Main Features

The basic configuration of the input and output systems for this unit is as shown below.

  • 5 CD Inputs, 3 PHONO inputs
  • 2 Microphone inputs
  • 2 Master outputs
  • 1 Booth output
  • 1 REC output
  • 1 Digital output
  • 1 Effect input/output
  • 4 USB audio input/outputs

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 5 pin 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.
  • An electrolytic capacitor designed to enhance sound quality is employed 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.
  • The unit incorporates a microphone amplifier with a discrete transistor configuration and a low equivalent input noise of 126 dB, as well as PHONO amplifier with a signal to noise ratio of 89 dB.

2. Multiple Effect

  • The unit comes with an effector which is linked to the number of beats which has been set in synchronization with the number of beats per minute (BPM) of the musical composition.
    In addition to the newly developed BeatScratch and Ping Pong Delay, a total of 14 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.

3. USB audio and MIDI interfaces

  • An interface prepared specifically for the MIDI controller increases controllability of the DJ software.
  • 8-channel (4 stereo channels) 96 kHz USB audio input/output function
  • DVS (Digital Vinyl System) is supported. (See page 19 for more details of the DVS function.)
  • Also available is a MIDI layer function for controlling the DJ software on a channel by channel basis, and the effect control section on an individual basis. MIDI output is enabled for almost all other operations involving panel controls.
  • The 5-pin DIN MIDI output terminals provided support synchronization with external devices.
  • ASIO driver which achieves a low latency packed together with the unit
  • USB assign switch function enables system switching for the USB audio inputs using just 1 Utility Preset button.

The unit is equipped with the V-LINK (V-LINK) function. V-LINK is a function developed by Roland Corporation that allows musicians to simultaneously integrate audio and video. Connecting devices that support V-LINK to the MIDI terminals makes it possible to perform a wide range of visual effects that are linked with the musical performance.

5. Operating ease and high-reliability design tailored for professional use

  • Isolator equalizers are incorporated for each input channel. It is also possible to customize the crosspoint frequencies of the bands using presets.
  • The crossfader's slide torque can be adjusted to achieved the desired feeling.
  • Equipped with a high contrast VFD (vacuum fluorescent display) that provides outstanding visibility.
  • Matrix source selectors enabling the user to select any of 6 input sources

6. 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 setting time.
  • Ducking function for reducing the amount of background sound during mic input
  • Channel Fader and Crossfader start function

BeatBreaker Function

What the BeatBreaker effector does

This effector breaks down the music signals in each bar obtained from the BPM value a quarter beat at a time into 16 sections, replaces these sections with a preset beat pattern, and then plays them back to achieve an effect where the beat of the original musical composition is changed.

Details of operation

The beat patterns consist of 16 blocks, and when these blocks are lighted, the sound is being replaced by the initial sound of the beat.

When this effect is ON, the left block and beat display are used, and the block being played is indicated.

Example:
DENON DN-X1600 - Details of operation - 1
In the case of pattern 1 shown in the figure, when the music signals 2 are input, the sound of signals 3, which are produced by replacing the sound of the first quarter beat with the lighted section, are output.
