [PARAMETER] control.
BEAT EFFECT
The DJM series' well-received BEAT EFFECT function has been carried over and further evolved. This unit is equipped with an [EFFECT FREQUENCY] function allowing the amount of the effect applied to be adjusted by frequency range, for even greater playing freedom than before.
PRO DJ LINK
When a PRO DJ LINK-compatible Pioneer DJ player (CDJ-2000, CDJ-900 etc.), a computer on which rekordbox is installed and this unit are connected by LAN cable, the PRO DJ LINK functions below can be used. For details, see About PRO DJ LINK on page 15.

STATUS INFORMATION
SOUND CARD
This unit is equipped with sound card/USB audio interface allowing up to four audio sources from one computer to be assigned to the different channels and mixed. Furthermore, the master channel output signals can be output to the computer, a great convenience for example for recording the mixed sound.
HIGH SOUND QUALITY
Measures have been taken to improve sound quality for both the digital and analog inputs and outputs. Sound processing with 96 kHz sampling, a 24-bit high sound quality A/D converter and a 32-bit high sound quality D/A converter achieves more powerful, higher grade sound.
This unit supports 48 kHz 16 bit, 48 kHz 24 bit and 44.1 kHz 16 bit USB audio signals.

Switching the input/output setting
Use this procedure to switch the computer's input/output setting when using the driver software.
- If applications using this unit as the default audio device (DJ applications, etc.) are running, quit those applications before switching the input/output setting.
- Some time is required after the input/output setting is switched for the computer to be updated. The input/output setting cannot be switched while the computer is being updated.
- Sound may not be output if there are differences between the input/output settings on this unit and on the computer. If this happens, turn this unit's power on and reset the input/output settings with the USB cable connected.
- If the input/output setting is switched while using DirectX, the application may not recognize the driver software.
- MIDI communications are interrupted if the input/output setting is switched during MIDI communications.
Switching procedure (Windows)
Click the Windows [Start] menu>[All Programs]>[Pioneer]>[DJM-2000]>[DJM-2000 Setting Utility].
Switch the computer's input/output setting.
ASIO 4 outputs 0 inputs 16 bits DirectX 1 output 0 inputs
ASIO 3 outputs 1 input 16 bits DirectX 1 output 1 input
ASIO 3 outputs 0 inputs 24 bits DirectX 1 output 0 inputs
Switching procedure (Macintosh)
Click [Apple] [System Preferences] [Other] [DJM-2000 Settings].
Switch the computer's input/output setting.
- 8-channel output No input 16 bits
- 6-channel output 2-channel input 16 bits
- 6-channel output No input 24 bits
Adjusting the buffer size (Windows)
Use this procedure to adjust the computer's buffer size when using ASIO driver software.
Click the Windows [Start] menu>[All Programs]>[Pioneer]>[DJM-2000]>[DJM-2000 Setting Utility].
A sufficiently large buffer size decreases the chance of sound dropout (sound interruption) but increases audio signal transmission delay (latency).
- If applications using this unit as the default audio device (DJ applications, etc.) are running, quit those applications before adjusting the buffer size.
Checking the version of the driver software
Procedure for checking (Windows)

Operating an external MIDI sequencer
This unit sends the tempo of the currently playing source (BPM information) as the MIDI timing clock. This can be used to synchronize an external MIDI sequencer with the tempo of the source.
- External MIDI sequencers not supporting MIDI timing clocks cannot be synchronized.
- External MIDI sequencers cannot be synchronized for sources for which the BPM cannot be measured stably.
- MIDI timing clocks are output even for BPM values input manually by tapping the [TAP] button with a finger. The MIDI timing clock output range is 40 BPM to 250 BPM.
1 Connect the [MIDI OUT] terminal to the external MIDI sequencer's MIDI IN terminal using a commercially available MIDI cable.
2 Set the external MIDI sequencer's sync mode to Slave.
3 Press [START/STOP].
The MIDI start message is sent.
4 Press [ON/OFF] in the [MIDI] section.
Transmission of the MIDI messages begin.

About the liquid crystal display
- Small black or shining points may appear on the liquid crystal display. This is a phenomenon inherent to liquid crystal displays; this is not a malfunction.
- When using in cold places, the liquid crystal display may be dark for a while after the DJM-2000's power is turned on. It will reach the normal brightness after a while.
- When the liquid crystal display is exposed to direct sunlight, the light will reflect off it, making it difficult to see. Block the direct sunlight.
