Numark and Algoriddm have just teamed up to give the iDJ Live controller a seamless integration with the djay app for iPad, iPhone, or the iPod touch. The djay app provides DJ's with a system that allows users to mix and scratch directly from their iTunes Library. This super-compact controller system can now also be powered directly from the i-device itself, meaning that the user no longer needs a power cable to operate when using the djay app. This is the first midi controller device that allows people to DJ without a laptop or other computer. Now that's what I call portable! Details and links inside...
