The public release of DEX 3.6 VDJ mixing software is now available for download.
The latest iteration of our top solution for professional DJs that mix all types of media is ready for download.
We popped the hood and tinkered with a few core components, such as the refactoring of the ‘loading engine’. This allows DEX 3.6 to support more audio, video and karaoke file variations, and loading tracks to the decks has been sped up as well. Many underlying performance improvements have been made to ensure more responsiveness while mixing than ever before.
Freshly added in DEX 3.6 is ‘video link‘ — providing the ability to automatically load and play video clips and VJ loops when mixing only audio tracks. ‘Video Link’ benefits DJs that wish to transition seamlessly from mixing music videos to audio tracks, while still providing visuals on the mixed output display for the audience.
DEX 3.6 includes the latest Pulselocker music subscription service SDK, providing various upgrades in performance and search. Search-as-you-type is now enabled when searching Pulselocker’s massive 44 million track library, and results display quicker than in previous versions. Various bugs were fixed in the Pulselocker SDK, including a couple reported errors when syncing tracks to your local hard drive for offline use.
We’ve swatted a few annoying bugs as well, including a memory issue present when playing music videos for long periods of time in succession and an issue prevented certain supported file types from loading into the decks. Some users were also reporting the inability to re-set the auto-out cue point for automix, which has also been addressed in DEX 3.6.
