    Also make sure you download the latest firmware. I just updated and it's increased the screen refresh rate even more and fixed some link problems I was having on stream. UPDATE YOUR FIRMWARE!!!!

    Btw I forgot to talk about screen responsiveness. It feels snappier than the NXS2 but still resistive touch with the same screen material. Cotts mentioned it’s possibly because people have drinks, sweaty fingers etc while DJing as moisture causes capacitive screens to become unresponsive or glitchy.

    CDJs are just a buncha players. You know they all hook up with Miss DJM-V10. She's all about the back-to-back tag-team cueing. Hooks up with six players at a time. And she's down for Multi I/O ... inserted on any channel. Nasty AF.

      Over 17000$ for a full V10+CDJ setup. Peanuts even for festivals right during/after Corona. Right?

    The MPU is actually the NXP iMX processor, which is an ARM Cortex CPU running a special addition of Ubuntu Linux OS, which was introduced with the RX, RX2, RR and XZ. The NXS2 uses a TI DSP chip with it own firmware. That explains the faster boottime of the 2000. The 3000 is mostlikely multicore, where XDJs are single core.
