Thanks to Mojaxx for the enlightenment.
So, this gets me thinking, it will be great if we can package the stems files of our choice in Engine DJ. It turns out Virtual DJ has that option as explained in the video below. This also allows for use of original studio created stem files in lieu of the more inferior AI files.
Frankly, I do feel like the EDJ programming staff have their hands full at the moment. So, maybe it’s not a good time for a feature request.
It’s always a good time for a feature request. Specially that community will provide further insight in the open debate on the subject and vote for the feature.
I’ve mentioned exactly that on here a while ago. As the separated files are encrypted by the Engine desktop software, presumably that encryption could be applied to files we bring in ourselves. It would also enable mix and match for best quality (i.e. drums from Serato, vocals from VDJ).
Can’t vote anyway ![]()
I think stems analysis as an add-in / choicemodel (think OpenRouter for LLM) would be brilliant. This would open up opensource additions and EngineDj programmers can focus on core rather than competing on stems (which in my opinion such a small part of djying, but can take a big chunk of programmer resources)
