Details
The Hercules DJControl Compact Control from Hercules is an ultra-portable USB DJ control surface designed for beginner DJs and home enthusiasts. The included DJUCED 18° DJ software allows for the mixing of two tracks with all controls available on the controller. Two jog wheels allow for cueing and beat matching of their respective tracks, while the onboard crossfader and two volume knobs seamlessly mix the two tracks together. Each deck features a 2-band EQ that allows you to enhance the sound, while the available onboard effects sweeten the mix. The controller is USB bus powered and equipped with four modes (Loop, FX, Samples, Cue) per deck, four pads per deck, and ten control buttons including a SHIFT command allowing you to double all the pad controls. The DJControl Compact ships with a USB cable.
Contains all the features you need and leaves out the ones you don’t
While the DJControl Compact is an über-portable DJ controller, it boasts all the right features. Its two smooth-feeling jog wheels make low-latency scratching a breeze, while also doubling as pitch and navigation controls. Each channel includes a 2-band EQ for polishing your sound and separate volume controls for balancing your levels. Two groups of four backlit pads make triggering loops, effects, samples, hot cues for child’s play. Ten control buttons, plus a Shift button double your pads’ controls. You also get a global crossfader. If you’re new to the world of DJing, Sweetwater wholeheartedly recommends the DJControl Compact — it contains all the features you need and leaves out the ones you don’t.
