Djay Iphone Split Output

Our reader’s letter today is from Gerald, who writes: “I have an Ion Discover DJ controller. I like it a lot. I used the tips I found about a DJ splitter cable (stereo – going out to two mono) but I am struggling with the software. I do not understand the routing nor how to set up the supplied MixVibes Cross LE software to allow me to use my splitter cables. I have a gig coming up and am trying to get all my gear set up. Can you help?”

Sep 28, 2012 What I do know is that Algoriddim's Djay. Apple Store online listing confirms name of new low-cost ‘iPhone SE’. Djay For iPad Adds Dual Stereo Output For Proper Song Cueing. TL;DR: Split output on DJay Pro doesn't seem to work with the Pioneer splitter cable that came with the DDJ-200. I just picked up the DDJ-200 a few weeks ago and I've been having a ton of fun spinning with DJay by Algoriddim on iOS.
For those of you just starting out with very cheap DJ gear, or an iPad, iPhone or even Android DJ program, you may be having great fun with your DJ program or basic controller, but wondering how the hell you get your headphones and your speakers plugged in and working independently. This ability to “cue” (to listen “secretly” to the other music source, the one that’s not playing) is fundamental to DJing, and cheap laptop controllers and all iOS/Android software doesn’t have it built-in.
If you’ve dug a bit deeper, you may have found out – like Gerald – that a DJ splitter cable can be your saviour. This semi-legendary “hack” works by splitting the stereo signal into two independent mono signals, one for each of your required outputs. Sure, you’re now playing in mono – as you plug your speakers into one of these outputs, and your headphones into the other – but it’s a little-known fact that most “real” club sound systems are in mono anyway, and it’s a very small price to pay to be able to DJ with the gear in front of you in exactly the same way all DJs do.
Trouble is, getting any old splitter cable and plugging it in and hooking up your speakers and headphones isn’t enough. Firstly, you need a DJ splitter cable (the one we recommend is here). This genuinely puts the left channel to one pseudo-stereo output and the right to the other. Having the kind of splitter cable sold to share a single headphones output on an iPod, for instance, won’t work because it sends the same thing down each of its outputs.
Secondly, you need to tell your software that’s what you’re doing. You have to find the audio output, audio routing or audio configuration settings and look for “mono split”, “split mono” or “DJ splitter” setting – the one that shows all audio going through the single PC/iOS headphones output and also shows both the speakers and headphones plugging into this. In your case, Gerald, MixVibes has a page here that tells you exactly how to do it.
And don’t forget, you have to plug the speakers and headphones into the correct sockets on your cable! If things aren’t behaving how you feel they should (eg the “cue” buttons are turning the main audio on or off, or the crossfader is affecting your headphones) try swapping the headphones and speakers over at the cable.
One final thing that sometimes confuses people about all of this is a question that goes something like: “But I’ve got four decks and a sampler, don’t I need five outputs, not two?” The reason the answer to this is “no” is that even if you had 99 decks (and Virtual DJ 7 can, folks!), the mixer section of your software mixes all of these inputs into just two – one for your headphones,a dn one for the speakers – so however complex your software audio is, you only ever need two outputs – and if you can’t afford, or simply don’t currently have, a pro DJ audio interface (or a controller with one built in), an audio splitter cable is a great way to get going, or a sensible backup to have too. I’ve had one kicking around in my gig bag for 10 years.

Algoriddim, known for its industry leading djay software, today released a brand new pro-level app for the iPhone, finally expanding djay Pro across Apple's full line of iOS and Mac devices.
djay Pro for iPhone, which brings the pro features djay is known for to a pocket-sized device that can go anywhere, follows the release of both djay Pro for iPad and djay Pro for Mac and comes as Algoriddim celebrates its 10 year anniversary.
The app has been built for iOS 10 and the iPhone 7, incorporating features like 3D Touch and haptic feedback. The interface will be immediately familiar to anyone who has used one of djay's other Pro apps, with support for two waveforms and up to four decks in either vertical or horizontal orientation.
The entire app has been optimized for the iPhone's interface and while simple enough for a beginner to use, it goes deep enough to suit professionals. Tools are layered to accommodate a smaller screen, but everything is still right at your fingertips.
'djay Pro has been a huge hit on Mac and iPad,' said Karim Morsy, CEO of Algoriddim. 'iPhone 7 has enabled us to completely transform the user experience of djay Pro by using haptic feedback and 3D Touch. It puts a fully-featured DJ system in your pocket so you can be creative no matter where you are.'
On the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, waveform haptic support means users can actually feel the beats when scratching and scrubbing music for a much more visceral music making experience. 3D Touch has also been incorporated in an innovative way, letting users set cue points without needing to lift a finger from the iPhone's screen.

Spotify integration, one of the features that really sets djay apart from other apps, is included as is full video integration for mixing and scratching two or more videos (including video shot directly with the iPhone's camera).

djay Pro for iPhone is available for a limited time launch price of $4.99. While built for the iPhone 7, it's compatible with the iPhone 5 and later. iOS 10 is required. [Direct Link]
To celebrate the release of djay Pro for iPhone, Algoriddim is discounting its other products. The original djay 2 app for iPhone and iPad is available for $0.99, while djay Pro for Mac is available for $39.99 and djay Pro for iPad is available for $9.99.
