Numark DDS
$400.00
Released January, 2009
The Pros:Simple to operate, layout makes everything accessible right away. Consistent operation time after time, can always depend on the performance. Audio output is clean and distortion-free enough for professional shows.
The Cons:First time you load a large device into the library it can take awhile - fast after that. Works off of the hard drive ONLY, not designed to work with external audio live.
The Numark DDS is a digital audio track selector and player built to work without the use of external software. The design follows the traditional dual-deck interface, allowing individual tracks to be cued up and mixed using a large color display for navigation.

3 USB ports connect to the digital media, and are compatible with iPods, thumb drives, external hard drives, and CD or DVD players. Mixing can be done from two separate devices or with two tracks from the same iPod. Scratching works with MP3, WAV, and AAC files as well as CD audio, and Key Lock can be used to play with tempo and key independently. Beatkeeper technology manages beat detection, allowing for perfect beat mixing, seamless looping and stuttering effects. An included USB keyboard allows quick searching for individual tracks.
