Ok i’ve just succeed in access ing my nas music folder from Djay, using Documents from Reedle ! In fact you only forgot to say that you must use the ‘Side View’ feature of the iPad (i was not aware of that !), then have the 2 apps running then just drag and drop files from Documents to Djay!
Thanks for this tip
Yes - this is a BIG problem since I rely on the Files option for both cloud collections and importing music WITHOUT using iTunes, which I have all but gotten rid of. If there are no plans to put this back, I will be asking for a refund soon.
I canceled my subscription. I don’t need looper or video as I have separate apps for those. The lack of the “Files” option is a deal breaker. This is a major step backward for Algoriddim.
So far Algoriddim has consistently been releasing great software on iOS. Native? Not so. There might be a new Traktor version coming up. Or not. Or it might be abandoned again. Who knows?
Their track record (sorry) for DJ software on this platform is not great though.
And what are you talking about with regards to older versions? If you bought them you can download them. You just can’t buy them anymore.
I also don’t have a problem with the subscription model. Especially the annual price of 40 bucks looks fine to me. It’s the priorities that have me slightly worried.
The thing is, I’m not interested in content at all. Video is not my thing and I already have Ableton so I don’t care for the sample library or looper. That might change in the future, but for me right now these parts of the app are worth nothing.
Personally I feel the new version only has the added benefit of custom selection filters. That’s all. And even that feature feels half baked (do you need beta-testers guys?).
I hope Algoriddim won’t forget their roots and spend a fair amount of dev time on features that 99% of the clients use; improving finding and mixing music live.
IMHO DJ Player Pro has a lot of real pro features. It supports better search, different key notation systems (including Camelot), superb cue point storage (including loops and auto-outro looping), easy realtime jumping and moving of loops, syncing and sound quality is second to none, etc. etc.
Other DJ apps support Apples AU system which let you use third party effects. Even some of the really limited apps are Camelot compatible.
Like I’ve said before, I think Algoriddim is dropping the ball on basic DJ features while creating video and sequencer stuff…
