Groundbreaking Next-gen Remixing Ignites
After more than a decade of transforming DJ sets around the globe, the successor to Pioneer DJ’s RMX-100 has finally arrived, and Sweetwater’s most-demanding gigging DJs can confirm: the wait was well worth it. Enter the AlphaTheta RMX-IGNITE. This polychromatic powerhouse pairs a hexad of evocative per-band effects with a suite of spatial contouring tools, set-supercharging sampling, and revamped sonic architecture for an all-in-one professional DJ effector. From subtle shaping to explosive wave-bending manipulation, RMX-IGNITE gives you uncompromising control over each band of its aural output, promising power and precision with every tweak and transformation. Across Lever and Isolate FX, low-, mid-, and high-frequency spaces are yours to sculpt, weave, and warp, either independently or freely combined. Onboard sample pads and dedicated Sample Color FX unlock scorching realms of live-remixing possibilities, augmented by the effector’s versatile creativity-first connectivity that spans Pro DJ Link, a digital send/return via USB-C, and a deluge of flexible external-sampling possibilities. To summit the peaks of boundary-pushing DJ sets, the AlphaTheta RMX-IGNITE is your match to strike.

Multimode sampling to supercharge your set
Of the myriad tools introduced with the RMX-IGNITE, AlphaTheta’s decision to outfit the effects unit with an onboard sampler overhauls your live-remixing and sound-design possibilities. Embrace endlessly customizable grooves, one-shots, drums, synths, and anything else you dare to drop into your mix via four sample-trigger pads. While the RMX-IGNITE comes preloaded with 20 Loopcloud samples, the rear-mounted USB-A Sampler port lets you connect your drive to load any sound that suits your style, with the help of AlphaTheta’s dedicated, free-to-use RMX-IGNITE Sample Manager software. No matter how you source your samples, this effector’s expressive capabilities ensure you wield them to the fullest extent. Utilize the six Sample Color FX to utterly transform your sound, and explore the 10 rhythmic patterns of the Sample Roll to amplify the nuance, fluidity, and power of your sampled sonics.
Two effects lanes, endless creative possibilities
Like its predecessor, the AlphaTheta RMX-IGNITE’s 3-band architecture elevates it above conventional effects units. This next-gen DJ suite offers two distinct ways to ignite your output: Lever FX and Isolate FX. When inspiration strikes, Lever FX are your lightning-in-a-bottle solution, instantly applied to any or all of the 3-band range. The Isolate FX suite utilizes continuous knobs — teeming with satisfying tactility — for nuanced, methodical per-band transformations, shaping progressions, transitions, and set-defining moments with unyielding control.
Isolate and Lever FX can be mixed, matched, and overlapped to suit the moment, with each lane supported by an additional Sub Parameter knob to further refine and shape the tone of your timbral and time-tampering tools. When you need to effortlessly reset your sound, the single-button Release Echo seamlessly disables all effects and samples, leaving a smooth echo tail on your attack, thanks to the function's Dry mode. With the Release Echo operating in Mute mode, you’ll instantly cut your entire output, breaking for heightened impact and dramatic mid-set switch-ups or polymetric blends.
Sync sonics, digital dynamism, and endless Pro DJ Link power
With over 10 years of industry innovation in the rearview, AlphaTheta harnessed its expertise to ensure the RMX-IGNITE’s sonic suite would supercharge sets of nearly any hardware, software, or hybrid setup. To achieve this visionary aural-effectuation milestone, the RMX-IGNITE is endowed with two game-changing options: Pro DJ Link and Multi I/O. Using the Pro DJ Link network connection allows you to weave your RMX-IGNITE into lock-step synchronization with compatible hardware — including the DJS-1000 and CDJ-3000X — transforming your on-the-fly mixing and re/sampling possibilities. This is made all the more powerful through real-time recording via the sampler’s Overdub mode. What’s more, Pro DJ Link-connected hardware can load samples directly from USB drives or SD card readers on those connected devices. With the Multi I/O USB-C port, digital send/return connections to compatible mixers — such as Pioneer DJ’s DJM-A9 or DJM-V10 — immediately unlock the full force of these galvanizing external effects, masterfully preserving and reproducing audio over the digital signal with faithful fidelity in tow.
Note: The use of Pro DJ Link and/or the digital send/return of the Multi I/O USB-C terminal requires compatible hardware and firmware with connected devices. Please contact your Sweetwater Sales Engineer with any questions or to see a complete list of eligible gear/qualifying parameters.
Overhauled audial architecture: pro-grade sound, always
The decision to build the RMX-1000’s successor after more than 10 years afforded AlphaTheta’s engineers the opportunity to completely revamp the audio architecture of the RMX-IGNITE, drastically enhancing quality, clarity, and precision over the prior-gen effects unit. These improvements owe to AlphaTheta’s addition of studio-grade 96kHz/64-bit DSP, alongside the blazing fidelity of the ESS Technology 32-bit A/D and D/A converters. With this ultra-high-definition audial armature underlying your effector’s aural aperture, the AlphaTheta RMX-IGNITE is truly the premier sonic suite to set up your setup, flat-tuned to guarantee every nuance and detail of your mix and tracks are faithfully preserved at all times.
