PLX-CRSS12
The Turntable Without Limits
Vinyl soul. Digital precision. Infinite possibility.
The AlphaTheta DJ PLX-CRSS12
The PLX-CRSS12 from AlphaTheta isn’t just another turntable – it’s a bold reimagining of what a professional DJ deck can be. Built for battle DJs, turntablists, and creative performers, the PLX-CRSS12 breaks new ground by combining the authentic feel of analog vinyl with cutting-edge digital control – and doing it without compromise.
Two Worlds, One Deck
At the heart of the PLX-CRSS12 is its ability to instantly switch between traditional analog vinyl playback and digital DVS control – with no timecode vinyl required.
In DVS mode, you control your DJ software directly through the motorized platter, using rekordbox or Serato DJ Pro. A sensor under the platter reads your movements with pinpoint accuracy, giving you natural, responsive control. Need to spin a real vinyl record instead? Just flip a switch – the PLX-CRSS12 becomes a true analog deck, complete with Pioneer DJ’s renowned high-torque motor and ultra-stable performance.
For DJs who live in both the digital and analog worlds, the PLX-CRSS12 finally offers one machine that does both – without compromise, without workarounds.
A Turntablist’s Dream
The PLX-CRSS12 isn’t just flexible – it’s fiercely engineered for performance.
Adjustable torque settings allow DJs to customize the feel of the platter to their personal preference.
Whether you prefer the tight resistance of battle-style scratching or a looser, more classic vinyl feel, you’re covered.
Newly designed Magvel Clamp technology allows for custom tension settings, ensuring that the slipmat and vinyl behave exactly how you want them to, even during aggressive cuts, backspins, and juggling routines.
The tonearm has been fine-tuned for maximum stability and skip resistance, a critical factor for turntablists pushing technical routines to the limit.
Add in features like performance pads for hot cues and sample triggers, and the PLX-CRSS12 doesn’t just match the competition – it leaves it behind.
Built to Rule the Future
In an era where digital performance is king but vinyl remains sacred, the PLX-CRSS12 offers DJs something no other deck truly delivers: authenticity and innovation, in one seamless experience.
Whether you’re scratching your way to a championship, spinning deep house sets in an underground club, or rocking open-format parties with creative flair, the PLX-CRSS12 gives you the freedom to shape your performance – without having to choose sides.
For those who believe that the turntable isn’t dead – it’s evolving, the PLX-CRSS12 is proof that the best days of DJing are still ahead.
