- Blending Timeless Turntable Design with Modern Functionality The PLX-CRSS12 seamlessly integrates classic turntable layout elements with a modern twist – 4 built-in MIDI-mappable Performance Pads. These pads, conveniently positioned below the platter, enable users to effortlessly trigger Hot Cues and samples with unmatched speed. Our device offers native support for a range of pad modes (details below), and a dedicated button makes it easy to switch control from pads 1-4 to 5-8. What's more, our MIDI mappable pads grant users the freedom to program each pad according to their specific preferences.
- Native pad mode support
- Serato DJ Pro: Hot Cue, Sampler, Stems, Scratch Bank, Roll, Saved Loop

- The built-in OLED display allows performers to easily locate the tempo range and key when Step Pitching with Analog or Digital Vinyl mode. When using Digital Vinyl mode, users can reference BPM, key, deck number information, and the name of the software running.
- The PLX-CRSS12 has been carefully built based off the highly acclaimed sound quality of the PLX-1000 professional DJ turntable.
- As with the PLX-1000, the upper part of the chassis is made of high-mass die-cast zinc and the lower part is made of 8 mm (about 0.31 in) thick resin to optimize the chassis structure and vibration-damping materials.
- The use of rubber tubes inside the tone arm has further improved vibration control performance over the PLX-1000.
- The RCA terminals are made of machined gold-plated parts, and the phono signal is directly transmitted through a stable connection with the plug to reproduce the sound of analog records with high-quality audio.
- A switching power supply is used to eliminate transformer power supply vibration and flux leakage while suppressing unwanted noise, creating high-resolution sound quality.
Additional clamps are available to buy if users want to take their own set on the road, or if they need to replace a clamp that’s been lost. Users can store the MAGVEL CLAMP neatly in a dedicated area on top of the deck.
The PLX-CRSS12 has a matte black color scheme, with special coatings applied to the tone arm and other metal parts, plus carefully crafted details that give it a robust and elegant appearance.
- The PLX-CRSS12 is compatible with Serato DJ Pro and rekordbox.
- By connecting this unit to a PC/Mac with DJ software installed, and to a mixer that supports the DVS function of the respective DJ software, users can start playing in Digital Vinyl mode and use the Performance Pads.
