Features
Features
The CDJ-1000MK3 compact disc player is designed for use by
DJs providing all the functions and performance required in disco
clubs while offering performance, sound quality and functional-
ity superior to any analog player.
¶ TEMPO CONTROL RANGE
The maximum variable range can be set to four variable ranges:
6 %, 10 %, 16 % and WIDE to facilitate adjustment.
¶ TEMPO CONTROL RESET
Resets the tempo to 0 % regardless of slider position.
¶ MASTER TEMPO
Changes music tempo without changing pitch.
JOG DIAL
The large 206 mm diameter jog dial enables better handling
than an analog turntable.
¶ PITCH BEND
CUE
This function changes the music tempo depending on direction
of jog dial rotation and speed of movement.
¶ SCRATCH PLAY
In the VINYL mode when the surface of the jog dial is pressed
playback is discontinued and then continues according to the
direction and speed the dial is rotated. You can also adjust the
startup when the jog dial is touched and released to create new
DJ techniques.
¶ BACK CUE
After storing the cue point in memory, press the CUE button
while playing the unit to go back to the cue point and start over.
¶ AUTO CUE
Auto cue automatically locates the song’s start point even if it
differs from the track’s frame, allowing the player to start in-
stantly at a press of the PLAY button.
¶ CUE POINT SAMPLER
¶ FRAME SEARCH
The sound from the memorized cue point can be reproduced by
one touch, which can be used as the start point check and the
sampler.
Moves the disc from pause position in frame increments (1/75
sec) when the jog dial is rotated in pause mode.
¶ SUPER FAST SEARCH
Rotate the jog dial while holding depressed the SEARCH button,
TRACK SEARCH button, or FOLDER SEARCH button. When this
is done, search will be performed faster than the normal search,
track search, or folder search operations.
¶ JOG ADJUST (Jog Sensitivity Adjustment)
This function allows you to adjust the felt resistance when rotat-
ing the jog dial.
REAL TIME SEAMLESS LOOP
This function simplifies setting and releasing loops. This func-
tion lets you set a loop while you are playing a track. A loop can
also be set at the end of the track so that the track does not
stop. In addition, an ADJUST mode has been added to enable
one-touch adjustments to Loop-in and Loop-out points and facili-
tate loop operation.
ON JOG DISPLAY
The center of the jog dial displays information regarding disc sta-
tus, cue point position, sound memory status, jog dial touch-
detection, and VINYL mode.
RELOOP
Allows you to replay a loop any number of times.
Press the RELOOP button after releasing loop play to return to
the loop start point. Clever use of on and off in combination with
the rhythm make it possible to create new sound effects.
WAVE DISPLAY
This display makes it possible to find the breakpoint between
tracks in advance and use it as mix point or end point in the
same way as you can on an analog record by checking the posi-
tion of the needle in the groove.
PLAYING ADDRESS
This bar graph provides a visual representation of track playback
progress that enables you to see current playback position just
like you can on an analog record by checking needle position.
The length of the bar shows current position and a flashing bar
provides advance notice of track end.
CUE/LOOP MEMORY
This unit is equipped with a function allowing cue points and
loop points for individual discs to be recorded on SD memory
cards or MultiMedia Cards (MMC); the recorded data can then
be called up when playing the respective disc.
SLOT IN
Discs are loaded directly without opening doors or trays, making
track selection that much faster.
HOT CUE
FADER START
When a Pioneer DJ mixer (sold separately) is connected, the
mixer’s fader operation can be used to perform quick start and
back cue.
UP to three hot cue points (A, B, C) can be preset, thus allowing
playback to be performed instantly from either of those points.
The hot cue function can be used to record not only cue points,
but loop points as well.
MULTI READ
REVERSE PLAY
Allows playback of CD-R, CD-RW discs (recorded in music CD or
MP3 format). (Note that some discs may not play properly due
to characteristics of the individual disc, recorder, or disc soiling
and scratches.)
Set the DIRECTION switch to its forward position ([REV] posi-
tion) to play the music backwards.
TEMPO CONTROL
100 mm high-precision slider coupled with a 0.02 % incre-
ment digital display (within a 6 % range) allows exact control of
speed to make tempo adjustments easy and accurate.
MP3 DJ PLAY
MP3 files recorded on CD-ROM can be played with DJ func-
tions.

