Promissing but found a big bug

• ★★★☆☆   Alexandros Roussos 9 years ago ( v 1.0 )

The app is very promising but I found a major bug : played with Shutter delay and totally lost audio.

Bravo et merci ...

• ★★★★★   MaximeOne 9 years ago ( v 1.0 )

J’espere que ca va fonctionner avec ma DDJ S1...

SPOTIFY ENFIN!!!!!!!!

• ★★★★☆   MacBooTooK 9 years ago ( v 1.0 )

Manque encore quelques petites fonctions pour s’appeler PRO… Mais la Complicité de SPOTIFY est nickel!!!!! Logiciel Prometteur!!!!!

40€…? + 9€..?

• ★★☆☆☆   10dier 9 years ago ( v 1.0 )

I bought the DJay app. Now I just bought this DJAY Pro, thinking there will be a LOT MORE functions, effects etc. For me, the Spotify Adding is gréât, for sure, but I think you didn’t forget to put a high price on this… Upgrade. And then, to thank us to be « good » clients, we even need to pay the FX Pack for a.. REVERB….???? (ok not only that but, still). To sum up, adding of Spotify and few minor upgrades doesn’t justify a so high price; for a second opus. What next then, a DJay Pro2 with a blue or red background design for 40€?

Pas mal, mais trop de bugs ...

• ★★★☆☆   FabriceP 9 years ago ( v 1.0 )

Bien, moir décevant. … donc j’attends quelques correctifs pour que cette application soit utilisable. Je note par exemple que l’AirPlay ne fonctionne pas du tout. Rien ne sort, alors qu’avec itunes aucun soucis. Graphiquement intéressant. du bon boulot quand même. Mon système : iMac 27 late 2013, et Macbook Pro Retina late 2013. Merci pour le correctif +++

Spotify hors ligne non supporté

• ★★★☆☆   Reno0o0o 9 years ago ( v 1.0 )

Pas mal au niveau de l’interface mais visiblement impossible de jouer les morceaux enregistrés sur Spotify sans connexion Internet et c’est bien dommage car c’est LA fonctionalité qui m’interessait avec cette mise à jour...

Peux mieux faire

• ★★☆☆☆   Dim900 9 years ago ( v 1.0 )

La précision avec un controleur reste largement inferieur a ces concurents comme serato ou Tractor, idem pour les effets.. Le plus pour moi, a temps qu’amateur de mix c’est la connexion avec spotify.. Plus besoin de maintenir sa musique a jour.. Sinon dans la globalité simpatique..
