This is a repost of a repost of a post lol.
This is a copy of what I posted on my site (www.jymix.com) about the Denon DJ MC3000. It was originally posted by JJ over at the Denon DJ Forums, hence the double quotes.

This is a post made by JJ on the Denon DJ Forums site, and it sums up the MC3000 very well. so I thought I would post it.

Here are some of the things that caught my eye on the MC3000. Remember, it's probably cost effective... so some features didn't make it. It's a perfect controller when you want to mix on the go (trip).

Removed
• Was the "DN" dropped in the name? If so, why?
• Dedicated Fast Search buttons are gone. It's now Shift + -/+. I constantly use both Pitch Bend Buttons and Fast Search for Beat Jumps.
• No Matrix (You can pull off some interesting effects with the same audio on 2 different channels. Especially with dedicated Filters)
• No Echo On
• No Post
• No XLR out (A HUGE Minus for me)
• No XLR IN for MIC
• No Full 3-Band EQ for MIC
• Only 1 Mic input
• No VINYL input or Ground
• No X Fader Contour
• No Channel assigned to cross fade
• No Booth Send
• No Stereo/Mono Switch
• No Restart Mode

Added
• Dedicated FILTER Knob above the up-faders. A first for Denon. I love it!
• Dedicated Toggle Jog/Scratch button. It's back! I hate using Shift + << to toggle.
• Pitch Slider Mirrored (A first for Denon)
• Dedicated Buttons for A to C and B to D for Up-Fader and EQ
• Dedicated Buttons for A to C and B to D for everything else
• Two Knobs on the right. One Level Knob to control the Sampler or Channel Volume? If so, very nice.

The "DN" from the name was dropped because Denon DJ is now it's own entity, and not blanketed under the "Denon" brand of hi-fi audio/home theater systems. Therefore they don't need to model the DN name anymore, now they can just use the model number.
Most of us never use the DN before it anyway, we just say "S3700" or simply "6000" when referring to their products lol

Why? If you don't mind me asking.
What about this unit steers you towards it, rather than the 6000?

For me, I LOVE where the pitch sliders are, and I love the dedicated filter knobs below the EQ's. There is A LOT that I do NOT like about the unit though.
So, what are your reasons for choosing this over the 6000?
 
The MC3000 isn't even done with production yet, they announce it publicly Nov 15th (or 18th?), so there is no way it has been released in russia. As for the 3900, this is the first I am hearing of it, but then again I haven't asked Silvio (the head of Denon DJ) about it, only the 3000. I will ask about a 3900 model and see what info he can give me.
