Alesis iMultimix 8 USB Mixer + Audio Interface w/ Universal Dock for iPod
sale: $279.00 lab price: ~~$299.00~~ available: yes item #: mx-214	OVERVIEW Alesis' iMultiMix 8 USB is a sturdy, compact all-in-one tabletop mixer and recorder with USB connectivity, 8 channels, 100 studio grade 28-bit digital effects, a built-in limiter to avoid distorted recordings and an integrated iPod dock with control wheel transport controls for... expand review fast, easy direct-to-iPod recording. This is the first in the first interface/mixer we've carried to feature integrated iPod control and recording capability. FEATURES The iMultiMix 8 USB inherits many of the same features as the standard MultiMix 8 USB. It features USB connectivity which makes the iMultiMix both an input mixer and an audio interface, 8 channels (with 3-band EQ per channel) - (4) high-gain mic inputs with phantom power, balanced 1/4" inputs, 1/4" outputs, 1/4" monitor output, and headphone out, and 100 easily accessible effects including reverbs, delays, chorus, flanging, and pitch. The big addition here is the integrated iPod dock. With it, you are able to record your sets direct to iPod and easily transfer directly to iTunes with no special drivers needed. The iMultiMix 8 also allows playback from your iPod for easy integration of your iPod in live performances. Steinberg Cubase LE (the limited version of Cubase) is also included. OUR OPINION The iMultiMix 8 is rugged + portable and will serve as an excellent input mixer and USB interface, but with the addition of dock and direct-to-iPod recording, Alesis made a good thing even better. DJs and producers will benefit from an easy way to get ultra clean recordings from gigs, practices, etc., plus bands will also benefit from a way to record several inputs at one time and the ability of adding a backing track through the iPod playback feature. -the mgmnt

Newcleus Jam On It 12"
Sunnyview format: 12" lab price: $7.00 available: restocking item #: lp-3540	quick audio picks: 1 2 Staple electro funk jam here in it's original 12" format. If you ever tried to break or pop (or even just wave or worm) back in the day, "Jam On It(1)" was probably the first thing you put on right after "Planet... expand review Rock." It's that classic. With the signature "wikki-wikki" chipmunk style voices, the funked out bass, tough electro drums and 80's synth action - this one's sure to bring out your inner b-boy. Don't sleep on the flipside either with the instrumental(2), which isn't even a "true" instrumental (still has the chipmunk-style adlibs) and actually sounds nothing like the OG vocal version but still rocks it. -snackmaster

Hollertronix #8 EP
Mad Decent format: EP lab price: $9.00 available: yes item #: lp-3541	quick audio picks: 1 2 3 4 5 6 A major shake-up in the Hollertronix saga! Not only has the series jumped ship from Money Studies over to Mad Decent, but Diplo has handed over the production reins to fellow Philadelphian DJ Sega and Baltimore's DJ Blaqstarr. The Venom-style logo on... expand review the label is no mistake either -- just like on his Rockstars vs. Clubheadz mixtape, Sega flips the most unimaginable nu-metal and rock tracks into some HEAVY club thumpers. As one who always had a soft spot for the original, Sega's flip of Papa Roach's "Last Resort(1)" definitely hits the spot. (The "don't give a-- WHAT?!" with Lil Jon tossed in is perfecto.) Also sick is "Bodies Hit The Floor(2)," which blends the guitar licks from AC/DC's "Thunderstruck" with Drowning Pool's ultimate meathead rock anthem. Along with more metal on "Dig(3)," we also get the hype "Fuck Um!(4)," a little Busta on "Woo-Hah!(5)" and Blaqstarr with a very excellent (and very Blaqstarr-y) edit of "Smack My Bitch Up(6)." Highly recommended. -Larri Byrd
