Loading songs

There are many ways to load a song from the integrated iTunes library onto djay’s virtual turntables.
Loading a song using drag & drop
To load a song from the integrated iTunes library, you can simply drag the song with the mouse and drop it onto one of the turntables.
You can also drag any media files from the Finder onto the turntables.
Using keyboard shortcuts to load a song
When a song is selected in the integrated iTunes library, you can also load it with the following keyboard shortcuts.
Loading a song using double-click
Double clicking on a song in djay's music library will load the selected song on the turntable that is "less" active than the other.
For example, if the Mixer's crossfader is positioned all to the right (so only turntable 2 is heard through the output), djay will load the song on turntable 1. This is especially useful in a live setting, where one turntable is playing and you can quickly pre-listen to files on the other turntable by double clicking the songs in your library. Note: By holding the option (ALT) key while double clicking it will load the song on the active side.
By default, djay automatically starts playing the song after you load it. This behavior can be changed in djay’s General preferences. Here you can also adjust the the start/stop latency of the turntable.