Handling Precautions
Handling Precautions
Installation location
Moving the unit
¶ Placing and using the player for long periods on heat-generat-
ing sources such as amplifiers or near spotlights, etc. will af-
fect product performance. Avoid placing the player on heat-
generating sources.
I Never move the unit during playback!
During playback, a disc rotates at very high speed; moving the
player during playback may result in scratches or other damage
to the disc.
¶ Install this player as far as possible away from tuners and TV
sets. The player installed in close proximity to such equip-
ment may cause noise or degradation of the picture.
Noise may be noticeable when an indoor antenna is used. In
such cases, make use of an outdoor antenna or turn off power
to the player.
I When moving the unit is necessary
Before moving the unit, remove any disc and disconnect the
power. Malfunctions or damage may result if the unit is moved
with a disc loaded.
¶ When the unit is used in a loud-sound environment, e.g., near
a speaker, sound skip may occur. Install the unit away from
the speaker or reduce the listening volume.
¶ Place this unit on a level surface and a stable platform.
Take adequate note of the following precautions when pre-
paring a place for installation:
About the carrying case
The upper surface of the jog dial is equipped with a touch-sensi-
tive switch. When placing the player in its carrying case, avoid
placing any pressure on the jog dial.
Condensation
Be sure the player, including its video, audio and power supply
cords, does not touch vibrating materials. Any vibration other
than that transmitted through the insulators may cause the disc
to skip. Take special care when using the player while it is in-
stalled in a carrying case.
When this unit is brought into a warm room from previously cold
surroundings or when the room temperature rises sharply, con-
densation may form inside the unit and impair its performance.
In such cases, allow the unit to stand for about an hour or raise
the room temperature gradually.
Cleaning the player
Do not place on or
against vibrating
materials!
To clean the player wipe with a polishing or a soft, dry cloth. For
stubborn dirt, moisten a soft cloth with a weak solution of neu-
tral detergent (diluted in five to six parts water), wring the cloth
well, and wipe away the dirt. Use a dry cloth to wipe the surface
dry. Do not use volatile liquids such as benzene or thinner which
will damage the unit.
Leave space to allow for heat
dissipation.
About the lens cleaner
The player’s pickup lens should not become dirty in normal use.
If for some reason, the lens becomes soiled and malfunctions,
contact your nearest PIONEER authorized service center. Lens
cleaners for CD players are commercially available, but special
care should be exercised in their use as some may cause dam-
age to the lens.
Leave space to
allow for heat
dissipation.

allow for heat
dissipation.
Regarding data recorded on memory cards
It is the users responsibility to make regular backups of important
memory card data. Pioneer disclaims any responsibility for damage
to or loss of memory card data, or other incidental damages arising
from incompatibilities of the player and memory card, static electric-
ity or other external causes.

Notes:
Types of discs playable on this unit
¶ The following marks and logos are displayed on disc labels,
¶ Some CD-R/CD-RW discs recorded on standalone recorders
or computer drives may not be playable back on this player,
due to a variety of reasons, including disc characteristics,
scratches, dirt, player lens dirt or condensation, etc.
¶ Some discs recorded on computer drives may not be playable
on this player, depending on the recording application used,
its settings, and operating environment. Be sure to use the
correct formatting for the discs used. For details, consult the

¶ This unit cannot play partially recorded CD-R or CD-RW discs
that have not been finalized.
Note 1) Regarding TEXT display:
¶ For detailed information regarding the handling of CD-R/CD-
RW discs, consult the handling precautions supplied with each
disc.
The number of characters that can be displayed is up to 48. When
a display exceeds 16 characters in length, the display will scroll.
Only alpha-numerics and a limited number of symbols can be
displayed (ꢀ P. 17).
I Regarding CD-R/RW discs
Note 2) CD-R/CD-RW discs:
Due to the unique construction of CD-R/RW discs, leaving them
for extended periods of time in the pause (or cue standby) mode
at a single point may result in the discs’ becoming difficult to
play at that place. The same symptom may also occur if the loop
function is used to play back a single point on the disc exces-
sively.
This player supports playback of CD-R/CD-RW discs recorded in
audio CD format or MP3.
* For details, consult the Operating Instructions for your recorder.
When playing 8 cm CDs, always use an 8 cm CD adapter
(ꢀ P. 13).
As a result, users are advised to construct backup archive discs
when playing discs containing important data.

Attempting the forced eject function im-
mediately after turning off the power may
cause the following dangers:
This unit spins at high speed to provide high performance.
When playing 8 cm discs with an adaptor, for safety rea-
sons the rotation speed is reduced as a result scratch and
reverse speeds will be lower.
¶ The disc may be ejected while still rotating, resulting
in personal injury.
¶ The disc may be damaged due to the disc clamp’s

eject hole, the disc will be ejected from the loading slot
by about 5 mm to 10 mm. It can then be grasped with the
fingers and removed.
¶ When loading a disc, do not apply bending force on the disc, or
attempt to force the disc into the mechanism. Also, when the load-
ing mechanism begins to pull the disc into the player or to eject a
disc, do not attempt to forcibly override the mechanism’s move-
ment, since the disc or loading mechanism may be damaged.

If the BPM rates match, mixing of tracks A and B will sound good even if
the CROSS FADER slider is in the middle position.
7 Fader start play
Using the cross fader start function of a Pioneer DJ mixer, step 10 above
can be eliminated for even simpler mixing. In addition, when the CROSS
FADER slider is returned to its original position, the status returns to that
in step 9 (player CD2 at its cue point), so that you can repeat the same
play as many times as you like.

