The TORAIZ SP-16 is the first in Pioneer’s line-up of music production tools for DJs and producers and it’s a bit of a departure from the rest of their products that exist on the market. The unit has been released on the market this summer 2016 for a price of 1.599,00 € / £1,279.
You can use the dials to sculpt your sound – manipulating Drive, Cut Off and Resonance – and add true analogue warmth and presence.
Use the TORAIZ SP-16’s simple layout and large touch screen for producing, or use it as a standalone unit in the DJ booth to enhance performances. Just load samples, create patterns, add FX, loops, and manipulate their parameters to make your music your own.
