Connect the DDJ-200 to your iPhone and mix songs from your iTunes via Pioneer's app, WeDJ. Or connect the software to SoundCloud Go+ and Beatport’s new Beatport LINK streaming service to access huge online sources of music. Download Algoriddim’s djay iOS/Android app and you can mix tracks from Spotify (Premium account required), or download MWM SAS’s edjing Mix iOS/Android app and access content from and Deezer.

The layout of the buttons and dials on the DDJ-200 inherits the style of Pioneer's professional DJ equipment. Pioneer has also added the Tutorial and Transition FX features to WeDJ for iPhone.

The smart DJ controller is compatible with WeDJ for iPhone straight out of the box. Also, to use the record box dj, you just need to connect your PC/Mac with the DDJ-200 – there is no need to enter a license key to get advantage of Pioneer's professional performance app.

DDJ-200 compatible DJ apps and their corresponding devices and streaming services

The DDJ-200 can reproduce various patterns of DJ mixes between tracks. Activate the Transition FX feature in WeDJ, choose from 11 patterns and simply slide the crossfader to switch from one track to the next via a professional-standard transition.

Pioneer's phrase analysis algorithms will analyze the composition of your tracks and detect phrases. When you tap the dedicated buttons in WeDJ for iPhone, Phrase Sync uses the information from this analysis to align the start and end positions of the phrases in two tracks so you can be sure it will sound natural when you switch between them.

You can take the DDJ-200 wherever you want, thanks to its lightweight and slim body. There’s no need to carry speakers because you can play sound from the built-in speaker of your smartphone, tablet, or PC/Mac. And the DJ controller can be powered via a power bank, so you don’t even need to stay close to an outlet.

Use split cables to separate the audio output of your smartphone, tablet, or PC/Mac into master and monitor outputs. This enables you to check audio via your headphones, e.g., cueing the next track, while the crowd hears the master sound playing through the speakers.
