M-AUDIO CONECTIV DJ SOFTWARE WITH CD'S AND VINYLConectiv, developed by M-Audio's SynchroScience division, is the world's first bus-powered 4 x 4 USB audio interface designed for DJs who perform and produce tracks with a laptop. Together, Conectiv and the included Torq software form the ultimate DJ tool?high-fidelity audio, all the right kinds of I/O (including dual phono preamps), and the ability to mix, beat-match and cue digital files with ease. Use them as a completely digital solution and leave the heavy stacks of vinyl or bulky wallets of CDs at home?or process your vinyl and CDs on the fly. You can even create a hybrid digital/vinyl DJ rig by using Conectiv and Torq with specially encoded control vinyl discs or CDs. Torq supports popular formats such as MP3, WAV, WMA and AAC files and is configured to automatically work with Conectiv?no messy set-ups. And unlike most digital DJ systems, Conectiv works with other third-party software as well.
This kit features CONNECTIV plus a pair of timecoded CD's and and a pair of time-coded vinyls.
For the DJ who chooses to work with vinyl or CDs, Conectiv can turn a laptop into the most versatile DJ effects unit ever conceived. By routing the output of a connected turntable or CD player into a program like Torq or Ableton Live, you can process your tracks with tons of plug-in effects. Imagine the possibilities of stacking multiple distortion, EQ, reverb, chorus or bit reduction effects and using the knobs on Conectiv to blend the dry and processed signals. And by using industry-standard CoreAudio and ASIO drivers, Conectiv delivers low-latency operation on both Mac and PC.
M-Audio interfaces are known for their recording quality and Conectiv is no exception. With switchable RCA phono/line level inputs and " mic input, you can easily record a wide variety of sources with most DAW software titles, including Pro Tools M-Powered, Ableton Live, Logic, Cubase, Digital Performer and more.
Torq DJ software, developed by M-Audio's SynchroScience division, is a dual-platform application that allows you to cue, beat-match and mix a variety of digital audio file formats, including MP3, AIFF, WAV, WMA and AAC. Included with all M-Audio SynchroScience products*, this easy-to-use application automatically configures itself to work with compatible hardware the very first time you boot it up. You can access the power of Torq via mouse, keyboard, MIDI controller or control vinyl/CDs. And unlike traditional DJ set-ups where you?re forced to carry around heavy crates of records or CDs, Torq uses the digital files on your computer's hard drive and provides access to them through a quickly searchable database?it can even interface directly with your iTunes library for truly effortless setup. As if that's not enough, Torq supports third-party VST effect plug-ins and includes both a dedicated 16-cell sampler and performance recorder.
* Torq is only available with M-Audio SynchroScience interfaces.

Comments about M-Audio By Avid M-Audio CONECTIV-KIT DJ Software W/ CD And Vinyl:
Best bang for your buck by far! Only paid [$]. It came with the older version on torq software but the new version (2.0) w/ the free upgrade is soooo much better. Ive used serato, tracktor and was hesitent to buy torq but for the price I figured Id try it. I couldnt be any happier with my purchase. I gigged with it last night in a 1000 people capasity club and it sounded great. Unfortantly the torq software isnt as user freindly on the fly like serato n traktor, but Ive been using the timecode with vdj and love it! Latency is no problem at all. Same as the stuff you pay 3times more for. I wish the conectiv box was better looking but when your up on stage people dont see the box anyways.

Comments about M-Audio By Avid M-Audio CONECTIV-KIT DJ Software W/ CD And Vinyl:
Torq is the only Dj software that i've found that has high quality key lock pitch shifting. (elastique time stretching). I'm a harmonic mixing dj, so key lock is important to me. with regular key lock you are limited by how far you can slow something down. One thing tho... with elastique time stretching turned on, you have to move your pitch slider slower to avoid audio artifacts. Which is just a side effect of using this high quality key lock. Worth it.

Comments about M-Audio By Avid M-Audio CONECTIV-KIT DJ Software W/ CD And Vinyl:
I am a proud owner of M-Audio Torq. I love the interface, diffenent skins, sound, and layout; but there is a great need for improving some features. My first gripe is; there should be two sample bays/channels, it is annoying having to go into setup everyime there is a need to switch to the other channel. The font that list the songs in the bottom should be larger, it's too tiny. The effects should work in bypass mode. Also, I think that M-Audio Avid should produce a Torq interface with Full MIDI capabilities for use with other MIDI Controllers. Just a taught.

Comments about M-Audio By Avid M-Audio CONECTIV-KIT DJ Software W/ CD And Vinyl:
I use to have serato, unfortunately it was stolen with my other turntables, so i replaced it with torq after doing some research. i've dj'd in some of the biggest clubs in the midwest(1st ave dance club-minneapolis, The Hub-Fargo, nd, O.B.-Fargo, N.D.)this works great for all venues, i also own a mobile dj company that only uses torq and it works great.

Comments about M-Audio By Avid M-Audio CONECTIV-KIT DJ Software W/ CD And Vinyl:
So years down the road and finally saying something about my DVS.Where to begin...so at first its frustrating. Finding optimal settings is crucial, when things go wrong during a performance be ready and be smart. I now have 1.5 and it is great. I have played with every DVS with turntables live and they are all great, Torq has just always held features that others dont and didnt. I found the best way to run Torq is with a MAC or high speed PC. I cant begin to tell u the types of tests i have done and what i have found on the leading DVS. Maybe on the M-Audio Forum. To keep all this as short as possible...Torq works people.
-Power to all you aspiring musicians!

Comments about M-Audio By Avid M-Audio CONECTIV-KIT DJ Software W/ CD And Vinyl:
i used serato for three yrs until recently when all my equipment was stolen, i decided that since i had not expierenced any other dvs to give this a try being it's been compared to serato in the past...it blew my mind the latency is better than serato, and it was basically plug and play, no need to have to relearn everything, the features are more abundanct as well, great product
