Pioneer announce EFX-1000 and a EFX-500-R limited edition

The new EFX-1000 effector offers discerning DJs the best audio quality possible with a 24-bit/96kHz digital-sampling system and 32-bit digital sound processing. The bypass function of the EFX-1000 enables the user to process the effects with their original high sound quality. Any serious club or studio DJ will immediately hear the impact of the increased processing power, which results in better audio quality in their mix. Pioneer’s EFX-1000 builds on the unique features in previous effectors by including a wide range of sound effects in an easy-to-manipulate system.

”With its impressive range of powerful effects and features, the EFX-1000 gives DJs even more scope for creativity in their sets and studio work,” said Karl Detken, director of product planning for the Pro Audio group of Pioneer Electronics (USA) Inc. “The enhanced audio quality is particularly critical for the studio market as well as for those performers who can only have their name associated with the best.”

The new, limited edition EFX-500-R DJ effector from Pioneer Electronics (USA) Inc. offers a red-hot new look to go along with unrivaled digital technology. This effector offers a tremendous selection of sounds for the most dynamic and challenging mixes ever. “When you’re in the spotlight, you want to create a signature look that helps set the stage for a performance,” said Karl Detken, director of product planning for the Pro Audio group of Pioneer Electronics (USA) Inc. “The metallic red style of the EFX-500-R helps a DJ create that signature look – and that signature sound. It’s a limited edition product that Pioneer developed to respond to requests from DJs who want to add some visual flair to their set-up.”

The EFX-1000 will be available in January at a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $999.
