Pacemaker
Friday, February 29th, 2008
This thing is the coolest little piece of digital music technology since the ipod. The Pacemaker is a mobile (pocket sized and only 7 ounces in weight) personal DJ mixing system. Its massive hard drive (120GB) allows for storage of more than enough music to play around with. Its touch control system allows you to select songs, mix, change pitch, sample, loop, filter, and much more! Its essentially Serato Scratch in the palm of your hand. Bonkers! Some beta devices have been delivered to a small population of DJs and technology folks and its getting rave reviews from everyone from what we are told. This thing is going to inspire a whole new crop of DJs after people get their hands on it. It will see its official public release sometime in March and will retail for $700.
To the good folks at Tonium…..Please send us one!!! We are big tech geeks over here as well as musicologists. We will promote the hell out of this thing for you!
Here are a few videos to show you how cool this thing really is.
