Main Features
The basic configuration of this unit consists of 4 CD and PHONO
inputs, 4 digital inputs, 2 microphone inputs, 2 master outputs, 1
booth output, 1 REC output and 1 digital output while 1 effect input/
output and 4 USB audio input/output systems are also provided.
This unit is also a DJ full digital mixer which supports 96 kHz/32-bit
digital-to-analog conversion and which comes with USB MIDI and
terminal output MIDI interface functions.
1. Design oriented toward achieving a high sound quality
• The unit features a 96 kHz/32-bit floating digital signal processor
(DSP) and 32-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) (master output).
A sound quality faithful to the original sources is delivered at a high
degree of accuracy.
• The unit incorporates a mic amplifier with a discrete transistor
configuration and a low equivalent input noise of 127 dB as well as
a phono amplifier with a discrete FET configuration and a signal-to-
noise ratio of 89 dB.
• A low-noise R-core transformer is employed for the analog power
transformer. Large-capacity DENON DJ custom electrolytic
capacitors are used in the power supply unit. Furthermore, film
capacitors designed to enhance the sound quality and high-precision
metal film resistors help to configure the audio signal processing
unit. The result is a sound quality which is overwhelmingly high.
2. Operating ease and high-reliability design tailored for
professional use
• Large-sized 3.5-inch color LCD
• Matrix source selectors enabling the user to select any of 6 input
sources
• Long-life conductive plastic faders with a long stroke of 60 mm
guaranteed to be serviceable for 300,000 operations are provided
for the Channel Fader.
The crossfader’s slide torque can be adjusted to achieved the
desired feeling.
• Isolator equalizers are incorporated for each input channel. It is
also possible to customize the crosspoint frequencies of the bands
using presets.
• The headphone amplifier is a discrete transistor drive type with
a push-pull configuration. A high output power of 400mW/40
ohms is delivered to support surefire monitoring in any kind of
environment.
3. Dual effect
• The unit comes with 2 independent effectors which are linked to
the number of beats which has been set in synchronization with the
number of beats per minute (BPM) of the musical compositions. In
addition to the newly developed BeatBreaker, a total of 11 different
effectors including delay, echo, reverberation, looping, flanger,
phaser and pitch shift are incorporated.
• The effect send configuration makes it possible to send multiple
input channel signals to the effector at the same time. This enables
presentations based on effect groups by system A or B, for
example.
4. USB audio and MIDI interfaces
8-channel (4 stereo channels) 96 kHz USB audio input/output function
• ASIO driver which achieves a low latency packed together with the
unit
• USB assign switch function enabling system switching for the USB
audio inputs using one button
• Also available is a MIDI layer function for controlling the DJ software
on a channel by channel basis. MIDI output is enabled for almost all
other operations involving the panel controls.
The 5-pin DIN MIDI output terminals provided support
synchronization with external devices.
5. Other features
• The preset import/export function makes it possible to carry around
the preset data stored on an USB memory or other such device.
This reduces the preparation time.
• Ducking function for reducing the amount of background sound
during mic input
• Channel Fader and Crossfader start function
