NAMM 2013 - Numark Announces "Revolution"

Numark has recently announced "The Next Revolution in DJing". While we've seen some epic "revolutions" in our time, we can certainly say that we're excited to see what Numark has to offer. Coincidentally, that revolution is said be announced on January 24, 2013, which is the same day as the opening of the NAMM show in 2013 in Anaheim, CA.

Rumors have been circulating about the MPCDJ, which was, as of NAMM 2012, a product that was still in development. However, with the recent release of the hot-selling Pioneer DDJ-SX, we think that Numark is going to have to step it up a bit to really declare their new product a "revolution".

Our first instincts would tells us that the revolution would consist of wireless technology, which has been at the forefront of product development for Numark's sister company, Alto, with their bluetooth compatible speakers. But we still think that with the Pioneer XDJ-AERO out and about for a couple of months now, there's still going to be something stronger coming from Numark if they want to truly create a buzz at NAMM 2013.

Numark has had its share of ups and downs in 2012. While the Mixtrack Pro continued to be the best-selling DJ Controller, and the Numark NS6 and Mixdeck Quad remained wildly popular, the Numark 4TRAK seemed to have a "flopping" trait, with the price quickly dropping after only a few months of being on the market.

All in all, we're excited to see what new technology Numark has to offer, and we're sure that their lineup of new products are sure to please those in attendance at NAMM 2013.
