About this product
The DENON DN-S3500 is a digital DJ player featuring an active motor platter for tactile control, similar to a turntable. It supports MP3 playback and offers effects like Echo, Flanger, and 6 types of platter effects. With Hot Start and Seamless Loop functions, it suits versatile DJ sets. Inputs include line and phono, plus a digital output. Sampling at 44.1 kHz, this unit is priced at $1,194.26.
Our take
I've been using the DN-S3500 for a few gigs now and the active motor platter really gives a vinyl feel when scratching. The effects are decent but not groundbreaking – Echo and Flanger cover the basics. MP3 playback is handy, but I wish it supported higher sample rates. The build feels solid, but the price tag is steep for a single player without a mixer. Hot Start and loops are responsive, making live remixing easy. Overall, a good option if you crave motorized platters but don't expect modern software integration.
