I love a well done teaser. And this particular one not only teases hard, but engages the eyes and ears. Denon DJ are raising their game big time, and have invested serious resource into their product development and marketing. So what is 29 all about?
As is customary, I’ve broken this clip down all CSI style – frame by HD frame photoshopping, tweaking curves to try and pull out detail that they thought was hidden. But there’s nothing – not a button, light or fader other than what your brain can extrapolate from watching the video. Clearly my previous smart arse photosleuth skills have made video makers raise their game. Bugger.
But it doesn’t take a genius to work out what 29 is likely to be, especially if you trawl the DJnetz like many of us do. I have seen one in perhaps the most bizarre of circumstances, something that I can share with you at a later date. Don’t worry though, this isn’t some long winded month long teasefest that eventually lapses into boredom – all will become clear quite quickly.
So speculate away. And if you actually do know, don’t spoil it for everyone.
So are they revealing this on the 29th then? (rhetorical)
I guess from the platter lights that it won’t be motorised, and from the CD player style display that it won’t be a standalone multimedia player……
Agreed. Not motorized because of led indicators but a dual layer unit due to two different led colors. Similar to 1/2 of a ns6
Dual color LEDs doesn’t really mean dual layer… Look at the CDJs, dual color LEDs on the decks, depending if they are playing or not.
Looks like a standalone unit that has two cd players and a built-in-mixer.
This is an exceptionally well done teaser trailer… I like how the focus is on the platter/jog-wheel. IMHO, the platter/jog-wheel makes and breaks a controller or CDJ-like product.
Well done, Denon DJ. I’m intrigued.

Scweet teaser!
And as murphy would have it, I just bought a NS6 a few days ago!!!
You not only teased it, you made it mad! Nice!
A dual CD & MIDI controller maybe, cant wait!!!
My predictions: http://www.poweronplay.com/sc2900/
My guess is a spinning platter controller. There was a 37, then came the 39, and now the 29. Or so I hope! :)
I really hope what ever it is that they have beta tested it into the ground and back, so often do they end up with a fantastic product (probably the best out there) that is forever tainted by it’s original firmware.
This is DENON SC2900, native supported on Traktor 2 in HID mode
