We’ve been waiting to see a finalized version of the Tweaker in person for quite a while, and we finally got to see one on the floor at NAMM running a mapping for Traktor. The unit you see in the video is the final build and construction of the product, and it’s shipping in May.
Apparently there’s a second unit at NAMM that we’ll track down tomorrow that’s got an awesome Ableton MIDI map, but we wanted to go ahead and give you guys a chance to see our quick look with the Tweaker that we shot today. Click through to watch!

Since we finally know it is on the way in just a matter of months, are you tweaking out for the Tweaker, or will something else from NAMM help you get your fix?

Demo show casing mappings to Traktor would be great! Looks interesting at first glance…. need to see it in action.

I just found my new controller. I was looking for something completely left-field to simplify my set. This controller is it. I may grab two of these.
Yeah! Awesome!
My dream of being a DJ would become possible.
I think do to pricing behringer will kill all this controllers
I love Livid’s appeal to boutique-like components.
Looks good, solid, simple, efficient and versatile.
I thought this looked like a controller from Livid! They make some great stuff.
Interesting. Very interested in this hope to see more videos.
This is awesome for 2 reasons. First, I was always a fan of Electrix in the past, and am a huge fan of everything Livid offers now. And second, I had contacted Travis from Livid a while back looking to build a custom controller with a similar lay out, and he was kind enough to oblige me but kept saying to wait…. And I’m glad I did. This looks amazing!
