Denon DJ has released the motorized platter version of its flagship media player called the SC5000M Prime. 

This new deck has all of the features of the original SC5000 Prime—including the eight RGB backlit pads on the bottom to control the hot cues, samples, slicer, and loops—as well as a full color touch screen display (adding a direct drive motor), metal platter, and real piece of 7-inch vinyl for DJ’s who need that true turntable feel. 

Watch our full video review above, our unboxing video below, and a review summary to see if the SC5000M PRIME will make you #ChangeYourRider…
