EKS Otus DJ turntable provides absolute control on the dance floor

by mohsin

The new EKS Otus turntable is one of the best designed and fully customizable DJ turntable in the world. The device features fully remap able knobs, buttons, and touch-sensitive sliders. It uses an aluminum frame for rigidity and protection during travel, while the corners terminate at four sharp feet that are designed to reduce vibrations and allow the controller to be placed directly over standard turntables. The smoked glass surface and feet can also be switched for a customized configuration. The device integrates a 24-bit 6-channel audio interface, with support for 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz signals and providing frequency response from 4Hz to 24 kHz. Two stereo RCA outputs are provided, along with two digital SPDIF connections and a headphone output.

The EKS Otus will cost you around $900 and is compatible with Mac, Windows and Linux operating systems, along with ASIO, Core Audio or any other software that supports MIDI learn.
