How to be a DJ with Your iPad
How to be a DJ with Your iPad is a post from Chris PirilloRana Sobhany could very well be the World’s first iPad DJ. According to Scoble, she “rocked the iPad Dev Camp” in Silicon Valley last weekend. She’s been a DJ for quite a while now, spinning and grooving with the latest technology.Rana’s sound mixer is connected to the iPad via a standard mini-jack. There are no computers or synthesizers being used. She’s using two separate iPads, and doing a lot of crossover work between the two. She has a very standard USB pre-amp which is connected to her computer in order to push the audio out so that we can hear it. All of her equipment together cost her about $700.00. It’s a simple and easy-to-use setup.All of the apps she’s using were built before the iPad even came out. This makes her more excited to see what developers may have up their sleeve now that the device is on the market.Rana’s Destroy The Silence experiment is attempting to find out if the iPad can revolutionize music creation using no laptops or synths. She simply uses two iPads, an iPhone and apps right out of the App Store.Given what she is working with and the price point she’s used, what Rana is doing is pretty dang amazing.
