[What is PICratchBOX?]

MIDI is everywhere in the DJ scene right now, but is on the whole generally confined to all in one DJ systems, mixers or button laden boxes. But this doesn't always work for everyone, so the desire to create more targeted devices becomes necessary. And this is exactly what the tkrworks PICratchBOX is all about - mixer meets pads in a highly focussed small format controller. We've got some exclusive info, not seen anywhere else.

Like so many products with a potentially small market, the economies of scale simply do not apply, thus tkrworks is a tiny team dedicated to providing you with a unit that adopts a turntablist friendly narrow format, with buttons right in the important workspace area.

A quick demo:

PrB quick demo by tatsuki*

Basically, it's a small mixer style controller. No audio interface, but all hand built to ensure quality. This also includes Infinium faders throughout. But it's under the hood where the tech magic happens. As well as supporting MIDI, it also runs with OSC - a MIDI-like protocol that apparently offers far more flexibility. Not really my thing to talk knowledgeably about, but I'm sure Jared Helfer will come along and fill in the gaps if necessary.

Anyway, Tatsuki from the tkrworks team provided me with this exclusive information, which hopefully will wet your appetite for more:



What is PICratchBOX?

PICratchBOX is a USB powered DJ / MIDI / OSC controller
with 24 pads and Infinium faders installed on both X fader and Volume faders.

Currently only supports Traktor Scratch Pro / Pro 2 when used as USB /MIDI mixer.

OR

If you are familiar with Max/MSP, Max for Live or Reaktor using Open Sound Control protocol then, PICratchBOX would be a perfect device for you.

Why PICratchBOX?

Majority of hardware DVS-USB controllers on the market right now are huge and not travel friendly at all. And most of the time, you need to step away from your mixer in order to reach your controllers.

We also know some venues got a limited space for all the extra gears you have. So we have combined with pad controller and 2ch mixer in one. So you can really focus on what you do without walking around to reach your controllers. It's also really nice to have volume faders and 8 pads next to each other therefore you can do fader + pad actions at the same time. (This is where I was really excited about!!)

And of course for the programming heads, we will be releasing OSC firmware (will be available on the same day we release PICratchBOX) which includes all the related informations with manual. OSC is more flexible than MIDI. So we strongly believe that people can come up with some crazy ideas using PICratchBOX.

And of course, most importantly we wanted to keep the product design as simple/small as possible.

What do you need when using PICratchBOX and Traktor Scratch.

NI Traktor Scratch Pro or Pro2.
NI Traktor AUDIO 6 or 10 (we also tested with AUDIO4 DJ and it works.)
NI Traktor vinyl
TKR fader curve adjustment program. (will also be downloadable from TKR site.)

At this point, you might have few questions like these below. here's the answers.

Only for Traktor Scratch? No SERATO?

Yes, only Traktor Scratch, considering SERATO versions but not right now.

Why no sound card?

Most people already have Audio Interfaces.

Why no headphone inputs?

We take advantage of using headphone inputs on the Audio Interface.

Why no VU meters?

We take advantage of using Autogain on Traktor Scratch. There is VU meter on Traktor Scratch so we didn't bother having it on the top panel.

I can only see USB connected in the demo clip. how do you connect PICratchBOX?

Here's how. It's dead simple.



As we all know that you can do pretty much everything with a Traktor's MIDI mapping functions. This is what we have come up with for my quick demo.

To break down these MIDI mapping. 4x4 pads has 4 layers, mainly assigned with effects and deck controls.



For the 2x4 pads, they are mapped with cue points. 2x4 pads has 2 layers so. Layer 1 for cue points 1 to 4 and layer 2 for cue points 5 to 8. Just by pressing either Shift A or B, you can quickly switch the layers for each channels.



X-fader and Volume fader curves can be changed using our fader curve adjustment program.



Real vinyl record can be used by changing your Deck setting to Live Input.
You can have Traktor effect running on the real vinyl record.



Release dates / Price

Release date TBC. hopefully in December 2011 Price will be 49800 Yen

Limited amount will be released may be 20 at a time. May be every few month.
We are small company and there is only 1 person doing all the fabrications one by one and considering having 3 Infinium faders built in... we think it's very good price.


