About

DJ Mix Deck

Features
Read full description

DJ Mix Deck is a two-deck DJ mixer for the music you already own. Load tracks from Files, beatmatch them, and mix. No account, no subscription, no connection. TWO DECKS, TWO FACES Waveform view for reading a track at a glance, or turntable view when you would rather put a hand on the platter. Same engine, same transport, either way. BEATMATCHING THAT HOLDS Every track is analysed on load for tempo and downbeat. SYNC matches the tempo and lines up the beat, and the two stay locked — no audible drift, even through a long blend. Or ride it by hand: tempo faders run to plus or minus 16 percent, with key lock so a big pitch change does not wreck the vocal. CUES AND LOOPS Eight hot cues per deck — hold to set, tap to jump. Beat loops from half a beat to sixteen, taken straight off the detected grid, plus manual in and out. EQ AND FX Three-band EQ with a kill on every band. Filter, flanger and reverb live on a pad you hold and move, and it springs back the moment you let go. SCRATCH AND SEEK A finger on the platter is a scratch, driven by a granular scrub engine rather than a jump. Drag the tonearm to drop the needle anywhere in the track. CUE IN YOUR HEADPHONES With a split cable, hear the next track in one ear while the room hears the mix in the other. BUILT FOR A PHONE Landscape and thumb-first. Every control you touch mid-mix runs on the UI thread, so it stays smooth while both decks play. YOUR MUSIC, YOUR DEVICE Plays audio files you already have — MP3, WAV, M4A, AIFF. Nothing streams, nothing uploads, nothing is collected. It works in airplane mode. Free, with no subscription and nothing to unlock. DJ Mix Deck is given to you by AI Jingle Maker, and you will see one card saying so.
