CMD LC-1 Live Control Module
Ableton Live is amazing and powerful
software, adding new DJ converts on a
daily basis. While the benefits of Live for
DJ use are clear, compelling hardware
control can be a challenge. As a DJ,
do you move away from the workflow
you’ve been using for years and feel
comfortable with? Or do you map Live to
a traditional controller, but miss out on
the number of buttons needed to trigger
clips effectively? The CMD LC-1 provides
the best of both worlds.
The LC-1 is a clip triggering machine.
The clip section has 32 buttons that are
backlit in multiple colors and respond to
MIDI feedback. But Live isn’t just about
clips; it’s also about effects. So there’s
an effects control section above the clip
area, with 8 encoders and 8 buttons.
Below the clip area there are also buttons
for channel mute, solo and record.
On its own, the LC-1 makes a great
controller for clip management, as
well as a great addition to any Serato
ScratchLive user’s Bridge-based setup.
But when paired with the MM-1 Mixer
module, this dynamic duo turns into a
fantastic Live controller – combining
the clip triggering and effect tweaking
power of the LC-1 with the smooth
mixing and scene navigating capabilities
of the MM-1. Are you a producer in
need of a beat creation station? Throw a
DC-1 into the mix for 16 pads of digital
drum destruction.
And remember that at its heart,
the LC-1 is an array of assignable buttons
and knobs. So, why not use it to access
cue points in Virtual DJ or Traktor? Or with
a step sequencer? The LC-1 can handle all
this and more with ease.
CMD PL-1 Platter Control Module
Small enough to fit in a tight DJ
booth, but big enough to deliver the
performance you need, the PL-1 is a
robust platter controller—no matter what
DJ software you use.
With its 4
"
touch-sensitive wheel,
the PL-1 knows when you’re touching
it and where. Touch on the top, and the
music stops just as if you were touching
a record. Nudge the side of the platter
and you’ll get momentary changes in
playback speed. It performs exactly as
you’ve come to expect from years of
turntable and CD deck use.
However, unlike most other deck
controllers, this little dynamo comes with
a silky-smooth, high-resolution fader
for precise pitch adjustments. If you use
sync in your software and the deck pitch
changes, there’s a column of LEDs next to
the pitch fader that lets you know what
the pitch on the virtual deck has changed
to – so you always know what’s going on
without looking at your screen.
Only have room for one controller in
your booth? Not a problem! The PL-1
supports deck switching for controlling
up to four decks, so a single module is
the perfect backup deck or add-on when
using software that allows for more than
two virtual decks.
But just one controller? That’s no
fun – remember the old mantra “go big
or go home?” So why not pair up four
PL-1 controllers with an MM-1 Mixer
module and enjoy the ultimate four deck
experience… 4 channels… 4 platters…
No confusion. And still easily portable.
Isn’t it nice to have choices?
