MegaSeg - Products - MIDI Controllers

Grab a controller or wireless remote for a tactile, hands‐on feel. MegaSeg is fully MIDI‐compatible and works with most controllers and remotes, including the Apple Remote. Below are some popular options.

MegaSeg works great with Apple’s new wireless Magic Trackpad for visual beat syncing using MegaSeg's new Wave Viewer. This input device supports scrolling inertia for that realistic momentum feel. If your MacBook's trackpad feels a bit cramped, or your desktop mouse is in need of replacement, this is a must have.

With Numark's DJ2GO you can throw your entire rig into a backpack and have room to spare. DJ2GO is a portable controller that allows you to control MegaSeg (our latest version includes a custom DJ2GO preset), weighs just 13 oz., and provides a familiar layout that includes two platters, a crossfader, pitch and level controls as well as Deck A, Deck B, Master and Headphone gain controls.

Numark’s Mixtrack is a controller in a compact chassis and the latest MegaSeg includes a custom Mixtrack preset. The familiar layout works with MegaSeg's decks and a mixer controls for a easy hands on feel. The center surface includes a mixer section with crossfader, line faders, deck EQs, and more advanced controls for looping and effects. Mixtrack connects to your Mac as a class-compliant USB device so it requires no software drivers to work, and USB powers it so you won't need an external supply.

The Denon DN-HC4500 USB-MIDI controller is a perfect match for MegaSeg, with support of its backlit buttons, VFC‐text readout display, and built‐in high‐quality USB audio outputs, this controller has it all. MegaSeg includes a custom MIDI preset too — just plug‐n‐play.

From Hercules, the new DJ Console RMX and Mk4 are full featured table‐top style controllers for MegaSeg, including High/Mid/Low EQ, Deck volume, Preview/Cue, memory positions, BPM match button, Looping, Advance button, Pitch slider, Pitch bender, FF/REW, Fine‐tune cueing, Cue/Stop, Play, Stutter Pause, and Crossfader. MegaSeg comes pre‐configured to work with this controller via MIDI over USB. They also include built‐in audio outputs for preview/cue and main playback. (MegaSeg is also compatible with older Hercules DJ Consoles.)

The Behringer BCD3000 B‐Control is similar in function to the controllers above, but with a more recording/mixing board (desk) style. It includes a USB connection for digital audio, as well as RCA connectors for analog audio.

The USB Trigger from Sensorium Embedded is a digital input device that can emulate keyboard buttons from external relay triggers. If you'd like to control MegaSeg with buttons on your desktop or a broadcast control board, the USB Trigger was designed specifically for MegaSeg to handle the job. Connect your own buttons, switches, or relays to trigger MegaSeg's keyboard shortcuts. It features 24 inputs, all via a single USB connection to your Mac. (Use with USB Overdrive to convert signals to keyboard shortcuts.)

The MIDI Solutions Footswitch Controller allows you to connect any external relay to control MegaSeg, such as triggering a segue to the next song in the playlist. This box uses a traditional MIDI port, so you will need a MIDI-to-USB converter such as the EMU Xmidi 1x1 USB MIDI Interface.

The Contour Design ShuttlePRO V.2 is a controller with assignable buttons and a pro jog and shuttle wheel. It’s perfect for controlling MegaSeg’s cue and full mixer functionality. Download a preset file here.

Kensington’s Expert Mouse is an incredible trackball that makes it much easier to access all of MegaSeg’s abilities without scooting around a typical mouse. This pool‐sized trackball makes it easy to control your cursor, and you’ll love the weight and feel. The four buttons can be assigned as shortcuts to any keystroke or function.

The Apple Remote is a wireless IR‐based remote control that works seamlessly with MegaSeg. (Any Apple Remote compatible remote work just as well, including the original white plastic Apple Remote). This remote only works when facing the IR receiver on the computer's front. Other IR remotes such as the KeySpan below include an external IR receiver that can be facing any direction.

The Keyspan URM‐15T from KeySpan is a wireless IR remote control with a good range and additional buttons that can be set up to control more functions if desired.
