The next generation of Pacemaker, the revolutionary, pocket sized DJ system. The new version of this unique, hand held music player will feature auto beatmatch, which, at the touch of a button, will allow anyone to mix tracks like a DJ. With a 60GB hard drive and a host of other new innovations, Tonium have designed the new Pacemaker to allow all music lovers to creatively interact with their music like never before

While the hardware remains the same, the new Pacemaker user interface has been completely reworked, making it more user-friendly and highly intuitive. Alongside the auto beatmatch function is an on-screen 'beat graph' giving a visual representation of the beats in tracks that are playing, making mixing records so easy that anyone can do it within minutes! The music library has also been vastly improved with fast scroll, improved track list filters and crates functions. Further additions and improvements include timestretching (master tempo) and Key, allowing you to change the key of the track and avoid any key clashes when you mix! Further new effects; Crush, Wah, Delay and Trans (as well as the ability to customise the touch pad, arranging the array of effects wherever you want).

Tonium will make this new interface available as a 100% free firmware update to all those who already own a Pacemaker, meaning that once purchased, you will never own an outdated device. The 60 GB hard drive can store 15,000 tracks and will work with all file types including MP3, WAV, FLAC, AAC and OGG.
