Hi, I am DJ Kool George 

And I would like to share my experience in mixing on touch screen? it is way more easy than you think.    

How did I start mixing music on touch screen?

At the beginning of my DJ experience (since 1990's) I was mixing music on all the systems starting with vinyl, big magnetic tapes, cassette tapes, CDJs. Everything changed In 2015 when I have purchased a multi-touch laptop (Acer R7) and love it. For traveling convenience, I have tried to find a good mixing software for Windows to be able to mix on touch screen directly, without using an external mixer, so I have downloaded Virtual DJ software and start mixing. 

I have started to mix on Virtual DJ 7'th version first, but it was not working very well and does not have multi-touch capabilities. After that I upgraded to the 8'th version and I have noticed that it is a complete change. The software run smoother and faster without glitches and the sound is much more clear. I am amazed on how Virtual DJ grows and upgrades, been faster and smoother every day...

Since I have graphic design skills and ideas, I have started to develop skins for Virtual DJ software been able to use them on my multi-touch laptop. The good thing is that mixing on touch screen it is way more convenient than mixing on CDJ's as you can travel and be a "mobile DJ" without the need of any hardware (external controller or mixer) plus you don't need to carry all your CD's. 


Are you curious on how can you start  DJing, but don't have money for DJ equipment?


GOOD NEWS... You can DJ on touch screen, without a DJ controller or other hardware, except for a little USB sound card to be able to monitor the sound in the headphones. Let's see how:


If you want to mix music directly on a touch screen, then firstly, you need to have a Windows touch screen laptop, tablet or touch monitor and second of all you need to have a software with multi-touch capabilities...

Such a software is Virtual DJ and you can download and use it for free in windows 10 and 11.


So, if you mix music directly on touch screen, then you will not need an external mixer, and that means that you don't need to buy any license for the Virtual DJ software if you don't use a DJ controller... and so you can use it for free for personal use.

And so because Virtual DJ default interface, was not designed for touch screen mixing, then, all you need is an additional interface as a plug in, just like the ones I have designed for touch screen mixing, in order to mix directly on touch screen.

Now, to add my multi touch interfaces to Virtual DJ software (that is installed on your computer), you need to buy this skins pack and you will have 10 touch skin options... 

Down below are some of my best skins made for Virtual DJ and some of their key features are:

Ergonomic layout

Quick access to effects and loops

Compatible with the latest versions of Virtual DJ

Ideal for live performances, parties, and studio sessions


WHAT IS NEW INTO SOME OF THIS INTERFACES? ... STEM SEPARATION


VirtualDJ first introduced real-time stems separation back in 2020, and started this revolution of DJing. Since then, the hardware market kept evolving, opening up new possibilities of what can be reasonably done with consumer laptops. Today, VirtualDJ uses the latest Stems 2.0 engine, that offers the best quality in the market for stem separation, with incredible clarity on acapellas! 

Also some of the skins have built in a 20 band LED spectrum display and a 10 band equalizer which considerably enhances the sound (especially if your final amplifier does not have one :)

I guess if you want to start DJing, this will be the easiest and cheapest way to do it...
