One of the stands that I wish I’d had more time to spend at was the Pacemaker DJ stand – what on earth is that you ask? No, it’s not a solution to deliver music to those people who happen to have a pacemaker fitted! Instead it’s all about this little chappie:

Ever had two decks in your hand?!

This little bit of tech-funk is two digital music players and a mixer, all in a form factor you can carry around! Kerazee!

I thought Pioneer revolutionised DJing years ago with their CDJ decks, but it would seem that Pacemaker might be the future – if this thing is half as tactile as it needs to be for proper beat-matching, then it should be awesome – As I said, gutted I couldn’t get more time with it – but I am sure our paths will cross in the future!

About The Author

Ben Robinson

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
