AlphaTheta DDJ-GRV6 4-channel DJ Controller with Groove Circuit

AlphaTheta designed the AlphaTheta DDJ-GRV6 4-channel DJ Controller with Groove Circuit to merge cutting-edge creative control with club-standard interfacing. This 4-channel DJ controller inherits its intuitive yet detailed layout from the titan of stage-blazing setups: Pioneer’s CDJ-3000 and DJM-A9 turntable-mixer combo. The DDJ-GRV6 isn’t merely an all-in-one iteration of the Pioneer powerhouse, however, as this unit is as much an instrument unto itself as it is a menagerie of mixing magic, primarily due to one electrifying, game-changing feature: the Groove Circuit. Custom drums and rhythms can be instantly and effortlessly swapped, dropped, and rebuilt, giving you access to on-the-fly remixes and unrivaled rhythmic design. Add to this a suite of performance pads, Beat FX, stem separation, extensive multi-device support, and compatibility with both rekordbox and Serato DJ Pro, and you’ve got a genuinely next-gen DJ controller that mix-masters are raring to let rip on the stage.

Note: The Groove Circuit feature works exclusively with rekordbox. When using the DDJ-GRV6 with Serato DJ Pro, the same controls function as Serato’s Stems FX stem-separation tool. Please contact your Sales Engineer with any questions.

Groove Circuit: custom drums for any track, with rekordbox

AlphaTheta’s Groove Circuit can be imagined as a dedicated, all-in-one suite of performance effects, sound design, and composition exclusively for drums and powered by recordbox. With virtually any style or genre, the DDJ-GRV6’s dedicated suite of Groove Circuit controls lets you remix, re-work, or completely replace partial or complete drum tracks. Transitions, build-ups, fills, and breakdowns are now yours to shape and wield, thanks to the Groove Circuit’s four distinct tools: Drum Swap, Drum Roll/Trans, Drum Release, and Capture.

Drum Swap: real-time drum replacement for tracks active on your current deck, with loops seamlessly swapped from a customizable bank, with a single-button push

Drum Roll/Trans: your go-to spot with four slots for on-the-fly drum rolls, fills, and transitions, with expanded rhythmic contouring available from dedicated Roll and Trans effects

Drum Release: a toggle switch that allows you to apply Release FX to your drum parts at any time, augmenting beats and breakdowns with depth and dimension

Capture: your one-click tool for extracting the drum part of whatever track is loaded in your deck; automatically saved to recall with your track of choice later

Stems FX: elevated, modular mixing via Serato DJ Pro

When using the DDJ-GRV6 with Serato DJ Pro, the Groove Circuit is transmuted into a one-stop shop for surgical stem extraction and imaginative mixes, using the exacting precision of Serato’s Stems FX tool kit. Dedicated buttons for instantaneous extraction of Drum, Bass, Vocal, and Melody parts let you weave and manipulate distinct stems, applying Roll, Trans, Echo Out, and Delay effects for individual parts. Plus, AlphaTheta’s included a pair of overlays that drop right on top of the Groove Circuit, eliminating any confusion around use with Serato DJ Pro.
