Hi, I use Djay on my iPhone, with Spotify, I was notified that Spotify wouldn’t work in 2020, but mine still does work (on my phone) do you think this setup would work for me, thinking it was Algorithm that stopped Spotify thus affecting this controller, and being as my Djay app still connects to Spotify I could do this??? What do you think?

[@jamiewoodall2425]

SUPER HELPFUL! ...You saved me just before a gig where I will ABSOLUTELY need access to Spotify. It may be soul-crushing (at times) but some of those events pay the bills and make it possible for me to play the music I really LOVE! Boom!

Perfect setup Thank you DJKitUK - (here in the US) I have a DJJ - SB3 hooked up to my IPAD running djay pro trail ( to check out all the features) - seems to work well. Mapping to the controller is great, not all perfect but all the main controls match up perfectly on the hardware to the software. enough to get going and DJ! Getting the music into the IPAD to play (without any streaming is a bit cumbersome because of DRM's , but that's another discussion.

[@carlos_mann]

Is there a way I can do this with a Galaxy Note 9, and Serato DJ Pro? Using a Serato based controller? Maybe by downloading the software on to the phone, external HD, or a micro SD memory card, and plug the controller into an OTG plug into the phone, and run the software from the phone? And have my own music already save on to the phone, instead of using a Streaming service..... I know there won't be enough power to use the controller but as long as I can run a Pro software like this what I am wondering. I've been searching for ways to DJ with my phone and seeing you do this gave me some ideas..... The equipment I would be using is a Galaxy Note 9, Serato DJ Pro, DDJ-SX or the Roland DJ 808, and the music that is already saved on my phone.

Hey Guys, could you help me with my questions? 1. Which wall charger should you use for this? I tried 5V 1A, 5V 1.5A and 5V 2A. And all of them seem not to supply enough power to start the DDJ 400 (its lights just flash once while plugging in and then its off again). So I am going to buy an 18W charger today, which might fix the issue. 2. Is there anything I need to setup in the iphone djay app? and do I need the pro versionof the app? Thank you for your help and have a nice day!

Can you connect the controller to the PC that runs Spotify?

It's a mono signal when you use the headphone splitter.

Which controller would be best buy and most stable for working with Djay for iOS on an iPad: Reloop Beatpad 2 or Pioneer DDJ-400?

can i ask for what name for the adaptor for andriod to ddj400?

[@ervicaquino]

I've been using with DJAY on an iPad Pro USB-C for about 3 months. Problem with the 400 is that after 30-45 minutes, the audio out on the unit cuts out and you have to disconnect and reconnect it for it to work again. I don't have this issue when connected to a computer. Pioneer says they don't officially support DJAY on the DDJ-400 so they can't help with it. Others on the Algoriddim forums have had the same issue. I've tried using the DDJ-400 on an iPad Mini with the USB-3 to lighting adapter plugged into a USB power charger and I get the "DDJ-400 takes too much power" error. Ended up getting a 200 to use the iPad. I really like the form factor of these in that they slip into a backpack and can be taken anywhere for practice.