As a rough conversion, that's £413/€475/$649 - not too bad for a hand made niche product at all, especially given the use of Infinium faders, and the versatility of having MIDI and OSC in one box.

Now I know that some will complain about the lack of audio interface. But to use this with Scratch Live or Traktor Scratch, you have to use dedicated interfaces anyway. So adding one inside to cater for the smaller market would only add to the cost.

This is nothing new of course - all sorts of mixers have been MIDI mappable, from the Vestax 05ProIV right up to the 4MIDILoop. But this is the first time that the most basic of mixer functions have been combined with a faceplate full of buttons in one highly compelling product. As nobody seems to be in a hurry to put out a turntable with buttons, it makes sense to add them to a mixer, especially as it's likely to sell considerably more than turntables ever would these days.

For some, pure controllerism is a difficult thing to enjoy, as It does seem to be more about hitting buttons and twisting rotary encoders rather than DJing. What the PICratchBOX does is merge the old with the new, in a product which for me provides just enough controllerism and turntablism to keep most people happy.

Hopefully I'll have more soon, and perhaps can even persuade trkworks to let us have a unit to test out.

[djay for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch enhanced for iOS 5]

The last few days have been all about iOS5, and in my case, donning my time served Apple tech support hat and updating the numerous devices scattered around skratchworx HQ. So it comes as no surprise that the Apple-centric guys over at algoriddim have been very busy too. So to compliment all the clever things that iOS5 brings, the various flavours of djay for iOS have been updated accordingly.


djay for iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch enhanced for iOS 5


October 13, 2011

We just released djay 1.4 for iPad, djay 1.2 for iPhone, as well as djay – David Guetta Edition 1.1. This is a cutting-edge update that takes full advantage of the brand-new iOS 5 and brings you the feature you have been waiting for: Audio FX! Check out a  video of the Audio FX in action.
Feature highlights include:
Manual FX: Flanger, Phaser, Echo, Gate, Bit Crusher, Filter (High Pass, Low Pass)
Instant FX: Absorb, Drift, Sway, Crush, Punch, Twist
2D FX Pad
iOS 5 iCloud integration: backup and sync your song settings such as cue points, edited BPM, etc. over the air, across all of your iOS devices running djay
iOS 5 enhanced AirPlay integration
iOS 5 lock screen integration: displays currently playing song info including artwork
Audio Copy & Paste: load sounds from other music apps onto the turntables
Load recordings onto turntables
Sort library by BPM

You can get the free update in the App Store right on your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch or via iTunes.
We're looking forward to your continued feedback via the djay Facebook page or  @algoriddim on Twitter. 
Enjoy!

Enjoy? Yes I did. I'm not so bothered about the cloud features, but the new effects are nice to play with.

So all that's left are Siri commands. I wonder if we'll be able to load tracks just by telling the iPhone to do it? Will we even have to touch the phone at all? Is touch tech dead thanks to Apple and Siri? I doubt it, but knowing Apple, Siri is quite possibly the start of something else. I can imagine discreet voice commands being spoken into an iPad or iPhone to fulfil particular functions while your attention is on your music.

But what of djay for Mac? Algoriddim haven't forgotten - far from it. In the dying embers of The BPM Show, I had an all too brief glimpse of the next incarnation. And all I can say is that you should be happy with how things are shaping up.

[DV2 3000 System: 1 x DV2 USB + 2 x Radius 3000]

This just in... after extensive field testing, the popular 4 channel misconception has been disproved, as it seems that you do only need 2 channels to mix 2 tracks together. And American Audio are leaping all over this new found industry science in the shape of the DV2 USB mixer.

Yes indeedy - let it be heard far and wide that 2 channels really is enough for most DJs out there, especially when you get a full audio interface, USB inputs, full crossfader controls and MIDI mapping. American Audio have a solid rep for budget 2 channel mixers, and the DV2 looks to continue building on that solid foundation.

