Cross DJ - Music Mixer App Reviews

by VocaloidOverload

It’s a real shame that I have to pay to use SoundCloud go monthly, I’ve had CrossDJ for who knows how long without any problems. But this is irking me. I understand that the company isn’t exactly affiliated with SoundCloud but I believe that the least you could negotiate with is having users require a SoundCloud login every time CrossDJ opens, just not being forced to pay for Go. Please have CrossDJ run the way it was prior to the SoundCloud Go update so the audience can be comfortable again.

One, I wanted a refund for all the add-one I bought and they won’t give it to me so I don’t recommend it because I’m basically stuck with CrossDJ now

Second, I wanna record mixes I do with some songs I have but it won’t let me record them which why even bother buying the record option if it’s not even useable

Third, I would like this more if the sync was better because it only syncs at the first beat instead of the other for because I would want to mash songs together but I need them to sync on the right beat but I can’t

Four, I would like to be able to control the tempo of the sounds and samples provided because it’s hard trying to find a song with how the samples loop

So I really don’t recommend CrossDJ, the only reason why I got this is cause Edjing had to have a subscription.

I bought this DJ app just because they claimed you could use it in conjunction with Remixlive and drop samples from the DJ app directly into the Remixlive app to utilize the sound sample to remix live. After hours of trying and ensuring I had the current 11.2.1 update on my IPAD, I found all I could do with this DJ app was waste my time. After following the U Tube video instruction provide with the Remixlive app and purchased the additional features they state is needed, I found their claim about the two apps and their U Tube instructional video sucked. So I pretty much wasted my time and money. There’s a much better DJ app available for purchase and it doesn’t make any claims of compatibility with Remixlive. DJ Pro does the same thing when I use it with Remixlive and hit has more sound effect options.

CrossDJ is great for just getting down simple transitions and the feel of what a real deck feels like and works pretty well. But when connecting to sound cloud go about 1 out every 10 songs I try to play it will only play 1/4 or so of the song the cut off. And now whenever I try to play those songs it still cuts off at the same early point . I’ve tried deleting and redownloading but it keeps happening and oddly enough the same songs. I hope they can find a way to fix it cuz it always happens to be a new song I’ve been waiting to play and then I can’t even use the song .

UPDATE now can no longer load or play any song from soundcloud

I was expecting a Cross 4 look and feel. It come no where close to a pro app! Even Traktor has beaten you to the punch. Djay 2 is worlds beyond CrossDJ. Where is Cross 4 for iOS? This a toy app ... considering the new iPad Pros are as fast or faster than most MacBook Pros CrossDJ is lacking in design and functionality and it’s not due to CPU or GPU horsepower. DJ Streaming and ultra portable (re:iPad or iPhone)DJing in here but CrossDJ is last generation so 2012!
Let’s hope that Mixvibes sees this and realizes that they are missing an opportunity to be in the forefront as they have lost on the Mac/PC platform to Serato/Traktor/Rekordbox. Oh and get a real streaming service built in Spotify/Beatport/Tidal ....SoundCloud doesn’t cut it! Have a nice day! Contact me if you want a beta tester!

CrossDJ used to work fine. I could log into my soundcloud account, play my music, and it was fine. Now, I can’t even do that. When I hit the button, it just displays an ad for SoundCloud go+. There’s no way to play any tracks or even log in because the ridiculous ad is in the way. This completely negates the functionality of CrossDJ . Go back to the way it was or at least fix what’s left. This bug appears to be really old, so there’s no excuse to not fix it.

I’ve used mix vibes from the get go. It’s a good app for mixing on mobile devices. But man basic, rudimentary functions like RECORD? If you can’t record a set of wav or mp files...well unbelievably retarded in the worst way. I like CrossDJ and the sound of it. It works well but because of zero recording options I’m completely over it. I’ve been using DJDJ and it# the business for sure. Please developers make this happen. Put it in a Audiobus slot make it link compatible. Do something so CrossDJ can continue to grow. What’s seriously up with you people. Trippy weird developers with really strange reasoning. I like CrossDJ I really do. No Audiobus no recording no bujeno!

It’s cool because I could play my SoundCloud music and all that but what I hate is that when I use it for a very long time it doesn’t want to show my music anymore and I have to log out and sign in again and again. I have a ddj sb2 and I wanted to connect it to my phone and bought the external audio connection to react with the ddj sb2 and the buttons to the phone to set it to mixer doesn’t even show up and that made me a little more angrier

I would be a lot happy if they updated AGAIN

I got CrossDJ awhile back and I messed around with CrossDJ with music from SoundCloud but today I decided to use it until it said I needed SoundCloud Go+. I tried getting in with regular SoundCloud except I read SoundCloud Go+ allows users to access music from their library.

Is that just it? We’re supposed to get Go+ plus now to access music from there? If yes then why do we need Go+ now this time? What would be the reason to add it all of a sudden.

If that isn’t the case then something is wrong.

Really like CrossDJ and its simplicity to use. It would be 5 star if you could have a few preset songs you could have ready to play from cue at a moments notice. Use it to play music at my kids hockey games and would like to have those presets for a goal that could happen at any time while using the main screens for regular music play.

