Tracks can be loaded from the playlist into the TRAKTOR LE’s two playback decks per drag & drop. The track immediately appears in the waveform display. TRAKTOR LE shows the running track’s waveform as two separate frequency bands in real-time, thus enabling the user to anticipate beats, breaks and instrumentation ahead of time. An additional display for each deck shows the entire track as a mini waveform, allowing users to find any song passage fast.
As soon as a track is loaded, TRAKTOR’s automatic BPM detection calculates the tempo. Adjust the tempo of a track manually or use the Sync function to automatically align the tempo of the two tracks being played. Advanced Key Lock and time stretching features are included. A beat-accurate instant loop button and cue point offers creative mixing possibilities.
TRAKTOR LE’s integrated 2-channel mixer provides a classic 3-band equalizer with kill switches and input gain. The central element of the mixer is the crossfader and cue mix (with separate headphone mix). A master effects section has been included, offering four different effects: filter, delay, reverb and flanger. All controls offer incremental buttons and the “Ghost Pointer” feature allows you to instantly jump to a pre-defined value.
TRAKTOR LE’s ultra-fast database makes it easy to manage and archive tens of thousands of tracks. Extended ID3-tags allow all information to be saved in the MP3 file -tags can even be written into other file types that do not normally support this, such as WAV and AIFF. You can search for files using the integrated file browser, add tracks to your playlist, track collection or the new record cases, and pre-listen tracks without having to load them into a deck. The unique Crate Flick lets you browse by artist, album, genre or label, or use the fast search engine to find a specific track. Save as many playlists as you like. iTunes playlist import is also supported and TRAKTOR LE is fully iPod compatible.
Duo
TRAKTOR DUO provides all the essentials of modern DJ software. Built on a deep understanding of DJs’ needs, TRAKTOR DUO gives you two feature-packed decks with rock-solid performance and complete creative freedom – no matter what your style.
Utilizing the experience of nearly a decade of TRAKTOR software research and development, TRAKTOR DUO is streamlined and focused to give DJs the essential features they need to spin digital. Boasting two state-of-the-art playback decks, a selection of professional-quality effects, an easy-to-use interface and premium sound quality, TRAKTOR DUO puts the world’s bestselling DJ software within the reach of DJs at any experience level or budget.
At the heart of TRAKTOR DUO are two playback decks packed with plenty of useful and creative features. An automatic beat grid and precise beat detection capabilities provide you with the correct BPM readings for mixing your tracks. The Sync Lock function makes sure that once tracks are beat-matched they will never drift out of time, and intelligent loop and cue functions even let you remix tracks on the fly.
Both playback decks in TRAKTOR DUO integrate a 3-band EQ and classic filters giving you complete control of your tracks’ sound. For even deeper sonic transformations, TRAKTOR DUO comes with six high-quality effects: tempo-synched filter, delay, flanger and reverb, as well as the unique beatmasher and gater effects – built with Native Instruments’ groundbreaking REAKTOR technology.
TRAKTOR DUO incorporates the same user interface as TRAKTOR PRO. The high contrast, scalable fonts and intelligent grouping of graphic elements ensure an unparalleled ease of use and super-fast workflow. The intuitive Crate Flick search lets you visually flip through your collection by cover art and makes finding that next track both fun and easy.
The powerful groove production studio MASCHINE can be used as a MIDI controller for TRAKTOR DUO, alongside the TRAKTOR KONTROL X1. In these exclusive videos, 3-times World DMC Champion DJ Rafik demonstrates the next level of turntablism tricknology.

Simultaneously control four decks with CD or vinyl. Remix tracks live with the powerful and extensive loop functions.
AUDIO 8 DJ is the ultimate audio interface for DJs: This premium quality 24-bit/96kHz interface is built for TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO and utilizes ultra-precise Cirrus Logic® AD/DA converters for maximum loudness and quality: eight high-gain (9.7dBu) outputs, eight inputs, MIDI I/O and much more – all wrapped in a robust and compact design
TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO blurs the lines between digital and analog DJing, taking both to a new level. The high-resolution 2kHz control signal boasts unmatched response whether using vinyl or CD. Even the most demanding turntablists can feel how everything from slow rubs to quick backspins and even motor-offs respond just like vinyl. Pressed with extreme care onto high-quality 120g discs, it really feels like each digital file is cut into the wax.
TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO is designed for maximum plug-and-play usability, and comes with two Multicore cables that combine all necessary connections into a single pro-quality audio cable for each deck.

