The Studio view of DJ.Studio#

The Studio View is where your DJ mix truly comes to life : the main creative control center where you mix tracks, shape transitions, edit beatgrids and enhance your mix with effects, samples and visuals.

⁠The Studio view looks different for DJ mix projects and for Mashup projects.

Studio view - ⁠DJ Mix#

The DJ.Studio’s Studio View mirrors a real DJ setup, with:

  • Alternating Deck 1 and Deck 2 for DJ-style mixing
  • Sample lanes for sound effects, IDs and creative layering
  • The tempo lane to visualize BPM changes throughout your mix

At the bottom of the screen you see the following tabs:

  • Zoom & Playlist : for navigation and arrangement
  • Track : for key, BPM and advanced beat grid control
  • Video : for mixing music videos or generating beat-synced visuals
  • Effects : for EQ, filters, compression and third-party VST plugins
  • Master : for balancing loudness and mastering your final mix
  • Samples : for sound effects, radio IDs and DJ drops

The Studio View is where preparation turns into performance.

Studio view - ⁠Mashup#

In Mashup mode:

  • You can use the whole canvas.
  • There is no playlist; the canvas is one huge track.
  • You have 1 master lane, instead of 2. That 1 Master lane dictates the tempo. The tempo lane will reflect the tempo of any track or sample placed in here.
  • You have 4 sample lanes, no voice-over lane.
  • There are no transition windows between tracks. You can freely add tracks and drag them around.
  • Samples are not linked to any track, so if you drag the track in the master lane, the samples that were below that track will not move with it.
  • You can only export to audio or video, not to playlist or any other platforms.
  • Mashups cannot be side-loaded into DJ mixes. If you want to use the mashup in a DJ mix, you need to export your mashup as an audio file and then upload it as a new track in your DJ mix project.
  • Automixing is not available in Mashup mode. If you wish to use automixing, you must switch to a DJ mix project.
