Two exclusive modes for a better understanding of the 4-beat bar and count the beats in a song:
- Beat 1 Program: the LEDs light up red with the first beat of the main track and blue with the following beats, turning off between each beat.
- Beat 2 Program: the LEDs light up in red with the first beat of the main song and blue with the following beats, without turning off.
Serato DJ Lite
Serato DJ Lite (download) has everything you need to learn how to mix and scratch. Hercules’ ambition to bring Djing to the masses is also reflected in the fun new lighting modes that help teach about four-four time and how to count the beats. Five of these lighting modes are controlled directly by Serato DJ Lite.
Hercules DJMonitor 32
A pair of Hercules DJMonitor 32 active monitor speakers for home mixing. These completely redesigned 2 x 15 watts RMS speakers with offset tweeters offer a clearer sound and a more noticeable stereo effect in the space.
Their compact size makes them easy to use on a desk in a bedroom or as the DJ's monitor speakers at a party.
Hercules HDP DJ M40.2 Headphones
The HDP DJ M40.2 headphones are the latest addition to the Hercules product line. Their simple and effective design and three key features make these headphones essential for any budding DJ who wants to get started mixing:
Efficient noise insulation: the closed-back ear-cups and wide, comfortable ear pads keep out ambient noise. The DJ's hearing is therefore not disturbed by the outside world.
Perfect mobility: these practical headphones swivel round, for easy one-ear monitoring and easy folding. Ideal for taking anywhere with you.
High sensitivity ensures a high level of audio output for pre-listening in any environment.
The Hercules DJStarter Kit is available NOW at the recommended retail price of €179.99/£149.99
