10.1-Inch Touchscreen with Comprehensive Track Information

The high-resolution 10.1-inch full-colour touchscreen provides a clear view of playlists, waveforms, cue points, loops and track information. Different views for music selection, playback and settings – SOURCE, BROWSE, WAVEFORM and SHORTCUT – provide quick access to key functions. In addition to BPM and key, vocal positions, tempo changes and the phrase structure of a track can also be displayed. The interface can be switched between a light and dark display mode to ensure good readability in different lighting conditions.

Streaming and Cloud Libraries Directly on the Player

Thanks to integrated Wi-Fi and a LAN port, the CDJ-1500X offers direct access to modern music libraries. With rekordbox StreamingDirectPlay, tracks from Apple Music, Beatport Streaming and TIDAL can be played directly on the player. rekordbox CloudDirectPlay also provides access to music libraries in Dropbox and Google Drive. Using these features requires the respective services and compatible rekordbox subscription plans. Login is convenient via QR code or NFC.

USB, OneLibrary and DJ Software

In addition to cloud and streaming sources, the CDJ-1500X supports classic playback from USB storage media, compatible mobile devices and computers. One USB-A port and two USB-C ports allow flexible connections for music sources and DJ software such as rekordbox, djay Pro and Serato DJ Pro. OneLibrary support makes it easy to use current rekordbox music libraries. Older USB libraries in the previous Device Library format must be converted to OneLibrary before use.

Performance Features and PRO DJ LINK

When it comes to performance control, the CDJ-1500X is also modelled on professional club players. Features such as hot cues, Beat Loop and Beat Jump can be used directly from the control surface. Via PRO DJ LINK, up to four compatible players can be integrated into a shared network. This allows individually configured multi-deck setups with different DJ mixers.

CoBeat and Individual Styling

A special feature is support for CoBeat. With this service, guests can send song requests and messages from their smartphones, which are displayed directly on the CDJ-1500X screen. This creates an additional way to interact with the audience during the performance. For visual customisation, twelve colours for the front panel LED are available. Optionally available side panels allow further personalisation of the player.

Sound Quality Modelled on the CDJ-3000X

Particular emphasis was placed on balanced and detailed playback during audio development. The carefully tuned digital and analogue circuits and the power supply design are modelled on the CDJ-3000X and deliver defined bass, natural mids and clear highs. Despite its compact dimensions, the CDJ-1500X offers professional sound quality and the flexibility required for modern DJ performances.
