There's a moment every DJ knows. You're deep in a set, the room is locked in, and you hear it in your head: a sound that would be perfect right now, a twist that would take this track somewhere it's never been. But your hands are tied. Two decks. A mixer. You can choose what plays next, but the music itself? That's already been decided. Someone else made it. You're just delivering it.
The RMX-Ignite exists to kill that feeling.
AlphaTheta's new effector and sampler, the first successor to the legendary RMX-1000 in over thirteen years, turns the DJ booth into a place where music gets made, not just played. Tracks become raw material, and the set you're hearing couldn't have existed before tonight because it's being built in the moment.
The hardware itself feels like an invitation to experiment. Three oversized levers beg to be thrown, each one unleashing instant transformations like Echo, Reverb, Reverse, and Stretch that can target the lows, mids, or highs independently. Below them, three big knobs sweep through Tape Echo, Drive, and Filter effects. You can run six effects at once across frequency bands, sculpting a track with precision.
The real unlock is the sampler: Four pads, 20 built-in sounds to start, or load your own from USB. Process them separately from everything else with dedicated effects. Pitch them, filter them, or let them decay into ghosts.
AlphaTheta's RMX-Ignite rebuilds the audio architecture from scratch with 96kHz/64-bit processing and studio-grade ESS converters, tuning everything in actual clubs and chasing clarity and punch. For a full overview in the video below and more info, go to the AlphaTheta website.
