Bus-powered Audio Interface Designed for Live DJ Performance
This is the Conectiv Kit, which includes Control Vinyl and CDs. Conectiv, 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.

M-Audio Conectiv - There isn't one area of music that hasn't been impacted by the digital technology - with the main tradeoff being features vs feel. M-Audio's SynchroScience division is dedicated to providing the best of both worlds for DJs - feature-rich, easily portable and affordable digital solutions combined with the traditional sound feel of turntables and vynyl. M-Audio's Conectiv is the world's first bus-powered 4 x 4 USB audio interface designed for DJs who perform and produce tracks with a laptop.

M-Audio Conectiv at a Glance:
  • Bus-powered 4 x 4 USB audio interface with DJ performance software
  • Designed for Real-time Performance
  • Mix, beat-match, and cue a variety of digital audio file formats
  • Multiple distortion, EQ, reverb, chorus or bit reduction effects
  • High output and high-quality recording


Mix, beat-match and cue digital files
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 optional 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.

Designed for Real-time Performance
M-Audio's new SynchroScience product development group is all about providing DJs with the tools they need - as evidenced by the portable and powerful Conectiv interface. With two pairs of stereo inputs and outputs, easy USB connectivity and included Torq DJ software, Conectiv can turn any compatible Mac or PC into a powerful DJ rig. The two large knobs allow you to seamlessly mix between the incoming audio from a turntable or CD player with the output of a connected Mac or PC. Conectiv also includes standard DJ cueing capabilities, so you can listen to any track in your headphones before sending it out to the house system.

Dual-platform Application
The included Torq DJ software is a dual-platform application that allows you to mix, beat-match and cue a variety of digital audio file formats, including MP3, AIFF, WAV, WMA and AAC. The first time you boot up the software, it automatically configures itself to work with Conectiv. Furthermore, the software itself can be controlled 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 organizes all of your digital files into a quickly searchable database on a compact, convenient hard disk-it can even interface directly with your iTunes library for truly effortless setup. And if that's not enough, Torq supports third-party VST effect plug-ins and includes both a dedicated 16-cell sampler and performance recorder.

DJ Effects Unit
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.
       
Top-Quality Recording
While laptop systems have long offered conveniences like portability, unique effects, world-class editing options and instant access to downloadable music, many of these devices don't deliver the same output volume as traditional DJ products. Conectiv changes all of that. With a maximum output level of +2dBV, Conectiv gives you more volume than you need and can go to toe-to-toe with any DJ product on the market. M-Audio interfaces are known for their recording quality and Conectiv is no exception. With switchable RCA phono/line level inputs and a 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.

Sweetwater Expert Advice
 
  "This is a great new way to work with your digital music. You can create dance floor-filling mixes with or without the use of your external turntables and mixer. Whether you're playing out live or needing to get your vocals onto vinyl for studio scratching and production, this is a great tool to have. Now, with ReWire support, you can get your mixes or scratches right into your favorite sequencer!! "
Carson McClain

  "M-Audio just took the laundry list of things DJs are looking for and came out with one the most exciting new products for DJs and remix artists this year! With Conectiv you can connect to any 3rd-party-compatible program such as Traktor, you can ReWire into Live, and even use the interface for Pro Tools M-Powered! Conectiv also comes with one of the most feature-rich and advanced DJ programs called Torq. With incredible effects built in and the ability to load VST effects, looping capabilities, 16 sample banks that are instantly recallable, full MIDI control by devices such as a Trigger Finger, the options available for DJ and remix artists are incredible. To top it off, this Conectiv kit also includes time-coded control CDs and vinyl that emulate the way a DJ would work with real turntables and CD players. I have to say I am highly impressed with the combination of this platform, hardware, and software. For the price you would be crazy not to add it to your arsenal. After working with Serato for the last few years, the vinyl emulation of Torq/Conectiv is incredibly accurate, and right on par with Serato. The added bonus is now you can use this standalone or with control records/CDs and even with a 3rd-party application via ReWire or using Conectiv as the audio interface. HUUUGGGEEE! "
