The DMP-555 breaks new ground by combining
the immediacy of MP3 with established CD technology and the emerging
SD standard. By displaying market leadership in this way, Pioneer
once again explores and expands the creative opportunities available
to bedroom and Pro DJs alike. |
DIGITAL MEDIA PLAYER
World's first Digital Media
Player with
MP3 & SD technology |
The DMP-555 is compatible with CD Audio and
MP3 formats and will playback from both CD and SD Card. Since
these are capable of storing a huge number of MP3 tracks and
loops, the DMP-555 allows DJs to enhance their sets and mixes
with the latest music from around the world.
When the slim, compact and portable SD Card is used for mixes,
the DMP-555 effectively becomes a sampler. This ground-breaking
innovation is possible because MP3 loops can be BPM sync'd
to the CD output and then fired on cue. In addition, the Master
Tempo control can be used to slow down or speed up SD audio,
without the pitch being affected.
CD ripping, loop editing and music file management are simple
operations with the bundled DJ Booth software. And because
the application simulates a set-up using two Pioneer CD players
and a mixer, it's easy to master the playback, mixing and
editing functions in no time at all. It's even possible to
control the software from the DMP-555 itself, making DJ Booth
the most innovative and user-friendly application available
to today's digital DJs.
