![]() Prefer me to talk you through this? In this video, a recording of a live show from the Digital DJ Tips YouTube channel, I talk you through everything in this article, and we take questions from our community on the subject. That said, it is also great for any kind of DJing, with good scratch performance, industry-leading live stem extraction, powerful mapping capabilities, and a host of other features that – for those who care to dig deep – often surprise and delight users. It has a loyal user base, with a particularly strong following among mobile DJs, video DJs and karaoke DJs. In fact, it is the first piece of DJ software I personally used extensively, way back in 2004. That’s still not completely impossible, but given that April has come and gone, we’re into May with no Apple event announced, and getting ever closer to WWDC next month, the smart money is now on an announcement in the developer keynote.VirtualDJ is a long-standing and popular piece of DJ software. We first heard reports about a 15-inch MacBook Air almost a year ago now, with subsequent suggestions of an April or May release. Since almost all MacBook Pro users are buying the machine because they need the power, we’re unlikely to see too many of them choosing instead to buy a 15-inch MacBook Air. Very few people are going to be willing to pay two-and-a-half times the price just to get a larger screen. If they want to boost the screen size to 16-inches, the cheapest MacBook Pro they can buy will cost them at least $2499. Today, for example, someone can buy a 13-inch MacBook Air from $999. ![]() But as the MBP has grown increasingly expensive, the risk of this has substantially reduced – as has the likelihood of Pro buyers downgrading. With a significant number of people buying a MacBook Pro purely for the larger screen size, Apple was likely worried about cannibalizing those sales. A writer may have their notes open as they write (if they haven’t yet heard of Scrivener!). A keen cook might have a recipe open as they compile a shopping list. A student might have a website open as they write a paper. You don’t have to be using pro apps to benefit from this. Being able to work with two windows side by side is an obvious one. There are many reasons people might want a large-screened MacBook Air. I argued that there are a lot of people who want the productivity benefits of a larger screen without needing the power of a MacBook Pro. My situation, however, means that I don’t need that power, but I would like the 16-inches of screen real estate. If you need the power that the 16-inch MacBook Pro brings, then it’s a great option. The 16-inch MacBook Pro is a great machine, but weighing in at 4.8 pounds means it’s noticeable in your backpack. This would be the ultimate portable MacBook for me, and probably many other people. I came across a tweet from 2012 in my Timehop feed this week where I declared my intent to buy a 15-inch MacBook Air assuming one would exist eventually.Ĭhance Miller agreed, saying that it would be the ultimate MacBook for him and many others. ![]() Indeed, Zac Hall first said more than a decade ago that this would be his dream machine, and he’d buy one back as soon as Apple made one. We’ve been calling for a larger-screened MacBook Air for years now. Gurman now expects the new machine to be launched at WWDC, and it would certainly make for a solid keynote headline … Our calls for a 15-inch MacBook Air While both Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman and display analyst Ross Young originally expected Apple to announce the upcoming 15-inch MacBook Air at a spring event, that’s looking less and less likely now that we’re into May – and WWDC is approaching.
