I hate it when technology tries to be cool. Gives me the shits. But you know what? No do you REALLY know what? This makes
complete sense to me. I can actually see DJs using this in the future.It took me a few years to get over people using laptops and CDs in clubs, but whatever. This however seems like the future. And yes, this is yet ANOTHER reason to purchase an iPad...
So this is a DJ iPad mixing app that the guys started designing back in 2009. As they say on their site, "We hope for mixr to become the first ever professional DJ application for iPad. With Mixr, causal mixing and professional mixing merge to become a new form of mixng your music. Features core functionality, cross-fading, equalizing, cue, drag & drop tracks, and full effects such as delays and auto filter. Mixr gives you a DJ experience unlike anything you've ever touched before. Mixrs turntables look and feel just like real the real thing. To mix your music, all you have to do is touch the vinyl records with your fingers. You can play it, stop it, run it backwards and even control the pitch and scratch. To manipulate the sound, simply rotate the vinyl with your fingers, it's that easy! Here's a quick list of the some things Mixr can do."
- Change the speed of the record by touch.
- Cue tracks, match beats with perfect precision and control.
- Live EQ and FXs.
- Custom intuitive library. Realistic 3D crate.
- Record your mixes.
There is more on this on their website. You can throw down your email to be notified of when the app is available.
Cool.
