Numark Mixdeck Quad
The Numark Mixdeck Quad works with iPad and djay software, but it’s only one of many choices nowadays.

Digital DJ Tips reader Paul writes: “Please can I have your take on iPad controllers and Algoriddim’s djay software? I have the iPad and an thinking of waiting for the Numark iDJ Flex to be launched, just don’t know what to go for. Just want it for house parties and BBQs.”

Digital DJ Tips says:

Algoriddim’s djay software is a great match for the iPad so you’ve got no worries there. You’ve got a few choices nowadays, including the Numark iDJ Pro and the Vestax Spin2, to name just a couple. Even traditionally non-iPad controllers are wrestlig in on the action, thans to “backward engineering” involving the Apple Camera Connection Kit (I’m thinking specifically of these Pioneer controllers).

However, rather than detail the pros and cons of the units I have tried (as I haven’t spent much time with any of them), I thought this would be a nice one to throw over to the readers.

So, readers: Do you use Algoriddim’s djay software with the iPad? And if so what controller do you use? What are the pros/cons of your particular unit? And would you buy it again? Please share your thoughts in the comments.

Please leave your answers for Paul in the comments below.
