Review: *** B-STOCK: Box opened. There are a few minor scuffs and scratches here and there and Traktor LE is not included but otherwise product is in excellent condition and perfect working order ***

With the Digital Jockey 2, Reloop gave Traktor DJs a controller that will make sound become truly tangible. The Reloop Digital Jockey 2 Interface Edition DJ controller comes with a hardware control that facilitates such an immediate access to the world's leading DJ software plus such a great handling of all functions that both components result in a perfect team up.

With its noble panel made of brushed aluminium the Digital Jockey 2 lies so well in the hand as never before. Its control panel is clearly arranged and is geared to all important Traktor PRO functions. The red illumination is very striking, white captions indicate the way to the second MIDI level. Together with the black chassis the Digital Jockey 2 also forms an optical unit with Native Instruments Traktor which is already included as the latest LE version.

DJs that have been working with CD players will feel at ease with the Reloop controller's second generation just as quickly as DJs that have been controlling Traktor via computer. The new, high-quality pitch faders are very delicate and do not lock at 0%.

The Digital Jockey 2's MIDI mapping is enormous. With the glistening white shift buttons a true double assignment of all MIDI commands becomes possible. It is possible to control up to 4 virtual decks simultaneously with the Digital Jockey 2 and Traktor.

Additionally the Digital Jockey 2 Interface Edition comes with an outstanding 4 channel sound card with 16bit/48 kHz that offers a super fast USB connection as well as external inputs and outputs. With the Digital Jockey's Interface Edition 2, it is possible to directly monitor the virtual mixing channel thanks to the headphones input; the sound system can also be directly connected by cable to the Interface Edition.

The touch-sensitive, 2-part jog wheels are an Interface Edition exclusive that facilitate a vinyl-like feeling when cueing, scratching, browsing and effect modulating. The adjustable knobs on the device's front side for the crossfader curve plus the microphone and headphones equalizers are further additional features of the Interface Edition.

Reloop are proud to present its first digital mixing controller designed especially for the Serato Terminal Mix 4.

By introducing the Terminal Mix 4, Reloop have broken new ground once again with this fully integrated 4-channel mixer offering a wealth of features, including 3-fold EQ with intelligent kill technique and filter modulation capabilities per channel. Any of the 4 channels can be easily assigned to the crossfader via the controls on the front panel, where you will also be able to adjust the crossfader curve.

In addition to the popular Trax Encoder, the master section is now equipped with 4 convenient management buttons which allow direct access to playlists, crates or further layout views without the need to touch your laptop. This means a desired track can be located and loaded instantly into any deck via the designated load buttons, a fader start function can also be activated if desired.

As a further highlight, Reloop have developed brand new ultra-flat aluminium jog platters which with an impressive XXL diameter of 15.5cm have also been enhanced with a non-slip vinyl-grip coating for even more control over your tracks. With a total of 3 modes (pitch bend/vinyl/quick search) it's possible to easily switch between pitch correcting, scratching, or browsing through tracks on the fly.

The entire transport section is fully equipped with rubberised buttons which offer a comfortable pressure point whilst also being extremely durable.

The performance section features an extensive 8 button layout which can be utilised over 2 separate layers for true versatility. On the first layer 4 hot cues can be fired off and 4 sample decks can be triggered simultaneously. Depending on the software used, other creative possibilities are available, for example the option of accessing hot cues/samples 5-8 on the second layer, or with future software updates this section can be enhanced even further with brand new performance modes (cut'n'slice) for live remixing.

The extensive FX section is equipped with 4 buttons, 3 rotary knobs, and 1 endless encoder to provide even more creative possibilities in the mix. The smart loop section also features 4 independent controls allowing users to quickly set beat-precise loops, adjust the size of the loops and even move the loops whilst in a live situation.

Reloop also listened to the requests by many DJs and for the first time has integrated a 14bit pitch fader with 100mm increments, allowing ultra-precise mixing and blending.

The audio section offers a vast array of connecting possibilities for your master PA (including balanced output jacks), a zone function and a DJ booth system.

Review: The SC SYSTEM 3 consists of 2 decks (SCS.3ds) and a mixer (SCS.3m) that have many of the same controls as a traditional two turntable and mixer setup, however they are way more powerful and advanced. At a fraction of the size and weight of a traditional setup and with minimal moving parts, the SC SYSTEM 3 is a great solution no matter if you are a seasoned veteran or a beginner DJ.

The SCS.3m ships with a new version of Native Instruments' Traktor LE that is based on the latest Traktor PRO software platform, allowing the SC SYSTEM 3 products to be used together to create a full DJ system with intuitive control over the robust software features introduced with Traktor LE. Using only the SCS.3m, SCS.3d, and Traktor LE, a complete DJ rig with performance control features that surpass the capabilities of traditional mixer/deck equipment can be setup anywhere in the world within minutes.

