DJ EXPO, ATLANTIC CITY, NJ, August 15, 2005
— Denon DJ takes its innovative world’s first spinning active platter
design to the next technical level. Introducing the industry’s new
flagship DN-S3500 tabletop CD/MP3 player with a powerful 12-pole Direct
Drive motor, 7 on-board effects, intuitive control, appealing design
and style that will surely reinvent the tabletop market for all vinyl
and digital DJs alike

The core interface of the DN-S3500 utilizes Denon’s all new proprietary
12-pole Direct Drive brushless motor design, delivering instant full
rotation speed with a powerful 2.5 kg/cm of start-up torque within 0.5
seconds for true turntable reaction and response. Selectable platter
speeds of 33.3 or 45 rpm offer analog manipulation suited to the user’s
preference. Seven onboard effects — including four superb built-in
effects such as Flanger, Filter (High-Mid-Low), Echo, and the world’s
first Echo Loop — are available for realtime performance control and
feature full parameter adjustment and a unique wet/dry mix control for
the effects. Three platter effects — Brake (adjustable in real-time),
Dump (reverse sound without losing true forward time) and Reverse (with
new reverse platter spin action) — allow DJs to interact with their
CDs, CD-R/CD-RWs and MP3 files as if they were on a analog turntable.

Like other highly acclaimed Denon DJ CD/MP3 player turntables, the DN-S3500
features full MP3 playback support for complete control over today’s
most popular musical formats. MP3 functions include Frame Search, MP3
Hot Starts and Seamless Looping with B point trim, ID3 tag display for
Artist, Title and Album, support for constant bit rate (CBR) and
variable bit rate (VBR) decoding up to 320 kbps, and a powerful MP3
File Search System that can quickly and easily locate hundreds of files
in various folders. Also available is a new MP3 Memo system that saves
the user’s cue points and loops to internal memory, as well as the
world’s first ID3 BPM tag, which automatically recalls the BPM metadata
of a given MP3 file. Furthermore, once a track is chosen using the
convenient parameters knob, Denon DJ’s Next Track Function with
Crossfade — another world’s first — allows the user to search for the
next track to be played, then set the unit to crossfade seamlessly at
the conclusion of the current track. This provides non-stop mix action
using tracks on the same disc, and applies to CDs as well.

The DN-S3500 also includes many powerful sample and
loop functions for extended mixing capabilities. In conjunction with
the 15 second on-board sampler, the world’s first Seamless Loop to
Sampler Copy function allows even further creative possibilities during
a performance, such as exchanging the disc during sample playback and
overlaying CD scratches using the sampler. The world’s first Two Way
CUE Search System features both Denon and Pioneer® cueing methods to
give further customization towards the DJ’s stylistic preference. A
convenient Forward/Both directional lever that controls the output of
your scratch strokes. Two Hot Starts and seamless loops with B point
trim can be set on the fly, as can further Key Adjustments and Cue
Stutter points. CD Text support provides scrolling display of track
names when used with many commercially available discs or with the
user’s own CD-R/RW compilations. Deep pitch resolution of .02% and .05%
for the ±4/10% range is available for DJs who require critical beat
mixing and precision. Full pitch control is available in increments of
±4%, ±10%, ±16%, ±24%, ±50% and ±100% for CDs, with MP3 pitch
adjustment in the range of ±4%, ±10% and ±16%. Shockproof memory is
provided for both CD (20 seconds) and MP3 (100 seconds). Three-way
pitch bend is controllable using the scratch disc, pitch bend buttons
or the traditional finger-pressure along side the spinning platter.

Additional CD manipulation features include Pitch On/Off, Key Adjust On/Off,
Seamless Loop, and a Memo function which can store Cue Point, A and B
point data, BPM, Playback Pitch and Range for later recall. Up to 5,000
track points can be saved to internal memory and shared with others
Denon players. The instant start (0.02.seconds) integrity and high
quality player mechanism assure further confidence and control in
performance applications.

The convenient Power On Play feature allows for unattended playback on
power up, and unattended Relay Play is possible between two DN-S3500’s
for smooth uninterrupted playback when the DJ requires a short break.
The unit is also compatible with all Denon DJ mixers for Fader Start
Control directly from the mixer’s interface. Convenient Play Lock and
Eject Lock features prevent unintentional track change or disc eject
during a live performance. Furthermore, customizable paper slip mats
can be applied under the removable clear scratch disc for platter
personalization. A large fluorescent tube display provides ample
at-a-glance recognition, with extra visual cues such as the EOM
function which flashes the status time bar to alert users that the
current track is about to end, and 3-way BPM counter. Features include
a digital output and CD-ROM upgradeable internal software to round out
this complete digital DJ turntable solution.
