Hercules has announced a new entry-level controller for PC and Mac, the DJ Control AIR, which has a built-in infra-red control surface allowing the DJ to manipulate his performance with his hands hovering over the unit.
It also boasts eight big progressive performance touch pads, visual beat counter, built-in audio interface, and large jogwheels which appear similar to those the company uses in its higher-end controllers.
The unit is squarely aimed at amateurs, coming in at €149 (around US$200) and only having an 1/8″ headphones jack as its main output, but it packs an awful lot in for such a low price. It also seems to be running DJ software that we can’t recognise from the photo runs DJ software we’ve never herd of before, called DJUCED.

So do you know any more about this? We cobbled this together from a short Spanish press release we received five minutes ago, but we’re out of here for the evening! Any more details gratefully received…
