The Hercules DJ Control AIR is a 2-deck DJ controller with 2 pressure sensitive jog wheels, 8 velocity sensitive pads and the exclusive AIR contact-less control module for complete control over mix, sync and effects. Touch sensitive jog wheels provide intuitive switching between scratch, pitch bend and browsing within tracks. The 8 velocity sensitive pads control the sampler, loops and effects. Pads can be set as on/off or gradual controls and the inner backlight shows pad activation.

The Hercules AIR control is a contact-less sensor that lets you control features with a wave of your hand and works under all lighting conditions. It features on on-board sound card with a 1/8" (3.5mm) stereo mini jack for the main output and a 1/4" stereo headphone jack for cue/preview.

The DJ Control AIR is the first DJ controller for computers featuring touch and air control AIR or adjustment by infraRed is a totally new control for computer DJ mixing consoles. The infrared proximity sensor built into the unit lets DJs control their choice of function (volume level, effects, etc.) without touching the controller, simply by moving their outstretched hand above the sensor. It's like there's magic in the air when performing a set. The AIR control functions regardless of the ambient lighting, allowing users to modulate a software setting quickly and intuitively no matter where they are entertaining.

Thanks to its 2 pressure-detecting jog wheels, the DJ Control AIR is perfect for scratching. The jog wheels, each 4" in diameter, detect the pressure exerted by the user's hand. As a result, the feeling when scratching is as natural as when scratching on a vinyl record or a CD turntable, ideal for learning and perfecting scratch techniques, just like on professional DJ hardware. The jog wheels also allow for easy control of the pitch bend function, as well as browsing through playlists.

In the style of celebrity DJs, Hercules have included 2 sets of 4 progressive pads for users looking to control sounds with a minimum of gestures. These pads transmit a command and its velocity, to control loops, samples or effects. Just tap your finger on a pad to play an effect, for example: the pad lights up when touched, and transmits not only the on/off command, but a gradual command as well. This lets the user easily vary the attack of a sound sample, or its volume, or modulate the amplitude of an effect. The backlit pads, along with the lighting on the other controls, allow for easy viewing even in low-light or dark conditions.

Taking a great leap forward in the world of mixing, Hercules have created an intuitive ensemble of controls on a unique mobile control surface. These controls have typically been only available to seasoned musicians via multiple controllers, each of which is programmable and/or dedicated to a specific function. The DJ Control AIR also features built-in audio outputs.
