ABOUT X-SESSION PRO

X-Session Pro is a hardware control surface that has been designed to give you complete hands-on control over Torq LE. This controller looks and feels like a traditional DJ mixer but allows you to do things like start, stop, and cue songs,

crossfade between the two decks, and to apply EQ and effects without having to touch your computer or use a mouse. As you push a button, twist a knob, or move a fader on X-Session Pro, you’ll see Torq come to life as its corresponding on-screen button, knob, or fader begins moving with you.

X-Session Pro’s sleek, lightweight, and portable design makes it the perfect travel companion for laptop-based DJs. The controller connects to your computer via a single USB cable and draws power through the USB connection. This eliminates the need to carry around a bulky power supply and makes it easy to set up and mix from anywhere.
