We are excited to announce our collaboration with Casio on the next generation DJ controller XW-DJ1 for Mac, iPad, and iPhone.

The XW-DJ1 is a battery-powered, all-in-one compact DJ controller with a built-in speaker. Easy to carry, the XW-DJ1 lets you perform wherever you are without any fuss. Thanks to an original, symmetric, single-disk design, it allows you to DJ easily whether right- or left-handed. The XW-DJ1 is equipped with a 7-inch wide scratch disk that simulates the grooves on analog records. It feels as if you’re spinning an actual vinyl record, enabling the lifelike scratching of a turntablist.

We’re looking forward to your continued feedback via the djay Facebook page or @Algoriddim on Twitter.

We’ve released a massive update to djay Pro, free to all existing users, with live video mixing, plug & play support for the Pioneer CDJ and XDJ line-up including enhanced Spotify integration.

Furthermore, we’ve partnered with Pioneer DJ for a seamless plug-and-play integration of djay Pro with the CDJ-2000nexus, CDJ-900nexus, and XDJ-1000, the worldwide club standard for professional DJs. For the first time, DJs can access Spotify playlists directly from the CDJ and XDJ screens including displaying waveforms, song information, and cue points.

Spotify integration in djay Pro now supports high quality bit rate with up to 320 kb/s.

Other new features in this update include Finder integration, External Mixer Mode, new collection album cover view, song recommendations, 8 cue points per deck and history sessions export as CSV, iTunes, or Spotify playlist, and plug & play support for Numark Mixtrack Quad, Mixtrack Edge, and Denon MC6000, MC6000MK2, MC2000.

Elevating the art of DJing and thinking outside of the box is something that DJ Angelo is widely recognised for, but never has he pushed himself (or technology) to this extreme before.

Whilst his turntables stayed well and truly grounded on this occasion, Angelo took to the skies (15,000 feet to be exact) armed with a iPad Mini and djay 2 in an attempt to become the first DJ to perform live in mid-air!
