The XDJ-AN is a new 2-channel all-in-one DJ system from AlphaTheta. It’s designed to help bridge the gap from bedroom DJing to playing professional gigs by making it easy to perform with multiple music sources in a familiar club- style workflow.
PRODUCT MOTIVATION
To help DJs level up their skills and comfortably transition from playing at home to performing
in clubs.
AUDIENCE
The XDJ-AN is perfect for beginners who are serious about getting into DJing, as well as people who’ve got some experience using controllers
and want to raise their game and familiarize themselves with club-style gear
Direct access to music streaming services for DJing and track discovery
With StreamingDirectPlay, you can access tracks from streaming services directly on the XDJ-AN and mix them seamlessly with music from other sources. This removes one of the traditional barriers to DJing by reducing the need to buy, download, and manage large music collections before starting to play gigs.
The Info Search feature finds tracks related to the one you’re playing, making music discovery smooth and intuitive. And, with support for rekordbox CloudDirectPlay, you can access your rekordbox library stored in Dropbox or Google Drive and instantly play your cloud-based music directly on the XDJ-AN via a compatible rekordbox subscription.
Cloud-based playlist editing and library management on the touchscreen
Using Cloud Library Sync with a compatible rekordbox subscription plan, it’s easy to manage your cloud- based music library directly from the XDJ-AN. The changes you make on the unit, such as adding Hot Cues and editing playlists, are automatically synchronized with the cloud.
Works with mobile apps for more ways to perform
The XDJ-AN works with DJ apps such as rekordbox for iOS and djay for iOS so you can perform using the app of your choice. You can easily start DJing using just your smartphone, and, even in environments without a Wi-Fi connection, you can perform using tracks saved in advance on your mobile device. The unit also supports the DJM-REC app for live streaming and recording, enabling you to extend your reach through social media.
Club-standard layout and media compatibility for a smooth transition to pro venues
With a layout based on the professional CDJ and DJM series gear, the XDJ-AN helps ensure a smooth transition from DJ controllers to club-standard setups. Connect a laptop to the XDJ-AN and you can use it with DJ software such as rekordbox for Mac/Windows, Serato DJ Lite, or djay Pro. The unit also supports playback of music stored on USB drives.
Ultra-low-latency wireless monitoring with built-in SonicLink transmitter
The XDJ-AN features a built-in transmitter for SonicLink, AlphaTheta’s proprietary ultra-low-latency wireless audio technology. By pairing the unit with compatible headphones, such as the HDJ-F10, you can start monitoring wirelessly right away – there’s no need for extra transmitters or cables. SonicLink delivers high-quality, high-volume sound with latency as low as 9 msec, which enables you to perform without noticing a delay.
High-quality sound design and flexible audio connectivity
Building on AlphaTheta’s longstanding expertise in sound design, the XDJ-AN delivers clear and powerful audio at all volume levels and in any environment. As well as its XLR outputs for professional equipment and RCA outputs for connecting to a wide range of audio devices, it features Bluetooth® input/output for extra flexibility.
