Hello,
I received the Pacemaker 4 days ago. The packaging is beautifully made, I made pictures of each step, I do not know or place for which you are available.
Overnight charge and I am ready to use.
Firstly, load the tracks in the hard disk for this, I used the Pacemaker Editor software product available for free. In the same way as iTunes, to manage the library of the tool and the update of the basic software (firmware).
WinVista64 for users like me, I started the installation mode WinXP32. This is the way I found for the installation successfully.
Since then, all is well.
The grip of the Pacemaker is easy for someone who has followed the product since its announcement and viewed videos of the first pieces received by some well-known DJ.
If this is not your case -> read the manual.
Once the orders and the handling of the touch interface mastered, I realized that it is a tool that works.
As a DJ, I can mix tracks the tempo, correct the standard tones (low, medium, high), make up, set the start and I want (cue) change the tempo (bpm), for cons, I have not find the master tempo, ie, change the speed without the tone :-(
It is possible to use the mixer unit (basic function), or using the headphone and line, use an external mixer as two standard CD players.
There are 4 effects per channel integrated appreciate that I leave for another, I do not find them for my taste (echo, reverb, rol-on, hi-lo cut)
For cons, I love working out in public transport, use this free time to experiment with mixes, bootlegs, etc..
I also tried the Pacemaker with a big sound system, and is truly stunning, a small tool that can do as a basic standard of work with two turntables and a mixer.
A vice to push the bit further, I live on a connected amp ... and, watch out the neighborhood, I realized that the volume control is not easily accessible.
Likes: compact, all in one tool, well finished, light, mix it thunder, sound, generous 120GB capacity, multi-format
I do not like: the price-sensitive interface, not locking the keyboard, some spectacular effects, but not easily accessible controls for this size, the designers could not do otherwise.
Summary: I'm happy overall. It is a tool not be used as a means of training or means of production. Recommend. In addition, the local DJ to whom I showed the Pacemaker want one!
PS: I think preparing a show with wireless ... mix in the audience among the dancers is now possible
