NAMM 2014: Decksaver is best known as the manufacturer of high quality covers for various items of DJ equipment, but now the firm is expanding its product range with a new series of digital mixing desk protectors, dubbed the Decksaver Pro series.
The first run of Decksavers will include covers for popular desks, including the Allen & Heath QU16, the PreSonus 16.4.2 and the Behringer X32. Decksaver promises the new gear will not just prevent the penetration from grime and dust during desk downtime, but also offer high-strength, flight case-friendly transit protection.
Also on offer from the firm is the Decksaver LE range, which offers light weight versions of some of Decksaver's existing popular DJ gear protectors, kicking off with a cover for the Pioneer DDJ-SB.

Three new Decksaver covers are in production, designed for the most demanding environments. They are the Allen & Heath QU16, the PreSonus 16.4.2 and the Behringer X32. The new covers are custom made from super strong polycarbonate to fit like a glove. The covers shield faders and knobs from dust and are designed to slide into flight cases for ultimate protection during transportation.
Decksaver LE
The Decksaver LE (light edition) is aimed squarely at the individual DJ market. The covers are still made from super strong polycarbonate but the weight reduction will give DJ's premium protection at an affordable price.
Quality has become a trademark of Decksaver covers. The brand is driven by this ethos to engineer solutions for the musical pioneers who need them most. The Pioneer DDJ-SB cover launches this range.
