This new professional all-in-one DJ system puts you in control of the music, like the conductor of an orchestra. Creating harmony between beautiful design and musical playability, it includes new and evolved features such as standalone 4-deck playback. All this combines to provide a spectacular DJ experience that you can harness to inspire your audience in any space or location.
The OPUS-QUAD introduces a completely fresh approach to DJ equipment that harmonises design and playability. Raising the level of elegance in musical direction and the space the music fills, it helps create a special experience for your audience. The OPUS-QUAD offers standalone 4-deck playback for versatile DJ performances. This means you can play 4 tracks on 4 different decks simultaneously, cue up tracks in advance, or leave a deck free for dropping requests into your set at a moment’s notice – all with just one unit. You can also assign a different colour to each deck, which is matched by the jog ring illumination, so you’ll always know which deck you’re playing with.
How do you like to play? From USB thumb drives or huge SSD drives? By plugging in your PC/Mac that’s running DJ software? By connecting via Wi-Fi to wirelessly play tracks from your smartphone using rekordbox, or by using rekordbox CloudDirectPlay? You can draw from various music libraries with just 1 OPUS-QUAD and you can even pair a mobile device via BluetoothⓇ/MD wireless technology – perfect if you want to quickly drop a request into your set. Find your tracks faster and more accurately than ever before with the freshly designed user interface with an electrostatic touch module. No matter how big your music library is, you can use the 10.1-inch touch screen to quickly search for songs via the keyboard or use Playlist Bank for quick navigation between playlists. With Touch Preview, you can even preview tracks while browsing. The new Smart Rotary Selector offers a joystick-like experience with left/right, up/down, rotation, and push control. And the other browsing controls are neatly arranged around the selector so you can scour your music collection and preview and load tracks without moving your hand.
Take control of the music with a slick deck layout that includes a deck display and 8 Hot Cue buttons above each full-size jog wheel. With this arrangement, you don’t need to switch your gaze when manipulating tracks or checking things such as the track information, parameter, and status of each function. And with the new Smart Cue feature*, you can automatically overwrite the current cue position with the recalled Hot Cues. This makes it much quicker and more intuitive than ever before to use Hot Cues with one touch. Designed to meet the needs of the increasingly diverse DJ scene, the OPUS-QUAD produces high-quality sound that’s comfortable to listen to for long periods of time. The configuration of the unit eliminates transmission loss and AD-DA conversion loss and it’s loaded with a high-quality 32-bit D/A converter from ESS Technology. As a result, wherever you play on the OPUS-QUAD, the entire venue is gently enveloped by a comfortable sound that enhances the spatial experience.
The evolved effects on the OPUS-QUAD make it easy to add texture and tension to the music so you can hype up the crowd and personalise your sound with Beat FX. The XY-Pad makes it easy to control features such as FX Bank and channel select, as Beat FX parameters and the cut-off frequency of the filter are controlled by movement on the X and Y-axis respectively, so you can blend both effects with a single finger. With the popular Smooth Echo feature, you can easily trigger an echo sound by moving a fader or knob you’ve pre-assigned to apply the effect when it’s turned on. Thanks to the zone output – which can output sound that’s separate from the master – you can play different music in different rooms from just 1 OPUS-QUAD. For example, you could connect a phone to the unit via Bluetooth and set a playlist of background music to play quietly in a bar area or second room where people are socialising while you mix tracks from a USB device in the main room.
Plug-and-play compatibility for rekordbox Performance mode and Serato DJ Pro is included with the OPUS-QUAD. You can simply plug in your PC/Mac running either application to get started – there’s no need for a license or subscription. If you use rekordbox you can also connect to the rekordbox for iOS/Android mobile app. You can play with Serato DJ Pro when the OPUS-QUAD is connected via a USB cable to a PC/Mac running the software. On the screen of the OPUS-QUAD, you can now browse your music library in Serato DJ Pro. You can also scratch tracks and control Hot Cues, effects, and more using the evolved interface of the OPUS-QUAD.
IMPORTANT: OPUS QUAD uses a new advanced rekordbox file/library system. To prepare your existing playlists for the OPUS QUAD, simply plug the USB Drive to your computer, download and open the latest version of rekordbox (ensure "Export" mode is selected in rekordbox), then enable "Device Library Plus (OPUS-QUAD ONLY)" under Preferences > DJ Systems > Device. It's important to also keep the original "Device Library" ticked if you wish to use your playlists on other rekordbox hardware such as CDJs and XDJs (users may experience longer exporting times if both options are ticked). Lastly, to convert the current library, right click on the USB Drive on the left panel under "Devices" and select "Convert Device Library". Your device is now ready to use with your new Opus-Quad, as well as other rekordbox devices! Watch tutorial on Pioneer's YouTube channel.