I’ve used CrossDJ for years. It’s been my go-to for music to play around with using SoundCloud. But the new update for the SoundCloud Go+ is making it to where I can’t use music at all from SoundCloud. I don’t have Go+ so it would be greatly appreciated if there was like an exit button. If there is one I can’t see it but please do something for it

So I baught the Gemini Mix 2 Go Pro. It was pretty gud. I mix dubstep pretty gud wif CrossDJ. It is gud. It is fun. Thank you for making this. It is gud.

The only problem is that it takes a long tine to seach for tracks to use. That is not gud. I know this will be hard to improve. but I hope you can make it somewhat better and more quiker in finding songs in soundcloud. maybe songs you hav used before can be seen in history as way to avoid searching during one of my performances. I do not know how Icloud works, since this is my first apple device and I dont really want to buy it wen I hav other alternatives

thank you once again there is still a lot to be improved. keep working on it, to seperate you DJ app apart from others. That would be gud.

If you hav gotten this far thank you for reading my review (I WUV HARDCORE DUBSTEP UwU [notice me senpai/ {developers}]) hopefully your app has brought you succes, and good lick to the future of your app!!!

****Update: Thanks for responding now that I know that it changes my review as once this is fixed it will be fantastic and I look forward to it......

- my original review: Do to copyright issues you can’t record any! File! I guess not unless it’s from your iPad mic?? I have a friends voice talking on mp3 file and it’s a no go, he wants me to use it! really sorry I spent $3.99 for upgrades

I fell into CrossDJ by accident. I was looking for something that I could use to simulate myself djing a gig. Something to just mess around with. I must say the more I learned about CrossDJ and after getting the full load I’m actually able to put my phone on airplane mode and do actual gigs just using my iPhone. I only wish I could listen to cue up my mixes other than that it makes djing pretty easy

Update of my review. Since this new update of CrossDJ I have been having an unusual amount of crashes while using CrossDJ . Don’t know what to do because it kills a party when it does it. We need a fix

by PrestoSkater

Edit:Everything I say doesn’t matter because they have it so you pay to use sound cloud it’s probably SoundCloud’s fault so I’m keeping it 4 stars but

You can’t loop more than 32 which is small, you have to double tap if and search twice to get the right results but it’s not a big deal if you know it, the most annoying thing is the music turns down to like the level if you were getting a text or something but it stays there even though I turn everything up it will be quiet as hell and then I have to restart CrossDJ , also CrossDJ will freeze sometimes and everything looks like it’s working but nothing happens then you have to restart CrossDJ again
Other than this good app and good thing it doesn’t charge to use SoundCloud

Edit: ^^^^^ironic that I typed that a long time ago lol now it’s pay to use

-One set price for everything.
-works like a regular mixer.
-hot ques feel inaccurate and offset. I find myself using hotcues alot when I dj. But when I am using CrossDJ. I feel like I have to avoid them or I'll be made out to be a fool.
-FX's have an input delay. Use the White Noise tool and you'll notice it immediately.
-Fx's are also hard to use right, seeing as they are noticeable soon as you press them.

footnote - I converted from popular platform EDjing because of a payment issue I had with their platform. This is a good app. I made stellar mix using it. If they could fix the little things CrossDJ would be a perfect 5 stars.

This is an excellent app, whether you are just doing for fun or are running a serious business. I have a Gemini MIX2GO Pro and it integrates perfectly. I will say, though, if you intend to use on an iPad 2, you might want to consider a newer device. CrossDJ requires iOS 9 to run, and that makes an iPad 2 very slow. Because of this, CrossDJ will crash every so often and will sometimes lag, but I also have it on my iPhone 5s running iOS 12.4.9 and It works fine. So to sum up, this is an excellent app that I would recommend to anyone, but remember: if you have an iPad 2, think twice. (Also, it’s a great investment to get the Value Pack. Always cheap and totally worth it.)

I’ve been playing out hip hop, House, techno, tech house, you name it for 25 years now. I have a family and young children, so I can’t just jump on my turntables or CDJ’s. Whenever I’d like to, so I just set up my sets in Cross DJ. See what works, see what doesn’t work and work around that. Then I can just go play any new tracks out and know exactly what’s up!! Word.......

by Steve75x

Would like to see more controllers or at least current version like ddj-sb is supported but not sb2? Works great w iPad mini 2 and mixtrack pro I. I use camera kit 3 that has built in power port. Charges iPad at the same time. App has been very reliable I load music onto iPad with iTunes before set and then put iPad in airplane mode during set.

I wanted to update that I have done several gigs now with this setup and no problems at all.

So I’ve been using CrossDJ for a year, with my Mix2go, it’s pretty awesome, but for some reason now I have to login through a website for SoundCloud, I logged in, but for some reason it shows this thing of a premium membership, but I ignored it. When it showed me that I can safely go back, it redirected me to songs, basically iTunes songs, and nothing showed up, I can’t figure out how to get my songs and the premium membership still showed up. I tried logging out and logging in again, but it did not work. I see that you guys normally listen to reviews, so is it ok if u guys respond to this? I don’t get it, I’m I supposed to pay now to use the SoundCloud on CrossDJ ??
