Phonic (een merk wat we amper tegen komen in de dj wereld) komt ook met een iPod mixding en hun noemen het de MixPod..... hoe verassend ;-)

Het heeft een behoorlijk beetje moeite gekost om de foto's van de nogal beroerde phonic site (en dan druk ik me heeeeeeel aardig uit) af te krijgen maar uiteindelijk heb ik ze dan toch.

Het apparaat gaat 199$ kosten en dus net zoveel als al zijn andere directe concurenten zoals die van Numark, Gemini, en Ion Audio.


The all new Phonic MixPod gives every Disc Jockey what they require: a way to stream their iPod’s music directly into a quality, no-hassle 2-channel DJ mixer. The MixPod’s features a single iPod cradle on each input channel, allowing for real-time streaming of audio to the corresponding channel. Also featured are the typical RIAA-standard Phono and Line inputs one would expect to find, as well as RCA outputs for the main speakers and recording devices. Your iPod never need leave the MixPod, as users are able to update their podcasts or upload new songs to their iPods through the built-in USB jacks while it is still in the DJ Mixer’s cradle. The MixPod goes a little further, however, and offers complete video and picture reproduction from the iPod to a television set through the simple video out jack. All-in-all, the MixPod is without a doubt the most useful tool any serious – or amateur – DJ could pick up this year.
