Pioneer DDJ SZ

Tweaks and changes

There are a few tweaks I would like to make to the DJ booth, and I have also included some additional information below that specifically relates to the DJ controller that will sit in the draw. (The actual DJ controller that will be installed into the draw is shown here on the right hand side - Pioneer DDJ SZ - I think the DJ booth can be made a little slimer so that it can wheel through a standard door width with ease now we have detailed dimensions of the unit that will sit in the draw, perhaps 650-690mm wide?

I would also like to be install some connectors into the worktop and the sides of the DJ booth as previously mentioned. However, I’m not sure what material the worktops and the side panel will be made from? can you please advise on that?

The DJ controller:
The DJ controller, at present, sits in a swan flight case as shown in this picture below.

As you can see from the following two pictures, this particular DJ controller has important connectors at the rear of the unit and also a headphone jack and cross fader adjustment dial at the front of the unit. There needs at least 80mm clearance on the back and easy access to the front of the unit in order to connect headphones and adjust the cross fader control dial. The flight case manufacturer has got around this challenge by using a drop down flap on the front and a recess for the back. The rear the until needs at least 80mm clearance to accommodate the various input and output cable types (perhaps 90-100mm would be best as it's a slight sqeeze at 80mm when it comes to plugging in cables and connectors - see below)

Back of the unit

Front of the unit - headphone jack on the left and cross fader dial on the right

The official dimensions for the Pionner DDJ SZ controller as taken from the Pioneer website is as follows:

Width: 870mm
Height: 98.4mm
Depth: 419.5mm

PLEASE NOTE: the official depth of the unit includes the protrusion of connectors and buttons on the front and back of the unit, the actual main base is 410mm deep as shown in the picture below

As you can see from the next picture below, the flight case sponge has been cut out to accommodate connectors and create easy access to the front headphone jack. The dimensions for supporting the main base is 410mm deep x 870mm wide. The recess in the sponge to accomadate the buttons and connectors on the front and rear of the controller are 765mm x 415mm

Connectors
As regards to the connectors, I have a rack mounted mains distribution board to go on the inside of unit, therefore, I only require one, may be two, mains power inlets. As regards to the other connectors, I have purchased some Neutrik type 'through' connectors. Is there an extra charge for drilling the holes for these items in the panels? if so, what would be the cost?....and, Would it be best to send the connectors to you (I will complete all the cable and wiring myself) Please advise

Side panel connectors
Mains inlet - IEC maibs socket x 1 or 2
XLR SPEAKER sockets x 2 (one on each side)
Powercon mains connectors (one on each side)
HDMI socket x 2 (On on each side)

Top panel/worktop connectors
USB typ A X 4
HDMI X 2
2 x UK mains sockets

with the above info relating to the DJ controller, do you think we can make the DJ booth can be made a little slimmer?
