Dec 12, 2018 If you're into collaborating, Ableton Link is also onboard, letting you sync the clock with other compatible devices on your network. Djay for iOS is available at the App Store today and the Pro. Perform with the Power of iPad. IDJ Pro from Numark is a professional DJ controller that expands your iPad’s interface, seamlessly integrating with Algoriddim's djay app for iPad (sold separately) to form a completely new DJ experience. Featuring a sleek brushed-aluminum casing, iDJ Pro is equipped with all the professional controls you need, plus some design features and capabilities that.
Algoriddim's new djay for iOS has moved to a subscription model, and includes beat-matching, A12 Bionic machine learning, plus iPad Pro USB-C support.Djay 2 Download For Windows
Loops in Algodiddim's new day for iOS
Algoriddim has been making djay for iPad, iPhone, and Mac for eight years, winning Apple Design Awards and being featured in Apple Keynotes along the way. The new version is a unified one across all of Apple's iOS hardware, with a bunch of new features added, and older ones improved.
djay classic mode on iPhone
The app launches in Classic Mode, with two turntables and a mixer. Load up two songs and mix between them, and virtual grooves are drawn on the screen so you can identify the breaks in the music. You can apply one of five free effects to either track.
The simplest way to mix is Automix mode. In Automix mode, you view all your tracks, and with one tap, djay mixes all of them with optimal transition points using machine learning and the 'AI Automix engine.'
Automix mode in landscape. It works in portrait as well.
The new version also has Spotify integration, giving you access to a huge library of songs if you're a Spotify subscriber. The integration allows users to match songs that go well with what's currently playing, and provide a list of matching songs based on danceability, BPM, key, and music style. It's also able to save songs to Spotify collections and playlists from within djay.
If you have a Pioneer, Reloop, or Mixtour controller, djay is able to work with it immediately. All these features are free, where different versions of djay used to be paid-for apps.
What's different now is that djay is moving to a subscription model, and unlocking pro features with the subscription. In addition to the supported controllers in the free level, a paid subscription unlocks support for over 50 MIDI controllers from Pioneer DJ, Reloop, Numark, Denon DJ, and others. It also adds an advanced MIDI learn system to map each control on users' hardware individually and enables support for Bluetooth MIDI.
Subscription also unlocks unlimited access to a 1GB library of samples, loops, FX, and visuals with content provided by Loopmasters, Future Loops, DocOptic, Sugar Bytes, and others, and a looper and sequencer, so you can begin performing tracks in addition to mixing and spinning. Users who want to make it into a performance can load up the grid-based Looper with up to 48 loops, and djay will time-stretch them and match them to the beat in real-time.
Cue points!
A pro subscription also turns on video mixing, with output support to external displays. There's a library of visualizers in djay that work with this feature. If you have a new iPad Pro with USB-C, you can use external displays and be connected to DJ hardware at the same time.

Turning on the subscription also enables an advanced media library with playlist editing and management, smart filters, and iOS drag and drop integration with the Files app and Dropbox.

Earlier, we mentioned the Automix AI engine. An AI is only as good as the training that gives it the data to work with. Here, Algoriddim trained the AI using training sets from human DJs.
Automix AI intelligently identifies rhythmic patterns and the best intro and outro sections of songs. It then calculates optimal fade durations and automatically applies parameter changes to EQs and filters for a seamless transition. Users can fully customize their preferred mix settings and start the automix with a single tap.
djay also now includes Ableton Link, a protocol Ableton developed that allows apps from multiple vendors to all sync up to the same beat on a shared Wi-Fi network. Inclusion of Ableton Link means you can use djay to jam with friends using desktops or compatible mobile apps, and your djay beats will play in tempo with the their applications.
The new version of djay is available now on the App Store for free, and comes with a seven-day trial of all pro features.
Upgrading to a pro subscription for all the sounds, visuals, and other features is priced at $4.99 a month. Existing customers who purchased a version of djay in the past on iOS are eligible for an entire year's subscription for $9.99 —$30 off the standard pricing, or a year for two month's price.
The new djay for iOS is compatible with any iPhone or iPad running iOS 11.2 or later.
Some love it and some hate it, but either way, the iPad is gaining traction as a viable DJing platform. It makes sense; all the time, tablets are getting more computer-like while computers are getting more tablet-like.
But this is still a bit of an unexplored frontier for many DJs. What are the options? Are there decent controllers for iPad DJing, or are they all plasticky toys?
To help answer this, I’ve done the research in order to present to you what are, in my opinion, the five current best controller options for iPad DJs as we approach the end of 2014.
Here they are, in no particular order:
Traktor Kontrol S2 MK2
MSRP: $499 | See Current Street Price | See Customer Reviews Download virtual dj for pc.
Native Instruments’ Kontrol series is still a staple for many digital DJs. When NI decided to refresh their S2 and S4 lineup with the MK2 updates, they added a pretty major feature: support for Traktor DJ for iPad.
The S2 is not pushing the innovation envelope, but is still one of the best options for Traktor-based DJs. If you like Traktor DJ and want to use that going forward, this is the recommendation I would give. As a bonus, you get to use it with “big Traktor” on your laptop as well.
Of course, the S4 is an option too. But only choose that if you want to use a laptop to DJ sometimes, since you’ll be wasting 2 channels (Traktor DJ for iOS only supports two.)

