ClubDJ Pro vs Cross DJ

ClubDJ Pro is DJ software for dual-deck audio and video mixing on desktop, alongside an iOS option and a browser-based mixer. Its core tools include beat and BPM detection, beat sync, live waveforms, three-band EQ, vinyl scratching, and beat-matched loops. Desktop video mixing adds more than 25 GPU effects, 41 transitions, and 13 visual overlays. The desktop app can separate tracks into vocal, melody, bass, and beat stems in real time. Smart Transition beatmatches and mixes between decks, while Auto-DJ can play a playlist without manual mixing. Desktop supports MIDI controllers and can send mixed video to a projector or second screen in 1080p. It plays local audio and video files but does not stream from Spotify. The free desktop download unlocks all features, but sessions stop after 30 minutes and require a relaunch. A Desktop license is $39.99 as a one-time purchase, billed as $39.99 once; it removes the session timer and includes lifetime updates. Desktop supports 64-bit Windows 10 or 11 and macOS 12 Monterey or later.

Cross DJ is a two-deck mixing app for creating and performing DJ mixes on Android, iOS, and macOS. Its mixer combines classic DJ EQs with real-time stem separation to isolate beats and vocals. A waveform player lets users zoom and line up tracks; hot cues, adjustable loops, and a launcher with samples and one-shots add performance controls. The product page lists more than 30 effects, and Automix can automate transitions. The App Store listing says users can stream from Spotify, Beatport, and SoundCloud Go+, or access music through iCloud, Dropbox, and Google Drive. Cross DJ supports cloud library sync and Ableton Link, and MIXVIBES names supported MIDI controllers plus USB audio interfaces and external mixers. The free app has optional in-app purchases. Cross DJ Premium costs $19.99 a year and unlocks Pro features on iOS and Mac; Cross DJ Pro for Android costs $36.99, paid once. An iPhone subscription works on iPad or Mac with the same Apple ID, but subscriptions do not transfer between Apple and Android devices.
