DJ Mixer Express for Mac Editor's Review

Mix your own music with professional results with this really cool Mac app.

 Music is a huge part of my life. I've done studio work. I've recorded three albums of material, NONE of which are available anywhere...thank God; and I currently sing in Church as part of its Praise and Worship Team. When I do listen to music though, some of my creative juices start to flow; and you start to hear things in the music that may or may not be there, but could be if only... If only... and that's why I like DJ Mixer Express for Mac. Its one of the best apps I know of to help you mix down tracks.

DJ Mixer Express is affordable and easy-to-use DJ software. It helps you create your own custom DJ-style music. The applications features include Dual player decks, automatic mixing, automatic BPM detection, automatic tempo control and one-click instant beat-matching synchronization. It has crossfading, seamless looping, automatic-gain, master-tempo, vinyl simulation, multiple effects and support mix your music from iTunes. Once you find your "inner voice," you can easily express it by applying any one of a number of audio effects.

The app can record your mixes to WAV/AIFF formats and when you're done, you can burn them to CDs. With DJ Mixer Express, you can mix your music files with professional precision. Most anyone can mix their music with the app's simple interface in just minutes. DJ Mixer Express for Mac is simple enough for the beginners, but is professional-level software used by 1000's of DJs in some of the most influential venues worldwide. Whether your songs come from iTunes or from your hard drive, all you need to do is drag and drop files onto the mixing deck or into the playlist; and you're ready to go! 

App Pro’s: Very affordable 

App Con’s: Express version only offers 2 mixing tracks and 3-band EQ 

Conclusion: Whether you are an aspiring DJ or an already experienced DJ, you will find that DJ Mixer Express, lets you do mixes in a way you never experienced before. You can easily complete AutoMix. Its automatic beat & tempo detection allows you to easily match the playback speed of two songs for a perfect transition. automatic beat-matched crossfading, automatic pitch matching, seamless looping, automatic BPM counter, key lock (master-tempo), multiple effects and many other features are all possible with DJ Mixer Express.

The one thing that you really need to have access to, however, is the right kind of music for this kind of application. You also have to have an ear for how two disparant or similar songs can fit together. That more than anything else is perhaps the wild card here.

The software...yeah, its awesome and easy to use. However, you have to have the ear for the beats, you have to feel the rhythm. This is perhaps the most difficult part and one that may take you a few tries to get right. However, you WILL have an awesome time pairing songs in your library together, seeing if they fit, playing with the effects, etc.
