Introducing the AlphaTheta DJM-V5, a next-generation 3-channel DJ mixer

Refined sound crafting and wireless monitoring in a compact unit.

Craft your own sound with the DJM-V5, a next-generation compact 3-channel mixer from AlphaTheta. This new mixer draws on the design philosophy of the Pioneer DJ DJM-V10, the 6-channel professional DJ mixer used at festivals and clubs around the world, which is renowned for its outstanding sound quality and precise mixing performance, making it a favorite among DJs.

The AlphaTheta DJM-V5 takes the essence of the DJM-V10 and condenses it into a more compact 3-channel unit. While it’s physically smaller, it offers massive potential for uncompromising creative mixing, even in DJ booths with limited space. You can use a more advanced range of effects, including upgraded filters and Send FX, to express yourself when you play with the AlphaTheta DJM-V5 – no matter what the setting. And the built-in SonicLink transmitter, which uses AlphaTheta’s unique ultra-low-latency wireless technology, enables you to perform with greater freedom. Simply pair it with HDJ-F10 headphones and you can monitor your music wirelessly with minimal latency, giving you new possibilities to enjoy a seamless and flexible mixing environment.

With its streamlined layout and refined feature set, consolidated into a compact unit, the AlphaTheta DJM-V5 brings precise sound control and creative performance capabilities wherever you choose to play.

Key Features

Smooth mixing in a compact design that delivers pro-level control

Mix intuitively and creatively on the 3-channel AlphaTheta DJM-V5, even in DJ booths with limited space. The mixer inherits the layout, tactile feel, and many features of the DJM-V10 – including the 4-band EQ, compressor, filter, and Send FX – but has a 30% smaller footprint.

While it’s compact in size, the AlphaTheta DJM-V5 retains a professional feel and flexible sound-shaping capabilities. You can precisely control levels with the 60-mm long-throw channel faders from the DJM-V10-LF and, when you lower one, the new Soft Mix Curve fader mode automatically applies subtle high-frequency attenuation to create smoother, more natural blends.

High-resolution, warm sound quality

Building on the acclaimed high-resolution warm sound of the DJM-V10, the DJM-V5 delivers well-balanced mixing that avoids sonic saturation – even when you layer multiple audio sources. It features studio-grade 96 kHz / 64-bit mixing DSP processing, with high-quality 32-bit A/D and D/A converters from ESS Technology built into the channel input and master output sections.

Every audio component was carefully selected and optimized for the unit, with repeated listening tests conducted in real-world environments including clubs. The result is a refined audio signature that maximizes sound contours, spatial expression, and even the silence between notes.

Widen your spatial expression with Send FX

Add texture to your music with 6 expressive effects:

• Short Delay
• Reverb
• Shimmer
• Tape Echo
• PingPong
• Echo-Verb

Each channel includes a dedicated send knob for intuitive control. The time knob adapts to each effect, combining BPM-synced operation with smooth time adjustment.

Shape your sound with 3 types of filters

Each channel features a dedicated filter knob with 3 selectable modes:

• Low-pass
• High-pass
• Cross-pass (new)

The cross-pass filter retains low frequencies while gently filtering mids and highs, enabling new styles of performance.

Built-in SonicLink transmitter for ultra-low-latency wireless monitoring

The AlphaTheta DJM-V5 is the first mixer to feature a built-in SonicLink transmitter, enabling comfortable, low-latency wireless monitoring when paired with compatible headphones.

*HDJ-F10 headphones do not support pairing via the headphone touch area.
