AlphaTheta XDJ-AZ all-in-one DJ System

4-channel Professional All-in-one DJ System

The XDJ-AZ is a powerful new 4-deck all-in-one DJ system with the layout and features of a club-standard setup.

AlphaTheta XDJ-AZ is a four-channel standalone DJ system which offers a club-style layout, built-in WIFI, multi-device support, four channel mixing and a SonicLink transmitter.

As an upgrade to the Pioneer DJ XDJ-XZ, it offers significant improvements including a much larger multi-touch screen to streamline both library navigation and mixing.

Inheriting the jogwheels from the flagship Pioneer DJ CDJ-3000 media-player, the XDJ-AZ instantly feels like an upgrade to the unit it replaces. With an increase in both accuracy and smoothness, it’s easy to see why these tactile jogwheels are the standard across DJ booths and festival stages.

In addition, the new mixer section is clean and uncluttered, benefitting from the inspired shift of option selection to within the large 10.1-inch multi-touch display. We first saw this with the Opus-Quad and it has helped to create a DJM-style mixer section that’s easy to configure and great to use.

Everything is where you would expect it to be within the XDJ-AZ. This familiarity gives you confidence to focus on your mixing the moment you take it from the box. The four deck mixing is simple thanks to the large screen which provides all the visual feedback that DJs have come to expect, with the 1/3 and 2/4 deck switches to hand to make adjustments quick and easy.

SonicLink Enabled.

Free yourself from the headphone with the SonicLink powered wireless headphone connectivity built-in to the XDJ-AZ. Currently compatible with the HDJ-F10 headphones, this low-latency connectivity finally delivers freedom from the headphone cable without compromising on performance.

WIFI Built-In

With Rekordbox cloud play you can access your library from the cloud and play anywhere with an internet connection. In addition, Beatport Streaming is facilitated via the StreamingDirectPlay feature, offering a huge catalogue of tracks at the click of a button. Please note that both of these streaming services require either a Rekordbox or Beatport subscription.

Club sound.

AlphaTheta have chosen to use a 32-bit digital to analogue converter from ESS technology to handle this important conversion. As seen, and most importantly heard, across the professional products from the AlphaTheta and Pioneer DJ camp, these processors deliver a rich, warm and powerful sound quality that’s club ready. This makes the Alphatheta XDJ-AZ the perfect option for small venues, studios and DJs getting ready for their gig in the club – you’ll hear and feel every detail in your tracks!

Multi-Device Compatibility.

In addition to the USB and WIFI connectivity, the XDJ-AZ can be used with both MAC and PC as well as Android and iOS devices. Support for Serato DJ arrives in December 2024 but from launch the unit is a hardware unlock device for Rekordbox.

Other key features of the XDJ-AZ include the 16 large performance pads which offer dynamic playability. USB connectivity is fully featured with 3 USB inputs (2 top-loading for USB devices, and 1 laptop connection) which enables smooth back-to-back performances and DJ handovers. There’s also support for the Gate Cue mode, where Hot Cues play only while you press the pads.

Just like the hugely popular XDJ-XZ from Pioneer DJ, the AlphaTheta XDJ-AZ is a combination of the greatest hits from the industry leading manufacturer from the past few years but with the addition of the latest tech and the new MPU architecture which ensures continual upgradability for some time to come.

The main features of the AlphaTheta XDJ-AZ include:

• Online media support: cloud and streaming services available.
• Industry club standard layout, including functions of the CDJ-3000 and DJM-A9 (browse screen workflow, key sync/shift, BEAT FX, waveform preview etc.)
• 4 deck USB playback with external CDJs/turntables inputs.
• 10.1inch touch screen
• Dedicated deck select hardware buttons.
• Serato DJ compatible from December 2024
