DECKADANCE

Deckadance is a DJ mixing application that works either as a standalone program OR as a VSTi plugin inside your favourite host.

You can control Deckadance using your mouse, keyboard & most existing midi controllers & timecoded vinyl and CD systems. 

Image-Line, the company behind Deckadance, has more than 10 years of experience in writing and managing audio software such as FL Studio. In developing Deckadance, we didn't just bring in some consulting DJs to tell our software engineers what they wanted. Deckadance was written by DJs for DJs, so we are confident that it will take your DJing to the next level.

Of course, if you suck as a DJ, you will still suck using Deckadance, but you will suck better, faster, harder and more creatively than ever before!
 

TRAKTOR PRO AND
TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO

Digital Heart, Vinyl Soul!
Native Instruments' Traktor Pro represents their next generation in DJ software technology, sporting a serious focus on performance. Building on the power of popular Traktor software, Traktor Pro features a redesigned user interface, premium effects based on Reaktor technology, auto beat-gridding, auto-syncing, and a cool new Cover Art feature in the virtual "crate." Native Instruments set out to give Traktor Pro a "digital heart" with a "vinyl soul" - and that's exactly what you can expect. Blend old school vibe with a ton of modern MIDI tricks - it's all inside Traktor Pro.

Native Instruments Traktor Pro at a Glance:

  • Killer interface - intuitive layout, high-contrast, meant for performance
  • Auto beat-gridding, auto-syncing - vinyl soul with serious digital conveniences
  • Vinyl-inspired virtual crate with Cover Art flicking
  • Easily jump between "hot loops," thanks to quantized controls
  • 21 pro-grade effects with tempo-syncing, two independent processors, and more
  • Easily map advanced controls to your favorite MIDI controllers

Killer interface - intuitive layout, high-contrast, meant for performance
Native Instruments made serious headway with Traktor Pro, redesigning the already-renowned software, so you can even more intuitively and confidently perform with it. The overhauled interface was created with real-world club environments in mind. To start, it's all high-contrast, so you can see everything clearly, no matter the lighting conditions. Plus, you've got larger fonts, bright wave forms, and an even smoother layout for an improved workflow.

Auto beat-gridding, auto-syncing - vinyl soul with serious digital conveniences
Traktor Pro offers up four decks, making it easy to add loops, tracks, and samples. But maybe the coolest part is that all the tracks you add are automatically beat-detected and precisely gridded - pull them in, and you're already ready to go. The new Sync Lock function can keep your tracks perfectly synced with no drifting over time - leave the room for 15 minutes, 30...they'll still be right in sync. What's more, Traktor Pro's intelligent loop and cue functions make it easy for you to sculpt your own remixes on the fly while the master tempo and effects are all tied together in the background.

Vinyl-inspired virtual crate with Cover Art flicking
If you've worked in the analog DJ world, you've probably flipped through a crate of vinyl to hunt down that perfect track mid-set. In fact, over time many of us have come to rely on the track's cover art to remember it, not just it's name. With Traktor Pro, you can still work that same natural way. At the bottom of the screen, you've got a virtual crate. Every file in your crate can be tied to its cover art - even WAV and AIFF files. You can virtually "flip" through albums as you scroll - just the "tip" of the album will show in your crate, just like in the real world. And whenever you select an album, its full cover art will appear. Traktor Pro makes it easier than ever for you to navigate through your library on the fly - no worries.

Easily jump between "hot loops," thanks to quantized controls
With Traktor Pro, you can set up jump points within a track where you've determined loops. You can even create loops easily on the fly. Traktor Pro can quantize its controls - so you can jump from one loop to the next without worrying about the transition. You can also cut up loops into smaller and smaller chunks - in half, in half again, in half again, and so on - by just pressing a button on the fly

21 pro-grade effects with tempo-syncing, two independent processors, and more
Each of the four decks in Traktor Pro sports a legendary Allen & Heath Xone 92 4-band EQ and filters, so you can take charge of the full frequency spectrum. Plus, the software's now loaded with 21 professional-quality effects, many built with Native Instruments' premium Reaktor technology. You can chain the effects in groups of up to six at a time - and they're controllable in either "easy" or "pro" mode for your needs. The premier performance effects, including IceVerb, Bitcrusher, Ring Modulater, and Reverse Grain, boast tempo-syncing so you can tweak away and never miss a beat, unless you want to. The dual effects processors are each capable of three effects inserted in series, with up to six simultaneously on a track.

Easily map advanced controls to your favorite MIDI controllers
You can use Traktor Pro freely without needing a MIDI controller, as it's totally tweakable with a mouse and designated "hot keys" on your keyboard. But you can also add your favorite controller - or multiple controllers - for true hands-on tweaking. Many major controllers feature pre-mapped, yet customizable, MIDI assignments for Traktor Pro. Plus, you can upgrade to Traktor Scratch Pro to add turntables and CD decks to your setup for even more vinyl-styled control of your sound.
