Numark DDS80

DDS80 is the complete DJ system for live performance with the industry's fastest, most intuitive interface. The DDS80 delivers everything you need so you can perform your set while leaving your laptop at home.

Numark's DDS is a rack-mountable media player created for DJ performance and is ideal for all DJ environments. The DDS was designed using feedback from professional working DJs and includes all of the essentials like pitch-shift, key lock, scratch, loop and lightning-fast track lookup. Advanced views like track profiling give new dynamic and control to hardware performance. Best of all, DDS is built on with the same stunning color screen, powerful DJ engine and has the same unique Crate workspace used in Numark's popular iDJ2 workstation.

Powerful tools such as the Crate and Profile View offer a digital slant on traditional DJ methods. The Crate can be used to prepare and arrange your set in advance, during your performance or a mixture of both. The Profile View offers a fast visual cueing aid, much like looking at the grooves on a record, but better!

DDS Drive
The DDS80 also includes Numark's DDS Drive media rack, which greatly expands your media options and connects with the simplicity of USB. Connect the DDS to the DDS Drive and access the removable and upgradeable 80GB hard drive, or DVD/CD-ROM drive to play your audio CDs.

Empower yourself and energize your performances with nearly any kind of media. DDS Drive connects directly to your computer, allowing you to quickly and easily transfer your library and optimize performance. When you're ready for your gig, leave your computer at home and let the DDS Drive and DDS do all the heavy lifting. If you have an iPod, thumb drive or any Mac or WIndows formatted USB drive, you can use it with the DDS80 and all of your music tracks will be available in one convenient place.

DDS80 is a powerhouse, cutting-edge system that combines the rock-solid DJ performance features of the DDS, with the convenience and speed of a full-featured dedicated media rack.
