Review: XDJ-AZ DJ Controller

AlphaTheta’s brand new XDJ-AZ controller adopts the familiar layout and functionality of high-end equipment like the CDJ-3000 and DJM-A9, offering a seamless, intuitive experience for DJs. With full-sized jog wheels, the XDJ-AZ ensures smooth pitch bending and scratching, mirroring the feel of the flagship CDJ-3000. The mixer section is designed with an intuitive layout, similar to the DJM-A9, with conveniently placed controls that make it easy to assign Beat FX, allowing DJs to express themselves creatively.

The system includes CloudDirectPlay compatibility, giving you direct access to your rekordbox library via the cloud, ensuring you always have your latest playlists and performance data at hand. Additionally, StreamingDirectPlay integrates with Beatport Streaming, allowing you to mix tracks directly from its vast music library.

The XDJ-AZ also offers versatile connectivity options, supporting playback from USB drives, PCs, mobile devices, and external gear like turntables. With a USB Type-C port and built-in Wi-Fi, it ensures flexible performance options, whether in the studio or at live gigs.
