Stanton's already great name is receiving an even bigger ego boost with their new slot loading CD mixer, the C314.

This machine has been given the 'no holes barred' treatment. The impressive list of functions include: A touch sensitive (adjustable to suit your personal preference in weight) jog wheel for scratching and beat juggling, MP3 compatibility (browse files and folders), control effects wheel, Vinyl emulation, 7 high quality beat synchronised BPM FX (filter, auto filter, echo, phase, flanger, transform & pan), Key lock (aka master tempo), Multi-purpose jog wheel for scratching, adjusting loops, controlling effects and more, Adjustable pitch +/- 8%, 16%, 25%, 100% and pitch bend, Onboard sampling with pattern sequencer plus four trigger buttons and cue memory, reliable anti-shock playback (10 sec) with auto cue and instant playback, easy to read Blue LCD display with visual marker for track position and an S/PDIF output.

This reads like the A to Z of what you'd want if you designed a machine yourself.

The Stanton C314 is a dream to play with and yet completely professional in build and operation.
