DENON DJ UNVEILS THE DN-X1600 DIGITAL MIXER
— Powered by the same core engine as the flagship DN-X1700, the DN-X1600 is
a versatile, cost-effective mixer for professional club or studio use,
as well as for party DJs and amateur spinners —
— DN-X1600 the world’s first digital DJ mixer to be introduced with V-LINK, allowing DJs to perform a wide range of visual effects simultaneously with their music —

1. Load on old version of SSL (before Native DN-HC1000S support)
2. Do a manual custom MAP. Assign only the buttons on the HC1000s that you want to be different. For instance: Assign Tap to Internal
3. Go to Setup/ MIDI and name and save your MIDI Map.

10 months after it’s End-of-life (EOL) announcement, Denon has release a firmware for the DN-HS5500. It promises to fix the Random Cue Slip many users have been complaining about that was added with the last SYS 1300 update.
• Improved Random Marker Point drift when scratching

Tired of reaching for your volume knob every time your mp3 player changes to a new song? MP3Gain analyzes and adjusts mp3 files so that they have the same volume. As many normalizers do, MP3Gain does peak normalization, and some statistical analysis to determine how loud the file actually sounds to the human ear.

Shure announced there latest headphones: SRH750DJ. Many D.J.s have counted on Shure products for there cartridges and microphones, now you have quality DJ headphones to go along with it.

Right on the heels of Denon’s DN-HC1000S announcment, Native Instruments launches Traktor Kontrol X1. Like the 1000S, I would have preferred a horizontal unit to put above my mixer, not to the right or left.

The song went to number one on the Billboard Hot 100. I always thought this song was about Sheila E.
