American Audio launched no fewer than four new MP3 players, including the Velocity twin MP3 player with interactive jog wheel. The machine, which plays MP3s and CDs, boasts advanced cueing to the frame (not the second), digital scratching, nine onboard effects, digital BPM counter and tempo lock.

Also launched were the MCD range of MP3/CD players - the MCD-110 single deck, MC-510 dual deck with separate controller giving pitch control, fader start and relay play and the MCD-810 at the top of the range. Also new was the CDI-500, a single deck but with many of the features already mentioned plus the addition of a tap button for manual BPM entry, reverse play and storage of up to 1500 cue points.
