“DJ Rana Sobhany is changing the face of modern DJing using the new Apple iPad. She got her idea to use iPads instead of turntables while she was waiting outside of a New York City Apple store at two o’clock in the morning on the day the iPad was to be released.
“Sobhany first thought of different ways to DJ while playing with her iPhone before the iPad was released. In an interview with Wired.com, Sobhany admits, ‘I just started playing with some of the music apps that were available for the iPhone, specifically the IK Multimedia GrooveMaker apps.’ She went on to say, ‘I got really inspired by the basic functionality of these apps and I started thinking about ways to incorporate iPad into a live performance. The more I thought about it, the more I realized that it was entirely possible to build a set around solely iPad music software and applications’”
