Union Audio orbit.2 LE

The Union Audio orbit.2 LE is a two-channel, high-end analog rotary DJ mixer and the entry-level model in the renowned orbit series. With its robust construction and high-quality components, it offers DJs exceptional sound quality, versatility, and outstanding value for money. Each channel features a separate phono preamp and line input, allowing seamless integration with both turntables and digital sources. Furthermore, a precise Alps rotary control, a variable high-pass filter, and a flexible FX section ensure maximum sonic creativity. The clearly laid out master section with separate level controls for master, booth, and aux return, as well as the precise, illuminated VU meters, allow perfect control over the output signal at all times. This sophisticated design is rounded off by a powerful headphone amplifier with split cue and cue/mix functions, meeting all the needs of professional DJs.
