M-Audio Torq Conectiv with Control Vinyl and CDs

DJ Performance/Production system with 4 x 4 USB audio interface, control vinyl and CDs, and software.




Conectiv, developed by M-Audio's SynchroScience
division, is the world's first bus-powered 4 x 4 USB audio interface
designed for DJs who perform and produce tracks with a laptop. Together,
Conectiv and the included Torq software form the ultimate DJ
tool—high-fidelity audio, all the right kinds of I/O (including dual
phono preamps), and the ability to mix, beat-match and cue digital files
with ease. Use them as a completely digital solution and leave the
heavy stacks of vinyl or bulky wallets of CDs at home—or process your
vinyl and CDs on the fly. You can even create a hybrid digital/vinyl DJ
rig by using Conectiv and Torq with specially encoded control vinyl
discs or CDs. Torq supports popular formats such as MP3, WAV, WMA and
AAC files and is configured to automatically work with Conectiv—no messy
set-ups. And unlike most digital DJ systems, Conectiv works with other
third-party software as well.

SynchroScience—Designed for Real-time Performance
M-Audio's
new SynchroScience product development group is all about providing DJs
with the tools they need —as evidenced by the portable and powerful
Conectiv interface. With two pairs of stereo inputs and outputs, easy
USB connectivity and included Torq DJ software, Conectiv can turn any
compatible Mac or PC into a powerful DJ rig. The two large knobs allow
you to seamlessly mix between the incoming audio from a turntable or CD
player with the output of a connected Mac or PC. Conectiv also includes
standard DJ cueing capabilities, so you can listen to any track in your
headphones before sending it out to the house system.


The
included Torq DJ software is a dual-platform application that allows
you to mix, beat-match and cue a variety of digital audio file formats,
including MP3, AIFF, WAV, WMA and AAC. The first time you boot up the
software, it automatically configures itself to work with Conectiv.
Furthermore, the software itself can be controlled via mouse, keyboard,
MIDI controller or control vinyl/CDs. And unlike traditional DJ set-ups
where you're forced to carry around heavy crates of records or CDs, Torq
organizes all of your digital files into a quickly searchable database
on a compact, convenient hard disk—it can even interface directly with
your iTunes library for truly effortless setup. And if that's not
enough, Torq supports third-party VST effect plug-ins and includes both a
dedicated 16-cell sampler and performance recorder.


For
the DJ who chooses to work with vinyl or CDs, Conectiv can turn a
laptop into the most versatile DJ effects unit ever conceived. By
routing the output of a connected turntable or CD player into a program
like Torq or Ableton Live, you can process your tracks with tons of
plug-in effects. Imagine the possibilities of stacking multiple
distortion, EQ, reverb, chorus or bit reduction effects and using the
knobs on Conectiv to blend the dry and processed signals. And by using
industry-standard CoreAudio and ASIO drivers, Conectiv delivers
low-latency operation on both Mac and PC.



Are
you eager to embrace the world of computer-based DJing, but not ready
to give up the feel of your favorite turntable or CD player? Not a
problem.. Simply break out a pair of control vinyl discs or CDs, and
spin digital files loaded in Torq using a traditional DJ setup. And
unlike most—more expensive—digital vinyl systems, Conectiv is also
compatible with other third-party DJ and DAW applications—you can even
use it as an audio interface for Pro Tools M-Powered.


While
laptop systems have long offered conveniences like portability, unique
effects, world-class editing options and instant access to downloadable
music, many of these devices don't deliver the same output volume as
traditional DJ products. Conectiv changes all of that. With a maximum
output level of +2dBV, Conectiv gives you more volume than you need and
can go to toe-to-toe with any DJ product on the market.


M-Audio
interfaces are known for their recording quality and Conectiv is no
exception. With switchable RCA phono/line level inputs and 1/4" mic
input, you can easily record a wide variety of sources with most DAW
software titles, including Pro Tools M-Powered, Ableton Live, Logic,
Cubase, Digital Performer and more.
