Numark's exclusive Beatkeeper™ aids in visual beat matching so you can spend less time in headphones and more time creative the perfect party or event soundtrack. And speaking of making things easy for you, CDN88 MP3's Interlock function automatically beat matches the two decks for you for those times when you just need get to the next song.

And speaking of getting where you need to go, CDN88 MP3 saves up to 3,000 cue points in its memory!RUGGED, ROBUST, AND RELIABLE
What happens when the dance floor get jumping? CDs can skip. Not a problem with CDN88 MP3. From the company that introduced DJs to Anti-Shock™, CDN88 MP3 contains a massive 48-second buffer so you can crank those subs with confidence that music will keep pumping. CDN88 MP3 is housed in a super-rigid metal extrusion so it's ready for the road. When you get to the gig and pop the cover, you won't have to worry about your CD player. To further expand CDN88 MP3's durability, its drive unit features a tray-loading system. This type of media rack is substantially more professional than slot-loading units because dirt and grime on the drive slots can degrade your CDs' performance as they are dragged across. Since mobile DJs can find themselves in less-than-ideal light conditions, CDN88 MP3 has transport-bay illumination, and its rubber buttons give you slip-proof security. CDN88 MP3 is built for years of reliable performance. To further extend its lifespan, it contains a laser-saving sleep mode.EVEN MORE

You can easily program a sequence of tracks, and its adjustable startup and braking speeds help you fine-tune your performance. If you have a compatible Numark mixer, you can even remotely start playback with CDN88 MP3's fader start and relay function.

Comments about Numark CDN-88 MP3 Profesional Dual CD/MP3 Player:
I believe this is one of the best rack CD players yet. I have been the DJ business for a while now and I have tried my share of dual rack CD Players and I feel that Numark has got this right. The effects our really good and the BPM counters are very accurate. However, you have watch out when you use the beat sync BPM feature. The Master Disc can really alter the pitch of the slave deck if the BPM are 10bpms out or more. Listen in que first before you play out loud while mixing.

Comments about Numark CDN-88 MP3 Profesional Dual CD/MP3 Player:
I couldn't wait to try this unit, I mean MP3, Scratching, effects and a beatkeeper visual. Wow. Well, it stops there. The left side worked great! It read all MP3 CD brands and found the songs quickly. The right side, it seemed to get stuck trying to read, especially if you changed the song. You'd have to eject the MP3CD again and hope it reads the files. The one CD that works great is a standard CD. You will have no problems with that. MP3 CDs, good luck, it seems to have a mind of its own. The effects were so smooth and fun though, I think the problem is whatever MP3 technology their using, its cheap. If they re-release this and fix the problem, this would be a great unit. Too bad there aren't enough reviewers of this out there, since small table CD unit are what every uses now and rack mount is not as common.
Pros

CD players have great features and the design is very nice:) The effects sound nice and the buttons on the unit are very durable. Loops and cues are also very easy to play with. I would recommend these cd players for mobile gigs or small club, more for beginner and intermediate DJs.
