DJmix 2000 USB audio interface streamlines internet broadcasting
Wannabe Casey Kasems out there not terrified of being sued into oblivion over broadcasting fees will want to check out NTI Comodo's DJmix 2000, a USB audio interface / control surface with bundled Shoutcast-compatible software that'll have you counting down your personal Hot 100 in no time. The unit features 1/8-inch mic and line inputs, an LED level meter, transport controls, and a giant echo control perfect for simulating that Timmy O'Toole interview. No word on whether we'll see the DJmix 2000 hit the States, but visitors to South Korea can start their broadcast careers for 128,000 won ($140).























Why?
"Uh, I tried gnawing my foot off, but I couldn't get through my sock..."
Wow, that's actually an ingenious product, and a great idea for anyone who has been looking to get into Webcast streams but have no idea where to start. The price tag is a little high though for my taste.
Internally it's just a gamepad of course, so they make some nice profit unless the software is a real effort.
Still, it looks like a cute gadget, but a bit too pricey I think, they should have opted for 'cheap and large market' I think.
No, it's not a game pad.

Yes, it is a control surface but it's also an audio interface combined with led monitoring, dsp effects and purpose driven recording software.
It would be better value if it included an phantom powered XLR mic preamp for those wanting to use a half decent microphone, but considering the market this is pitched at I suppose it makes sense to leave it a 1/8 jack plug.
NTI CoMoDo maybe taking their naming cues from NTT DoCoMo...
