Allen & Heath Xone K2 MIDI Controller

Allen & Heath Xone K2 MIDI Controller











MIDI controller and audio interface with a 4-channel internal soundcard
Allen & Heath have introduced the Xone:K2, a MIDI controller and audio interface with a 4-channel internal soundcard, configurable MIDI surface with tri-colour LED illumination, USB bus-power and incorporating A&H's proprietary X:Link to connect with other Xone equipment.

The K2 is designed to work with all MIDI-enabled DAW applications and interface with popular DJ software packages, such as Ableton, Traktor Pro and Serato Scratch Live. It has 52 physical controls, including 12 analogue and 6 endless rotary encoders with push switch, 4 linear faders, and 30 back lit performances switches, providing up to 171 MIDI control commands across 3 layers. The K2's MIDI interface can be configured by the user, so the unit can be left in Open Architecture (Latching Layers off) Mode or set to Latching Layers Mode.

The K2 has an internal 4-channel high quality soundcard, that can operate at 44.1/48 kHz, and all channels run from the PC to the unit, configured to provide 2 stereo channels, one for headphones one for master out L and R, allowing headphone cueing without interrupting the master out. There is also a dedicated 3.5mm headphone jack and a master out on RCA phono connectors.

It is possible to link 2 x K2 units together to double the control area using Allen & Heath's proprietary X:Link protocol. The X:Link uses a standard RJ45 connector and distributes power and data, which means 2 units can be connected to your DAW using only one USB port.

The Xone:K2 is constructed with a strong plastic base and steel front panel employing A&H's nutted pot construction to be both lightweight and hard-wearing. Finally, the K2 comes with a carry case that doubles as a stand for ease of use for travelling DJs.

Reloop TAPE usb recorder

Reloop TAPE usb recorder



THE MIXTAPE IS BACK!
DJs....you know the situation. Inspiration hits you and you want to record a new live mix to share with friends or promoters online. The only issue is, there's no fast or hassle-free way of capturing the moment without the need of a computer and recording software. Reloop has created a smart solution to this problem with the launch of TAPE - an easy and secure digital recording device with the retro design of the beloved mixtape.

3 BASIC STEPS
With TAPE, there are only 3 basic steps: Step 1. Connect your USB drive. Step 2. Connect your mixer and input cable. Step 3. Press the Record button. And that's it.

HIGHLY VERSATILE POSSIBILITIES
The beauty of TAPE is that your mixes are recorded in digital MP3 format straight onto a USB drive. There's no need to burn the recording - you can simply pass it on to friends or feed it directly to your media player. Thanks to the phono/line switch including a GND grounding post, digitalizing your vinyl classics is also a breeze. Even mixers that do not feature a separate record output can be connected as Reloop has included a smart thru port which routes the signal to the amplifier or speakers. The possibilities are highly versatile.

GOOD BY EXPERIENCE
The recording quality can be adjusted to 192 or 320 kbps via a switch, depending on your requirements and available storage space.

Even in dark surroundings like nightclubs, convenient status LEDs keep you informed about the active power supply, whether a USB storage device is connected, current recordings, and whether the incoming levels are in the green or not.

Good by experience: The Reloop mixtape 2.0
