Features:
Compact design fits in smaller DJ booths - The CDJ-1500X is ideal for bars, small clubs, and home setups. While it includes many key features of the flagship CDJ-3000X, it has a significantly smaller footprint, making it easy to fit the unit into tighter spaces and combine it with turntables and other gear to create a custom setup.
10.1-inch touchscreen - The CDJ-1500X includes the 10.1-inch capacitive touchscreen from the flagship CDJ-3000X. The browse screen displays up to 15 tracks at once, and waveform previews help you understand the music’s structure at a glance.
Enhanced track visualisation - The main waveform display includes visual indicators for vocal positions, BPM change points, and phrase structures. Playlist Edit enables you to rearrange tracks within playlists directly on the CDJ and there’s a choice of dark and light display modes.
Cloud connectivity - With built-in Wi-Fi, you can play your tracks with rekordbox CloudDirectPlay using a compatible rekordbox subscription plan, as well as songs from platforms such as Apple Music, Beatport Streaming, and Tidal using StreamingDirectPlay.
CoBeat service - The CDJ-1500X is the first AlphaTheta multi player that’s compatible with the CoBeat service, which enables people on the dancefloor to use their phone to scan a QR code and request songs from a catalogue you’ve prepared in advance. The requests are gathered on the screen of the multi player.
Customisable look - In the front panel, an illuminated bay with 2 USB ports makes it easy to connect USB drives. You can choose from 12 colours for the LED lighting and, thanks to the screw holes on the sides of the multi player, you can add optional panels to customise the look of your CDJs.
Dark or Light display mode - suit the lighting conditions and atmosphere at your gig.
