DENON PRO: DN-C640 SLOT-IN NETWORKABLE CD PLAYER
The new DN-C640 from Denon Professional is, at the heart of it, a full featured,
rack-mounted network CD player. But note the word “Professional”
in the brand name. With a combination of flexible file formats, network control,
and comprehensive inputs and outputs, this machine takes the “CD player”
concept to new heights.
DENON PRO DN-C640: FEATURES |
- Reads CD-R/RW, DVD-R/RW, and DVD+R/RW
discs - For several years now, newer CD Players expanded
the length of continuous playback time without interruption by adding
the ability to play back compressed digital audio files off CD data
discs. One CD data disc could provide as much as 20 hours when playing
back low bit rate MP3 files. The Denon DN-C640 embraces this idea but
takes it a step further.
Not only can the Denon DN-C640 playback MP3 and WMA files from CD DATA
discs, but the Denon DN-C640 is also capable of decoding broadcast standard
MP2 and uncompressed digital PCM (WAV) files from those same discs.
In addition to reading all of those files from CD, the Denon DN-C640
also has the unmatched ability to read any of the above from any DATA
DVD. This not only expands the 20 hour playback time to almost 3 days
of continuous playback (999 files at 4 min. each), but also allows those
users who demand uncompressed audio quality the ability to playback
full 44.1kHz PCM recordings without being limited to the 80 minute CD-R.
- Plays Back Digital Audio Existing on
Other Network Devices - Not only can the Denon DN-C640
decode a host of compressed and uncompressed digital audio files from
CD or DVD data discs, but it now gives the end-user the unique ability
to stream any of those files from a server or computer, as long as it
is accessible via a network. Now, any corporate environment that records
and stores their meetings on a network HDD or computer can simply navigate
to that folder location from the front panel of the unit or by using
the on-board web browser, select a specific file, and play it into their
system. Any application from background music, to meeting recording
playback, to small radio stations not utilizing some sort of enterprise
software to manage their station will benefit greatly from this unique
feature.
- Controllability for Every Application
- The new Denon Professional DN-C640 comes with a host of control options,
suitable for every application and every installation.
- 25-pin Contact Closure (GPIO)
- Denon CD players have been used for years in the broadcast market
and the DN-C640 is no exception. A 25-pin GPIO port allows for easy
integration and full-featured usability in every broadcast studio or
station installation.
- 9-pin RS-232C Control
- The Denon DN-C640 easily integrates into any new or existing installation
using third-party serial control systems like Crestron® or AMX®.
- IR Control with included IR Remote Control
- Like most CD players, the Denon DN-C640 is controllable
by it’s included IR commander. Perfect for small installations
not using serial control solutions or Health and Fitness centers, the
IR control allows every feature from playback to the +/-12% pitch control
to be activated/adjusted.
- Internal WEB GUI for Control from any
Web-enabled Computer - It is becoming standard in our
industry that any network device be controllable via a web-enabled computer.
Because the machine has its own web server on-board, any computer on
the same network can call up and play audio files, build program playlists,
and have full transport control functionality over the Denon DN-C640.
