DJ Magazine, one of the leading music, dance, clubbing and DJ gear reviews magazines have got themselves in a spin with iRig MIX and DJ Rig. Reviewer and professional turntableist, DJ Alex Blanco, gets up close and personal. Here are some of his comments:
"IK Multimedia iRig MIX/DJ Rig is a radical fusion of hi tech iPad meets old school DJ technology."
"it sounds very good when turned up loud, and the gain pots and EQs have bags of boost to further tweak your sound and are crackle-free"
"It is a really clever and innovative system, and as far as we know it's the only iOS DJ app with analogue beat detection and syncing."
"DJs familiar with digital DJing software may now be asking how to sync the two devices if there is no digital connection? IKMultimedia have plumped for good old fashioned beat-detection from the audio signal ... it works pretty well and, interestingly, opens up more useful possibilities of syncing up the DJing software to another iOS app — say Rebirth or iElectribe — or any other audio source."
DJ Alex Blanco does not hold back with his final recommendation!:
"If you regularly perform small gigs where trick-mixing and scratching aren't vital, but still want a bit of hands-on fun, a mic input and the luxury of a physical bit of hardware to get your hands on, then prepare to be as excited as someone who's just discovered bread that you don't need to slice."
