Rock-Solid Professional DJ Hardware
The Torq Xponent hardware/software system delivers everything a professional DJ needs to perform with a computer. Xponent is both an advanced MIDI control surface for Torq software and a four-output USB audio interface that includes two stereo RCA outputs and a standard 1/4-inch headphone output for cueing. Every control on Xponent boasts the same rock-solid construction and rugged feel as traditional DJ hardware. So if you're ready to make the leap to the world of software-based DJing, you'll feel right at home with Xponent.

Get Inside the Mix
Torq 1.5 DJ 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 song--on the fly--and 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 tracks--or cause other songs to adopt the tempo changes--making 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 Processing
Torq 1.5 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 creation--and 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.

Dynamic Control Over Torq 1.5 Software
The best DJ tools allow you to get your hands on your music--from cueing to beat matching to scratching. M-Audio designed the Xponent control surface with full-size, DJ CD-player-style controls so you can get into the music and engage the crowd during each moment of your set. Xponent features 64 assignable backlit buttons (including Play, Cue, Seek, Loop, Key and Sync controls), two volume sliders, eight assignable knobs for effect control and two 100mm pitch sliders. The built-in touchpad/assignable X/Y controller allows you to control your mouse or the effects in Torq, so you never have to take your hands off the unit in the middle of a performance.

Made to Work Together
Torq 1.5 DJ software for Mac and PC automatically configures itself to work with Xponent--every hardware control is pre-mapped to its corresponding function in Torq. It's easy to get up and running with Xponent because all of the hardware controls are located exactly where you'd expect them to be. The transition into digital DJing couldn't be simpler.

Plays Well with Others
In addition to VST compatibility, Torq 1.5 software can interface with any ReWire-compatible host application. You can easily route the output of Torq to a program like Pro Tools M-Powered and explore even more performance, production and sound design possibilities. When ReWired to a host application, the tempo of Torq automatically locks to the current session tempo, so you never have to worry about syncing playback between Torq and your preferred DAW. In addition, the Xponent control surface can be MIDI-mapped to other digital audio workstation software including Ableton Live.

Will.I.Am uses this himself.2010-08-055 / 5
I don't own this item, but I saw Will.I.Am using it last night at the Black Eyed Peas concert during his Dj Set. It was amazing..so if he uses this in concerts, it must be good.=)
Good value for money!2010-06-155 / 5
I ordered this product more than a year ago and only got down to reviewing it today. When it first arrived it came with all the required components and I couldn't wait to use it. Although it has a slight "plasticky" feeling to it and might not seem to last, I am happy to report that it has lasted me a year so far with constant use. Although I'm not a professional club DJ, I have been using this product almost every week for hours at a time mixing music and it hasn't failed me yet. I highly recommend this for people who want something to bring to parties for more fun because it's easier to carry than a full set of turntables + mixer + records combo.
If it worked it would be great2010-05-233 / 5
It worked great for about a month then the master output bass failed, the button mapping became buggy (requiring a reinstall of the software) and the booth volume knob fell off. Perhaps I got a lemon...
All-In-One Digital DJ System2010-04-215 / 5
It has everything you need to start DJ'ing. It's easy, fast, and sounds great.
The on-the-fly effects are awesome, and beatmatching is simplified using visuals
and auto-beatkeeper, which is used by the press of a button.

Awesome!2010-01-095 / 5
Awesome unit, great, rock solid software. It is a bit fragile though. I stepped on my headphone cable and broke the headphone jack internally on my very first gig. Luckily the waveform display is so great, I was able to mix without headphones. I have since replaced the jack with a short pigtail cable connected to an in-line jack. Now, if I trip over the cable, it just unplugs.
