Pioneer DJ DDJ-REV5 Description
The
Pioneer DJ DDJ-REV5 redefines the modern DJ controller by merging scratch-style functionality with innovative performance features. Designed with open-format DJs in mind, its layout mimics a professional battle setup by placing the long-throw tempo sliders above the jog wheels and centralizing the performance pads and FX levers. This layout mirrors the PLX Series turntables and DJM-S Series mixers for a familiar and intuitive feel.
Stems functionality is a major advancement, allowing DJs to isolate and manipulate vocals, drums, bass, and melody in real time. Whether you're muting individual elements or separating stems across decks, live remixing has never been more accessible. The controller also includes Auto BPM Transition to automate tempo shifts between tracks of different speeds, maintaining dancefloor momentum with minimal effort.
Another unique feature is the new Piano Play mode, which transforms the 16 performance pads into a keyboard layout, making it easy to perform musically even without music theory knowledge. With three scales to choose from, DJs can play melodies and remix on the fly.
Packed with I/O flexibility including dual USB Type-C ports and balanced XLR master output, the DDJ-REV5 adapts easily to both club and home setups. It comes ready for use with Serato DJ Pro and rekordbox – no subscription or activation codes required.
