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 co ntrol over what can be

heard by means of volume controls, audio equa lizers, and a crossfader. Two

Decks and a Mixer: the essential to ols for a DJ.

PFL/Headphone Cue

DJs commonly listen to a track on their h eadphones without letting their au dience hear it. This allows them to matc h the

tempo of the new song to the current one, alon g with ﬁnding the correct starting p osition for the song. Torq will allow you

to monitor either Deck on headphones , preview music from the Browser, and also features a stereo headph one split normally

reserved for high-quality DJ mi xers.

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 co llection,

Torq features a Database for cataloging and searchin g tracks. It will monitor your favorite folder s and allow you to create

playlists for future performance s.
