Controllers

Bring your own controller.

Eleven Pioneer DJ, AlphaTheta, and Numark controllers have built-in mappings. If yours is not listed, Ora DJ walks you through a MIDI mapping one control at a time and saves it for the next session.

Performance controls

Keep the controls you use close at hand.

The deck and mixer support the parts of a transition that need more than a play button.

Cue loops and auto loops

Save a loop as a cue and return to it, or set an auto loop by beat length while the deck is playing.

Flexible audio routing

Assign separate stereo output pairs to Master, Headphones/Cue, and Booth. Ora DJ remembers the routing for each audio device. Separate cue and booth pairs need a device with enough outputs.

MIDI Clock output

Send the master deck tempo to a hardware synth or drum machine through a MIDI output on macOS. Start or re-sync its sequence on the next bar.

Effects

Choose the effect for the moment.

Route regular FX to a deck channel or the master. The mixer also has five channel effects controlled from the channel FX knob.

Keyboard

No controller with you? Play from the keyboard.

Deck A sits on the bare keys and Deck B is one Shift away: hot cues on the number row, loops under your right hand, play on Space. Hold a modifier to see its layer. Remap any key and save the layout as a profile, or switch to a Rekordbox-style layout.

Hold Shift, or press any key

Click the map, then press keys. This is the default layout on a Mac keyboard.

Plan and rehearse your set in one place.

Use a built-in controller mapping or map your own MIDI controller, then test transitions while the set is still taking shape.
