Scratch DJ Academy MIX! helps users create incredible mixes quickly, saving the many hours spent searching for the right tracks. It analyzes users' music libraries and identifies the tempo in beats per minute (BPM) and musical phrasing (bars) allowing these tracks to be perfectly aligned for mixing.
The Software also detects the musical key of each song, which is the secret to "harmonic mixing." Based on both the tempo and key information, Scratch DJ Academy MIX! intelligently highlights all the music in your library which works best with your selected track. The mixes can be previewed and adjusted with the addition of a select number of scratch effects, created by the Scratch DJ Academy instructors.

Just Released! Kid Nepro Arturia Jupiter-8V Collection. A cool mix of 100 new virtual analog patches that will spice up your Arturia Jupiter-8V.
Their 5th release for Arturia's V Synths following our Minimoog V, ARP2600, Prophet V and Moog Modular V sound libraries. Compared to other analog synths manufactured during that time period, the Jupiter-8 is produced with a higher quality and built to last. Compared to the Curtis chips, used by Oberheim and Sequential, the failure rate of the Roland IR series IC's used in the JP-8, is very low and as a result many of the 2000 original units are still being used today by a wide range of keyboard players and producers.
