Multi Functional Touch Sensitive Jog Disc
The 71mm JOG Disc is constructed with an
ultra high-resolution pulse and touch sensor to
accurately reproduce the most subtle or swift
scratching movements made by the human
hand. Of course, the Jog Disc can be mapped to
perform other vital functions too such as, pitch
bending, scanning, file searching and dry/wet
control for effects.

Vibrant Tube Display w/ 2-line Character
Text Support
Another unique quality of the DN-HC4500 is its
informative & animated tube display. The display
offers two lines of character information to
quickly navigate through your files, crates, folders
and confirms you loaded the correct file without
having to look up at your monitor. A visual 32-
position Marker Point indicator follows your hand
movements at lighting speeds without drift.
Other indicators include Looping, Hot Starts,
BPM info, Elapsed/Remain Time, MP3/WAV file
types, and other useable indicators.

2 BU4500 Drive Support
The sold separately and optional BU4500 dual
CD/MP3 player allows DJ’s to continue playing
from their CD collection (whenever required) while
still controlling your favorite DJ software. The
BU4500 can also be seen and used as a “backup”
system without having to rewire a thing in the
case of computer failure. Just select the SOURCE
button on either deck to switch off over to CD
playback seamlessly. This clever combo system
makes the DN-HC4500 the most powerful and
flexible DJ hardware controller on the planet. In
addition, current DENON DN-D4500 / DN-D4000
owners are welcome to enjoy all these benefits by
purchasing the DN-HC4500 and upgrading your
system to be computer performance ready.
2 Internal 24-Bit Processing & USB Audio
Unlike most DJ midi controllers that are only USB
bus powered, the DN-HC4500 encompasses its
own internal power supply to achieve the highest
electrical specifications, resulting in best possible
performance. The DN-HC4500 features industry
leading Burr Brown
(a product of TI) 24 bit DAC
processing for superior output audio fidelity. USB
Audio interface includes 2-Channel Stereo output
pair, 44.1/48/96 kHz sampling ranges and low
latency ASIO / OSX Core Audio support.
