  • Accurate Key detection for smooth harmonic mixes:
  • There's accurate build-in key detection right in Cross DJ: no need for third party software anymore. Key can be displayed in classic notation or harmonic code, making it easy to find matching tracks.
  • Key control and dynamic display:
  • Key is just as important as BPM. Cross DJ displays it straight into the deck header. Match it automatically to the master deck, or change the pitch manually by semi-tones. The dynamic key display reflects those changes, and turns white when in harmony.
  • Browsing by key is now super easy: key compatible tunes are highlighted in bright orange. Focus on other search criterias, and the key still pops up.
  • Easy browsing with new full screen collection:
  • Selection is the heart of DJing. The collection view is now more intuitive than ever with the new mini-players. It gives more space to browse tracks, while keeping an eye on what’s playing. Additionally, you can now drag and drop tracks between players and samplers - useful when you have only one turntable or CDJ.
  • Peak view markers : better understanding of track structure:
  • DJs are used to production software grids to understand a track’s structure. Cross DJ is the first DJ application to show those markers on the track’s peak view, making it easy to mix musical phrases.
  • Mapping for Pioneer DDJ-SX and more:
  • Mixvibes’ philosophy is to be as open as possible. Cross DJ 2.5 introduces one to one mappings of the latest popular controllers:
  • Pioneer DDJ-SX