Native Instrument's Traktor LE software perfectly integrates with the SC SYSTEM 3. The SCS.3 controllers not only allow you to mix between 2 songs, but also allow you to manage your music collection, loop, effects and engage Traktor LE's synchronization engine to help automatically line up two songs without the years of practice required on a traditional vinyl setup.

Because of the tight interaction between the SCS.3 controllers and Traktor LE, everything that happens on screen stays in perfect harmony with the light feedback on the controllers, allowing you to mix in low light environments and focus on your performance with confidence.

The SCS.3 controllers can all be used separately, or together to give you an unparalleled MIDI control rig that allows you to plug and play anywhere in the world within minutes. With a built-in powered USB hub and magnetic connecting system, the SC SYSTEM 3 controllers can be easily connected to each other for a high tech version of a full traditional DJ setup without the weight, size and connectivity issues.

The SCS.3m features two channel strips for control of two channels of a software mixer at any one time. However, each channel strip can be switched to control an additional two channels for a total of four channels of control with the 3m, providing a scalable interface while remaining portable at the same time. When switching between decks the 3m will remember which control mode each deck was on (FX or EQ) and will automatically update the sliders to that channel's last settings.

The SCS.3d's layout and portability provide DJs with an unmatched level of performance and control. The StanTouch interface can be used for scratching, scrubbing, and navigating through digital audio. The tactile buttons, triggers, and virtual faders can also control samples, pitch, effects, cue and loop points, and other mappable functions. Multiple finger touches can even prompt quick kills on EQ's or transform effects on volume.

The built in powered 4-port USB hub can be used to connect additional SCS.3 products to the SCS.3m allowing a single USB cable to be connected to the computer. With 2 ports on the rear of the unit it's possible to connect devices very quickly for fast setups in mobile environments. 2 additional ports on the inside of the back panel of the SCS.3m allow cables to be routed from additional 3 series controllers or storage devices such as flash drives. With a power connection the USB hub ensures that devices receive enough power for complete stability in any performance environment.

Every SC SYSTEM 3 pack comes with the ability to unlock the LE version of Native Instruments' award winning Traktor PRO software.

Review: The VCI-380 is a 2-channel DJ controller with a built-in Digital DJ mixer, powerful and creative, opening the door to limitless possibilities of controllerism. Mix, scratch, cue, effect, sample, trigger, loop and slice. Every feature of the VCI-380 is optimized to enhance the DJs performance and take a new approach in manipulating music. Designed hand in hand with Serato, the VCI-380 is bundled with ITCH, providing an arsenal of musical craft tools with perfect integrity, straight out of the box.

Controllerism is the art and practice of using musical software controllers (e.g. MIDI, OSC, Joystick, etc) to build upon, mix, scratch, remix, effect, modify, or otherwise create music, usually by a Digital DJ or Controllerist. The term was coined by Moldover in 2007 and popularized by Ean Golden to describe the process while paying homage to and giving respect to the art of turntablsim.

The 2 x 8 banks of FSR trigger pads on the VCI-380 are jam packed with creative performance modes such as the slicer, roll, sampler, loop, hot cue and pad FX. With the given features you can trigger cue points, samples, loops, slice up beats, and shoot off Pad FX together. The pad FX creates amazing combinations to manipulate music in ways nobody else has before: holding each pad (aftertouch) will modify the FX parameter, along with triggering performance mode functions. The FX is an essential tool to spice up your performance; in addition to pad FX, each deck features classic FX controls.The Ribbon control on each deck alters the parameters of pad FX, swipes, holds and needle drops tracks.

The legendary jog wheels from the Vestax VCI series have stepped up in their game with an advanced structure and larger platters for extra stability and smoothness. The platters of the VCI-380 are highly responsive, transmitting MIDI signals with extreme accuracy. The LED needle point embedded in the jog wheel provides excellent visual monitoring, indicating the decks playback position. The torque of the jog wheels can be adjusted to your preference, and as like all VCI series controllers you can pitch bend the track by touching the sides of the jog wheels.

The stand alone mixer function of the VCI-380 has great capacity for adaptability. The 2 hybrid channels are capable of mixing external devices such as CD players, turntables and MP3 players, together with tracks and samples Serato ITCH is playing. Each channel has an RCA phono/line input for limitless connection options, and the crossfader and input faders curve can be adjusted like any DJ mixer. Mixes with the input source can be tweaked with trim, EQ and in addition, the FX knobs on each channel function as Hi-Pass filters, to add an extra touch to your performance.

