The Pioneer DJ DJM-S5 is a scratch-style 2-channel mixer designed to bridge the gap between entry-level experimentation and professional battle mixing. Built for immediate integration with Serato DJ Pro, this mixer combines a straightforward layout with innovative features like the Magvel Fader Pro and USB bus power, making it an ideal choice for both beginners looking to learn and pros who need a portable practice rig.
Innovative Performance Tools
Whether you’re refining your technique or performing a full set, the DJM-S5 is equipped with features that simplify complex scratching techniques. It balances pro-level hardware with intuitive assistance tools to help you expand your skills without a steep learning curve.
Scratch Cutter: Emulate the popular transformer scratch technique with ease. By selecting one of six cutting patterns and engaging the effects lever, the mixer applies a cutting effect in perfect time with the music on the other deck, allowing you to focus on your record movement.
Crossfader Hot Cue: Create scratch-like sounds without moving the control vinyl. This feature allows you to play a track or sample from the most recent Hot Cue point simply by moving the fader away from the edge, enabling rapid, rhythmic playback that mimics scratching.
Effect Levers: Gain tactile control over your mix. The DJM-S5 features two large effect levers — the same size as those on the flagship DJM-S11 — allowing you to control up to 57 Serato DJ Pro effects. You can hold them for momentary bursts or lock them in place to keep your hands free for browsing or scratching.
Polished Performance and Precision
The DJM-S5 offers a playing experience that feels substantial and responsive. It includes the same high-quality faders and pads found in top-tier Pioneer DJ equipment, ensuring the skills you build here translate to club-standard gear.
Magvel Fader Pro: Customize your resistance. This crossfader features Feeling Adjust, allowing you to tweak the "weight" of the fader to your preference. It’s built with a rigid vertical knob mounting axis to withstand energetic and repetitive scratch techniques.
Performance Pads: Experiment with your creativity using 13 different pad modes, including Hot Cue and Sampler. The four 20.6mm pads on each deck provide a responsive way to trigger samples and remix tracks live, adding texture and depth to your performance.
Serato Integration: Simply plug into a PC or Mac to unlock Serato DJ Pro immediately. The mixer also supports Serato DVS, meaning you can use analog turntables with control vinyl or DJ players to scratch and control your digital tracks without needing an external license or soundcard.
On the Move: Design and Portability
Modern DJs often need a setup that is easy to transport without sacrificing functionality, and the DJM-S5 is the first Pioneer DJ mixer to be powered entirely via USB.
USB Bus Power: Practice and perform anywhere you can carry your laptop and decks. This mixer draws power directly from the USB connection, eliminating the need for a separate power supply while still delivering bright, wide-ranging sound across all genres.
New Design Aesthetic: The top plate features a split design with a gloss red finish and black detailing, mimicking the look of a musical instrument. A transparent window on the front panel displays the inner workings of the Magvel Fader Pro, while integrated grab handles make the lightweight chassis easy to carry.
Standalone Capability: Despite its digital focus, the DJM-S5 functions as a standalone mixer. You can play music from a variety of analog sources, such as vinyl records, giving you the flexibility to mix old-school formats alongside your digital library.
Your New Scratch Companion
Upgrade to a mixer that offers the freedom to practice anywhere and the tools to perform professionally. The Pioneer DJ DJM-S5 mixer is built for pros but simple enough for anyone to use.
