Intelligent Lighting

Experience next-gen DMX lighting control with autonomous lightshows powered by VirtualDJ, Traktor Pro 3/4, or our built-in music player.

DMXDesktop's DJ Mode brings intelligent, autonomous lighting to your fingertips. Whether you're a DJ mixing tracks or just playing music, DJ Mode creates custom, time-coded light shows automatically tailored to your tracks and setup.

No complex programming required. Just load your music, configure your preferences, and let DMXDesktop handle the rest. The intelligent engine analyzes your audio and creates stunning synchronized light shows in real-time.

What You Need for DJ Mode

DJ Mode requires one of the following audio sources to generate intelligent lightshows:

VirtualDJ

Full integration via our plugin or OS2L protocol. Works with all VirtualDJ versions that support plugins.

Traktor Pro 3 or 4

Dedicated plugin integration for Traktor Pro 3 and Traktor Pro 4. Earlier Traktor versions (Pro 2 and below) are not supported.

Built-in Music Player

No DJ software? No problem. Our built-in 2-deck music player gives you full DJ Mode support. Just load your tracks and play — the lights follow automatically.

Don't have VirtualDJ or Traktor? The built-in music player is the easiest way to experience DJ Mode without any additional software.
