We’re enhancing the creative possibilities offered by our professional DJ application, rekordbox, by introducing industry-first technology, Vocal Position Detection, and support for the Beatsource LINK streaming service for open-format DJs.

Using rekordbox for Mac/Windows (ver. 6.0.1) with the Creative subscription plan, you can see when all the vocals will drop in a track by just glancing at the waveform. This is possible thanks to AI technology with deep-learning capabilities embedded in the software’s new music analysis algorithm, which we co-developed with Japanese tech company Qosmo. Detecting the position of vocals in the music with a high level of accuracy, rekordbox shows you exactly when to expect them – enabling you to stay ahead of the game when mixing and avoid vocal clashes.
