UK - Denon has overhauled its popular DN-D4000 professional dual CD/MP3 rack-mount player, introducing a number of new features. Known as the DN-D4500, the new playback device features vastly-extended MP3 functionality - including hot starts - which will come as great news for the mobile and club DJ requiring a simple workhorse with high reliability.

How to improve an already award-winning product was the challenge facing the Denon design team, who turned instinctively to the MP3 section of the player. As a result, Key Adjust, Auto BPM Counter, MP3 Seamless Looping with B-Trim edit, MP3 Hot Starts, MP3 File Search System, MP3 Frame Search, CUE Stutter and wider +/-24/50/100% pitch ranges for audio CD's are just some of the enhancements that have been introduced.
