A computer application known as DJ software is used by disc jockeys to mix music. In addition to allowing the inclusion of sound effects, loops, and samples to build new mixes, it allows DJs to manage the playback of digital audio files. It is available in a variety of formats and can be used in both personal and professional settings. These formats include standalone apps, plug-ins for well-known music production software, and hardware controllers that are directly connected to computers or portable devices.

Since it enables DJs to manage every part of the mix with a single device, controller DJing has grown to be the most well-liked style of DJing in recent years. DJs who use controllers can alter the way audio files are played back and incorporate sound effects, loops, and samples using turntables, CDJs, or digital mixing boards. Hardware utilised in DJing is referred to as mixers. With the mixer, you may combine songs, divide a single audio source into two or more channels for playback on various speakers or other devices, change volume levels, pan between left and right stereo output, and more.

A DJ mixer (or audio interface) can be connected to media players, which are computers that let you play digital music files that are saved on the device. DJs utilise turntables, a type of media player, to play vinyl records. The turntable has two functions: it can play the record on its platter and allow DJs to manipulate it using slip mats or an attached stylus to scratch tracks, make loops. A broad variety of associated accessories that enhance the music experience can be used with DJ software.
