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.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

DJ SoundBox Pro holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ukulele Chords Compass has 7 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 50% of Ukulele Chords Compass's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

DJ SoundBox Pro ships an update every 2 months, Ukulele Chords Compass every 65 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
