![]() Some people don’t think there will be an XZ2 for the time being. ![]() XDJ-XZ – Why It Makes (No) Sense Buying RX3 Why are some people skeptical about XDJ-XZ2 coming out soon? Perhaps we will finally get an analysis function built into the device.Īlso read: Pioneer XDJ-RX3 vs. If the XZ2 comes, it has to be standalone with four decks.įinally, installing the large display and adjusting the SW seems reasonable. I recently talked about the best USB drives for DJs (and some SSD) that I know work flawlessly and at high speeds in Rekordbox, so you can check that article later if you want. I also assume that the XZ2 will have a large CDJ-3000 display and that we can directly record four decks with a USB stick or SD card. The fact that Denon offers a device with more features for at least 30% less is another story. There will be no real evolution here either, but at least the main problem of the XZ, the small display, will be resolved, and it is a very solid device, which is much cheaper than a CDJ/DJM set. So there are actually only little things left, such as Splitcue, etc. Integration of the DMX controller : I could well imagine that the RB-DMX1 will be integrated and would also make sense, but if you also have to buy this, it hardly makes it interesting compared to Soundswitch/Lightrider, etc. Also, the new Opus Quad just came out with this feature. Zone Out : I think that’s just not Pioneer’s target group, although I think that’s a shame, and technically it shouldn’t be too big a problem. The feature is not available on XDJ-RX3, so it’s the right time to introduce it. Track analysis : I honestly think this should not be a problem, as this was already announced as an update for the XZ and the CDJ-3000. I don’t believe it’ll have a built-in hard drive, streaming, or zone out – the average DJ doesn’t need it.Ī built-in hard drive would be my absolute wish, but then you would probably have to adjust the software completely, and I don’t really count on it. XDJ-XZ (Full Comparison) Expectations and possible deliveries It will then also be very popular with the superstar DJs as a home setup because the XDJ-XZ is already running great. So I wouldn’t think twice about what professional equipment I would buy for home. I would guess the price of XDJ-XZ2 will be a maximum of 2800 – 3000 euros – which would be great for a CDJ/DJM set with four decks (4x CDJ 3000 + DJM 900 NXS2 = 11,500 euros). The prices of two new models that recently came out are around $2000 for DDJ-REV7 and around $3000 for OPUS-QUAD. What else comes up, however, eludes my imagination. Therefore, the feature is overdue and can also be shown on the large display. Nobody spends three times the price of a DDJ-1000 on the XZ just to operate it with a PC. They also have to improve the features for the price, so I assume that at least the 4-deck functionality will come. The price of the Opus Quad already suggests that the XZ2 price won’t be cheap, but it also cannot be as expensive as a CDJ-3000. That would be very late in the cycle, but they wouldn’t have to do much, either. I think Pioneer won’t announce the XZ2 until the middle of 2024 at the earliest. If I have interpreted one of the Pioneer business development executives correctly, there won’t be an XZ2 until 2024.īut at least something seems being planned, as he grinned so mischievously and bit his tongue a bit.Īlso, Jeroen Groenendijk (sales, promotions & product specialist at Pioneer Benelux) said at the beginning of March on Mix Master G’s Youtube channel that we shouldn’t expect an XZ2 anytime soon it seems that Pioneer can’t even make enough XZs to fulfill demand, so no reason to update it.
