Crest Performance introduced the new four-channel, six-input CJ/4 Desktop DJ mixer. The CJ/4 allows DJs to listen to their effects on both the cue and main signal in their headphones before sending them to the main outputs.
Want to hear what an external flanger or other effects will sound like on a cued source? Simply flip the selector switch to cue with effects. Once you've found the setting you want, mix the effect into the main with the effect blend control, adjustable from all-dry signal to all-effect output. The EQ blend control allows you to choose the amount of EQ present in the headphones, which will save you from blowing your headphones from too much bass.
The LED output display features an A/B compare switch that allows a visual comparison of the signals assigned to each side of the crossfader. The channel EQs on the CJ/4 have been designed to provide DJs with the most useful frequencies for pre-recorded music. The "Balls" rotary EQ control reduces mid frequencies and boosts bass and highs for an earth-quaking low end and clear highs. The CJ/4 also features a three-band EQ with a full 24 dB of cut on each channel.
The voltage-controlled crossfader on the CJ/4 has both A/B swap and taper adjust to allow gradual or more abrupt fades. Any channel on the CJ/4 can be assigned to either side of the crossfader or directly to the house outputs, allowing DJs to crossfade two tunes while possibly playing along on a synth, drum machine or beat record.
The CJ/4 is now available from Authorized Crest Performance Dealers.
