NUMARK投出全新震撼彈,帶PAD跟FX的平價BATTLE DVS混音器!
要價499美金幾乎是S9跟72的1/4價錢,仔細看感覺其旋扭是來自AKAI AMX或自家控制器(手感差),這個自S9以來的熱門功能"效果器拉桿"是來自72(縮小版),PAD目前可以參考的是numark orbit,是擁有按鍵回饋感的pad,6個軟體效果器控制鍵,效果器+PAD+拉桿都是這個價位從未同時出現的功能,這點衝擊市場最多,很多人都可以消費的起。
其他部分都是NUMARK這幾年控制器的部件,CROSSFADER是第三方最好用的INNOFADER,輸入則省元件只有單一需要切換。整體看來如往常NUMARK簡約便宜工藝但也聰明的結合各家賣點的產品。聰明是是打到DVS的這邊,因S9跟72的高價門檻,而中價Z2不支持SERATO且停產多年,其他DVS混音器不是缺PAD就是缺FX,加上先鋒繼S9之後已不開發SERATO高端硬件,這個產品可謂是普及唱盤DJ的新星。
當然這個東西超值但的確是偏向個人家用品,習慣RANE工藝的DJ不會用,已習慣用8個PAD由奢入儉難,最後是稍微有點挑釁大概會嫌NUMARK普遍"長的醜""材料差""效果器不佳",不過這個能讓更多人投入玩唱盤可真是件美事一件,少了PAD可能會讓人專注在唱盤(也許不會),不喜歡面板旋扭推桿可以自己換彩色元件、面板貼紙,總的來說這台機器算有趣!新選擇不讓某廠獨占也是好的刺激。

刮碟DJ用類比混音器大展!
1975年從disco時期到hip hop誕生至2005年間(數位機材之前),各時代傳奇DJ愛用的類比式混音器,DMC比賽專用機,Stanton的focus fader與fader mixer,Vestax pmc05/06系列,X-MEN的歷史跟週邊,頂點的gemini到現在的RANE...等等以刷碟跟嘻哈DJ為主的器材內容。
Designed From Scratch: A History of the DJ Mixer, was an exploration of the evolution of DJ mixers from 1975 to 2005 from a hip hop perspective held on September 4, 2018 at Mode Studios in Portland, Oregon. In this exhibit there was everything from early disco-era/mobile DJ mixers used by pioneering hip hop DJs such as the GLi 3800 or Clubman Two, icons of the 80s like the Gemini MX-2200 or Numark 1150a made famous by Cash Money and Aladdin, and the bi-products of turntablist era of the 90s (i.e. Vestax 05 Pro, Melos PMX-2, and Rane 54 to name a few). There are also plenty of other rare and obscure mixers you may have used, owned, or just seen in media, or, well, never knew existed.
This exhibit was sponsored by Pabst Blue Ribbon Sound Society, and will continue to show as Designed from Scratch: A Hip Hop History of the DJ Mixer, 1975-2005, which will also be the title of a forthcoming coffee table-styled book exploring the stories behind these products as cultural artifacts.
Also included are needles, crossfaders (including a rare, original modded Focus Fader that changed the industry/culture), marketing materials, and other memorabilia that centers largely on the hip hop DJ. You will also find a pair of original Technics 1200 turntables that belonged to Bronx DJ, Disco King Mario, which he loaned to Afrika Bambaataa in 1976 for Bam’s first battle (against Mario) at New York Junior High School 123.
The main concept of the exhibit is that advancements in technology presented here reflect advancements in DJ technique. That is, mixers and products are a mirror of the culture and what happens in the culture becomes part of the technology. Thus, mixers are a sort of folk art in the sense that encoded into them are the ideas of DJs, both directly in research and development/branding, and through a cycle of DJs modding and undermining products to advance technique. Companies then adapt their products to cater to cultural innovation and market demands.
