Numark Industries, leader in Disc Jockey (DJ) technology, has announced the first-ever iDJ Mixer for iPod portable music players. The iDJ enables users to seamlessly integrate two iPods into a portable and user-friendly DJ system. With its sleek and cutting-edge design, Numark's iDJ is the perfect iPod companion that will transform any music lover into the life of the party.

Numark's ground-breaking iDJ is specifically designed to provide a simple and inviting "plug and play" approach to becoming a DJ. In addition to being an easy-to-use DJ Mixer, the iDJ also works as a basic playback device and dual charging/docking station.

Technical specifications include large navigation controls, lighted console, 3-band equalizer, and phono, line and USB inputs for maximum external connectivity. This full-featured mixer with dual iPod docking stations incorporates a microphone input and a headphone output to complete the mixing experience -- also a perfect tool for creating Podcasts on the fly.

Consumer electronics retailers can now order this new technology, and it will be available to the public in October 2005. According to Numark's CEO, Jack O'Donnell, "We couldn't be more excited to bring the art of DJing to the consumer market. Since almost everyone carries an iPod in their pocket, the new iDJ makes it easy to use their iPod as professional DJ gear."

Mr. O'Donnell continued, "For college students and other iPod enthusiasts, this compact mixing system is a natural extension of the iPod platform that makes enjoying music with others that much easier."
