This section includes Digital DJ Media Controllers that enable you to spin and mix off your personal computer, iPod, internal or portable hardrive or even a USB card! This is the latest in DJ technology. With the proliferation of Digital Media Controllers on the market, many users are unsure as to what technology to go with. We always suggest learning to DJ using turntables as this is the most intuitive method of seamlessly mixing two tracks together (although many of these controllers allow you to you to control your digital files using regular turntables). If you have many digital files and not much accessability to record shops, using Digital Media Controllers is a viable option. One series of products employs time-coded records and/or cds played on standard turntables or DJ CD players so you dont lose the feel of spinning records or CD's. Popular products include Rane Serato, Stanton Final Scratch, Mixvibes, Numark Virtual Vinyl, PCDJ, etc.)
Another new set of products pairs a a Digital Media/MIDI Controllers with a DJ software program. The sound is then processed through a soundcard and pushed into your computer. Very recently, there has been a slew of these Controllers hitting the market, leaving you with options that best suit your needs. Many of these controllers now have soundcards and mixers built-in as well as jog-wheels which closely emulate the feel of spinning records or CDs. Popular products include M-Audio Conectiv and Torq Xponent, Numark Total Control and iCDX, Hercules, and Behringer BCD Series controllers). Additionally, many of these conrollers now include popular version of DJ software (often Lite versions) so there is often no need to purchase software. The software functions to assign most audio formats to each channel (or the same track for a juggle). The audio is then channeled back out through the soundcard to the mixer which hooks up to a home stereo, self-powered/active speakers or an amplifier/speaker combination. Many DJs like to choose best-of-breed hardware/software combinations - not necessarily all from the same company. Thanks to their low-cost factor, lightweight design, almost limitless song storage capacity and amazing functionalities combined with the proliferation and high accessability of digital music files, many say that this is the future of mixing and spinning. Others say there's nothing better sounding and dependable than analog records. We feel it really depends on individual preference, budget, and portability requirements. These new-age controllers are amongst our hottest selling products. In addition, there are now many mixers made by high-end and innovative companies such as ecler and Allen & Heath and the Rane TTM-57 SL that enable you to control these programs via Midi Control knobs built right into the mixer for quick control!

Need a laptop or computer for your programs? Please click here to check out our full line of Mac products. It is our experience and that of many fellow computer-DJs that Macs provide the most stable platform for programs like Final Scratch, Serato Scratch Live, Mixvibes, etc. PC's tend to crash more often - and that's not a good thing to happen in the middle of a performance...
