VirtualDJ
VirtualDJ is DJ software for mixing and performing, for users ranging from beginners to professional DJs.

The software mixes audio and video, supports karaoke playback, and includes video effects, transitions, and on-screen graphics. It advertises plug-and-play support for more than 300 controllers and supports DVS equipment. Broadcasting options include Shoutcast and Icecast radio, PC-to-PC broadcasts, podcast streaming, and video broadcasts to social platforms. VirtualDJ also describes streaming support for SoundCloud and Deezer, plus Ableton Link and ReWire integrations.
