PDJ Portable Disc Jockey is a complete DJ system that fits in your pocket, we go hands-on (video)

We will forgive the nice people behind the DPJ when they say that the first fully autonomous mobile DJ set-up. But that does not mean that there is nothing new in this - in fact, there are many. The DPJ is a rectangular plate of creative optimism refreshing. At each end is a touch screen that displays a virtual deck, and in the center there is a small section of mixing and FX. Therefore, the DPJ is already familiar in the configuration for all the DJ picks (something that the coach can not argue with its own interface). The mixer section rotary volume effects and additional features (see below). Most importantly, however, is integrated into the audio interface which means you can control the headphone mix before releasing them into the world. Which distinguishes it from almost all mobile applications out there that in the best case, requires the use of an audio splitter (at the expense of sound). Of course, you need some music to play, and there are 2 GB of internal memory that allows you to do just that. If that is not enough, or if you want to upload your latest jams immediately, there is a SD card slot that allows you to do just that (up to 32GB). Beyond the helmet, there is an output line for connection to an audio system, and an input line and an external microphone to add audio to the whole. The brochure says it offers 12 hours of battery too - mini USB rechargeable. On the software side, both decks respond to touch and control buttons (for cue / play / pause). Besides the virtual deck, there sample and player screens at once. We left the DPJ NAMM legs here, so we broke past fade impressions.
