Hercules Announces the Launch of New High-Performance DJ Controller - DJControl Inpulse 500
Hercules has announced the launch of a new DJ controller - Hercules DJControl Inpulse 500.
The new DJControl Inpulse 500 controller, comes with both Serato DJ Lite and DJUCED, Hercules’ in-house mixing software. “We have been working alongside Hercules since 2015, most recently on the DJControl Starlight, which in 2019 became a super popular, portable controller,” said Nick Maclaren, Chief Strategy Officer from Serato. “We’re thrilled to partner with the team again on the DJControl Inpulse 500, a controller that lets young DJs take the first steps towards public performances. We have also adapted our software to integrate Hercules’ unique, award-winning learn-to-DJ hardware features so that users who choose to mix on Serato can go into their first performance with the confidence they need.”
Although the DJControl Inpulse 500 features Learn-to-DJ guides and DJUCED’s AI-driven Intelligent Music Assistant, it also boasts multiple features: a professional design with a sturdy metal backing plate, four extendable/retractable non-slip feet to elevate mixing, a hardware mixer for the audio inputs, a dedicated Filter/FX area with awesome effects, two large jog wheels with touch detection for scratching, 16 backlit rubber RGB pads, and helpful light guides for mixing.
- Ready-to-mix audio options: Powered by USB, DJs can plug in their smartphone or a media player via dual RCA auxiliary input or a 3.5mm stereo mini-jack as a back-up or as an extra source of music.
- Filter FX: This pro performance feature lets DJs push their mix customization to new levels and personalize their sets with effects available with Serato and DJUCED.
- Solid retractable feet: With folding feet underneath that glow when extended this unique feature protects the controller from spilled drinks during performances.
- Build quality: built-in Velvet Sound DSP from AKM for processing audio inputs and outputs.
- Streaming support: mix millions of tracks with TIDAL and SoundCloud Go+ integrated within Serato and with Beatport LINK, Beatsource LINK and Qobuz integrated within DJUCED.
The DJControl Inpulse 500 offers a portable, professional look and feel, performance-ready controller that helps first-timers look cool and perform with confidence.