Reloop Beatpad
MSRP: $899 | See Current Street Price | See Customer Reviews
I’ve become a big Reloop fan as of late, because their hardware is solid, well-presented, and tightly-integrated with its intended software.

The Reloop Beatpad is a dedicated iOS controller, developed and optimized for Algoriddim’s DJay software. Of course, it’s MIDI enabled and can be mapped to your software of choice should you connect it to a laptop.
The unit features two headphone connections on the front side, two master outputs (XLR, RCA) and even an aux input for iPod, CD player or turntable on the back of the device. And the extra large “vinyl grip” jog wheels featured on other Reloop controllers are present here. As a nice added feature, the wheels are surrounded by multi-colored LED rings which indicate the position of the track in a circular motion.
Reloop’s entire controller lineup these days is solid, and the Beatpad is no exception.

MSRP: $299 | See Current Street Price | See Customer Reviews (coming soon)
The WeGo3 is a brand new controller in the WeGo line by Pioneer, and excels as a great bang-for-buck option for iPad DJs.
The “Pulse Control” function gives visual feedback via moving jog wheel animations: Launch Pulse (moves from load button to jog wheel when track is loaded), FX Pulse (light patterns showing which FX/filters are engaged), and Beat Pulse (glows to show the volume of sound).
This controller is also compatible with Virtual DJ 8 and Serato DJ Intro for the laptop users. The WeGo3 version of the Djay software has been streamlined for clarity to remove unnecessary duplication, and the unit itself has a unique (but intuitive) layout.

Djay Pro 2 Mac Compatible Controllers
The iDJ differs from other offerings in that the tablet actually sits flush in the controller itself. This serves both to get the iPad out of your face, and to give more intuitive control for people that want to tap and drag on the iPad itself.
It also differs in that, instead of line faders, it has rotary knobs for each channel. This was probably done to save room (since the iPad effectively becomes part of the controller itself), but many people prefer rotary control. This is something rarely seen on controllers.
The downside to having the tablet dead center is the fact that it forces the configuration into a somewhat non-standard layout. The EQ’s, for example, are at the top left and top right… a spot usually reserved for FX control.
One thing worth mentioning is the fact that this is one of the few iPad controllers that are iPad ONLY… that is, it cannot be used as a MIDI controller for your laptop.
The iDJ Pro features capacitive touch-activated platters, die-cast aluminum volume knobs, and brushed aluminum casing with hot cue, loop, and effects controls. Overall, a solid choice.

The Spin2 has an appearance very similar to the classic VCI-100. It works across all Apple devices and provides intuitive control via your iPad.
This controller is compact, lightweight, and includes a “studio grade audio interface”. This is a great unit to just toss in your bag and head to a quick gig without much trouble. The track browsing interface is similar to the d-pad on a video game controller, which some people may or may not prefer over the rotary encoders present on most.
For lovers of the Vestax brand, the Spin2 provides a nice solution at a reasonable price.

So there you have it… five great options for DJing with your iPad. As you can see, most of the options utilize the popular DJay app by Algoriddim, with the exception of the Kontrol S2. An S2 is definitely my recommendation if you want to use Traktor DJ. Outside of that, the rest are solid options and it really just comes down to preference (as always).
My personal favorites? The Kontrol S2 if you want to use Traktor DJ; Reloop’s Beatpad otherwise. But, they are all up to the task!
