Pioneer has today at NAMM 2102 announced that its beginner’s controller, the DDJ-ERGO-V, will soon be compatible with Algoriddim’s increasingly popular djay platform for Mac from Algoriddim.
That means that not only does the DDJ-ERGO-V now come with Virtual DJ and Serato Intro in the box, and Traktor Pro 2 compatibility via its own mapping, but it also now works with arguably the fourth largest DJ software as well.
As djay is only a two-deck system, this will only allow you to DJ with two decks on the DDJ-ERGO-V, and we wait with curiosity to see how well they’ve matched djay’s novel effects system to the controls on the DDJ-ERGO-V.
Here’s Pioneer’s official promo video:
