The system supports a range of customizable features like the Maglev Clamp that can be changed according to the weight of the record.

The Pioneer PLX-CRSS12 also features sampling, hot cues and MIDI pads that will work with Serato and Rekordbox. The system is available now for DJs and audiophiles alike to preorder for $1,399 and is slated to arrive in late September 2023.
