Behringer says "the DJ industry is about to change forever" - and the Klark Teknik Anima is why. It's a four-channel standalone DJ unit with a built-in screen and computer, open hardware, and the freedom to run whatever software you want, for a promised $300-400. Here's what we know, what it might look like (we've made an AI mock-up from the prototype photos), and the big questions it raises.
