djay - DJ App & AI Mixer 4+

Best DJ App for iPhone imo!

I’ve tried a lot of different DJ apps on here and while nothing will compare to VirtualDJ, that isn’t available on iOS so this is definitely the closest alternative out there.

My only few complaints would be;

- the vocal/instrumental isolation tools could be improved quality wise, especially when isolating vocals but I have noticed recent updates have added extra tools to try and improve so hopefully it’ll only get better

- more looper sound packs; they’re all great but there’s only so many things you can do with the same packs, even if we had to pay for the extra ones I wouldn’t mind as long as they were reasonably priced

- there is a bug I’ve encountered since downloading where often times the track will start a few seconds in instead of at the beginning which can get frustrating especially when doing longer mixes that use multiple tracks at specific points

- another bug I encounter a lot is especially when using looper over two tracks, the last loaded track never matches with the BPM set of the looper making it quite hard to mix and sound good using more than one track.

Other than these though I love this app, maybe some cool personalization things would make a good addition too like setting custom colours for the decks other than that keep up the great work! ❤️

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE

Probably the best software I’ve ever used in my life...
Thank you 🙏🏻☮️

Edit:
Had to delete App since it used over 6GB’s of memory, made sure to keep my subscription but after reloading the app I now have quite a few problems with the video mixer. I can’t use the third manual FX for visual, audio or a/v anymore! Only the first two actually work. Plus one of the graphics is constantly stuck downloading and never completes. It’s such a shame as I made some great videos before this happened and now feel very limited in what I can produce. Also made a whole 19min video and the audio didn’t work at all. Really wish I hadn’t deleted now as I lost so much from purely having a small issue with memory. Please help...

If it was a real DJ, it would be mid-level-beginner.

It can mix on a basic, sometimes tasteful level. It’s default phrasing isn’t very good — but that can be adjusted in the settings to make more appealing (longer transitions are generally better on the app). The transitions are well listenable though: just don’t expect to find a excellent transition — perhaps once in a blue moon, however, the transitions are rarely repugnant if the duration is 16 bars, you use its ‘match’ feature, mix out of a playlist with the same genre of songs and keep the transition setting on ‘EQ’. You can easily find repugnant transitions without these strict limits.

I use the app in the gym so I can listen to my own selection of tracks [since DJ’s usually play more tracks I don’t like in a mix than tracks I do like {and I don’t like replaying much}]; furthermore, it saves me going back on my phone to change the track which ruins the flow of the workout. It’s also good as a short cut to find tracks that do go real well together [that you may have missed otherwise] and you, yourself, can go into the booth and mix them with finesse.

The onboarding tutorial is notably shallow, also, with much to figure out on my own — experimenting was enjoyable though.

Most other features are superfluous and not worth mentioning due to not being up to scratch for excellent listening or mixing. Finally, don’t expect to mix manually with ease or style since there are no memory or hot cue points.

Hi iamjoshwilliam, Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. It sounds like you're using djay's Automix functionality, along with the track Match feature, to play a mix in the gym. It's great to hear that you're enjoying the mix djay provides there! Regarding hot cues, djay offers the ability to set up to 8 cue points per track. If you weren't able to find this feature, please get in touch with us and we'll be happy to help you out. In addition, if you'd like to share more specifics about what features you found lacking or if there were any other features you had difficulty finding in the app, please contact us. As we’re continually working to improve the new djay app, your feedback would be much appreciated. You can reach us at feedback@algoriddim.com. Kind regards, Algoriddim Support
