Vestax release VCI-100 MIDI DJ controller


Vestax have brought out a new DJ MIDI controller called the Vestax VCI-100. Vestax were late to the laptop DJ game and possibly spurred on by Ranes TTM57SL or the Allen & Heath Xone 3d have decided 2007 is their year. According to them "the VCI-100 is highly PROFESSIONAL with a JOG wheel built with sensor and control technology from our turntables. Also featured is a variable curve generator that controls the crossfader curve from the hardware with original faders. The VCI-100 is built with high quality mechanical parts and a PCB designed for accurate and stable operation."
It has that same ulitarian look of the Mac books a sleek grey with a soft blue underlight on the jogwheels... very futuristic. Bundled software includes Native Instruments Traktor 3 LE and IntergratedBeatport store access. It'll run on OSX 10 and XP2... so this one is only for newer laptops but at least it will work on Mactels. The Vestax VC-100 is earmarked to retail at $499.
