The role of the DJ is becoming increasingly diverse, with DJs often performing at myriad types of venues and events, from clubs and hotel lounges to fashion parties, sports events, product launches, and on livestreams. As the musical direction needed from DJs is more diverse than ever, they need to be ready to adapt to different situations. By redefining the ideal all-in-one DJ system for the constantly evolving DJ scene, the OPUS-QUAD has risen to the challenge of harmonizing playability and design.
The fresh design of the OPUS-QUAD doesn’t just look stunning, it enhances the unit’s playability too. The distinctive fan-shaped top plate is sloped and has a rounded edge at the front, making it more elegant and comfortable to rest your hands on.
With a matte black finish across its body and earth-colored slits on the front and sides of the unit, the OPUS-QUAD complements the aesthetics of any venue or space. And certain elements that are key to a musical performance are accentuated to make them easily identifiable, for example the control knobs with copper-colored markings.
To create a perfect grip for mixing and direct control of the music, the jog wheels have streamlined dimples and a textured finish on the outer and top parts respectively harmonizing playability and design. Hidden LEDs on the jogs omit a gentle glow that matches the color you’ve pre-assigned to each deck, indicating its playing status while also transmitting a feeling of sophistication to the audience when you DJ.
This new unit, with its evolved design and features, gives you more flexibility and greater control of the music so you can raise the level of your performances and create a better experience for your audience.
