The Future of DJ’ing by Attigo TT1

Founder Scott Hobbs wanted to design a complete mp3 mixing system with a touch screen interface that was possible to create an entirely new DJ’ing experience, by bringing back DJ Performance to DJ’ing. I gotta say that he’s pretty much achieved that.

To put it really simply ATTIGO TT allows DJs to see, push their potential using the digital medium to hear and touch music the way we would imagine the future to look like. We’re talking about touch screen scratching, live sampling multi channel mixing but very reminiscent of how it would all be dont on your 1210‘s.

The TT allows DJs to see, hear and touch music in a completely new dimension with a visualisation of the music travelling vertically upwards. The waveform of the music can be manipulated similar to a vinyl record on a turntable, with the abilty to ‘scratch’ and along with all the other functions to control the music, this is the most simple and exciting way to mix mp3 songs.

I discovered this project through Justina Bailey‘s blog however (as always) I needed to know more and was well pleased when I discovered he had a video diary of its development from start to finish! Here are a couple of them…

Some might say that this sorta thing is taking the skill out of DJ’ing but hey my option is simple, more DJ’s means more parties means more happier people. I’m an mp3 DJ myself but thats because I cant find room for 1210′s or CDJ-900‘s or records for that matter, besides I’m not a live performer. However I think Attigo TT might be on a different level to anything else. Live sampling is the way forward to any live performance.
