And a $2000 piece of consumer electronics perched in an environment clearly not supportive of sensitive materials. Not to mention the complete death of your stage presence from gluing yourself to your laptop the entire time.Quote:

It has jog effects I believe.
usb drive plugged into Aero for direct connect of music (I dont trust music streaming wirelessly since all I have to do is plug in a simple usb drive to avoid the chances of a screw up) then connect my iPad wirelessly so I can use the RB app to browse, search and load the music from the usb drive to the appropriate deck, Even if you lose wireless, all you lose is a display, you can still control and use everything right on the Aero until wireless is back up and runningQuote:

4 Operate rekordbox on the mobile device to select the track.

Track loading starts. The jog dial indicator on the deck on which the track is being loaded flashes.
Once playback is possible, the jog dial indicator stops flashing, remain- ing lit, the track name is displayed on the main unit display and playback starts (by factory default).

I can see me selling my cdj1000s for this. The only downside is that i can't see me using the sample sounds that are included but maybe in the future you will be able to add your own?
Best feature showcase for this unit i've seen yet..
The buffer on it is massive, gave him at least 2mins + of playtime and should calm down anyone who has a "wireless is not reliable" arguement. Looks super responsive as well.
Definitely see this feature being implemented into a new range of pro units in the near future. I dont believe they would bring out rekordbox mobile just for a consumer device alone.
As the man says, this brings proper Rekordbox preperation into the affordability of the bedroom without needing to shell out for 350's or higher.
Not often I say this about Pioneer, but WAY TO GO GUYS !! I haven't seen such good innovation from you since the CDJ500
been a bit 2 sided about the XDJ but now I'm convinced I want one just need to sell my mother first :D
I'm pretty convinced I'm also going to want one. Selling my S2. Getting this thing to play out at places that don't have CDJs I like.
I mean. I'm looking at this thing to replace my CDJs as a whole almost. But thats just bananas lol.
This makes me think about what their next modular devices will look like. I'm picturing one of those decks, slightly wider, same thickness, color LCD touchscreen, CDJ-2000 style jog (maybe a bit smaller).
