DJ MOCAP

DJ MoCAP has developed a camera based controller for his TRAKTOR Scratch DJ system.  Click HERE for more pics and info...



With this a DJ can literally ’sketch’ the controls with simple pencil or marker on any surface including paper, wood or plastic and then just rub their fingers over these encircled portions to get the desired music alterations! The movements are captured through a camera pointed towards the surface. The response time to release the effects is optimum and won’t affect the rhythm.

Thats whats up...I just had to let you know about about a company called "I Luv All Access" that sold tickets to your tour. They promised the VIPS a gift package that they still haven't sent. It was supposed to be given on the day of the show (2mths ago) and the only excuse they hold is concerning your company that they say they get the merchandise from...I just thought as one of your biggest fans that paid hundreds of dollars to see you I should let you know how this company is using your name in vain!
Much Luv Kanye

syncity | August 2, 2008
hmmm...interesting...i guess we are going to have to find new ways of cutting cuz it sounds smudgy on the video. oohh that means maybe i can dj on the planes or on buses since there's no need for other heavy equipments like turntables and such!

ANYF1 | August 2, 2008
word to amour .. NOT USEFUL in a live application whatsoever.
traktor sucks too. the sound quality and movements for record / sound manipulation are super weak aka awful. fuck traktor. get serato.

it's bullshit! he's using a turntable. at 14 seconds you can here him hit the turntable on/off switch.
Turtles | August 2, 2008
my bad, 10 seconds.
m_rizzuto | August 3, 2008
damn thats pretty dope!.. if he could find a way to get a crossfader on there it'd be perfect!
Spaceship614 | August 3, 2008
Idk....It seems a little suspect. I'd have to demo this in person. But no one can ever replace actual turntables... the closest you can get away from actual vinyl records on turntables are the digital vinyl turntables....there's always the need to actually feel it. This awfully similar to the Fly Pentop computer but even that needs specialized paper to actually do anything.