About fader start play
When the accessory control cord is used to connect this unit’s CON-
TROL jack to the corresponding CONTROL jack on a Pioneer DJ mixer,
moving the mixer’s channel fader causes the CUE standby on the CD
player to be released, thus instantly starting playback. The mixer’s cross
fader can also be used to control fader start on the player. Also, when
the fader lever is returned to its original position, the player can be made
to return to its cue point (back cue). For details regarding connection,
ꢀ P. 8.
¶ Reloop cannot be performed when the RELOOP/EXIT button is not
lighted.
To perform hot cue
Up to three hot-cue points (A, B, C, including loop data) can be set in
advance. In this way, playback can be started from either of those points
instantly.
Relay play using two players
When the accessory control cord is used to connect the CONTROL jacks
of this player and another Pioneer CDJ series CD player, the two players
can be made to perform automatic relay play (ꢀ P. 9).
¶ Set the two players’ auto cue function to ON (the [A.CUE] indicator
lights in the display).
¶ Set your audio mixer’s fader control to its center position.
1. Begin playback on the first player.
7 Setting hot-cue points
1. Press he HOT CUE REC MODE button so that HOT CUE A,
B, C buttons are lighted red.
2. When the currently playing track finishes, the second
player automatically begins playback.
3. The first player then pauses at the beginning of the its
next track in the CUE standby mode.
2. During playback or pause, press the desired button (A, B,
C) at the point you wish to set as a hot cue in that button.
¶ The pressed button will flash red for 2 seconds, and the position
and playback header data at that point will be recorded. When the
button is pressed during loop playback, the data for the currently
playing loop will be recorded. The playback direction is not recorded.
¶ While data is being recorded, it is not possible to record data to
other HOT CUE buttons, input cue points, or perform search or
scratch.
¶ This process is repeated automatically, alternating playback on both
players.
¶ By exchanging the disc on the waiting player and cueing it to a
desired track, you can play a continuing series of desired tracks
from different discs.
¶ When a memory card is loaded, the newly stored hot cue points
will automatically be backed up to the memory card. ꢀ P. 20
¶ If hot cue points are stored while performing scratch, the play-
back may temporarily stop.
¶ By setting a cue point on the waiting player, it is possible to start
from playback from a specifically desired point on a track ꢀ P. 15
“Cue point settings”.
7 Beginning hot cue
Note:
¶ Relay play may not occur properly if both players’ audio out-
put connectors are not connected to the same audio mixer.
¶ If the power is disconnected to the currently operating player,
the waiting player may start playback in some cases.
¶ Since the control cords require different connections, it is
not possible to combine fader start and relay play simulta-
neously.
1. Press the HOT CUE REC MODE button so that the HOT
CUE A, B, C buttons’ indicators are lighted either green
or orange.
¶ Buttons containing hot cue points will light green.
¶ Buttons containing loop data will light orange.
¶ Buttons containing no hot cue points will remain unlighted.
2. During playback, pause, or cue standby, press the button
(A, B, or C) in which the desired start point has been set.
¶ Playback will start instantly based on the data set in the button.
¶ When loop data has been recorded to a HOT CUE button, loop
play will start instantly.
¶ Loop data recorded in a HOT CUE button produces a loop inde-
pendent from any loops set with the LOOP IN/REALTIME CUE
and LOOP OUT buttons; the RELOOP/EXIT button can be used
to cancel the loop, and LOOP OUT (OUT ADJUST) button can be
used to edit the loop-out point, and those edited modifications are
directly applied to the data recorded in the HOT CUE button.
¶ In the case of MP3 playback, hot cue playback cannot be per-
formed on any loop that overlaps multiple folders.
¶ When inserting a CD or memory card, it is possible to restore the
hot cue points previously recorded to the memory card (ꢀ P. 21).
Reverse play
Set the DIRECTION FWD/REV switch to the [REV] position.
The [REV] indicator will light and playback will begin in the reverse direc-
tion.
¶ Playback acceleration/deceleration produced with jog dial rotation will
operate in reverse.
¶ During reverse playback, it is not possible to create new loops or to
edit loop-out points.
¶ If track search or loop play are performed, the audio memory status
indicator (jog dial display) will flash for 1 to 2 seconds, and scratch/
reverse operations may be temporarily disabled.
¶ In the case of MP3, reverse play that overlaps multiple folders is not
possible.
¶ During MP3 play, reverse playback may not occur immediately with
some tracks.

Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing
“comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of sound.
So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and
harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by
setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your
hearing adapts.
THE FOLLOWING NOISES CAN BE DANGEROUS
UNDER CONSTANT EXPOSURE
90 Subway, motorcycle, truck traffic, lawn mower
100 Garbage truck, chain saw, pneumatic drill
120 Rock band concert in front of speakers,
thunderclap
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it
comfortably and clearly, and without distortion.
140 Gunshot blast, jet plane
180 Rocket launching pad
Once you have established a comfortable sound
level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.

hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we
want you listening for a lifetime.
