IK Multimedia DJ Rig Free

DJ Rig Free is described as the perfect companion for the soon to be released iRig MIX portable DJ mixer for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad.

DJ Rig Free offers double-deck DJ mixing with instant song-playing from the device’s music library, with automatic tempo sync and beat matching.

Controls include tempo controls for fine tuning BPM adjustments, multiple crossfader curves, a waveform display that can be dragged and zoomed, and a scratch engine modelled on real deck behaviour with IK’s CloneDeck technology and a live recorder.

Further augmenting the app’s capabilities, DJ Rig Free also includes a beat-synced effect (filter) with XY touch interface and a sampler machine with a set of 9 sample pads and one sample bank. These can be used to enhance the remixing performance or record and play your own samples on top of your mixes. More effects (up to 12) and sample banks (up to 15) can be added via in-app purchase by upgrading to the full version of DJ Rig or getting the Pro-bundle pack, which also includes multiple (4) visual cue-points.

DJ Rig also includes X-Sync. It is possible  to synchronize the app’s audio with any other external audio source. This can be a second iOS device, but DJ’s can now also sync to external CD and MP3 players.
