Mixer
It’s all in the mix, or so they say, and Torq’s Mixer delivers the
goods. The Mixer takes the audio from the two Decks and gives you
control over what can be heard by means of volume controls, audio
equalizers, and a crossfader. Two Decks and a Mixer: the essential
tools for a DJ .
PFL/Headphone Cue
DJs commonly listen to a track on their headphones without letting their audience hear it. This allows them to match the tempo
of the new song to the current one, along with finding the correct starting position for the song. Torq will allow you to monitor
either Deck on headphones, and also features a stereo headphone split normally reserved for high-quality DJ mixers.
Browser/Database
There is a third ingredient to DJing, and that’s music—lots of music. To help you stay on top of your massive music collection,
Torq features a Database for cataloging and searching tracks. It will monitor your favorite folders and allow you to create playlists
for future performances .
