Announcing: Pioneer DJM-S9

Serato announces forthcoming support for the all new Pioneer DJ DJM-S9 mixer in Serato DJ.

Following on the success and legacy of Pioneer DJ’s classic 2-channel DJM-909 mixer, the DJM-S9 takes things a step further, offering a number of new hardware developments as well as tightly developed integration with Serato DJ.

The DJM-S9 is designed with exciting DJ performances in mind. Large performance pads, and customisable FX controls give DJs direct access to take control of their music creatively with Serato DJ. Plug-and-play Serato DJ support is provided with two soundcards, allowing easy B2B sets and seamless DJ changeover.

The DJM-S9 will be available from late October 2015.

A limited edition gold DJM-S9-N will also be available from November.

The Pioneer DJ DJM-S9 will be supported as a Serato DJ Enabled mixer in a forthcoming Serato DJ release.
