rekordbox
rekordbox is DJ software for managing music and preparing and performing sets. Its tools cover track analysis, library setup, gig preparation and playback, with versions for Android, iOS, macOS and Windows. Cloud Library Sync uploads tracks and playlists to Dropbox for access across devices; Cloud Analysis is described as reducing track-analysis time by up to 35%. Users can separate tracks into vocals, drums, bass and instrumental parts for playback. The mobile apps provide track-management and performance functions and support DJing on a phone or tablet. A compatible controller connects to the mobile app over USB or Bluetooth. The free plan costs nothing and includes basic music-management and DJ features, 1,000 cloud tracks under stated conditions and one synced device. Paid plans add device allowances and, for Creative and Professional, Dropbox storage. The maker lists 24/7 inquiry-form support, but not telephone support. It has also reported a PRO DJ LINK vulnerability and recommends updating rekordbox and using password-protected Wi-Fi.
