Jan 18, 2014 Here is a tutorial video for djing, I got a request so here you go. Dj tutorial Djay 2 ipad YouTube. Djay 2 App Announces Spotify Partnership - Duration: 5:45. Learn to DJ and sharpen your skills. Algoriddim teamed up with the most talented DJs to teach you the art of mixing music. Phil, founder of Digital DJ Tips, the biggest DJ training website in the world, has written a best-selling iBook about DJing with djay on iOS. Djay Pro 2 is the next generation of Algoriddim’s multiple award-winning DJ software. Its unique, modern interface is built around a sophisticated integration with your music library, giving you instant access to your favorite music. Djay 2 for Android supports the following DJ MIDI controllers: Pioneer DDJ-WeGO4 Pioneer DDJ-WeGO3 Reloop Mixon 4 Reloop Beatpad 2 Reloop Beatpad Reloop Mixtour For further inf.
Android users, come in from the cold! You now have a DJ app to rival anything on iOS, in the shape of Algoriddim’s djay for Android. With external hardware support, Spotify on board (for a millions-strong choice of music), and a feature set that includes all the main functions of djay 2 on iOS, this is the most complete Android DJ app yet.
Android has traditionally lagged way behind iOS as a platform for music and DJing, but Algoriddim seems to have solved several of the problems that have led to this being the case. Algoriddim claims the software “runs on all popular Android smartphones and tablets regardless of screen size and resolution”, and the hardware support in djay 2 comes from Reloop in the shape of the Beatpad (also one of the leading DJ controllers for djay on iOS).
Spotify makes it easy to get started
The inclusion of Spotify is clever because it bypasses another of the issues mainstream users are likely to encounter DJing on Android, namely getting local music onto the device in the first place. Even on iOS it’s not always obvious to some users how to achieve this (using iTunes to physically transfer a library or part of one onto the devices, rather than using iTunes Match), but with Android, populating the Android Music library would likely thwart the average user on first downloading the app for some casual play. Spotify onboard bypasses that hassle instantly, and what’s more the implementation has an Echo Nest-powered recommendation engine, just like on iOS, to help DJs choose well-matched “next tracks”.
When used with external hardware (Reloop’s Beatpad controller), there is Midi control over the software, but the Android control doesn’t currently reach as far as using the Beatpad’s built-in audio interface. I am going to guess that as soon as Android L drops, so will multi-channel audio on this app. However, right from the off, that Midi control does look mightily impressive, as this DMC champ DJ Rasp video shows:
First thoughts
Overall, this is potentially a big move for Algoriddim and a game-changer for Android users. Remember there are many more Android devices out there than iOS, so this could potentially open up tablet/smartphone DJing to a whole new group of users bigger than anything seen before.
It’s not the only DJ app of note for Android; Mixvibes’ Cross DJ for Android is a competent offering, also boasting hardware support (again, a single controller, in this case the company’s own U-Mix Control Pro 2), as well as the ability to export mixes to Mixcloud and SoundCloud. However, we think Spotify is the big differentiator here; that and the fact that djay on iOS has had more than 15 million downloads, and is a mature and impressive app in its own right, with – at first glance – the Android version looking remarkably similar, albewit lacking some features (keylock is the most obvious one at first look).
Looking forward, perhaps the most significant thing here is the chance that someone will build a DJ controller with djay embedded right in there; Android hardware could far more feasibly power a DJ controller than Apple (proprietary), Windows (overkill / price) or Linux (no commercial DJ software on that platform). With Android tablets available from upwards of $50, it would be relatively cheap to embed Android hardware right into a DJ controller
We’ll bring you a proper od djay 2 for Android as soon as we can, but for now: Why not try it? It’s only $2.99…
• djay 2 for Android is available now at an introductory price of $2.99 from the Google Play App Store and from the Amazon Appstore. Spotify required a Spotify Premium subscription; a free trial is available. For more info on this, visit this page.

Pioneer DJ’s new DDJ-200 hardware is designed to work with mobile devices and streaming services primarily, and laptops/local music only as another way of DJing on top of that. It is able to work with a wide range of streaming services by being compatible with DJ apps from other brands as well as Pioneer DJ’s own WeDJ.
To use Spotify on it, then, you don’t use the (free) WeDJ app that Pioneer DJ recommends for the unit (check our first look review here), but instead, you use the djay app from Algoriddim, which is officially supported too.
djay has the added advantage of also working with iPad, up to and including the iPad Pro, so you get much more screen real estate to play with over DJing with WeDJ on an iPhone (WeDJ isn’t for iPad as of now).
Note that day in its full version is a subscription app (although at the time of writing you get six months for free), and you’ll need a Spotify subscription too to do this.
How to set it up
To get the DDJ-200 working with the app, you need to first power the DDJ-200 (plug it into your phone charger with the attached cable, for instance), then use the supplied mono (or “DJ”) splitter cable to take your iOS device’s headphones out to both your speakers and your headphones. Note that if you’re using a newer iPhone, you’ll need the headphones adaptor too, which removes your chance to charge the iPhone without yet another adaptor.
Next, you need to hit the preferences and go to Bluetooth Controllers, tapping on the DDJ-200 to get the two devices talking to each other.

In use
It is smooth, and a great deal of fun. Tracks load instantaneously on any half decent connection, and you can DJ with them immediately. for parties, music discover and so on, this is great – although because you can’t DJ with any kind of locally cached files, you wouldn’t want to rely on it for long in any professional situation.

The DDJ-200 and djay integration is fine – you’ll find yourself using the iOS device more for stuff that you can’t do on the controller (I couldn’t see any way to use pad FX, although I may have missed it, for instance); by default the pads are halved top/bottom between loops (with variations triggered by holding “shift” as well) and four cues.
Transition FX – a big new thing in WeDJ, with loads of variations – is one effect only (filter transition), again as far as I could tell on a “first look” test.
Variations: Description: I made a high quality skin with the new Pioneer CDJ-2000 and get it so realistic as possible. The skin is totaly rewriten for the latest gen.

None of these limitations are dealbreakers, because for me one of the advantages of Algoriddim’s software is that you can use this on a bigger screened device where it’s fine to use the touchscreen a bit more. The views, the FX, the sequencer and several other things on djay are better than WeDJ for me, and I am sure a lot of Algoriddim users would agree too. the choice is what’s important.

The only thing that irked me was having to go into a menus then another menu to change headphones volume.
Conclusion
This is a great way of DJing with Spotify quickly, simply and cheaply using a neat new piece of beginner hardware from Pioneer, and an established leader in iOS DJing software.
Many people will be happy to see this, and a lot of beginners who simply don’t understand why they can’t DJ with their lovingly crafted Spotify library will love this – it removes a huge obstacle for getting started in DJing.