Pioneer’s DJS software was designed for professional and amateur DJs to enable full-scale DJ play on a PC. The software offers the same playability and functionality as the company’s Pro DJ products, using a PC instead of two CDJ turntables and a DJ mixer. The DJS software combines the key elements of Pioneer’s professional digital CD decks and mixers with a host of innovative features including:
Auto mixing
Waveform display for indicating playing position and cue/loop points
BPM synchronization and beat synchronization
Eight effects including Delay, Echo, Auto Pan, Trans, Filter, Flanger, Reverb and Pitch Shifter
Fader start function for controlling the playback of two players (channel, fader and cross fader)
Create function for setting four points for cues or loops in a song
Also included is a ripping function for converting CD, line input signals and wave files to MP3.
The graphic user interface is intuitive and easy to understand. It follows the same ergonomic design used in all Pioneer CDJ products and mixers. The display shows everything a professional DJ needs to see, including time, BPM, mixer controls, jog dial, hot cue buttons, etc.
The DJ can assign basic functions to a particular key on the PC keyboard. By doing this for frequently used functions, the DJ can establish his or her own playing style – on a keyboard. In addition, the “SYNC” feature automatically beat matches the cued track to the track that is playing and a powerful effects program mimics the effector features of the DJM-600.

Mixxx is free mixing software for DJs, providing everything needed to create live mixes. It allows you to beatmatch songs and crossfade them together, like you would with turntables and a mixer.
If you’re new to DJing, don’t sweat it - we have you covered. Mixxx runs without any extra hardware, and is a full replacement for a traditional “turntables and mixer” DJ setup. Thousands of people learn to DJ using Mixxx each year!
For experienced DJs, Mixxx offers a wide range of advanced features. Our comprehensive MIDI controller and vinyl control support gives you the tactile feel you need for ultimate control of your mixes. To obtain the lowest latency and highest responsiveness, Mixxx uses hardware video acceleration and takes advantage of multi-core CPUs.
Advanced Mixing Engine
Whether you’re blending psy-trance or mashing up the latest Top 40 tracks, Mixxx’s looping and hot cue controls give you the power to be more creative with your mixes.
Between BPM estimation and the parallel waveform displays, beatmatching has never been easier. Our new ramping pitchbend buttons allow you to subtley nudge songs back in sync without anyone noticing.
Stretch your music without changing the pitch! Mixxx’s pitch-independent time stretch locks the pitch of your music while you’re mixing, so you never have any awkward detuned moments. Our alternative vinyl emulation mode changes the pitch you change the tempo, and is perfect for scratching with a MIDI controller or with vinyl control.
DJ MIDI Controllers
Use the latest and greatest DJ MIDI controllers with Mixxx! Advanced MIDI controller support is provided by our groundbreaking MIDI scripting engine. Take advantage of your MIDI controller with our JavaScript-like language. Check it out:
Mixxx supports most popular DJ MIDI controllers like the Hercules DJ Console MK2, RMX, and Stanton SCS.3d. In addition to our natively supported controllers, our MIDI learning wizard helps you set up other controllers with Mixxx.
Vinyl Control
Using a turntable and timecoded vinyl, Mixxx’s playback can be syncronized to the turntable. This let’s you scratch and mix with your digital music collection as if it were on vinyl!
Mixxx supports Serato, Traktor Scratch, and FinalScratch vinyl, as well as Serato CD for control from CDJ units. Position synchronization (“Absolute Mode”) is fully supported for each of these timecodes as well.
Even better, you can save money and use your existing soundcard. Mixxx’s vinyl control works with any soundcard that has a stereo line-input jack. This means most consumer and professional soundcards can be used for vinyl control with Mixxx, so there’s no need to purchase expensive vinyl control hardware.
Flexibility and Freedom
We love to customize and tinker, and so we’ve made Mixxx as flexible as we can. From our cross-platform approach, to Mixxx’s skinnable interface and customizable EQ shelves, we’ve tried to give power users more options. Did we mention our crossfader curve control let’s you adjust for mixing, scratching, or anywhere in between?

MixSense DJ Studio is professional FREE software for digital DJ’s that demand the best DJ experience possible from their PC’s. Using the latest technology combined with years of audio software engineering experience, mixSense is the ideal DJ application for LIVE performances.
One of mixSense’s finest aspects is the fact that it is zero latency with almost any sound card. What does this mean? Latency is a common problem which refers to the overall time delay between the users initial input (eg. mouse click), and the actual response of the software. Almost all audio applications have a minimum latency of 20 - 100 milliseconds since the software has to ‘buffer’ the audio data for processing before actually playing it. 20 milliseconds may sound minor, but when beatmixing is concerned, 20 milliseconds delay can throw a mix out of sync. Why would you risk that? mixSense removes this common flaw by sending the audio data directly to the soundcard without any audio buffering and without sacrificing any major features.