Here's the spec:
2 Phono, 2 Lines, 2 Aux & 1 Microphone input
Balanced Outputs
Midi Input to control "Midi Learn" software
Built-in 4x4 Sound Card
Fader "Q" Start
Long-life Optical Fader (Crossfader)
Cross Fader curve knob (short to long crossfade) with reverse crossfade button
Independent curve for channals 1 & 2 (short to long curve) with reverse button
3-Band Rotary EQ with push Kills
DJ Mic with Volume + 2-Band EQ (Treble & Bass)
Talkover button (-15dB)
Multi-voltage operation: AC 100V~240V 50/60Hz- IEC socket
Power Draw: 9W max
Dimensions (LxWxH): 12.25"x10"x 3.25" / 320.6x254x100.3mm
Weight: 7 lbs. / 2.77 kg.

And here are the words:
KERKRADE, THE NETHERLANDS – (For Immediate Release) – The new DV2 USB from American Audio is a "mixer" in more ways than one.  This groundbreaking 2-channel pre-amp DJ mixer features a built-in 4x4 Sound Card and MIDI Output, allowing you to play and mix music from any DJ software, yet still keep hands-on hardware control over faders, cueing, scratching and other effects.  You can also use the DV2 USB as a mixer for analog inputs such as CDs or even vinyl turntables -- which means this versatile, compact unit will "mix" with whatever way you choose to DJ!

Regardless of the type of input you use – MIDI or analog -- the DV2 USB makes it easy to give a stellar DJ performance.  The affordable mixer was designed by DJs for DJs with all the controls and features laid out intuitively, bringing the familiar feel and touch of DJ-ing to today's digital world.

Equipped with 2 Photo, 2 Lines, 2 Auxiliary Inputs and 1 Mic Input, the DV2 USB offers a full range of professional features such as: Balanced Outputs, Fader Q Start, 3-Band Rotary EQ with Kills, and Channel Faders with adjustable curve.  Its high-quality Optical Crossfader is reversible and has an extremely long life – it was tested for over 1 million crossfades and never quit working! DJs and emcees will also appreciate the DV2 USB's Talkover Button, which reduces volume by 15 decibels, and the DJ Mic input, which has Volume + 2-Band EQ (Treble & Bass).

The DV2 USB's light weight (7 lbs./2.77 kg.) and trim size (12.25"L x 10"W x 3.25"H/ 320.6 x 254 x 100.3mm) make it ideal for mobile use.  It's also priced well within the range of DJs and mobile entertainers.

"The DV2 USB is one of the most compact and affordable DJ mixers for controlling both analog and MIDI inputs," said Dirk Kast, General Manager for American Audio Europe. "Because a Sound Card is built right into it, you can start mixing right out of the box, with no extra equipment required.

"Plus, it's so versatile – you can use it with anything from DJ software to a laptop to CD players to turntables," Freret added.  "If you want the ultimate in music media options, hook up the DV2 USB with a couple of American Audio's Radius 3000 CD/MP3 players, which also have multiple types of inputs.  With this type of system, the possibilities for controlling and playing music are almost limitless."


DV2 3000 System: 1 x DV2 USB + 2 x Radius 3000


Because the DV2 USB mixer and Radius 3000 media player work so well together, American Audio is now offering them bundled together as a complete system.  The DV2-3000 System includes: 1x DV2 USB, 2x Radius 3000, 1x hard case and all required component cables.

Like the DV2 USB, the Radius 3000 was designed for the multitude of ways that DJ-ing is being done today.  It is a professional CD/MP3/WAV player with MIDI capabilities, so it can control DJ software.  For even more playing options, it also has SD Card and USB inputs.

This versatility makes the DV2 3000 System the perfect combo for today's mobile entertainers, who may often "DJ" differently at different types of gigs or situations.  "With the multiple inputs on the Radius 3000, you're covered no matter what the situation," said Freret.  "Say you arrive at a gig and don't have your laptop or even a CD ready.  You can pop in a USB stick and control that with the Radius 3000.  Or if you have music on an SD Card, you can use that.  You can download your DJ software into the Radius 3000 and then scratch and add effects using the software. Whatever the situation calls for, the DV2 USB/Radius 3000 combo is a great solution for analog or MIDI playback and mixing."

