The Denon DN-S1000

Denon DJ exhibited three new products at the recent NAMM Convention: the DN-S1000 Compact CD/MP3 Player and the DN-X100 Compact Performance DJ Mixer, two portable devices designed to complement each other, as well as the DN-X300 Performance Mixer, a highly versatile scratch mixer. The new products join Denon DJ’s full line of products for working DJs.

Denon DJ’s new DN-S1000 Compact CD/MP3 player is designed to offer many of the same features and benefits of the company’s tabletop DN-S3000 in a compact, easily portable package. The DN-S1000 features a pressure sensitive platter that can be used to mix, scratch, backspin, brake, search and otherwise manipulate as if it were an analog turntable.

In addition to advanced MP3 functionality, the DN-S1000 includes essential onboard effects such as Scratch, Reverse, Brake, Filter, Flanger and the world’s first Echo Loop, which can loop a 1/4 beat up to a 8/1 beat indefinitely, allowing a DJ to overlay another track or even a new disc for a seamless crossfade mix. Other useful features include two seamless loops, B-point loop trim, user-definable paper slipmats and a 3-way BPM counter (Automatic, Tapping, Manual). Additional features include a Fast Search/Manual Search and Quick Jump, which enables DJs to literally “jump” around within a CD or MP3 track using precise adjustable increment time steps.

The Denon DN-S1000 is currently available with an MSRP of $499.00.

The new DN-X300 is a versatile scratch mixers, while the portable DN-X100, is a small professional-quality DJ mixer designed as the ideal “traveling companion” for Denon’s new compact DN-S1000 CD/MP3 player.

Both units offer numerous input and output terminals for maximum flexibility and utility. Both new Denon DJ mixers include features such as Crossfader & Channel Fader Contour Adjustment, Crossfader & Channel Fader Reverse function (hamster), Program Channel Reverse function and 3-band Knob EQ (with a 3-way Kill switch on the DN-X300).

A Crossfader and Channel Fader Start Trigger is also provided, offering compatibility with Denon’s DN-S5000, DN-S3000 and DN-S1000 CD/MP3 tabletop players.
