Pioneer launches DJS-1000 stand-alone DJ sampler

Pioneer DJ has announced a new stand-alone sampler, the DJS-1000.
Many professional DJs use electronic instruments and production gear in their live sets to help make their performances creative and unique, Pioneer says, and with an easy-to-use interface, 16 multicoloured step input keys, 16 multicoloured Performance Pads, a host of inputs and outputs, plus various other performance features, the DJS-1000 is aimed directly at that market.
The DJS-1000 lets users sync and mix with tracks playing on other equipment such as CDJs using the Beat Sync,1 tempo slider and nudge features. At a glance, the 7-inch full-colour touch screen gives all the information needed to perform, thanks to easily recognisable sequence patterns and instrument icons assigned to the Performance Pads.
Other features installed on the DJS-1000 include Live Sampling.
