Reloop's Terminal Mix 8 is a 4-deck pad-based performance controller designed to work intimately with the popular Serato DJ software. The controller was developed in close cooperation with Serato, and it responds to the requirements of professional club DJs who want to offer spectacular live performances with creative effect manipulation and unique controllerist possibilities. Endorsed with the same premium features and build that have made Terminal Mix controllers instantly recognizable around the world, but expanding on its forbears thanks to a sophisticated performance section with touch-sensitive multi-color drum pads, the Terminal Mix 8 is a true whiz kid. The centerpiece of the Terminal Mix 8 is the clearly laid-out and intuitive PAD performance section, where 16 touch-sensitive RGB drum pads can be used to trigger cue points, loops, samples & a slicer effect. The Slice and Loop modes allow creative re-arrangements on the fly. In addition to this, all banks of the mighty Serato DJ SP-6 sampler can be easily accessed and intuitively triggered with the Terminal Mix 8, and 8 cue points per track can be stored and triggered in real-time. The color-coded pads allow visual feedback regarding status and selection of the selected performance mode, so even in dark club surroundings DJs can easily distinguish which mode they're in. The extensive effect section offers 3 rotary knobs, an endless encoder and 4 buttons, making it easy and intuitive to control the complete range of Serato DJ's iZotope-powered effects. The clearly structured, ergonomically intuitive mixer/player design is ideally suited to a professional DJ's traditional workflow, and offers new improvements on previous Terminal Mix models. On the device's rear panel, the built-in audio interface offers sufficient connections to easily connect directly to any club, PA or home set-up. The Terminal Mix 8 comes plug-and-play-ready with the latest full version of Serato DJ.
