Get the Latest PCDJ RED App Version Update – Download Today!

It was only just yesterday that we posted a preview of the new RED Mobile 3 DJ software . It’s now available to download!

RED Mobile 3 is a free upgrade for RED Mobile 2 customers. While RED Mobile 3 will not install over top of RED Mobile 2, it will pick up your RED Mobile 2 activation so it will open fully licensed and ready to mix. You’ll want to view the introduction to RED Mobile 3 tutorial video at the bottom of this post, and also take a look at how you can import playlists from RED Mobile 2 into RED Mobile 3 (The video showcases DEX 3, but the import function works the same way).

As DEX 3 DJ mixing software users already know, the new version 3 platform is a major core-upgrade to RED Mobile in every sense of the word. Version 3 is the new foundation for our next generation of free updates — and we’re just getting started.

RED Mobile 3 – Major Notable Changes:

The software was completely re-engineered with extensive parts rewritten from scratch.
Extensive performance optimizations and stability improvements
Graphics engine completely rewritten
Optimizations to allow for up to one million tracks in the database
You can view list in 2 distinct modes: full mode and simple/table mode (the old way)
* To change between normal and list-mode right-click on the list and select “Toggle view mode” from the popup menu
* You can: change columns order, hide/show columns, resize columns, lock sorting or resizing, sort by clicking on the columns (and revert the sorting by clicking on the “No.” column header)
Retina support for the latest Macs (with dynamic on-off when needed)
Dynamic skin resize (including full screen native Mac support)
Controllers engine rewritten (the old scripts are 99% compatible – no changes needed in most scripts)
NEW Sidelist/automix list
Album artwork in lists/explorer (and optionally over the jog-wheels)
Tracks’ tags are always used (even when browsing disk folders)
Sound display rendering greatly improved (RMS waveform + rhythm waveform overlapped)
Sound display blinks when the track is close to the end (<30 seconds left)
Setting to enable/disable resetting of pitch after auto-mix
iTunes integration completely rewritten (much faster and better, tracks retain original order in playlists, etc)
Added compatibility with iTunes 12 (and fixed crash when loading huge iTunes libraries)
You can right click in the History list and you can filter by specific date
Tags support greatly improved for both reading and writing (you can now edit tags for: mp3, m4a, mp4, wav, aif, flac, ogg, wma; note that most video files (except for mp4) don’t support tags so no tag editing is possible on mov, mkv, cdg-zip, au, etc)
Changed functionality: you can also scroll the lists by dragging them from the right side (very useful for touch-screen users); drag&drop still works if you drag a track from the left side; (left 75% drag&drop / right 25% scroll)
Mac: the app is now 64-bit (MacOSX 10.7+)
Multiple search improvements (including below:)
Added setting to Preferences: “Search in the middle of words” (eg. to allow you to find “bcd” in “abcde”)
Added new keyboard shortcuts:
– adds all inserted tracks in the current list to the sidelist
– <Cmd/Ctrl + A> inserts/clears all tracks in the list
– inserts the current track selected in the list
– <Cmd/Ctrl + Up/Down arrow keys> drags/moves the current selected track up or down
– <Cmd/Ctrl + PageUp/PageDown> or <Cmd/Ctrl + Home/End> drags/moves the current selected track to top/bottom of the list
Select tracks: you can use the <mouse + Shift> or <mouse + Cmd/Ctrl> keys
Select tracks: you can use the keyboard (eg. <Shift + Up/Down> arrow keys)
Lots of bug fixes and small improvements
