New Denon Controllers

[Aristotle]

Will come out in october in the uk and nearly same price as the s4 , so s4 comes with software so better buy i think ?

I'm really stoked for the DN-SC2000 to come out. How's about a cheap way to control your extra decks on TSP. Nice and long pitch fader to boot.

how does this compare to AA VMS-4?

I dont think it does to be honest, I heard horrible things about the VMS-4, plenty of people returning it for horrid sound quality and engineering (i.e: noise bleed from faders when they are completely lowered)

Yep totally different class of controller from the American Audio thing. This competes with the S4 and the Xone DX very well I think though.

It comes out in November.

It will be $799 in the US (not sure about pound/euro pricing) which is $200 cheaper than the S4.

Will not have the S4 software (only Traktor LE in europe).

From what i understand it doesnt have timecode (shame) but it doubles as a conventional mixer.

It weighs 10-12lbs.

Not sure yet about the soundcard but id guess a 24/96.

Here is a pic with top/front/back.

what i like is that it has 4 sample buttons on each side. is that based around vdj (which i believe is what i ships with in US) or geared toward when the sampler update comes out for TPro?

also it's release date suggests that maybe it's le version might have some kind of simplified version of the samplers, as hopefully by then the TPro update would have been released...?

Man, I'm really weighing this against the S4. It's such a bummer the US version only comes with VDJ, I wonder if I ordered the Euro ver. what issues I might have. I'd guess just power, which a simple converter would fix... Hmmmmm

Yeah I'm liking this to. Can't wait for some real world tests against the S4. I already have traktor Pro so I'm not worried about what it comes with.

cloning my post from the s4 thread (with a couple of changes)

uk price looks ok....

as per usual the optimism of decks.co.uk has amused me

"Place your order in the next 2 Days 22 Hours 35 Minutes and 9 Seconds for delivery in 4 days (Tuesday 24 August 2010)"

You can get your hands on a copy of Traktor LE in minutes by asking for any spare ones people have sitting around.
