Key Adjust, Auto BPM Counter, MP3 Seamless Looping with B-Trim Edit, MP3 Hot Starts, MP3 File Search System, MP3 Frame Search, CUE Stutter and wider +/-24/50/100% pitch ranges for audio CD's are just a few of the enhancements.

Memo Points
With 1000 memo points on-board, the DN-D4500 can store your Loops and Hot Starts on any audio CD track and recall them at a later time when that track is cued in either CD drive.… read more

Cueing Accuracy and BPM Counter
Precision cueing to frame sound accuracy can be set quickly and easily using the inner 50mm jog wheel with the outer shuttle ring for user-adjustable quick jumps while scanning. The inner jog wheel also controls pitch bend, which is essential for synchronizing tracks for beat mixing - a DJ skill aided by the built-in automatic BPM counters.

Key Adjust and Shock-Proof Memory
The Key Adjust feature keeps vocals and music sounding true even when you adjust the speed of the track. With up to 100 seconds of anti-shock memory for MP3 and 20 seconds for audio CDs, your groove will not be interrupted by either sound or vibrations.

Relay Play with Adjustable Overlap
Background music no longer has to have silence between tracks. The unit can go straight into Play mode when it is powered up. Music can also be played alternately from two discs using Relay play, which will start the next track several seconds before the previous track finishes. read less

This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful.
I'm expecting to be satisfied 5 - 10+ years (all the DJ and studio equipment I have looks and works like as if I bought them yesterday, and I've had them for years now. If this product were ever lost or stolen, I would definitely replace with another DENON DND4500.
Sound
The sound is amazing - especially when you activate the BPM/Tempo change only, and you speed a song up or slow it down, it actually sounds better than a computers time comression/expansion. I've never heard anything with artafact-free tempo changing until I ran into the Denon DND4500 Dual CD Player.
Features
Every feature on this unit is HOT!
Quality
This product was made very, very well, and it can exceed your expectations for dependency - the unit is very reliable. In-fact, I still own a DN-2500 that they made way-back-when, and from that and other DENON units I have played on, almost every Dual CD Player DENON ever made in the rackmountable line is built to last.

Hell Yeah!!!
