Pioneer RMX-500

The Pioneer RMX-500 – DJ Remix Station Effect Processor is designed for studio remixing and live performance applications such as DJing at a party or in the club. The controller features two rotary pressure control knobs that operate three effect sections: Rhythm FX, Scene FX, and Release FX. The unit includes a quantize function that enables real-time music analysis and synchronization of effects with the beat of the music, an Auto-BPM function for following the music’s tempo, and USB-MIDI connectivity so it may be used as a MIDI-mappable controller.

The Rhythm FX section provides five audio effects including: ROLL, TRANS, ADD, REV DELAY, and OFFSET which chop and manipulate parts of the music to create new rhythms. The knob allows these effects to be dynamically increased, decreased, and altered.

This section also includes five instrument buttons (KICK, SNARE, CLAP, HI HAT, CYMBAL) that can be played by the user to add elements to the mix. A 4-beat sequencer with overdub control allows the user to record one bar of each instrument button to create more complex patterns.
