Numark announced the KMX01 DJ Station at Summer NAMM 2005. Featuring dual CD+G drives with an integrated mixer, the KMX01 is an all-in-one solution for DJs and clubs to instantly add Karaoke to their entertainment mix.
Providing three microphone inputs with tone control, two composite video switched outputs for graphics, +- 12% pitch control with pitch bend wheel, balanced output, master EQ, and stereo/mono control, the KMX01 is the ideal tool for mixing Karaoke CD+G and regular audio CDs, and represents the only all inclusive system of its kind available. Simply connect the KMX01 to a sound reinforcement system and a video monitor, add a couple of microphones, and the party is ready to begin.
The new KMX01 makes it easy to incorporate visuals as part of the Karaoke fun. By incorporating dual CD+G drives, DJs can include their own image files and build stunning picture shows to accompany their music tracks (CD+G media required). A pair of composite video outputs are tied to a crossfader that automatically selects the output source, creating seamless transitions from one visual to another that facilitates easy presentation on two video monitors.
Featuring three microphone inputs with tone control capability, the KMX01 makes it a snap to keep the entertainment running smoothly. The DJ's microphone input is configured with an XLR/quarter-inch Combo connector that accepts a broad range of microphones. For the performers, there are two microphone inputs with quarter-inch connectors--making it easy to get one Karaoke performer ready while the current performer remains in the spotlight. In addition to tone controls for contouring the microphone's sound to one's liking, the KMX01 also provides echo effect control on the performer's
microphone inputs for adding that extra element of professionalism to one's sound. For fine-tuning the overall performance mix, a master EQ section is also provided.
In addition to its three microphone inputs, Numark's KMX01 adds still greater versatility by providing external inputs for two line level signals that are switchable with two phono signals--making it a breeze to incorporate samplers, turntables, and other electronic equipment. This user-friendly mixer also provides 12% pitch bend capability via its pitch bend/jog wheel. For programming one's music sets, the KMX01 supports true continuous playback and is also track sequence programmable. And to ensure each performance goes smoothly, this outstanding mixer provides stereo/mono control, balanced output capability, and a fader start button for precise song starts.
Suggested retail price: $699. The KMX01 will be available Q4 of 2005.
