So, what is this thing? The SliderKut is, according to DJ Fong Fong’s (the equipment’s creator) kickstarter page, “a linear scratching and mixing device for DJs.” It’s compatible with Serato, Traktor, and most of the popular DJ software.

The SliderKut is meant to be an alternative to the turntable. Although, Fong Fong is quick to say that he doesn’t want it to replace the turntable completely. Think about those times when you’ve had to haul a heavy turntable or two to some venue where you couldn’t just pull up and park at the back door. That’s when Fong Fong believes there’s a place for his SlderKut.
