Pioneer RMX-500: Make a DJ Set Your Own!

The face of the effects unit is cleverly organised with rhythm fx on the left panel, and scene fx on the right. You can find the pre-loaded drum samples on the rhythm section, which quantise with the music playing through the mixer. pioneer rmx 500 effects unit djtechdirect birmingham

Rhythm FX

For adding your own creative stamp on records in real-time, this section of the 500 is great. This area is where the samples live. The five audio fx also assist with live manipulation of the audio, creating rolling percussion and delayed vocals. The large pressure-sensitive control in the centre allows you to adjust the depth, amongst other parameters. pioneer rmx 500 effects unit djtechdirect birmingham

Scene FX

Similar to the colour FX found on DJM mixers, the Scene FX is for build-ups, breakdowns and customised fx on the fly. This area is split into two parts, 'Build Up' and 'Breakdown'. pioneer rmx 500 effects unit djtechdirect birmingham

Customisable

If you have a personal preference with regards to FX settings (backspin length etc) then you can easily save these straight into the memory. This a useful tool for saving the customised drum samples and sound fx that you create and don't want to lose!

Connections

The RMX-500 has a standard RCA input/output connection to run in parallel with the audio signal path. You can do this easily using the send/return functions on your mixer. You can also use the USB connection in the studio to work alongside RMX-500 VST/AU/RTAS digital plug-ins. If you do not have a send/return feature on your setup, never fear! You can still use this unit on the master output of an analogue signal by connecting it in-line (between the source and speakers/amp). pioneer rmx 500 effects unit djtechdirect birmingham
