Hercules DJ control Air

The Hercules DJ Control Air is a 2-deck DJ controller. This controller has 2 jog wheels with pressure detection, 8 velocity sensitive pads and air control. The Air control is the absolut highlight of the Hercules DJ Controller. Air stands for Adjustment by InfraRed, so it is a contactless control! The DJ places his or her hand flat over the infrared beam, then the controller calculates the distance between the sensor and the hand, and converts it into a gradual MIDI command. This MIDI command modulates a setting in the DJ software.
