Overview

The complete starter kit for aspiring DJs to master mixing fundamentals.

Creative Control at Your Fingertips

The DJControl Inpulse 300 MK2 places mixing mastery at your fingertips. Its touch-sensitive jog wheels provide responsive track control, while eight performance pads unlock a variety of creative functions like Hot Cues, Loops, Slicer and Sampler. An array of dedicated faders and knobs simplify balancing levels and sculpting tone. Connect the Inpulse to your computer via USB and it powers on, ready to perform. For maximum flexibility, it works with both Mac and PC and includes DJUCED and Serato DJ Lite software to choose your preferred platform.

Powerful Monitoring for Accurate Mixing

Hear every nuance of your mixes through the bundled DJMonitor 42 active studio monitors. Their bi-amplified design delivers 20W of clear stereo sound so you can focus on the details. Adjustable bass, treble and volume controls let you tailor the speakers to your environment. RCA and 3.5 mm inputs provide essential connectivity for the Inpulse 300 MK2 and other line-level gear. Place the DJMonitors on stands or your workstation and you'll enjoy professional-grade monitoring as you practice your craft.

Premium Headphones for Perfect Previewing

The included HDP DJ60 headphones provide comfortable, noise-isolating monitoring. Their over-ear design blocks outside noise so you can preview tracks with perfect clarity. A padded headband and ear cups offer a secure yet comfortable fit for long mixing sessions. With a 1/8" connector, the DJ60s plug right into the headphone output on the Inpulse 300 MK2 or any standard headphone jack. They make it easy to beatmatch, set cue points and ensure tight blends between songs.
