What’s New In djay Pro 2.0?

It might be a little hard to keep track of all of Algoriddim’s various software that they’re maintaining. It’s an impressive array of offerings for various platforms – but consider djay Pro to be the pinnacle of what Algoriddim is working on. This is the program that they put as many innovative features in and target the professional and prosumer DJ customers with.

We’ve trimmed up the feature list from Algoriddim’s press release below:

Automix AI: Using machine learning and training sets from human DJs, Automix AI intelligently identifies rhythmic patterns and the best intro and outro sections of songs. Automix AI calculates optimal fade durations and automatically applies parameter changes to EQs and filters for a seamless transition. Beats and tempos are matched using Morph which ensures that a song’s BPM is maintained during a transition. This innovative song mixing technology allows for seamless cross-genre mixes with varying tempo.

Using Match, an innovative song recommendation engine powered by Spotify, users get a continuous queue based on danceability, BPM, key, and music style. Automix AI allows users to fully lean back and enjoy the mix, yet users still have full manual control over Automix AI settings on-the-fly, as well as the ability to change the source music at
any time. Using the transition button, users can trigger a seamless mix to the next song at any time.

Advanced Media Library: An advanced library management system that is built around a sophisticated integration with Spotify, iTunes, Video, Photos, and the file system. djay Pro 2 now also offers its own playlists that make music management easier than ever. These appear in their own tab in the library manager, and allow users to create their own custom and smart playlists. Via the split view, users can even manage their songs from iTunes and Spotify side by side. To help organize users playlists and quickly locate songs, djay Pro 2 includes a powerful Smart Filter. With 12 different criteria, users can create rules that display exactly what they need, either to create permanent playlists, or to temporarily find a specific song.

PhotoBeatTM: Users can drag an album or a selection of photos onto the visual decks and djay Pro 2 creates a beat-matched slideshow. Photos are cycled on beat and the rate can be adjusted on-the-fly in a range of a 1/4 beat all the way up to 4 beats per photo. Users can also apply effects to their photos in the same way as video, and output via an external monitor through HDMI or AirPlay.

Accessibility: Every feature of djay Pro 2 has been carefully adapted for Accessibility, so vision impaired users can seamlessly dive into the experience. With VoiceOver enabled, users hear a description of everything happening on their screen through their headphones independent of the mix that is playing through the main speakers.
