SmithsonMartin Emulator DVS DJ System
DJs are pretty boring to watch. (Editor’s note: Reviewer is a DJ, so back off, trolls.) The Emulator DVS changes that. Looking like something lifted from the nightclub in Tron: Legacy, it’s a giant dashboard for selecting and mixing tracks. Position the included 2,300-lumen projector on the shelf beneath the 42-inch infrared touchscreen and hook up a laptop: The glass bursts to life with throbbing neon buttons, sliders, and knobs. And because the screen is transparent, the audience can watch as you swipe, twist, and tap to keep the beats bumping.
WIRED As capable as pro DJ units with physical controls. Tuned for Traktor Pro but works with other DJ apps. Graphics optimized for ultraquick response.
TIRED Schlepping the 53-pound rig to gigs. Drunks can’t resist touching it. Windows only.
