Deckadance is an advanced and intuitive software solution designed to help you bring out the DJ in you, by allowing you to mix music as creatively as you want, offering you numerous effects and functions to work with.

The interface of the program is quite complex, but it is nothing that you can’t handle, since aside from help bubbles, it also features a complex guide, thus making it approachable for both the beginners and the more experienced.

Deckadance can be switched between a two-deck and a four-deck interface, enabling you to use whichever best meets your needs, since the additional decks mean you can load two more songs.

For starters, you need to access your music folder by means of the ‘File Browser’ and add the audios you intend to work with, letting you create or import playlists, as well as save them to M3U or HTML format.

Once you have loaded the songs you want to use, you can shift your focus to the ‘Function Panel’ which comprises most of the components and features that you will need. The six buttons at the top allow you to switch between the available sections, specifically ‘Mixer’, ‘Effects’, ‘Sampler’, ‘Peak Scope’, ‘VST Host’ and ‘Gross Beat’.

The ‘Mixer’ lets you adjust the ‘Gain’, ‘Equalizer’, ‘Filters’, ‘Cue’, ‘Deck Level’ or ‘Cross Fader’, while the ‘Effects’ offer user-controllable ‘Flanger’, ‘Phaser’ and ‘Delay’ features, enabling you to easily turn them off.

The ‘Sampler’ tab can assist you in loading your sample ‘Bank’ in XML format, which can later be used as loops or one-shot sounds. The ‘Peak Scope’ is meant to visually beatmatch your music, whereas the ‘VST Host’ supports loading one plugin for each deck.

The ‘Gross Beat’ section helps you alter the pitch, position and volume of your songs in real time, with countless presets to resort to, grouped into categories such as ‘Turntablist’, ‘Momentary’, ‘Stutter’, ‘Patterns’ or ‘Gates’.

To conclude, Deckadance is an efficient and intuitive music mixing instrument that enables you to put your DJ abilities into practice, allowing you to work with countless tools and features to generate original sounding songs.