The built in high quality 24bit/48 kHz audio interface based on technology developed with the critically acclaimed Vestax VCI-400, features BIT-Perfect audio powered by a studio grade asynchronous USB streaming system. This extremely advanced technology provides low latency, premium sound quality and outputs your mix, analog or digital, at its true clarity. Some say seeing is believing. For the VCI-380, listening is believing.

Firewire MIDI mixer control surface with soundcard for PC/Mac with 4 channel strips

Review: Stanton present the world's most advanced mix controller. Although the SCS.1m is in some ways a mixer, it's more appropriately called a mix controller. Designed in an intuitive DJ mixer format that should be instantly familiar to anyone who's ever stepped behind the decks, the SCS.1m features four channel strips with faders, EQ controls, and high-precision metering, as well as a responsive crossfader, and a straightforward Cue/Monitoring section. The surface layout has been carefully designed so that any experienced DJ can simply step up and begin basic mixing within seconds. The difference, of course, is that tweaking an EQ knob or channel fader, for example, is not actually adjusting analog audio it's controlling the corresponding EQ or level parameter in your DJ software.

The SCS.1m controls your DJ software and sends/receives audio to Mac or PC via its onboard, studio-quality FireWire connection. FireWire allows a simple, single-cable connection, with all the bandwidth required to handle just about any mixing and controlling task you're likely to need. It also ensures ultra-low latency (delay) of only 1.5ms and high sampling rates (sound quality) of up to 24bit/96 kHz. This translates into lightning-fast responsiveness and sound quality that's far beyond competing mix control products. Rotary Controls (aka Super Knobs): Beyond basic mixing and control, the SCS.1m makes a radical departure from traditional mixers via four rotary encoders (virtual knobs) with LED rings and corresponding LCD scribble strips. These fully assignable encoders can be mapped directly into functions in the DJ software while providing visual feedback of knob position, even in low-light settings. Underneath, the LCD scribble strips confirm the software parameter being adjusted by each encoder, without the need to check your laptop. Of course, common assignments for these encoders can be saved as presets for fast recall.

Auxiliary input for turntables and CD Players. Although designed primarily as a software control surface, the SC System provides DJs with the ability to connect a real turntable or CD player into their Macs or PCs via a switchable Aux input. This input is useful for mixing real world sources along with your software, and for sampling or archiving vinyl and other audio into your computer. Superior build quality unlike other DJ control surfaces, the SCS.1m Mix Controller and SCS.1d Deck offer truly professional, no-compromise build quality. Every knob, fader, LED and LCD is of utmost quality, and even the chassis is designed for years of real-world use in demanding live and studio environments. The world's premier mixer control surface for laptop DJs and remixers. Familiar 4-channel design with intuitive high-precision metering. Assignable Encoder section with 360- of LED feedback, LCD scribble strips for two-way communication with selected DJ software. Easy controller mapping into popular DJ and VJ software. Navigation section for remote browsing through playlists. Mic and Phono/Line input for sampling, archiving vinyl, and remixing. Built-in FireWire connections with full Mac and Windows compatibility. Perfect as a standalone mix controller, or in combination with SCS.1d deck. Balanced, studio-quality TRS output for mains; RCA booth output and 1/4" headphones output. Unique footswitch input enables hands-free control of software parameters.

Portable MIDI controller, with 11 sliders, 17 buttons, 2 level meters, 3 intelligent firmware control modes

Review: Meet the SCS.3m, the latest innovation in Stanton's award winning SC System MIDI controller line. The SCS.3m translates the DJ-friendly design philosophy of a traditional DJ mixer into a portable, easy-to-use control surface built with the acclaimed StanTouch touch sensitive technology introduced in its deck controller counterpart, the SCS.3d. The SCS.3m incorporates all of the functions of a 2 channel DJ mixer, plus a host of innovative new performance features made possible by Stanton's unique touch sensitive control surface. The touch sensitive sliders can be used to tweak EQs, allowing you to bring in different elements of a song during a mix, or instantly switch them to control fx parameters, all in one surface. The wide, touch-sensitive crossfader not only allows for seamless slow blends between decks, but is also able to detect (like the rest of the sliders) multiple finger presses, allowing for quick transform effects all in one control. The multicolour buttons can easily perform transport controls for starting and stopping playback, setting loops, doing EQ kills, or engaging effects without requiring a separate trigger controller. All of the visual indicators stay 100 in sync with applications supporting MIDI feedback, allowing for clear indication of the software settings and positions in low light situations.

