The DJM-A9 is a professional-grade 4-channel mixer designed for clubs and DJs. It offers significant upgrades over its predecessor, the DJM-900NXS2, with improved sound quality, enhanced playability, and advanced connectivity. The mixer is built to deliver clear, high-resolution sound and features a new input section with high-quality A/D and D/A converters.
The DJM-A9 provides a spacious layout with increased spacing around the EQ knobs and bright LEDs for easy sound level monitoring. It offers dynamic performance capabilities with optimized isolators and high-quality channel faders, including the third-generation MAGVEL FADER crossfader for smooth mixing and scratching.
 
The mixer introduces the Centre Lock feature, which allows precise control of Sound Colour FX knobs without accidentally switching parameters. A color display provides visual feedback and intuitive control, especially with the X-Pad for changing effects. The DJM-A9 includes 14 Beat FX, including three new ones, and a dedicated button for applying effects to specific channels.
 
A notable feature is the phantom-powered input, enabling the connection of a high-quality condenser microphone directly to the mixer. The DJM-A9 offers three new microphone effects (Echo, Pitch, Megaphone) with a dedicated reverb effect, perfect for vocal performance and crowd engagement. The Push To Talk button allows quick mic activation, and the mic audio can be excluded from recording output if desired.
 
Connectivity options include dual USB Type-B and Type-C ports for seamless transitions between DJs and back-to-back sets. The Bluetooth input allows wireless audio track playback from devices like smartphones, with the ability to apply mixer features and effects. The Multi I/O section provides independent channel selectors for external effects, and separate cue buttons and volume knobs for two DJs to monitor tracks simultaneously. The mixer also features a 2-band booth EQ for customizing the booth sound.
 
Additional features of the DJM-A9 include improved design for comfort and playability, a color Beat FX display, dual independent headphone outputs, booth EQ controls, and compatibility with both rekordbox and Serato DJ Pro software.
 
Overall, the DJM-A9 sets a new standard for club mixers, offering exceptional sound quality, versatile connectivity, and innovative features to elevate DJ performances to the next level.
