For whatever reason, despite being available for iOS, Android, AND Windows Mobile, the EDJing app has never captured my attention. But that’s just changed dramatically with the above video. Having covered the standalone Frisk Fader and Raiden Fader seen at NAMM, the new Mixfader takes things a step further and makes the whole unit completely wireless.
Obviously having no wires means that you don’t have to worry about splitters or audio interfaces — this is wireless, something that should suggest latency, but the video shows latency-testing chirps being done flawlessly. In fact, with my eyes closed, I’d be pushed to tell that it was an iPad without knowing first.
No word on price or how this is powered, but The Next Web reports that it will be available in Autumn. That’s a full six months to wait. So feel free to order that Raiden Fader in the meantime.

How does it adhere to the table?
Superglue.
Used bubblegum ;)
Velcro
Magic?
@inbituin:disqus @DJWORX:disqus @Dizzyrocks2001:disqus Nope, R&D :)
Actually we decided to add a special adhesive material below Mixfader, and we conceived the product in aluminium for an optimal weight. We made sure the object was heavy enough to remain static during its usage! :)

Let’s say I’ll believe it when I try it. You can see the latency in the overhead shot, although that may only be the GUI. Still, I’m pretty sure the footage isn’t perfectly synced, or they used a wrong take at least once.
Long story short: want one, for scientific purposes.
Hello!
The average latency of Mixfader is 5ms :)

So the fader is cutting the sample, but the cut in/out of the beats is in the background track …that’s coming from somewhere else it looks like.
Could be misleading based on that video methinks.
Hello!
Actually everything you hear in the video comes from the same app :)

The app its talking about isn’t the same app that’s on the video
Hello!
Actually it is :) (We’ve improved it though)

Two things I dislike about wireless devices: latency and interference. If this company can actually cut the latency down to the point where it feels like using a “wired” crossfader, with at least an 8 hour operation time, and is somewhat resistant to interference, we’ll see these fly off the shelves.
I was impressed by the video, so now it means round 2 of discovery: actual field tests.
Hello!
With an average latency of 5ms (no joke), Mixfader reacts instantaneously to the crossfader movements! And the autonomy of the Mixfader is up to 10 hours :)
Finally, Mixfader uses Bluetooth protocols and therefore no interference will occur.

I so want this to be as good as the video suggests…
Hello!
We assure you that it is :)

TAKE MY MONEY PLEASE !
Holey shnikes! I thought this was going to be whack when I first saw the press release. This think is AWESOME!

Aww man!!! First LOVE THAT PETE ROCK REMIX OF JUMP AROUND TO DEATH!!!!! second the video clearly shows one turntable on the screen so he is only scratching to a song being played somewhere else…someone’s comment states the the actual app is different than what is shown so we do need to see that in action! But this looks good! But then again they had me at the start of the song LOL!!!!!
Hello!
Actually the second song is played on the same device (and on the same app), it would be totally useless if you wouldn’t be able to play two songs at the same time :)
Moreover, it is the Mixfader dedicated app (of course we improved it since).
