Production Gadgets we love here @ Tracktune.net. Today our spotlight is on Behriger CMD DVS-1 module standalone controller
A Stand Alone Controller
The CMD modules work well as standalone controllers for a wide range of
DJ and production software. Whether you’re a DJ, producer, recording engineer,
or hobbyist, CMD controllers make getting a hand on your software easy and affordable.
They’re big enough to be taken seriously, but small enough to fit easily into a
backpack or messenger bag. And because they’re modular, there’s always room to
grow if you decide you want or need even more control over your software.
Using Multiple Modules
This is where the real power of the CMD controllers becomes clear. As a
Serato ScratchLive user, you might only be interested in the DVS-1. But what if
you want to use Bridge to incorporate Ableton Live into your setup? Easy! Just
add an LC-1 next to your DV-1 and you’re all set. Or what if you want to use a
traditional DJ mixer, but still want MIDI control for Traktor’s decks and
effects? No problem, use a PL-1 and DV-1 together. Want to use Ableton Live
exclusively? Get an MM-1 and LC-1 and you have control over 4 channels in Live.
The possibilities are endless.
CMD PL-1 Platter Control Module
With its 4" touch-sensitive wheel, the PL-1 knows when you’re touching it
and where. Touch on the top, and the music stops just as if you were touching a
record. Nudge the side of the platter and you’ll get momentary changes in
playback speed. It performs exactly as you’ve come to expect from years of
turntable and CD deck use.
However, unlike most other deck controllers, this little dynamo comes with a
silky-smooth, high-resolution fader for precise pitch adjustments. If you use
sync in your software and the deck pitch changes, there’s a column of LEDs next
to the pitch fader that lets you know what the pitch on the virtual deck has
changed to – so you always know what’s going on without looking at your
screen.
Only have room for one controller in your booth? Not a problem! The PL-1
supports deck switching for controlling up to four decks, so a single module is
the perfect backup deck or add-on when using software that allows for more than
two virtual decks.
But just one controller? That’s no fun – remember the old mantra “go big or go
home?” So why not pair up four PL-1 controllers with an MM-1 Mixer module and
enjoy the ultimate four deck experience… 4 channels… 4 platters… No confusion.
And still easily portable.
