DJ4 as successor of the DJ3 is a controller for each DJ application with MIDI remote functionality. The device is optimized for NI Traktor Pro and has 8 centered pots for EQ and filter, 3 faders, 4 push-encoders to control FX, deck, global functions and various colored buttons and LEDs. There are some improvements like MIDI ports, 4 additional buttons (filter + kill) and better encoder knobs. New colored controls makes it easy to find the right button in dark club situations. Now the bahaviour of the controls is programmable to adapt the device to other applications. Use the internal 4 setups to save your individual settings. The factory settings and the enclosed setup files for Traktor Pro and Ableton Live are perfect to control them out of the box. Three switchable midi routings makes the unit much more flexible for complex midi setups. Simultaneous control of external gear and computer software is no problem for the DJ4 due to the available USB and MIDI ports. It's also possible to extend your setup by other midi controllers thru the MIDI ports.
