Dear Sir/Madam

Thank you for your question and we are sorry for the delay in responding.

There are compatibility between CDJ-1000MK3 and CDJ-2000/900 using SD card.

When creating CUE point with CDJ-1000MK3 you will be able to Call/Delete with
CDJ-2000/900.

When creating LOOP with CDJ-1000MK3, IN POINT will be the same but the OUT POINT
will be +0.5 Frame ahead of the actual address.

WAVE FORM will be displayed to the scale of each CDJ-2000/900 display.

We do not have plan to release file format specification but will create a chart
for CDJ users
to easily understand the compatibility between each other on our support
website.

Thank you again for your interest in Pioneer DJ products.

Pioneer Corporation, Tokyo, Japan
