Ion outs its Lightning-compatible iDJ 2 Go Plus, we take a close look

http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/01/idj2goplusmedia.jpg Cupertino’s Lightning connector has put a few DJ peripherals out of the running for new iOS devices, but Ion’s iDJ 2 Go Plus is up for the task. The portable rig supports Apple’s new connector, features two scratch wheels, a crossfader, a handful of backlit buttons and a collection of knobs for music junkies to do their thing. As for software, the hardware can take advantage of the firm’s free iDJ 2 Go app or other software, such as Algoriddim’s Djay. As of now, details on price and availability are scarce.
Minimalist DJs can mix with the outfit’s Scratch 2 Go: a collection of knobs, two turntables and a crossfader that attach to an iPad via suction cups. According to Ion, the low-key kit also functions with popular DJ apps in addition to their own offering. Price and availability details are nowhere in sight, but you can catch a hands-on with both setups in the bordering galleries.Gallery: iDJ 2 Go Plus with Lightning hands-on
