Pioneer CDJ-800 Staff Review
The Pioneer CDJ-800 CD Turntable gives you many of the key features found on the CDJ-1000, but with a significantly lower price tag (around $200). The Pioneer CDJ-800 has the same turntable-like manipulation platter and programmable cue points. However, the key differences between the two are as follows.
- Cannot store cue information into a permanent memory
- No Hot Cue
- No lock CD function
- The 800 has +/-10% and +/-1000% pitch control whereas the 1000 has -/+6, 10, 16, 24%
- The 800 does not have the metal buttons found on the 1000
- The reverse function is controlled by a button rather than a switch
- No WAV data memory
- Touch/Release and Break/Start controls do not have separate controls
- Reverse function is controlled by a button rather than a switch
Overall, the CDJ-800 only lacks the most delux of features found on the CDJ-1000.
