SCENE FX section makes creating perfect buildups and breakdowns effortless

Good remixes live and die by their buildups and breakdowns, so it's no wonder that Pioneer Pro DJ built their RMX-1000 with a major emphasis on perfectly executing these techniques. In fact, its SCENE FX section is broken down into five additive buildup effects and five subtractive breakdown effects - each with its own dedication selection button. A single large knob gives you easy access to the wet/dry mix, and a pair of smaller parameter knobs let you tweak your effects on the fly. This makes it easy to dial in your RMX-1000's effects, without stumbling through confusing submenus or digging into unnecessarily complex details.

ISOLATE FX section lets you add cool rhythmical elements to your remixes

Of course, transition effects such as buildups and breakdowns are only part of what makes an original remix cool. You'll also need to be able to add interesting rhythmic elements to your music as well. That's why Pioneer Pro DJ outfitted the RMX-1000 a highly flexible ISOLATE FX section. This processor combines the 3-band EQ you'd expect to find on any decent DJ mixer and adds cool effects such as a variable beat roll, a hard gate, or gritty overdrive. What's more, you can choose to run either the RMX-1000's input or its X-PAD FX section through the ISOLATE FX engine, giving you access to a world of fun rhythmic effects and on-the-fly sound manipulation.

X-PAD FX provides you with the perfect way to add original samples into the mix

Speaking of the RMX-1000's X-PAD FX section, here's one of ways Pioneer Pro DJ makes adding original touches to your remixes easy. The X-PAD FX processor is actually a remarkably sophisticated yet easy-to-use sample player. In addition to built in kick, snare, clap, and hi-hat sounds, you can load your own samples into the X-PAD FX engine via SD card media and trigger them whenever you like. With controls such as a multi-purpose touch strip and a dedicated pitch knob, grabbing hold of your samples and manipulating them on the fly with the RMX-1000 is a piece of cake.

Customize your effects via the included remixbox software

Even just on the surface, the Pioneer Pro DJ RMX-1000 remix station gives you a ton of flexibility and control over your sound. But under the surface, there's a world of additional tweaking you can do to get the kind of effects and sounds your remixes demand. That's where Pioneer Pro DJ's remixbox software comes into play. This free software lets you dive under the hood of your RMX-1000, allowing you to tweak your effects and create custom parameter settings. Once you dive into the creative possibilities remixbox opens up to you, there's no telling what kind of cool and crazy effects you'll come up with.

VST and AU plug-in software lets you easily integrate your effects into your DAW

Naturally, Pioneer Pro DJ built the RMX-1000 remix station to fit comfortably into your live rig, making it a killer on-the-fly effects engine, but advanced USB connectivity gives this powerhouse processor even greater flexibility when you take it into the studio. That's because Pioneer Pro DJ developed a special VST/AU plug-in, which lets you integrate it easily into your favorite DAW. In addition to providing a sample-accurate lock to the beat, this also lets you automate parameters, making it easier than ever to create complex and dynamic effects.
