CROSS v 2.5 Jul 26, 2013 MacOS X Intel

Download Update

Blend tracks seamlessly, create mash-ups in seconds and record smooth mixtapes. Indeed, the 2.5 version features build-in key detection and control, new full screen collection and more.

Accurate Key detection for smooth harmonic mixes
There's accurate build-in key detection right in Cross DJ: no need for third party software anymore. Key can be displayed in classic notation or harmonic code, making it easy to find matching tracks.
Key control and dynamic display
Key is just as important as BPM. Cross DJ displays it straight into the deck header. Match it automatically to the master deck, or change the pitch manually by semi-tones. The dynamic key display reflects those changes, and turns white when in harmony.
Browsing by key is now super easy: key compatible tunes are highlighted in bright orange. Focus on other search criteria, and the key still pops up.
Easy browsing with new full screen collection
Selection is the heart of DJing. The collection view is now more intuitive than ever with the new mini-players. It gives more space to browse tracks, while keeping an eye on what’s playing. Additionally, you can now drag and drop tracks between players and samplers - useful when you have only one turntable or CDJ.

Peak view markers : better understanding of track structure
DJs are used to production software grids to understand a track’s structure. Cross DJ is the first DJ application to show those markers on the track’s peak view, making it easy to mix musical phrases.
Mapping for Pioneer DDJ-SX and more
Mixvibes’ philosophy is to be as open as possible. Cross DJ 2.5 introduces one to one mappings of the latest popular controllers:
Pioneer DDJ-SX
Numark 4TRAK, N4 and Mixdeck Quad
Vestax Spin 2
NI Kontrol S4 and X1

What else is new in this update?
Add the possibility to assign several functions to one MIDI control.

CROSS v 2.4 May 7, 2013 MacOS X Intel

Download Update

It features 4 full decks and a redesigned sampler.

CROSS v 2.3 Feb 24, 2013 MacOS X Intel

Download Update

Cross 2.3 works with the complete Pioneer range (CDJ2000nexus, CDJ2000, CDJ900, 850, 400 and 350) with a super easy setup. All you need is your laptop and 2 USB cables - no additional soundcard required.

If you add the video plug-in, Cross transforms the CDJ in a powerful audio/video player.

Also available in this update :

Slip mode : keep your groove when jog looping, using locators or jog scratching.

Start/Brake time settings of each player

CROSS v 2.0 Jul 24, 2012 MacOS X UB

Download Update

8 pad Sampler: Sampling is and has always been a fundamental component of modern music composing and performance. Cross 2.0 offers 8 sampler pads which opens a new door for all types of DJs. The BPM of samples can be linked with the speed of a player. You can now browse and manage samples exactly like tracks, meaning you can rapidly organize and load sample banks to the pads.

FX: 14 ultra-precise audio effects are now controlled with two parameters. FX can either be applied to the player, the sampler pads or the master output. The low pass and high pass "bi-filter" directly accessed with a separate control in the mixer.

8 Locators: Locators now serve as hot cues or can also trigger a preset loop. This professional option mimics the standard Pioneer CDJ behavior.

Crossfader Assigning: Players and samplers are assigned by default to crossfader but can also bypass it to directly feed the master output.

Ergonomics: The layout engine has been reviewed and improved. A modular software appearance has been developed with extra care to rapidly hide or display the relevant tools needed for a particular mix.

Quantize: A professional live performance feature which corrects human rhythmic errors. Meaning that if you play a sample slightly early or late relative to the beat it will be synced automatically to it. The quantizing granularity values range from 1/16 beat to 16 beats and can be applied to either a player or a sampler. When activated, rhythmic errors disappear and the audio mix flows seamlessly.

A new MIDI Hot plug function allows the DJ to connect on the fly any MIDI controllers.