Additionally, the unique touch sensitive surface provides a new level of durability, since there are no moving parts to wear or break. The SCS.3m can be used as a standalone controller for basic software mixing, but when paired with the SCS.3d deck controllers, it gives you an unparalleled MIDI control rig that allows you to plug and play anywhere in the world within minutes. With a built-in powered USB hub and magnetic connecting system, the SCS.3m can be easily connected to one or more SCS.3d controllers for a high tech version of a full traditional DJ setup, without the weight, size and connectivity issues. The SCS.3m features two channel strips for control of 2 x channels of a software mixer at any one time. However, each channel strip can be switched to control an additional two channels for a total of four channels of control with the SCS.3m, providing a scalable interface while remaining portable at the same time. When switching between decks the 3m will remember which control mode each deck was on (FX or EQ) and will automatically update the sliders to that channel's last settings. EQ/FX Control Modes The 4 touch sensitive sliders and 4 buttons in each channel strip can be switched to control either EQ or FX functions (or remapped for other on screen controls). This allows for 8 parameters and 8 buttons to be accessed within each channel (deck). When switching between control modes the sliders and button states will automatically update to reflect their correct settings. USB Hub: The built in powered 4-port USB hub can be used to connect additional SCS.3 products to the SCS.3m allowing a single USB cable to be connected to the computer. With 2 ports on the rear of the unit it's possible to connect devices very quickly for fast setups in mobile environments. 2 additional ports on the inside of the back panel of the SCS.3m allow cables to be routed from additional 3 series controllers or storage devices such as flash drives. With a power connection the USB hub ensures that devices receive enough power for complete stability in any performance environment.

Every SCS.3m comes with the ability to unlock the LE version of Native Instruments' award winning Traktor PRO software. One of the first true Traktor PRO LE controllers, the SCS.3m is specifically designed to incorporate full application feedback from Traktor, ensuring complete parity between hardware and software. iTunes integration, broad file compatibility, and an advanced tempo detection/synchronization engine enables you to easily browse your music collection, load a song, sync the decks for an automatic perfect beat match, and start mixing in no time, even without any DJ experience. For the more accomplished DJ, Traktor PRO LE also opens the door to advanced performance techniques such as dropping FX and looping for live remixing. The SCS.3m features 3 intelligent firmware control modes for use with different types of applications. Standard mapping into popular DJ software such as Traktor Pro, Deckadance, Ableton Live, Mixvibes or any other MIDI compatible software is achievable and easy via traditional MIDI learn. When doing MIDI learn the 3m will drive all its feedback to buttons and sliders automatically. When using software which supports MIDI feedback the 3m can also only send control information to the application and receive all of the control settings back from application. The SCS.3m will work in a completely flat state so every button and LED can be programmed towards for use with DaRouter and presets or applications which natively support the SCS.3m.

USB MIDI controller with 8 x 8 grid of backlit, multi-colour touch sensitive pads, designed for Ableton Live 8

Review: The Novation Launchpad is a unique controller for Ableton Live. Jointly designed by Novation and Ableton, the Launchpad is a 8 x 8 grid of backlit, multi-colour touch sensitive pads, purpose built for triggering and manipulating clips in Ableton Live. Thanks to multiple MIDI control layers, the touch sensitive grid can instantly be switched so each line of pads can be used as channel faders in Live's mixer. It also set-up for controlling pans, FX sends, track arming and soloing or muting clips, channels or scenes. Dedicated controls allow you to scroll around all your clips, with instant visual feedback of current settings. In addition, because it is completely customisable in terms of operation, each button on each layer can be assigned to whatever function you need. You can assign the bottom row of buttons as the crossfader, or even split the pad into a drum machine for creating beats and triggering samples in real time, mpc-style.

This extremely versatile controller comes with Novation Automap software, making it universally compatible with most major MIDI software applications and Vst's. Multiple units can be used in unison, with the ability to connect up to 3 Launchpads at a time. And each unit comes with a custom Launchpad version of Ableton Live software, with an additional 1GB of high quality samples courtesy of loopmasters. The Novation Launchpad controller is quite possibly the most innovative and functional USB/MIDI control device in its class.

Portable DJ controller + virtual DJ LE Lite

Review: DJs love to perform but it isn't always easy to set something up on a moment's notice. Most DJ software controllers are designed to save DJs from having to lug around crates of vinyl or CDs. Just grab your laptop loaded with your music library, bring your controller and you're off to the gig. However, even the smallest DJ controllers range from being luggable to requiring their own set of wheels. Numark has changed all that with DJ2GO. Now for the first time ever, DJs can throw their entire rig into a backpack and have room to spare.

In addition, you can load and assign tracks to either of the 2 included deck control sections without ever touching a mouse. Sync and headphone buttons allow you to instantly sync 2 tracks and monitor either deck section.

Included with the Numark DJ2GO is a special edition of Virtual DJ software, designed to mate perfectly with the capabilities of the controller, so you can pick up DJ2GO and literally start performing on the spot. Because it is MIDI-compliant, the Numark DJ2GO can be used easily with virtually any DJ software by simply re-mapping the controls in the applicable application. You need only to connect the included USB cable to your Mac or PC and install the software to be up and running.
