Starting to remind me of a portable tape recorder, I wonder how it sounds
700? You can get a Reloop mixtour and an old ipad for less.. It will have more cablle clutter for sure but that thing looks a tad bit to small to comfortably ”perform” on.. even the presentor was struggling with the size lol
I do think they designed the form factor wrong with this one.. should been slightly bigger.Wouldn’t have reduced portability much but woulda made a world of difference in usability. Hmm, actually, if there were no speakers, the size would be ample.. so increasing form factor by the amount size taken by the of speakers would have been sufficient.
What many of us need are machines for live performing. The only machine really near the concept is the Octatrack by Elektron, where you can really play with your tracks and sounds in a manner unique and different to a dj setup. (which I hate personally)
I love the form factor of this thing but GoDJ support is piss poor. I’ve had a bug with the EQ knobs on a peice of DJ gear for 4 months?! I reported it privately to begin with but it’s been to long so being the squeekly wheel now… https://godj.uservoice.com/forums/265968-general/suggestions/33662719-godj-pro-broken-since-firmware-17696r-171031-new
