How I PLAY: Richie Hawtin MODEL 1 DJ Setup

PLAYdifferently MODEL 1 - Richie Hawtin reveals his latest DJ setup, offering a vision of how the digital and analogue worlds merge to create another level of new and exciting sound.

MODEL 1 offers 6 full featured stereo channels, 2 stereo Send & Return channels, 2 Mix outputs, and Master & Booth EQ. Features include a per channel Hybrid Filter EQ & Input overdrive control, Master Resonant Filter (with both HPF and LPF controls), a Dual headphone Cue system, Tascam DB25 connector system, Dual Mixer linking capability and a Dual external PSU option.

"It's time to accept that DJing has come a long long way over the past 25 years and introduce a Mixer that lives up to the expectations of the modern electronic music performer. A mixer more akin to an instrument with intuitive controls, uncompromising quality, features and flexible connectivity that can unlock a new wave of creativity.”

Love it. Useful (essential for me) additions to the Mk2 would be 1) full kill on the filters & isolator; and 2) a crossfader.

I LOVE my new MODEL 1. It really is worth the cost. Thank you.

Great mixer Ritchie. A real game changer. It is over my budget tho. if i could afford it, i'd buy it today :/

[RodrigoToledo-dp]

awesome, I wonder how is he controlling traktor?

[mikedubz]

I know for a fact this is the greatest dj mixer/tool ever made!
Hands down.
My only issue is the slippery fader caps and the fact is gas no Master insert in order to incorporate a Master isolator!
I mean you can route it thru the mains but idealy its best to have it going thru the Master insert so that you can use it Mixing in headphones!
Not everyone has a center stage that could Play loud at any time of the Day so Mixing in headphone for live stress is handy ofcourse you can sd a mixer and Play in ear thru that but such an awesome piece of gear and no Master insert is a fail.
Maybe the mk2 version could have that feature
Also the fader curve is off a bit to agreesive not linear enough.
Maybe the feature switch from the xone 96 could be implemented so that the User could pick between normal / medium/ aggressive.
The Master inserts
And de upfader curve switch
And you have the greatest dj mixer ever built.
Hands down.

I mean, he’s a DJ using the Metropolix. That’s already self explanatory, what a genius

Basically, all DJ-ing is painting, but with sound rather than with paint. It is fascinating to watch it happening in front of your eyes, or ears rather.

[adamtricky]

cheers, made it easier to understand that mixer

[eyesintheskies]

I respect him most for not changing his haircut after ‘brüno’ hit the scene 🎬

Hello! I have 2 XONE K2 controllers and would like to buy a Model1 mixer. How can I connect the Model1 mixer to the computer or laptop so that I can use the mixer's sound card?😁👍

[BobitinOfficial]

What a bomb at the start of the video, great Richie

[willemvanwanrooij]

Hi! Does Richie use VST effects via the Model1?

[chrisrhome]

I play by shoving speakers onto my fans. Just like Richie!

[slysquare]

How does he strip layers of songs to create new sounds?

[onemorechris]

Techno DJs seem to favour a lot hardware apparently to create unique one offs on the fly, yet when I hear something good, Shazam it and listen back, the track is pretty much played clean. Seems overly complex and over the top but whatever gets you through I guess

[dmcneary]

Is Richie Hawtin wearing black Uggs? Asking for a friend.

[slkmic]

i just wanted you to play music at my kid's 8 yr old birthday party, not repaint the Sistine
