In this video i basicaly plug it in and see what i can come up with after a few min of testing it out.
toons are hard drive , deep inside and love and happynes by india - Навчання та стиль
this was exactly what i needed to see in order to convince me that i'm buying the right piece of equipment. thank you!!
That is way cool, i'm quite new and you're constantly opening me up to CD players other than pioneer :D
I just really love the way you match it! :D O.O
Hey Jon picked up a 5500-w- a 250 GB hard drive and one DN-HS5000 to cover cds and scratching. All bases covered. Still have a lot of features to master lol. Thanks for the vids they helped make my decision.

Yes, you can shorten the loop. Use the echo loop instead, then you can do it with the Parameters" knob.
thanks for that, im very tempted to get one now, ive seen cheaper alternatives but like everything, you get what your pay for

you can find the same buttons, but DN-HS-5500 does not have build in sampler feature (DN-S3500 has this feature). It's because in DN-HS5500 buttons in top left corner are used as control to switch betwen deck 1 and deck 2 (layer button) and to switch display one deck view or two decks view in the same time.
Also DN-HS5500 has only 2 hot starts (the same as DN-S3500) and it seems, when you meke loop, you can't then make half, quarter, etc... of the loop by just pressing a button.
you can plug in a keyboard and search more easily!!! i will be givin tutorials on this too! i mean this player is the best i've ever seen. in my eyes the cdj-1000 its just a toy in front of this... denon is so professional!
Correction... the deck can play MP3's (from hd or thumbdrives), just not from the optional cdrom drive.
The DN-HS5500 is not a CD player.
It's primarily a hard drive player for MP3s. A CD drive can be added to it, but it's extra.
3/4
You can trim A or B loop point, but this way is not the same as just getting half, quarter, etc... of the loop.
Next thing is that there are no CD drive inside of the unit. And optional CD drive - BU5501 - will be available in near future - Denon said: "this month". This will be slim type drive, so... maybe there will be problems with CD reading speed or shockproof. Additionally Denon declares, that this player will be not able to read CD-MP3...
4/4
Instead of CD drive you can mount inside of the DN-HS5500 a hard drive caddy - BU5502 - and hard drive (after software update - up to 250 GB HDD PATA type).
And something about price: I have seen new DN-HS5500 on A M A Z O N for about 800$ on US. But remember that if you need CD drive (BU5501), than you have to pay extra (I think even about 200$). The same with hard drive and hard drive caddy (BU5502): it's optional.
There are some things that i miss?
1: When I do a hot list I can't get the hot list to play continuisly with fader, thats strange, it works with other playlists?
2: Why can't it match BMP of the oposite player? Would be preaty easy to do?
3: I find the BPM counter litle to slow, takes a while before you know what bpm the song has.
But it works daam good with Virtual DJ, the latancy is preaty low. And vdj starts as fast as regular player like cdj-400. So that is cool.
Nice piece of kit j..........what do you think the market is as you said one of these and a mixer,,,or as an add on to your other 2 decks....or 2 of these giving in theory 4 decks to play with.....? j
Yes boy I would like to like to own a pair of these .
Denon first released this very cool ability with the 5000 (which is now 6? years old).
The pitch from the first layer stays locked until you switch back to that layer, and it will only adjust again once you move the pitch slider back to the original setting (the setting it was at before you switched layers).
Hey Johnathon, I'm thinking one of these with the cd drive and one with the hard drive, link both together via the d-link throw in a decent dj mixer and this would be the bomb! What do you think?
is this denon compatible with serato as a controller??
J have you ever used this at a gig
is this reliable at all
It cut off, you forgot practise and enjoy! I remember you once making a video with a shout out to someone who reminded you of practise and enjoy. Haha.
najzzzz one - here we have 2013 - what u recommend now ?? help :)
Thanks! I discovered it ;) .
I have this player and what I can say is that you must keep updating firmware, because there was few glitches.
For example: before firmware version 1200 there was not possible to keep music playing after stutter play just by pressing play button while holding down cue button (as stutter); problems with platter movement.
It would be not nice to meet such bad surprises while performing set to the public.
DN-HS5500 is manufactured in almost the same chasis, that DN-S3500 (CD, CD-MP3 player) -
I have a set of 5500's and love them, BUT I hate the 99 only limitation per playlist. If I'd known about this I would not have purchased them. It's caused me days of rearranging and is just a big headache. Does anyone know of any kind of fix via firmware to get rid of this 99 limit ??
HAY WHERE CAN I FIND THE SOFTWARE FOR THIS DEVICE??????
NICE VIDEO
Mhmm should I get two of these or would it be overkill since it would be like having 4 turntables let me know what you guys thing?
Yeap This Gear Has a lot of Features that need some curiosity and creativity. What everyone does is compare that with a Pioneer 1000Mk3, But to be just... is a never ending STORY, is a matter of what you like to do with a deck a how much you want to spend to look cool :-D
HAY BUDDY I WANNA KNOW
WHY IS IT NOBODY CAN FIND THE FIRMWARE FOR THE DENON DN-HS5500 UNIT
CAN YOU PLZ ANSWER THIS??????????????????
this is bloody genuis// 2 in 1?!
thats a monsterrrr
what I ment 2 say is that u could play 4 tracks at the same time. but u would neet a 4 chanel mixer 'cause I've seen the clip on how 2 conect the player and it uses 2 chanels. THIS IS WHAT I THINK, I'M NOT AN EXPERT
yes you couth if you whot have at least 2 flash drivés for eatch dn-hz5500
you alsow couth conect the 2 players whit a eithernet cable. and use eatch player as a divernt deck.
i'm think to buy this 1 looks like a nice player 2 me
so.. 1 is used as turntabler and the auther as controler vor the socond deck of the auther dn-hz5500
I should have been more clear with my answer. I should of quoted the original question.
"this is bloody genuis// 2 in 1?! "
Denon first released this very cool ability with the 5000 (which is now 6? years old)
they look fancy I bet the price is fancy too :(
not really. you can get it from the states for 950 dollars! relatively cheap :D!
These units suffer badly from cue slip, tried to contact Denon but all they ever say is they're working on it!
so u can actualy have 4 sources of music with 2cdj's... cool
ok.
j
u could also save somme money with this one, insted of 4 u buy 2:D
its not in theory! you will have 4 decks. and if you get this and a mixer its cheaper!
@oxxide
-1
get 2 decks if your starting off
gotta have 2 decks
no, it doesn't
