Pioneer DMP 555

hey, I just came across this thing and it looks pretty sweet
I can't find anything on the US Pioneer site, so the link is to the german site: http://www.pioneer.de/default_mfs.asp?PRBE=J&COID=15

check it out:

the new thing: it plays SD Cards as well as CDs/CDRs/CDRWs! As I see it, there will be pretty cheap cards in a year or so whith a lot of memory...sounds interesting. You can play them just as the CD with pitch, cue-points, seamless loops, simulated TT stop and so on.
You can make a loop from the card, and the Player will sync the BPM with the CD and lets you put it on top of the CD output gives some new options....lots of other functions, of course. Dunno a price yet.
what do you think?

Hehe, old news

Anyway, I just dropped by to say Pioneer has a dedicated site for pro gear at http://www.pioneerprodj.com/
There's a pretty detailed info about this deck there, and I believe they will add the manual soon (manuals of all the pio gear can be found there).

But this thing is just too messy and uneeded.

I posted about this the other day, along with info on a new Pioneer mixer. This new CD player has potential but I think it needs some substantial changes before it will become as prolific as the other Pioneer CD players.

Supplement yes, overtake no.
