Push 3 Standalone BPM sync w/ DJM Mixers or CDJs

Post by onefm1 » Fri Feb 21, 2025 10:56 pm

Is it possible yet to sync the BPM with a standalone Push 3 and CDJ decks or DJM mixers? I know the Pioneer DJM mixers have midi capabilities, but I haven't seen anything comprehensive out there on the exact abilities and connections. Being that the DJM mixers, and CDJ decks are the club standards, I would imagine Ableton would have made it a big priority for syncing capabilities. Without a laptop.

It has Ableton Link, Pioneer do not... They have ProDJLink, the two things are currently not compatible unless you use some proprietary software.

Maybe one day!

It's supposed to work with a laptop and the Rekordbox performance / Ableton Live software, but even that is getting bad reviews. The Push standalone receives midi clock out, but it floats, and isn't dependable. I find it hard to believe they don't find this worth of addressing.

Who Ableton or Pioneer? It's Pioneers responsibility to implement Link in their softare, i've never had any trouble using it with Rekordbox or indeed Serato. But obviously that won't work with CDJ's on their own...
