The Pioneer DJ PLX-CRSS12 sets a new standard in DJ technology by combining traditional analogue playback with advanced digital control. As a true hybrid turntable, it allows you to perform using both vinyl records and Digital Vinyl System (DVS) control, giving you complete flexibility in any setup.
Whether you're performing live or refining your skills at home, this turntable delivers a seamless blend of classic feel and modern functionality.
Dual-Mode Performance
The PLX-CRSS12 offers two distinct operating modes to suit your workflow:
-
Digital Vinyl Mode (DVS): Control digital tracks in rekordbox or Serato DJ Pro without using the tone arm. This tone-arm-free design prevents skipping, even during intense scratching.
-
Analogue Mode: Play vinyl records traditionally using the tone arm for a classic DJ experience.
This dual capability makes it ideal for DJs who want the freedom to switch between digital and vinyl without compromise.
Precision Control and Customisation
Designed to adapt to individual performance styles, the PLX-CRSS12 includes a range of adjustable features:
-
MAGVEL CLAMP with adjustable tension to control record feel
-
তিন torque settings for customised platter resistance
-
তিন selectable brake speeds for precise stopping control
These options allow you to fine-tune the deck’s response to match your preferred mixing and scratching style.
Integrated Performance Features
The turntable goes beyond standard playback with built-in tools to enhance creativity and workflow:
-
Four MIDI-mappable Performance Pads positioned beneath the platter
-
Quick access to hot cues, samples, loops, and other functions
-
Multiple pad modes supported in both rekordbox and Serato DJ Pro
-
Expandable control through MIDI mapping
This layout is particularly useful for DJs using mixers without performance pads.

-
BPM and tempo range
