Nuclear Musicians: Radioactive Orchestra
Radioactive orchestra is a cross-boundary collaboration of nuclear physicists, a DJ and one media artist. The project wishes to inspire young people to learn about the natural sciences, but it also has an artistic aim to find new musically interesting patterns. By giving every radioactive isotop its own sound based on scientific algorithms they turn nuclear science into music, hence making a world available to us that our senses can not otherwise percieve.

$899 / 799 € / 83800 ¥
Introducing the Traktor Kontrol Z2: Controllerism
Traktor Kontrol Z2 is the first 2+2 control mixer designed from the ground up for Traktor. Watch it in action in this new 4-deck video — controllist guru Ean Golden performs a chilled-out, downtempo composition, showcasing the all-new Macro FX and Flux Mode in the upcoming Traktor software version, using 2 Traktor Kontrol F1 Remix Deck controllers with the Z2.
Traktor Kontrol Z2 excels equally as a control hub, or as a standalone mixer, with its aircraft-grade aluminum chassis and rock-solid, ultra-dependable Innofaders™. Step up to the future of mixing — in stores November 1, 2012.
More information: http://www.native-instruments.com/z2-dj-mixer
The features of the Z2:
- Aircraft-grade aluminum – which, by the way, is what we just saw in the DIY Apollo 13 controller yesterday
- Traktor Pro software bundled (and integrated with the controller features).
- Innofader-brand faders, “high-quality” knobs.
- Multi-colored LED buttons, assigned to Remix Decks and cue points. (For those of you who hate the color disco-fication of NI’s hardware, sorry, there’s more.)
- Two standalone mixer channels for external analog inputs – think Pioneer CDJs or turntables.
- Two channels from the soundcard for independent control of the Traktor Remix Decks, cue points, and effects (and, for audio signal, anything you want to route from your computer).
- Dedicated Remix Deck section, and Master section for Traktor file browsing, Sync and Quantize.
- Macro FX, so that you can combine multiple effects on one control. (Also known as “Skrillexing.” Joke. Yes, you can also do classic breakdowns.)
- 24-bit internal soundcard with – at last – XLR balanced outputs.
- Separate booth output, separate mic input. (This is a DJ mixer, after all.)
- Additional aux input, atop the turntable connections. (iPad, perhaps?)
- HID controller implementation.
- USB hub
