Our NAMM adventure kicked off with a bang at the Pioneer DJ/Alpha Theta booth, where we had the pleasure of chatting with DJ Pulse. The energy was electric as we got the inside scoop on the groundbreaking OMNIS DUO – a 2-channel All-in-One controller that’s not only battery-powered but also Bluetooth-compatible, allowing you to mix and scratch tracks straight from your phone. Mind blown, right? Check out the OMNIS DUO in action and snag yours below.
Next on our radar was the Alpha Theta WAVE EIGHT Battery Powered Speaker – talk about a pleasant surprise! With onboard wireless connectivity and SonicLink technology, this speaker takes portable audio to a whole new level. Trust me, you won’t want to miss out on this sonic masterpiece. Dive deeper into its features and make it yours here.
But wait, there’s more! We caught up with our old friend DJ Zimmie to get hands-on with the PLX CRSS12 hybrid turntable. From its responsive controls to its customizable features, this turntable is a DJ’s dream come true. Don’t believe me? See for yourself here and grab a pair here.
Now, onto the DDJ REV5 controller, where we met the one and only ProYon Joni. Despite the absence of lightsabers (shocking, I know), this Serato DJ Pro controller packs a serious punch. It may feel lightweight, but rest assured, it’s sturdy enough to handle any gig – just throw it in your bag and hit the road!
As if our day couldn’t get any better, we took a lunchtime detour to meet Andy Mac from AKAI and check out the MPC KEY 37. This standalone production keyboard is a game-changer, offering versatility for both studio sessions and live performances. Plus, it won’t break the bank! Trust me, this is one investment you won’t regret.
But the excitement didn’t stop there! The day wrapped up with an exclusive Afterhours event hosted by Electro Voice, where we got a sneak peek at some groundbreaking speakers that we’ll be unveiling in the coming weeks. While I can’t spill all the beans just yet, I can’t resist sharing the highlight of the night – EVERSE 12. This powerhouse 12-inch 2-way Battery Powered loudspeaker delivers a punchy sound that lasts for up to 12 hours on battery power alone, hitting 95 dB, and when plugged in, it cranks up to 127 dB – perfect for weddings, outdoor events, or any occasion where top-notch sound is a must. Plus, with its IP54 outdoor water-resistant rating, you can trust it to keep the party going, rain or shine. Consider my two thumbs way, way up for this speaker!
