Frequently Asked Questions
Does the DJM-A9 support wireless audio? Yes. You can pair a mobile device via Bluetooth to stream audio directly into the mixer, which is perfect for playing requests or background music without needing extra cables.
Is the Center Lock feature optional? The Center Lock is a physical toggle switch located on the mixer. You can turn it on when you want to ensure the knobs stop at the 12 o'clock position, or turn it off for traditional, free-flowing rotation.
Can two DJs use their own headphones at the same time? Absolutely. The DJM-A9 features two entirely separate headphone processing systems (A and B), so two DJs can cue different channels and adjust their own volumes independently.
