Compact MIDI controller is designed for the home DJ or party laptop DJ on the go 03-Nov-10

Denon DJ is now shipping its DN-SC2000 Controller that we first brought you news of in September. They tell us that the unit is an affordable, compact, professional-grade, solid steel MIDI controller designed for the home DJ or party laptop DJ on the go.Here's what they have to say about it...

Used together with the DJ's favorite mixer and PC software of choice, the DN-SC2000 offers party and bedroom DJs a compact, portable, user-friendly control solution. A two-layer system, the unit can control two decks at once (with visible deck color change), or be paired with another DN-SC2000 unit to control four decks.

The DN-SC2000 is optimized for TRAKTOR® Pro users and natively supported by Virtual DJ. The unit connects with the user's PC or Mac® via a USB 2.0 interface. The DN-SC2000 includes many advanced functions, including MIDI-mapable capability, auto loop function, a wide range of effects, rugged pitch slider, pitch lock, automatic beat sync, durable rubber button controls and much more.
The feature-rich DN-SC2000 also includes:

Newly designed, high-resolution 105-mm touch-sensitive jog wheel
