DJ SoundBox Pro — Reborn. Since 2010, DJ SoundBox Pro has been a trusted soundboard for creators, performers, and DJs around the world. Now it's been completely rebuilt from the ground up in modern Swift — the app you know, running on an entirely new engine underneath. A decade of bugs, fixed. Interface glitches, gone. This isn't an incremental update — it's a full relaunch, with real new capabilities built for how creators actually work today. ----- FOR LIVE STREAMERS & PODCASTERS ----- Your cues need to land the instant you tap them, without stepping on everything else running in the background. - Trigger sounds while your music or podcast app keeps playing right alongside — no more getting cut off or ducked out - Layer sound effects on top of each other for fast, stacked reactions — or set a pad to cut and restart clean, your choice - Load sounds three ways: import from Files, record fresh from the mic, or drop in a direct link - Deep per-pad control — color, volume, pitch, and more — so every cue is exactly where you expect it ----- FOR DJs & PERFORMERS ----- When you're live in front of a crowd, your set needs to behave exactly the way you built it. - Connect a MIDI controller or external keyboard and map any key or note to a pad — trigger your whole set without touching the screen - Record a full performance — hit Record, play your pads, hit Stop, and play it back with the original timing intact - Choose per pad whether hits layer or cut clean, so every pad behaves exactly how your set demands - Build and organize your own sound sets, then sync them to your other devices over iCloud — export on one, import on the next ----- FOR CASUAL CREATORS ----- Sometimes you just want a soundboard that's fun, fast, and simply works. - Three easy ways to load sounds — Files, mic recording, or a direct link — build your board your way - Upgrading from an old version? Your existing sound sets are found and brought in automatically — nothing lost - A decade of glitches and crashes, gone, so it just works every time - A clean, modern interface that looks right at home in portrait or landscape on today's iPhone and iPad ----- DJ SoundBox Pro has been trusted by creators since 2010.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Easy Performer at Free against DJ SoundBox Pro's $1.99. Easy Performer also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 34%) and ratings volume (159 vs 1). DJ SoundBox Pro's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Easy Performer is free to download; DJ SoundBox Pro costs $1.99 up front. DJ SoundBox Pro sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Easy Performer sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
DJ SoundBox Pro holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Easy Performer has 159 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 34% of DJ SoundBox Pro's written reviews are positive against 67% of Easy Performer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
DJ SoundBox Pro ships an update every 2 months, Easy Performer fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
