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
