Deals of the Week: Behringer DeepMind 6X
Until 20 November, you can get 27% off the Behringer DeepMind 6X polyphonic analogue synthesizer. Inspired by the classic design of the Roland Juno series, the DeepMind 6X expands on the foundation of the 6-voice (2 osc per voice) subtractive engine by adding in quite a few modern twists of its own.
The modulation capabilities of the DeepMind X6 are very impressive, with an 8-channel mod matrix, two LFOs, and three envelopes per voice. What’s more, you can add even more expression to your sound with the built-in digital effects engine, with a range of processors from tc electronic and Klark Teknik.
Also, with a 32-step pattern sequencer, arpeggiator, and chord modes, there are many different ways to create sounds with the DeepMind 6X. So it’s easy to combine it with other electronic instruments or jam more traditionally with your band. Overall, it’s an amazing instrument for the price and a great buy if you’re looking to get your first synth.
Deals of the Week: Hercules Inpulse 500
Get 8% off the Hercules Inpulse 500 DJ controller, with an extensive knob-per-function interface for Serato DJ and DJUCED. On each of the decks, you have access to vinyl and slip modes, as well as the quantize function and the loop in/out triggers. When linked up with the software, this gives the Inpulse 500 a similar range of functions to the industry-standard Pioneer DJ systems you’ll find in most venues.
The Inpulse 500 is bus-powered via USB and provides inputs for a microphone via TRS, as well as stereo RCA and minijack aux inputs. Besides the headphone output, there are stereo TRS and RCA outputs, so you can connect to any amplifier or speaker system.
Overall, the Inpulse 500 is an ideal starter tool for learning about DJing from home. It provides so much functionality in terms of the range of controls at an affordable price point, and it’s easy to set up for practicing your sets and trying out mixing combinations with your new tracks wherever you are.
