Hybrid Mode for DNS3700 & DNS1200

[DenonDJAus]

With the revolutionary new Denon DJ Hybrid MIDI mode free F/W download, current users and future owners of the DN-S3700 or DN-S1200s will be able to use various supported DVS applications (on either a PC or Mac®) such as Serato™ Scratch Live for direct spinning platter control (for DN-S3700). The new HYBRID firmware uses Denon DJ’s world’s-first built-in Relative mode timecode signal generator, and in conjunction with a DVS-supported sound card or Denon DVS-supported mixers such as the DN-X1600 and DN-X600 you can eliminate your traditional CD timecode (and flash drive) media for control of your DVS. Your DVS’s required tone is now generated from inside the player’s DSP and outputs through the analog RCA connectors of the DN-S3700 or DN-S1200 during Hybrid mode. Various other surrounding keys and knobs are freely available to MIDI map as seen fit. Other firmware improvements with this release include new Auto BPM detection engine, doubled Platter Resolution (for DN-S3700) and position accuracy via a newly-added preset. With the addition of MIDI Hybrid mode, the DN-S3700 Digital Media Turntable is giving working DJs an even more comprehensive tool and solution they need to succeed and grow their creative talents at a very affordable cost.

Will post when firmware download available in September.

hey matt, i asked you on ITM about the time code thing with traktor... just wondering if you guys have had a chance to test it yet?

ie. the 3700s

also, who is stocking the dnx1600? The places I'd usually buy gear fromdon't have them listed on their website

[DenonDJAus]

Hi Lloyd,

I haven't tested the hybrid mode yet as the firmware hasn't being released. It should be available in the next two weeks or so.

The DNX1600 isn't due into Australia until October.

[DenonDJAus]

Lloyd,

Just thouoght I'd let you know that I received a sample of the DNX1600.

Will let you know next week my thoughts after having a play with over the weekend!

Cheers

[lloydc]

sweet as... whats the price going to be on these?

send it my way once you're done playing

ps. are these the same dimensions as the djm800 (for road case purposes) ?

[wazza]

I to would like to know the price off the X1600

Love the idear off the V-link on the X1600

Can you run the V link and the Audio/ midi at the same time..???????

If you can the x1600 will the best audio/midi mixer for video mixing

[DenonDJAus]

The DNX1600 will retail for $1999.00.

Dimensions are: 320(W) x 357(D) x 91(H)

Wazza,

I believe you can run them a tthe same time. I will confirm this once I've had an extensive play with the machine.

Cheers

[lloydc]

hopefully we'll see these for $1500 or less

compared to the djm800, they are the same width and slightly shorter and slightly lower.

in other words, this will fit in an RC3 road case with my 3700s

happy happy happy

PS. hurry up with your review (which will be biased ) on this mixer

[lloydc]

waiting

[DenonDJAus]

some more testing required

However, having only tested the mixer with TT's and vinyl the cross fader is tight (Alps fader) and great if your into scratching! Channel faders are more for the club DJ than the scratch DJ and aren't as responsive as I prefer.

The effects unit is much better than that of the DNX1500 (if you've played with DNX1700 - same effects units!) Denon have certinaly improved the effects available which give you more options than the standard found in some mixers on the market.

Very clean sound (even when using vinly) but will be doing more with DNS3700s and traktor for those of you using DVS systems and how the DNX1600 operates / integrates.

Cheers

[lloydc]

I'm glad to hear that it has a very clean sound, this is probably #1 on the list of features. Hopefully it will be as good as my urei that i'm currently using.
