THE NEW WAY TO DJ

Touch DJ is a completely new way to create stunning DJ mixes whenever you like. You can touch and feel your tracks, move around them, scratch them, EQ them, loop them, and mix them even without prelistening.

SPLIT MODE

As an alternative for the users who really need to prelisten to the tracks, Touch DJ also offers a second “Split” mode of mixing which requires the usage of a special L/R splitting adapter.

EXTRA FEATURES

Among extra features – LP filter FX for each track, vinyl Spin and Break effects, onboard sampler with 3 sample slots (accepts .WAV files) and the ability to record samples via the microphone. As a bonus, Touch DJ is shipped with 25 dance tracks provided by DanceMusicHub.com so that you will be able to start jamming away instantly.

IMPORTANT!

Currently it is impossible to get the music from the iTunes music library. This is a technical restriction which cannot be resolved. Touch DJ uses its own MP3 library. To get your own music into Touch DJ: use Wi-Fi (slow) or companion programs (fast) available for PC (Win) and Mac OSX. Contact us at support@amidio.com if you need any help regarding getting your own music into Touch DJ.

Independent filmmaker Steve Ellington has released the first music video shot entirely with the iPhone 3G[s] and its 3MP video camera. The video depicts the plight of a little wind up robot and its attempt to stay relavent among the growing technological world. The video is set to music by XFYA whose members include Ellington, Shaun Haber, Dave Lanni, and Sean Sepulveda.

Ellington makes use of the spot focus available with the new iPhone 3G[s] camera. He accentuates many scenes by panning from an out of focus background to the in focus robot. The quality of the video is not the best in the world but has its own character.

With the huge insurgence of YouTube uploads since the release of the iPhone 3G[s], I expect to see a lot of more videos made with the device.

The Automatic Filmmaker

The Pirate Bay (TPB) has been acquired by Global Gaming Factory X, a gaming company that provides cyber cafe management software that targets advertising to its users, for a reported $8 million.  Their plan for TPB is to monetize the site with advertising and pay content providers.

This move seems similar to the purchase of Napster, the original file sharing site. Napster had its moment in the sun with the highly publicized feud with Metallica. Napster has since been bought and sold and its customer usage can only be described as dismal at best.

TPB being bought, by basically an advertising agency, has users worried of what is to become of the site. Charging users would negate the premise behind why the site started, freedom of information and openness of the net, essentially changing The Pirate Bay to The Banker Bay.

From TPB blog:

A lot of people are worried. We’re not and you shouldn’t be either!

If the new owners will screw around with the site, nobody will keep using it. That’s the biggest insurance one can have that the site will be run in the way that we all want to. And – you can now not only share files but shares with people. Everybody can indeed be the owner of The Pirate Bay now. That’s awesome and will take the heat of us.

The recent lawsuits and court trials have taken a toll on TPB. Perhaps TPB, run by Gottfrid Svartholm (anakata) and Fredrik Neij (TiAMO), believe they cannot take the site any further and believe they can fight their cause in a better way.

The profits from the sale will go into a foundation that is going to help with projects about freedom of speech, freedom of information and the openess of the nets. I hope everybody will help out in that and realize that this is the best option for all. Don’t worry – be happy!

If The Pirate Bay turns into the now Napster I will be sad to see it go. I have never downloaded any illegal torrents myself *wink wink*, but I feel for all the people out there that do use the site.
