Torq even gives you access to your entire iTunes libraryliterally putting all your music at your fingertips.
Get Inside the MixTorq software makes it easy to go beyond basic beat matching and crossfading between tracks. With a 16-cell, tempo-synced sampler, easy looping capabilities and multiple cue points, you can chop up a songon the flyand reorder, remix and extend any section you want, all while staying perfectly in time. The QuickScratch feature lets you instantly scratch with any two loaded samples. Tempo Anchors remove tempo variations from your tracksor cause other songs to adopt the tempo changesmaking mash-ups and live remixes a breeze. Tempo Master synchronizes all tracks, samples and effects within Torq, while MIDI clock transmits tempo information to outboard hardware and other computers so you can collaborate with friends. And if you also want to produce, Torq is ReWire-compatible with Pro Tools M-Powered' software and other popular applications.
Advanced Effects ProcessingTorq 1.5 software gives you 10 essential effects right out of the box for dynamic manipulation of your tracks. Imagine the possibilities of stacking multiple distortion, filter, repeat, chorus or bit-reduction effects while mixing between songs. You can turn any track into your own original creationand even record it on the spot with the integrated performance recorder. Torq also allows you to create recallable snapshots of your favorite EQ, effect and mixer settings, and even supports the vast world of third-party VST effects plug-ins.
ConectivThe Torq Conectiv USB interface delivers world-class M-Audio technology, outfitting your digital DJ rig with two pairs of RCA stereo inputs and outputs, phono preamps and a microphone input. Two large knobs allow you to seamlessly mix between the incoming analog audio from a turntable or CD player and the digital 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. And with a maximum output level of +10dBV, Conectiv gives you enough volume to go toe-to-toe with any DJ hardware on the market.
Traditional FeelThe included Torq Control Vinyl records and Torq Control CDs allow you to manipulate digital audio files with the same feel and response as a traditional DJ setup. Simply connect your turntables or DJ CD players to Conectiv, enable external control in Torq, and you'll be able to cue and scratch your music just as if you were using the original records or CDs. Extremely low latency and super-fast response allow for battle-style scratching techniques and easy beat juggling. Torq also includes multiple operating modes that can make playback behave like a traditional turntable or a DJ CD playerand there is even a hybrid mode that blends the strengths of both vinyl and CD-style control.
Take ControlTorq lets you work the way you want. In addition to mouse control, Torq can be operated using a QWERTY keyboard or MIDI controller like the M-Audio Oxygen 8 v2 or Trigger Finger. For instance, you could control the Torq software effects with the Trigger Finger sliders, while reserving the pads for snapshot settings that allow you to instantly switch between virtual mixer setups.
Universal CompatibilityWhile Torq and Conectiv are designed to work together seamlessly, Conectiv is also compatible with any Mac or PC software using CoreAudio and ASIO driversdelivering low-latency performance as a recording interface for DAWs like Ableton Live, Logic, Cubase, Digital Performer and more.
