Features
This model is the official audio mixer for the DMC-sponsored World DJ Championship, an event held annually since 1997 that brings together
professional disc jockeys from all over the world. It is a top-of-the-line audio mixer with the kind of outstanding design, functions, and sound
quality that suits the requirements of disc jockeys accustomed to giving scratch-mixing performances in a variety of ways.
Operating ease
This audio mixer is the same height as SL-1200M3D for operating
ease.
By providing adequate space in the panel layout around the chan-
nel faders and cross fader and by eliminating protruding parts, full
rein can be given to individual technique which exactly reflects the
mood of the moment even when it comes to high-powered scratch-
mixing.
Functions
The model comes with both high and low equalizers so that all man-
ner of sound sources can be accommodated to generate a highly
creative style of sound. A wide margin of creativity in producing sound
is provided since the attenuation is set to a high –24 dB (12 dB/oct).
The model is equipped with [TRIM] controls (
±
10 dB) which com-
pensate for differences in the source level.
By adding a pre-fader monitor, the channels selected by [MONITOR
CUE] controls can be monitored regardless of the positions of the
faders.
   It is also possible to mix and monitor the line-out sources.
The model comes with line-out connectors for monitoring so that
sound can be monitored not only with headphones but through the
speakers inside the booth.
The line-out source L and R levels as well as the monitor source
levels can be checked out on the 12-point, 3-column level meter.
An [AUX IN] connector is provided to enable a sampler, keyboard,
etc. to become part of the disc jockey scene.
Construction and materials
New 45 mm stroke faders with an excellent durability and smooth
operating touch have been developed for this model. The service
life of the channel faders and cross fader has been improved by a
quantum leap.
A spare channel fader and a spare cross fader have been provided
on the bottom panel just in case, and the faders themselves are
designed to enable easy replacement.
Lever switches are employed for the input selector controls (LINE,
PHONO) and, by providing adequate space around them, they can
also be used for operations involving transformer scratching.
