Dan White at DJ TechTools sent word that they’ve launched what they’re calling the ‘coolest knobs ever’ for modding your gear…Their goals for the new line:
Texas company Livid have been making beautifully crafted hardware such as Ohm 64, as well as various software products, since 2000 now. Their latest product is The Block — a multi-purpose controller for the digital DJ or VJ.
When we opened the box our first impression was that The Block looked pretty stylish and minimalist. The silver front plate, blue LED pads and wood casing go together very nicely.
The VMS4 features American Audio’s signature “Velocity” touch-sensitive jog wheels, a full-function mouse pad, Midi assignable touchstrips and high-quality channel and crossfaders.
This all-in-one unit has all the features found on top-of-the-line professional mixer as well, such as: Balanced XLR outputs, Gain, Treble, Mid and Bass for each Midilog™ channel, crossfader assign and curve, and 2 Microphone Inputs with Treble,Mid and Bass control.
The price, around 390 (€)
