The Creative ZEN is a digital audio player particularly suited to tango DJing.
- solid state (no hard drive)
- playback of lossless audio (WAV, including metadata)
- large capacity (up to 32Gb - 1500 lossless or 4000 320kbps MP3 tracks)
- large display with white-on-dark lettering
- buttons (not wheel) with firm action (not touch-sensitive)
- play queue
- configurable menu
- alpha bar for rapid paged (scroll-free) navigation of lists
- user-programmable button
- on-device creation of named playlists
Issues
- Charge meter can show three pixels remaining when charge is almost at zero.
- There is no way to set to play just the currently selected track in a list - Play sets the entire list to play, starting at the current track.
- Workaround: On PC, configure a list entry (either a playlist or a Album/Artist/Genre) for each individual track.
- Shortcut button 'Add to selected' command issued when the alpha bar is selected falsely says "Shortcut not applicable here" and does not operate. And leaves the focus confused - cursor is on the item list but input operates the alpha bar.
- Updating the currently playlist currently in-view on the device from the PC causes the device to falsely say the playlist is empty. Reselecting the playlist shows the correct content.
- does not play any lossless compressed audio (but plays WAV)
