Cumberland RI, USA (January 18, 2016)—Denon DJ (www.denondj.com),
a leading manufacturer of premium DJ products and solutions, today
announced the introduction of its new MCX8000 DJ controller with its
exclusive and revolutionary Engine software. The MCX8000 gives the DJ
total command over Denon DJ’s revolutionary Engine™ media player and
Serato DJ software on the same control surface. This is a true
professional standalone DJ Player/Controller. The DJ can run Engine and
Serato DJ at the same time—a major technological advance in both
flexibility and creativity. With the MCX8000 two DJs can seamlessly hand
off from one to another combining Engine and Serato DJ.DJs can use the MCX8000 with USB drives by opting to use Denon DJ Engine—without a computer connected!
