The DDJ-GRV6 features large jog wheels that are ideal for scratching, 8 Performance Pads which are positioned above the jogs – just as they are on the flagship CDJ-3000 multi player – and Beat FX from the DJM-A9 in the mixer section. All this means you can play with a feeling similar to using club-standard equipment, and perform dynamically by combining expressive scratching with pad and effect techniques that are perfect for club sets.
The new Smart Rotary Selector on the DDJ-GRV6 allows for up/down and left/right tilting as well as conventional rotation and push operations when using rekordbox for Mac/Windows ver. 7.

Apply the overlay sheet included with the DDJ-GRV6 to change the button labels to Stems FX for ease of use.
You can choose to use the DDJ-GRV6 with not only rekordbox for Mac/Windows but also rekordbox for iOS/Android. With the option of playing via a mobile device, you have freedom to DJ in your preferred style and in a variety of different settings.
*The DDJ-GRV6 does not support Bluetooth® connections.
*Only channels 1 and 2 are available for playback in rekordbox for iOS/Android.
While it includes many advanced features, the matte black finish and ergonomic design mean you can easily find your way around the DDJ-GRV6. Despite the variety of functions, the minimalistic display and indicators offer intuitive access to the functions you need. And the Groove Circuit, one of the unit’s key features, is cleanly laid out above the Performance Pads with a “step up” in between, ensuring you won’t accidentally touch a jog wheel when you’re using it. This sleek design allows you to get creative in performances that can be as simple or intricate as you like.
The mixer section has 4 channels, so you can create mashups freely, or scratch on the fly.
Connect your PC/Mac or mobile device directly to the controller’s USB Type-C terminal with a single cable. For PC/Mac, power is supplied via USB. For mobile devices, power must be supplied to the DDJ-GRV6 from an outlet or mobile battery.
Thanks to a built-in sound card, the DJ controller connects straight to your speakers or amplifier with a single TRS/RCA cable.
Plug your DJ controller into your PC/Mac and start DJing – there’s no need to install an audio driver.
