January 22, 2001Designed with today's cutting edge DJ requirements in mind, this digital mixer
offers high-quality playback features and a multitude of input and output options
in a single 4 rack space unit.
The first unit of it's kind, the DN-X800 takes full control of advanced mixing
capabilities and performance features found on Denon's DN-1800F, DN-2100F and
DN-2600F CD players. X-Effects such as Denon's Hot Start, Fader Start, Brake and
Sampler functions can be controlled through this one, multi-function unit. Also
included are Input Gain controls, along with HI, MID and LOW tone controls (-26
dB ~ +10 dB) for further manipulation and tweaking of analog and digital signals.
The DN-X800 also offers a wide range of input and output options for optimal
performance and compatibility when building or adding to a specific setup. 14
different accessible inputs are provided for connecting to multiple devices of
various formats. 4 digital SPDIF inputs are provided, as well as 8 line and 3
phono connections. 2 microphone inputs (balanced and unbalanced with Post on/off
switch) are included and a balanced Send/Return effects loop provides even flexibility
when connected to outboard effects and other devices. The units' 8 outputs include
2 digital SPDIF outs, balanced Master and Zone outputs, and unbalanced Master,
Booth and Tape outputs. A separate subwoofer output is also provided along with
a control for crossover frequencies to be sent to the sub for greater sonic precision.
Interface controls on the unit are laid out in an intuitive and performance-friendly
manner. High-quality 45 mm slide faders provide for precise control of signal
from subtle nuances to all-out full dynamic extremes. Cross fader assignment selector
and contour level controls allow for smooth and stable transitions between program
material, while Cue and Program pan controls give the user even greater sonic
separation capabilities. For easy visibility and instant recognition, a split
cue H/P monitor and display with a Zone meter adjustment are included.
The DN-X800 is available in March for the suggested list price of $700.00. For more information, visit their web site at www.denon.com. |
