There’s something to be said for software that does one thing well. Scratch DJ Academy MIX addresses a very specific need: it automatically analyzes songs--especially dance-friendly electronic tunes--for key and beats per minute, and then offers a limited selection of tools for joining matching songs together in DJ-style mixes.
And it does this quite well. Import songs into the MIX library, and after just a moment, the app brings up the tune’s BPM and key. Drag a song into the mix list, and the app highlights other songs that match either or both of those criteria. Pick a match-friendly tune, and the app intelligently blends the end of the first song into the beginning of the second, buffing over minor differences in tempo with a surprisingly successful beat-matching system. For further control, you can choose when in the first tune the second tune begins, adjust the length of the crossfade, choose the crossfade type, and even nudge the second track in 1/32 increments in case the two don’t line up exactly right.
