Made of Metal

If you want to go pro, don’t go plastic. With its rugged metal body, NS7III crushes the competition, literally. It’s built like a tank.

Dedicated Hot Cue Controls

For the performing DJ, hot cues are simply too important to bury. With dedicated buttons to set and recall, NS7III places comprehensive hot cue control at your fingertips, no digging required.

3-Way Touch Filter Knobs

NS7III’s filter knobs give you unprecedented capabilities. Each filter has three modes: Filter alone, Filter FX, and Filter Roll.

Touch Effects & EQ Knobs

A first-of-its kind feature that revolutionizes modern DJ performance, NS7III’s effects and EQ knobs are intelligent, responding instantaneously to your touch, giving you capabilities you haven’t even imagined ... yet.

Filter Roll

One of the greatest effects you can imagine. By activating Filter Roll, the filter knobs become touch-sensitive and you control a high-/low-pass filter alongside a roll that increases with intensity the more you turn, giving you an instant energy-infusing way to get the crowd moving and leave them breathless. To leave the roll, simply let go of the knob; the filter remains until you’ve turned it back to zero.

Instant Frequency Kills

One tap of the Shift and Touch buttons and NS7III’s traditional EQ knobs become touch-responsive. Kill the low. Kill the mid. Kill the high. Or kill the entire song, all with your fingertips. All four channels on NS7III feature touch-response EQ knobs, giving you instant on/off control for dynamic creative flourishes whenever inspiration strikes.

Filter FX

With one tap of the Filter FX button, each of NS7III’s four filter knobs commands both its filter and an effect of your choice. Turning the knobs will engage a high-/low-pass filter plus the effect, and both the filter and effect increase or decrease in intensity as you turn the knob.

Revolutionary Effects Control

To add an effect, touch the knob. It’s that easy. To adjust the effect, turn the knob. It’s never been easier to interact with your mix. NS7III empowers you with spontaneous performance capability that feels so natural, you’ll wonder where you end and the music begins. 12 Isotope effects to choose from, 2 effects banks per channel, 3 effects per bank, 6 effects simultaneously on any channel.

Real Velocity-Sensitive MPC Pads

For decades, Akai Professional’s MPC pads have been the go-to for performance and production with an unmatched percussive feel and response. NS7III gives you expanded live performance capability with 16 MPC pads—each has classic MPC feel, plus they’ve been updated with RGB illumination, so you have instant visual feedback of what mode you’re in.

Multi-Color RGB Technology

No guessing. No vague mono-color flashing. NS7III’s 16 multi-color pads tell you exactly—and instantly—what mode you’re in, so you can spend your time mixing instead of decoding.

Full Onboard Song Navigation Control

Whether you have 1,000 songs or 10,000 songs, NS7III gives you total command over your music library with dedicated controls that keep your hands off the mouse and your mind in the mix.

Ergonomic Pitch Controls

Easily accessible, the Pitch Bend and Tempo controls are exactly where you need them to be with nothing in the way. You'll never graze a slider or button by accident with NS7III's fool-proof layout.

Pitch 0 LED

Mixing in the dark is easy. Every crucial function on NS7III gives you visual feedback, including the Tempo faders, which have a red LED at 0, so you can be 100% sure—instantly—when the fader is back to center.

Master FX

When you want crush, crash, sweep, or surge the entire mix, the Master FX button puts the power in your hands. Apply your effects across all four channels and hang on for the ride.

BPM Meter

With NS7III, beatmatching is visual, quick, and obvious. You never have to look at your computer again to match BPM.

Curve-Adjustable CP-Pro Crossfader

Surrounded with a healthy border of seamless and smooth metal, the replaceable CP-Pro crossfader lets you cut and crab with precision—there are no screws or seams to scrape your knuckles on.

Spring-Loaded Bleep Reverse

With NS7III, critical capabilities have dedicated controls—they’re not buried and don’t require you to use modifiers or spend time accessing submenus. The Bleep/Reverse switch is solid and spring-loaded, so it returns to center automatically.

Split Cue Headphones

No monitor? Blown monitor? No problem. Flip the Split Cue switch and your headphones are instantly split, the house mix in one ear, the cue mix in the other.

4 Deck Selectors

Over time, mixing becomes an instinctual experience driven mostly by muscle memory, so NS7III is designed with your intuition in mind. The four new deck selection buttons are large and located exactly where you need them to be. Combined with its multi-color and intelligent touch-response capabilities, NS7III’s entire control surface makes mixing second-nature.

Enhanced Strip Search

Strip Search, Numark’s exclusive virtual-needle-drop technology now includes a parallel string of bright red LEDs, so you can tell where the track is just by looking. In addition, unlike some imitations, the Strip Search touch strips are positioned intuitively, so you will never hit them accidentally.

2 XLR-1/4” Combo Mic Inputs

NS7III’s main mic input has its own dedicated channel, so all four mixing channels are always available, never taken up by your mic. Plus, the second mic input can be assigned to any channel and switched on and off as needed.

External Device Inputs

Connect drum machines, keyboards, microphones, CDs, or even turntables. NS7III has all the inputs you need on the rear of the console.

Instant Beat Grid Control

Underlying the immense creative capabilities of NS7III are practical onboard controls to give your mix a solid foundation. The all-new Beat Grid buttons let you fine-tune your beat grid on the fly, so all of your effects, slices, and loops fire off perfectly.

2 Large Shift Buttons

All of your primary controls are easily accessible on NS7III, and when you need the second layer, two large shift buttons give you instant access from either deck. And they’re positioned so you only hit them when you want to.

Enjoy the Views

Toggle through multiple views at the touch of a button. The new View button gives you full control over how Serato DJ is displayed on your screen as well as multiple options for effects and sample panel viewing.

Slip Mode

Slip Mode keeps the track moving but muted when you grab the record or start scratching. When you’re done, the track will resume as if you’d never stopped it. Slip Mode combines with With NS7III’s motorized platters and real vinyl discs to give you the ultimate modern platform for turntablism.

Low-Profile Spindle

The updated low profile center spindle adapter above each record prevents accidental knuckle grabs during rotation. Plus, it’s fully customizable for your mixing style both in tightness and look—use your own 45.

Timeless Tape Markers

Some things can’t be improved upon. Taking another cue from the classic turntable setup, NS7III features track indicators on both vinyl records to keep you visually locked on your cue points.
