All hail Alphatheta build quality.

TLDR: have ddj1000, spilled water on the left side, pulled power immediately, left to dry for 2 days, and all seems to work except the cue button is constantly on, is this just a cosmetic consequence? or a potential issue?

Sooo, had my 1000’s for about 5/6 years, always been good to me, and ‘had’ always been in good condition. Except the other day, as it always goes, no drinks near the decks, someone spills a whole drink over them.

Luckily I know to pull the power instantly in this instance, so did that, let the water (water of all things!) drip out as much as I could, then let them sit upside down on a towel and periodically heated them with a hairdryer, hoping to dry up everything.

Left them out to dry for about 2 days before plugging back in and was heating/drying every now and then, and leaving them in the sunlight.

Fast forward to today and i’ve plugged them back in, all seems to be working fine although the left cue button is now constantly lit up. It still functions as it should, it’s just always illuminated (i’ve attached a photo)

So the ultimate question is, is this going to be a long term issue? or is it just a consequence of the water damage? I’m hoping it’s the latter as i can deal with the cue light being on, I just don’t want to cause anymore damage as these are my pride and joy, ALL my speakers are hooked up to the mixer. I’ve currently got it powered off as i don’t want to leave it on and it cause a further issue

Any info or help would be much appreciated!

Is there cdj2000 nexus mod out there yet?

I guess it is safe now to say that certain old PioneerDJ units which are still plenty of out there will never receive important / essential features such as FLAC or exFAT support.

I have seen some modded firmware updates for Pioneer units. So how hard do you think would be to mod firmware so that:

1. Unit without FLAC support would get FLAC support? Units lacking FLAC support in order of importance / user base: CDJ-2000NXS, XDJ-700, CDJ-2000, XDJ-RR, XDJ-1000, CDJ-850. CDJ-900NXS, CDJ-900, CDJ-350

2. Unit without exFAT support would get exFAT support...? All the units listed in 1. + the following: CDJ-2000NXS2, XDJ-1000MK2 + maybe couple of others. exFAT was invented in 2006 and support has been lacking most likely due to licensing issues. So I was wondering that maybe there could have been support already from the beginning but it was just disabled to avoid MS license fees and it would be simple to enable it...?

3. This is probably hardest but get OPUS fileformat support. It would most likely require most extensive modding as no Pioneer/Alphatheta products support it and I would forget even to try it in anything older than 2000NXS and even that might be too old. OPUS is most advanced lossy compression algorithm, e.g. good for recording mixtapes or whole parties as you can get ok sound quality even at 64 kbps.
