The DDJ-800 2-channel DJ controller is a pro DJ setup that’s made to go wherever you do. This portable unit inherits the club-style layout and popular features of the DDJ-1000, including Color On Jog Displays, and packs it all into a lighter body. The result is a professional performance controller that you’ll have no trouble transporting between gigs at weddings, parties and anywhere else you play.

Stop worrying about MCs walking in front of the speaker thanks to the compatible Feedback Reducer feature in rekordbox. The system will automatically bring down the ‘howling’ sound from the mic – extra handy when you have 2 microphones plugged in at once. Use the DDJ-800 to mix audio from external sources, and apply Sound Color FX, Beat FX, EQs and Trim to make all of your shows unique.

COMPACT AND PORTABLE

Though it feels like our advanced DDJ-1000 DJ controller, the DDJ-800 is 1.3 kg lighter so you can comfortably transport it between events.

JOG DISPLAY

Keep your eyes on the deck and off your computer thanks to the customizable Color LCD On Jog Display located in the centre of each jog wheel. Reveal only the information you need, whether that’s BPM, waveform, playback position or Hot Cue and Loop points.

FEEDBACK REDUCER

Enjoy peace of mind when you hand the mic to guest speakers and MCs. The Feedback Reducer feature in rekordbox will instantly detect and reduce the ‘howling’ sound of microphone feedback so you’ll remain in complete control of the audio.

CLUB-STYLE LAYOUT

Performing on the DDJ-800 feels like you’re using a professional NXS2 set-up. The controller’s buttons, knobs and faders are arranged in the same way as those on our club-standard CDJ and DJM gear.

AUDIO MIXER FEATURE

Use the DDJ-800 to control the channel faders, trims, and EQs of external equipment such as turntables and media players. Additionally, you can also manipulate sound from external sources using the software’s FX when the controller is connected to a PC/Mac running rekordbox.

FEELING ADJUST

Use Feeling Adjust to customize the resistance of the jog wheels. Scratching will feel just the way you like it.

BEAT FX

Add flair to your mixes the second inspiration strikes thanks to the dedicated Beat FX display. Within easy reach, you can apply the popular FX of our DJM-series mixers quickly and accurately.

PERFORMANCE PADS

Hit the 16 back-lit rubber Performance Pads to trigger Hot Cues, Pad FX, Beat Jump, Sampler, Keyboard Mode, Beat Loop and Key Shift at a touch.

PLUG AND PLAY

KEY SHIFT

Automatically change the key of your next track to match the master deck and shift keys up or down to mix any combination of tracks in perfect harmony.

PAGE

Access 16 Hot Cues per deck with the Page feature. Switch between displaying cues 1-8 and 1-16 at a touch to trigger each of them in a single track.
