Mixers

In my latest DIY Video, I'm showing the masses how they can install a Traktor/Serato DVS soundcard inside of your favorite mixer for a nicely updated and compact setup. Some new mixers on the market today come with a DVS soundcard already installed (Traktor Z2, Pioneer DJM-T1, Rane Sixty-One) so that the user only has to connect their CD or vinyl timecode decks directly into the RCA inputs for a plug-and-play solution. I installed a Traktor A4 inside of the Korg KM-202 & a Traktor A6 inside of the Vestax PMC-05ProIV. Check out the writeup & video inside to see how it's done.

Turntables

Now that the era of the digital DJ is in full effect, every manufacturer is coming out with new and revolutionary MIDI controllers so that DJ's can use their computer software to do all sorts of things on a pair of decks that wouldn't have been possible only 10 short years ago. Novation steps in with their new Dicer MIDI deck controller that will allow an analog pair of turntables to interact with a DJ software like never before...

The Novation Launchpad S was announced earlier this month as the successor MIDI controller to the original Novation Launchpad which allows DJ's and Performers to control Ableton Live or any other performance with great precision and ease. The new Novation Launchpad S has 64 Tri-Colored Pads, brighter LED's, and a faster refresh rate than the original and it also works nicely with the iPad. The Lauchpad S also comes bundled with a version of Ableton Live so that users can start performing and creating music right out of the box. Check out the press release & Video after the jump.

Review is coming soon, but check out our unboxing & first impressions video after the jump.

DJ Controllers

Novation, the creators of the popular Dicer Media Controllers, has now thrown its hat into the all-in-one controller market by introducing the Novation Twitch at this year's Musikmesse 2011. This new controller comes bundled with Serato Itch and is noticeably lacking something that all the other controllers have. They've created a controller WITHOUT the use of jog wheels or platters! But they do some cool things with touchstrips that will still have DJ's grinning from ear to ear. More inside.
