Torq DJ software, developed by M-Audio’s SynchroScience division, is a dual-platform application that allows you to cue, beat-match and mix a variety of digital audio file formats, including MP3, AIFF, WAV, WMA and AAC. Included with all M-Audio SynchroScience products*, this easy-to-use application automatically configures itself to work with compatible hardware the very first time you boot it up. You can access the power of Torq via mouse, keyboard, MIDI controller or control vinyl/CDs. And unlike traditional DJ set-ups where you’re forced to carry around heavy crates of records or CDs, Torq uses the digital files on your computer’s hard drive and provides access to them through a quickly searchable database—it can even interface directly with your iTunes library for truly effortless setup. As if that’s not enough, Torq supports third-party VST effect plug-ins and includes both a dedicated 16-cell sampler and performance recorder.

Start Spinning Tonight

Working with DJ software used to require going through a painstaking process of set-up and prep work before you could even play a track. That all changed with the introduction of Torq. Designed for both Mac and PC, the program is engineered to work the first time you load the software. Just fire up Torq, connect your compatible M-Audio interface, and the program takes care of the rest.

Get It in the Mix—All of It

Torq allows you to cue, beat-match and mix a wide variety of digital audio file formats, including MP3, AIFF, WAV, WMA and AAC. The program organizes all of your digital files into an easily searchable database, enabling you to pull up the perfect track or change up your set in an instant. You can even access your entire iTunes library through Torq, so you can truly have all of your music at your fingertips.

Wheels of Virtual Steel

Torq organizes everything you need to DJ into a single, easy-to-use workspace. The program has two virtual decks where you can load, cue and play back digital files—it will even automatically beat-match the files the instant you load them. And just like a traditional DJ setup, Torq includes an integrated two-channel mixer with three-band EQs, level controls, headphone cueing and a crossfader. But unlike hardware, Torq supports the vast world of third-party VST effects plug-ins and allows you to create recallable snapshots of your favorite EQ, effect and mixer settings

Live Remix Machine

With Torq, you’re never limited to just basic beat-matching and crossfading between tracks. With a 16-cell, tempo-synced sampler, easy looping capabilities and multiple cue points, you can chop up a song—on the fly—and re-order, remix and extend any section you want, all while staying perfectly in time. With the option of adding multiple effects, you can turn a song into a completely original piece of music and even record it on the spot with the integrated performance recorder. And for the DAW-savvy DJ, you can route the output of Torq to any ReWire-compatible host application like Pro Tools M-Powered or Ableton Live and share synchronization information between the programs.

Take Control

Torq isn’t just a point-and-click affair. Rather than forcing you to DJ with just a mouse, Torq can also be controlled via keyboard, MIDI controller—like the Oxygen 8 v2 or Axiom 25—or special control vinyl/CDs. So if you’re eager to embrace the world of computer-based DJing, but not ready to give up the feel of your favorite turntable or CD player, you’re in luck. With a compatible audio interface like the M-Audio Conectiv, and one or more control vinyl/CDs, you can control digital files loaded in Torq with a traditional DJ setup. Torq includes multiple operating modes that can make playback behave like a traditional turntable or a DJ CD player—and there is even a hybrid mode that blends the strengths of both vinyl and CD-style control.
