DJ.Studio is changing the game.
With its pioneering concept and cutting-edge technology, the platform is set to redefine the way DJs record mixes. Undoubtedly one of the most innovative platforms on the market, DJ.Studio has the potential to become a world leader in electronic music software.
The brainchild of founder Siebrand Dijkstra, who wanted to find the solution to creating perfect DJ mixes in minimal time – and so DJ.Studio was born. A revolutionary platform that will be just as useful to aspiring DJs as seasoned industry professionals, DJ.Studio uses advanced AI-based harmonic intelligence to create flawless mixes in just a fraction of the time, every time.
Unlike anything that has been seen before, the ground-breaking app allows users to sync their existing library, and seamlessly craft their existing playlist of tracks into a mix all at the touch of a button. Once mixed, users have the option to create a local music file, share it on Mixcloud or YouTube or export it to Ableton for additional editing and mastering.
“I have been passionate about electronic music for more than 25 years and I have been creating DJ mixes for the last 15 years. In that period I used an old legacy application, which unfortunately was only running in Windows and it got deprecated 10 years ago, so it was time for me to build it myself with my team.” – Siebrand Dijkstra
Taking away the time-consuming trial and error track matching process, DJ.Studio is able to give its users more time to get down to the nitty-gritty of mixing – to craft their own transitions and effects in this digital audio workstation designed specifically for DJs.
What we thought…
From testing this software at Data Transmission, we’ve found that the AI will select a good playlist for the mix but we’ve found that in every case we’ve had to move the playlist around to make a better mix, a better flow of the tracks.
We’ve also found that with each track you need to move the start & end point for each track to make the beats sync properly as sometimes the software would pick a start point which didn’t make sense. You still need to be the DJ within the software and still need to understand the concept of DJing to allow the best use of the software. The software still will make a good trainwreck if you don’t know how to DJ and adjust the tracks accordingly.
This software speeds up the process of making a mix and is perfect for those doing Radio Shows and promotion mixes for track releases. It’s a fun piece of software to play around with, we enjoyed trying to get the best mix possible out of it and enjoyed tweaking the settings of each track mix to maybe loop in a track or exit a track in a fun way.
We really liked that as a label we could create mixes for Youtube with tracks from our label as extra promotion for the label’s releases simply and easily. We also created the mix below using tracks from our premieres for the Month of May (above) and it created the YouTube video for us.
From the testing, we found that you could make an hour mix in around 15 minutes from start to finish. We’ve found many real-world places this software would work for us but also you can beat jumping on the decks and have a creative session, every day of the week!
How It Works…
To do this, DJ.Studio has included a powerful and seamless integration with Mixed In Key – one of the industry’s best creative tools for DJing. Using the software’s pioneering Camelot wheel, as well as several other key features, DJ.Studio can offer its users the ability to master the art of harmonic mixing. Boasting the capacity to make over 250 million calculations in half a minute and a professional quality mix in less than fifteen minutes, DJ.Studio has transformed the future of mixing.
DJ.Studio allows users to import tracks straight from their music libraries, with rekordbox, Serato, Virtual DJ, Traktor Pro, Engine DJ, Mixed In Key, Engine DJ and iTunes all supported in the app.
Whilst this is perfect for those who already have a huge catalogue of music, for those who don’t, DJ.Studio really comes into its own with an innovative YouTube integration. Whether you are an aspiring DJ testing the waters, or someone who wants to use the app to provide mixes for their events, house or dinner parties, or maybe just to listen whilst you work, with this feature anyone can create a continuous mix using their favourite tracks online.
A cutting-edge tool aimed at everyone from bedroom DJs looking to start creating mixes, superstar DJs trialling new ideas whilst on the go, or radio hosts looking to record their shows, DJ.Studio gives everyone the chance to create seamless mixes in a matter of minutes.
DJ.Studio is available as a one-off licence or a monthly subscription starting from $/€/9 per month. For more information, tips and tricks head to dj.studio