Like the DV2 USB, the Radius 3000 offers premium professional features that will enhance DJ performances, such as Advanced Track Search, Seamless Loop, Tempo Lock, Instant Start, AntiShock Memory (10 seconds), Digital BPM Counter, and Digital Output (S/PDIF).  It includes a 6-inch Jog Wheel and 9 on-board FX: Scratch, Filter, Echo, Trans, Skid, Phase, Flanger, Pan and Bop.  There are 2 Scratching modes: Digital Scratch and Beat Juggle.

The Radius 3000 is also designed for easy portability, measuring 10.5"L x 14"W x 4.25"H/265 x 356 x 106mm, and weighing 8 lbs./ 3.6 kg.

DJ Dummy cuts it up on Traktor Kontrol S2

You can hardly fail to notice that Native Instruments' Kontrol S2 is upon us. It's in the shops now, and to show that it's not just some me too controller, they commissioned personal fave DJ Dummy to knock out a short set to show off its abilities.

There's a perception that MIDI controllers can't handle Hip Hop, as if the only things that can play such music are turntables. Well DJ Dummy proves that to be totally wrong in this clip. He shows that it's more than just the gear, and delivers stage presence and swagger, as well solid technique - all because he's a great DJ and nothing to do with the gear. How many of you throw decks and mixers into a car every week trying to keep it real, when clearly you could be using gear like this?

In shops now, the Kontrol S2 will cost £499/$599/€579. Review coming soon.

Director's Cut: Jamie Lidell performing with iMaschine

Oh dear. I have just witnessed the collapse of productivity for ever. Or is the rebirth of creativity? As you'll know, I was somewhat enamoured with Maschine when it came out. And up to now, I've been thankful that I've never had a unit to lure me away from my work. But I believe I've just found the perfect partner for my new iPhone. Behold the majesty of iMaschine courtesy of Jamie Lidell.

This one-take clip is totally inspiring to a dabbling music creator like myself. I'll have the tools to create something wherever I am, and will finally have solid use for the expensive paperweight that is the iPhone - other than Fragger of course.

Like many DJs, I've dabbled in music making, and did almost complete an Acid House album as well as a solid selection of old school Hip Hop beats. All gone now of course, but iMaschine could be the very thing to get me making music again.

As I'll be making an increasing amount of videos in the future, I need music to go with them, and borrowing other people's tracks is kind of frowned upon for some reason, and generally incurs the wrath of the Youtube police. At least if I'm using my own backing tracks, I won't be looking over my online shoulder all the time.

Will it be good enough to use without a full blown Maschine? For my purposes (making beats rather than subjecting you to my singing voice), I suspect it will. But the big question is this - dare I install it? Dangerous move if it's as good as it looks. This will however be a classic case of technology not providing skills or creativity.

It's in the iTunes store now for $4.99/€3.99/£2.99. And... ooops... I downloaded it. There goes the weekend.

Seringkali dalam melakukan aktifitas berbau komputer, meja kerja kita acapkali dipenuhi beberapa perangkat pendukung PC, semisal keyboard atau mouse. Terkadang ingin kita merasa lebih nyaman, dengan kondisi meja yang bersih dari beberapa perlengkapan tersebut. Terlebih dari kabel-kabel yang menjuntai tak karuan, yang semakin membuat meja kerja tak enak dilihat.

Nah, kini mulai ada solusi baru, yang setidaknya bisa mengurangi hal-hal tak nyaman tersebut. Salah satunya dengan hadirnya Bluetooth laser virtual keyboard, dimana selain mampu menciptakan dinamisme baru dalam melakukan aktivitas komputerisasi juga mengefisiensikan meja menjadi lebih bersih. Termasuk pula saat tak ada aktifitas.

Piranti ini beberapa waktu lalu sempat dikomersilkan pada beberapa film bernuansa futuristik seperti "space 1999", "startrek next generation". Dan, memang terkesan bahwa perangkat ini bakal cocok menghiasi meja kerja kita, sebagai keyboard masa depan.

Bluetooth laser virtual keyboard dilego dengan harga 150 US dollar (Rp 1,36 juta-an). Banderol tersebut relatif masuk akal, yang mana selain memberikan edukasi teknologi virtual, komposisi bentuknya pun ringkas hingga hemat ruang. Perlu diketahui, perangkat ini memiliki dimensi tergolong mungil, tak lebih dari sebuah ponsel.
