Stanton C324 Tabletop CD/MP3 Player

Packing all of the benefits of our best-selling C314 plus an abundance of upgraded features, the new Stanton C324 is a must-have for any true CD DJ. This tabletop, slot-loading CD player is designed for MP3 DJs who want to scratch CDs like vinyl, and has everything needed for ultimate performace. With specialties such as MP3 playback with onboard file and folder browsing, onboard pattern and real-time sequencer for drum machine style performances, 7 onboard digital effects, and a sleek slot drive, Stanton has taken everything about the C324 to the next level... except the price tag.

Real-Time Sample/Loop Sequencing
The C324 has added real time trigger pads that offer real-time sample / loop sequencing. This means that trigger patterns can now be recorded in real time and looped instantaneously. Drum patterns and loops can be manually resequenced and then looped to bring a completely new twist to live DJ remixing. This functionality is usually only achieved on drum machines. Using the C324 sequences can be created in seconds compared to minutes using drum machines.

Beat Synchronized Samples and Loops
The C324 can record Loops and Samples, with the length determined by the Time setting. This new feature makes it easy to set up perfect seamless loops. The C324 also allows for the creation of beat synchronized loops based off of the current song's BPM. This means that a perfectly timed seamless loop can be set on-the-fly with one button press. Once a beat synchronized loop has been set it can be trimmed or expanded in real time by beat increment. By trimming the beat, a one bar loop can be turned into a 1/2 bar loop, 1/4 note or 1/8th note. Smaller loops can be expanded in the same fashion.

Slot-Loading Mechanism
The C324 has a slot loading CD mechanism with LED for quick loading of CDs into the unit in low light situations.
