A few months ago, we brought you the full video review of the Denon DN-MC6000 four-deck Digital DJ Controller and now Denon DJ has unveiled the new compact version of their controller called the MC3000. The Denon DJ MC3000 looks and feels exactly like the DN-MC6000 using the same all-steel chassis and high-resolution jog wheels, but it is in an even more compact body since there are a few less controls and visible channels to worry about. The MC3000 still works as a four-deck controller even though only two are visible at a time. Check the full press release and pricing information after the jump.
