AlphaTheta XDJ-AZ: The New XDJ-AZ All-in-One DJ System

The AlphaTheta XDJ-AZ is a powerful new 4-deck all-in-one DJ system that mirrors the layout and features of a club-standard setup. Built for both stationary use in clubs, venues, and studios, and for DJs on tour, the XDJ-AZ offers an elevated professional performance environment for any DJ set. With significant advancements in functionality and ease of use over its predecessor, the XDJ-XZ, this system enables DJs to take their performances to the next level, wherever they play.

Enhanced Connectivity and Wi-Fi Integration for Unlimited Music Access

The XDJ-AZ’s layout is inspired by the CDJ-3000 multi-player and the DJM-A9 mixer, ensuring a familiar and intuitive user experience. For access to new tracks and the latest music libraries, this all-in-one DJ system is equipped with built-in Wi-Fi®, allowing DJs to stream songs from cloud-based libraries like Beatport and perform with up-to-date performance info, such as Hot Cues. Multi-device support enables music sourcing from a variety of media types, enhancing flexibility for DJs on stage.

Creative Freedom with 4-Deck Playback and Seamless Control

The XDJ-AZ supports 4-deck playback, offering the flexibility to add layers to mixes, create live mashups, or perform back-to-back with another DJ. The 10.1-inch capacitive touchscreen improves navigation and track selection, enabling users to display up to 13 tracks simultaneously, an upgrade over the previous 8-track display on the XDJ-XZ. With features like playlist banks, Touch-Preview, and Touch-Cue, track selection and previewing are faster and more streamlined, making it easier to create seamless performances.

Professional Club-Level Experience with Intuitive Control

The XDJ-AZ is designed to offer a club-level experience with full-sized jog wheels and an intuitive mixer layout inspired by Pioneer DJ’s flagship CDJ-3000 and DJM-A9. The jog wheels provide smooth pitch bending and scratching, while the mixer section is organized for maximum playability. Additionally, beat effects can be easily assigned with user-friendly controls, allowing DJs to express themselves freely through music. Familiarity with the XDJ-AZ translates seamlessly to club-standard equipment, making it ideal for professional settings.

Wireless Low-Latency Monitoring with SonicLink-Compatible Headphones

Thanks to the integrated SonicLink transmitter, DJs can monitor wirelessly with the HDJ-F10 professional DJ headphones, offering extremely low-latency audio with a simple one-button pairing process. SonicLink technology by AlphaTheta transmits audio 20 times faster than traditional Bluetooth® SBC codecs, eliminating any delay between actions, such as pressing a button or scratching. This feature ensures precise monitoring without the inconvenience of cables, allowing DJs freedom of movement on stage.

High-Quality Sound and Advanced Equalization Options

For those familiar with the XDJ-XZ, the XDJ-AZ provides substantial improvements in sound quality, including the integration of a 32-bit D/A converter from ESS Technology, delivering a clear and dynamic sound that fills large venues and clubs. With a 3-band master EQ, DJs can fine-tune the output to suit the venue’s acoustics. A dedicated mixer setting button enables quick access to mixer status and settings, further simplifying on-the-fly adjustments.

Comprehensive Connectivity and Flexible Media Options

The XDJ-AZ is equipped with versatile connectivity options, including 3 USB inputs (two top-loading USB ports for USB devices and one USB-C port for laptop connection) that facilitate back-to-back performances and smooth DJ handovers. Compatible with rekordbox and Serato DJ Pro, the XDJ-AZ requires no additional licenses to activate these software options. This model supports Link Export for rekordbox on Mac, Windows, iOS, and Android, allowing DJs to prepare and manage tracks effortlessly across different devices.
