Denon DN-S3700 Digital Media Turntable

Denon DN S3700 Player: Hi, everyone. My name is Silvio Zippieri, Denon DJ brand manager for North America, and today I’d like to talk to you about an exciting new tabletop product which is called the DN S3700 digital media turntable. This is the product here, and basically, what it does, it’s a CD player, it’s a USB hosting device, which mean you can connect your iPod, your thumb drive, or a very large hard drive to it and stream music into the player. It’s also a mini controller, so you could use this as your interface to control various DJ software, in addition to using our internal sound card as well. It has various features on the player, such as seven humboard effects, which are located here and here, high tech direct drive motor, the motor itself can spin at 33 rpm just like a genuine turntable. It does have three levels of torque adjustment, high, mid, low. This area here is for making hot starts or auto loops. A very wide display here, which is angled up for better visual, and this section here is for making loops manually. So you can just hit the in point and the out point as well. If you do have a USB connected, we offer an additional piece of software which is called a Denon DJ Music Manager, and that allows you to do various things like create the database for your device. It creates a wave form that you see here in the display, so this is a representation of the sound that you’re playing. And this gives you a visual, just like vinyl, of where a break point might be coming, and that’s the point for you to mix, as well as various information, the time, the type of file, the pitch, and VPM. Down here, we have break, dump, and reverbs. These are platter effects. Break basically is like turning the power off on a turntable; it just winds down to a slow stop. Dump is what you would hear basically on a radio edit of maybe a hip hop song that has explicit lyrics. You hit that; it reverses them in real time. And reverb actually spins the platter backwards. The player will be shipping at the end of February, and we’re very, very excited about it. Thanks.
