i think the problem with the most vinyl dj's who are using a cd-player with a non rotating platter is that they are used tho sweep the platter.
the dj bends the correction to far and will get a upbeat.

i'm still prefering a non rotating platter on a cd-player.
why make it rotatin when u got accurater contole when it doesn't rotate.
for turntabelism i think a rotating platter is better.

and iff i want to scratch i will use my vinyl.
however the numark cdx is perfect for turntablism.
and denon made a good 3500 but i'll stay with pioneer
its still the best cd-player for mixing records

I like the pioneer because I believe that its a lot more accurate, because instead of you breaking the platter speed when mixing, i think its a lot easier to beatmatch when you the platter doesnt spin..

(P.S i don't scratch much, so i have no opinion on that)

non-rotating for me as well - don't know how to qualify my decision yet i'm pretty firm where i stand - guess its just about personal preference

NON-Rotation JOG Wheel..

for me is Vinyl mode just an Extra (for Backspins , Scratches etc..)

As I already stated in another topic: the rotating platter on Denon players can be stopped by a simple push of a dedicated (no double function-) button. After that, you can pitch bend by turning the platter by hand, Pioneer style.


This works on all Denons with active platter: DN-S3000, 5000 and 3500.

Yep, like victorn says.

With a Denon, you can choose a rotating or a non-rotating platter.
With a Pioneer you only have a non-rotating platter.

When you like to spin like vinyl, you put on the rotating platter with the press of 1 button.
When you rather like to spin like Pioneer, you just turn it off.

I have 2 DN-S3000's and I love them and I also like Pioneer.
It doesn't matter for me, a real DJ can play with all gear.

I change my mind about the spinning platters... they are quite impressive after all... I tried the denon 3500, and i liked what i saw.. It was smooth and it had no digital distortion when scratching...

Good job Denon, but i still like the cdj's more Happy, laughing

For scratching: Rotating.


For normal mixing: I don't mind.

I prefer pitch bend buttons for making corrections. I don't understand why Pioneer didn't put them on the 800mk2 / 1000mk3.

It's the best way of making corrections.


I own 2 Denon S3500. Last week played for the first time on a 800, but a bit to short to make a good judgement. But I really mist the pitch bend buttons

If you have a turntable background I can imagine that you prefer a big rotating platter such as on the Numark CDX or Technics SL-DZ 1200.


The small rotating platter of the Denons is just for the looks, because it's not the same size it doesn't offer the exact same handling capabilities of a truntable. Nothing said that it is not a good player.


If you have a CD player background then a non rotating platter is the best thing. Also the Numark iCDX which I see as the successor of the CDX and HDX has a non rotating platter. But I would like the jog bigger then on the Pioneers or Numark Axis models.

A non rotating platter is the best.
Why?
Simple, the "pitch bend" funktion of a non rotating platter
is more equal/stable than with a rotating platter or Turntable.

I meant if you're in love with vinyl. There are people that are you know. So don't say bad things, because they will feel hurt.
