PCDJ DEX RE

Whether you are a professional or an amateur DJs, you must be on the lookout for a specialized mixing application that is both easy to operate and feature-rich. One of the applications you can take for a spin is DEX 3 RE.

The main purpose of DEX 3 RE is to avoid overcrowing the interface and keep options at hand. Its one-window interface relies on a standard two-deck layout but without leaving aside important controls, such as loops and cue points, an equalizer, key lock, automatic BPM sync, and several audio effects to enhance the sound. A crossfader is placed right in the center, between the two decks, right next to the headset control button.

One handy and worth-mentioning feature is the auto-mixer, which applies different effects to mix the current list of songs using beat-matching whenever possible. DEX 3 RE also provides an option to mix the next song only.

The application's audio library makes it possible for you to manage your song database, create a favorite list and explore your computer to add new songs. Some of the most widely-used formats are supported, namely MP3, OGG, WMA, WAV, FLAC, and more. You can add new items from the Pulselocker, which is a large database of songs that also works in offline mode.

DEX 3 RE also features support for karaoke and allows you to decide when the lyrics window is shown and where it is placed. The playlist can be sorted, and the order of the songs can be easily modified. Mixes you create can be recorded and exported to WAV or AIFF format.

Leaving a few more things to be discovered by you, one can say that DEX 3 RE is a good choice for beginners who need the time to get accustomed to a new software. Along the fast learning curve, its familiar look, auto-mixing, and its organizational skills recommend it.
