DJ application compatibility
As
well as playing tracks from USB drives, you can DJ by connecting to
your PC/Mac or mobile device. And, if you want to showcase your
individuality even further, you can play audio from external devices
like turntables and samplers. The unit has a USB Type-C port for PC/Mac
connection, so you can use rekordbox for Mac/Windows in Performance mode
or Serato DJ Pro*1 and there’s no need for a paid subscription plan for
either. And, if you use the Wi-Fi® connection for rekordbox Link
Export, you can conveniently access tracks from your PC/Mac or mobile
device without needing to plug in cables.*2
*1 Coming December 2024.
*2 You can use the Link Export of rekordbox for Mac/Windows or rekordbox
for iOS/Android. Link Export in rekordbox for Android doesn’t support
wired connections.
Large touchscreen for seamless control, from selecting tracks to performing
The 10.1-inch capacitive touchscreen on the XDJ-AZ doesn’t just give you
more visual information – it makes it easier to control everything too.
Up to 13 tracks can be displayed at once – a massive increase from the 8
on the XDJ-XZ
– so you can see more of your music and find songs quicker. Other
advanced features include Playlist Bank, to which you can register up to
4 playlists for rapid access, Touch Preview, which allows you to
preview tracks in playlists without loading them, and Touch Cue, which
you can use to preview the upcoming section of tracks currently playing
on the deck. All this makes track selection quick and smooth. And, with
the option to display the status of the selected Performance Pad and
Beat FX settings simultaneously, you can instantly grasp the information
you need in order to perform.
Standalone 4-deck playback: DJ your way
Whether you want to add more sounds to your mix, create live mashups, go
back-to-back with another DJ, or get more tracks lined up so you’re
ready to drop them at the perfect time, 4-deck playback support on the
XDJ-AZ gives you the flexibility to perform however you like. You can
seamlessly integrate CDJs into your setup too, so there’s no need to
switch decks. With PRO DJ LINK™ compatibility, beat and on-air
information are synced across the players, so you’ll feel in full
control.
Ultra-low-latency wireless monitoring with SonicLink-compatible DJ headphones
Thanks to the integrated SonicLink transmitter, you can enjoy ultra-low-latency wireless monitoring with the
HDJ-F10
professional DJ headphones. Press a single button to pair the XDJ-AZ
with the headphones and you can move around the DJ booth or stage
freely, knowing you’ll never tangle or pull on a cable. SonicLink is
AlphaTheta’s own proprietary ultra-low-latency wireless technology. It
transmits audio 20 times faster than the commonly used Bluetooth® SBC
codec, so you’ll never notice a delay between pressing a button or
scratching with the jog wheels and hearing the sound from the output.
*The XDJ-AZ doesn’t support a wireless connection with the WAVE-EIGHT portable wireless DJ speaker.
Professional club-ready quality
Clear and dynamic audio
If you’re familiar with the preceding
XDJ-XZ, you’ll notice various upgrades have been made in the design of
the XDJ-AZ. By incorporating a 32-bit D/A converter from ESS Technology,
the sound quality has been significantly enhanced to create clear and
dynamic audio that can rock large venues and clubs.
3-Band Master EQ
You can also use the 3-Band Master EQ to tweak the output sound according to the acoustic characteristics of the venue.
Mixer Settings
And the unit features a dedicated button
for the mixer settings, so you can quickly check and adjust the mixer’s
status on-screen.
