iDJ iPod Music Mixing MP3 Console

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

— December 4, 2005 — Tech
Now you can ante up your party with the iPod DJ mixing console. It's available for $249.99 and lets you dock two iPods and mix your music on the fly.

As the iPod insidiously infiltrates its way into every aspect of society... what better next target than the dance floor? Forget the wax, the iDJ allows you to professionally mix live tunes from two iPods for the listening pleasure of your stylish party guests. You won't know whether your friends are more impressed with your musical mixosity or the fact that you own two iPods (you glutton). You can fully control each iPod directly from the iDJ. Independent 3-band EQ gives you separate adjustment for each channel. USB connectivity allows you to load more music on the fly... it's everything you need to create that 8-bit Nintendo Jay-Z mashup you've been dreaming about. - ThinkGeek
