Apple Music 整合多款音樂工具，讓 DJ 利用其曲目目錄創作混音
Apple Music 宣布將其曲目目錄與多款音樂工具整合，讓用戶能以平台內的音樂資源製作混音套組。這次整合作品包含 Algoriddim 的 djay Pro 軟件，以及多個硬件平台如 AlphaTheta、Serato、inMusic 的 Engine DJ、Denon DJ、Numark 和 RANE DJ。 這項新功能有望吸引更多 DJ 使用 Apple Music 的 1 億多首歌曲目錄，同時亦為有志成為 DJ 的用戶提供試玩這些工具的機會。 自 2021 年開始提供 DJ Mixes 以來，Apple Music 已在平台上新增了數千個混音作品。這次 Apple Music 再進一步，推出全新的「用 Apple Music 做 DJ」頁面，內含適合 DJ 的編輯精選播放列表、展示 DJ 軟硬件合作夥伴的策展頁面，以及用於靈感或練習的混音範例。 值得注意的是，不同的音樂串流平台近年來都積極推出更多創作及混音工具。例如，SoundCloud 在 2024 年宣布與六款工具整合，用於編輯、混音及創建自定義樣本。而去年《華爾街日報》亦報導 Spotify 正考慮推出允許用戶混音歌曲的工具及訂閱服務。另一方面，像 Point72 Ventures 支持的 Hook 等初創公司，也在嘗試通過應用程式打造合法混音市場。 香港月費：免費試用一個月，其後每月 HK$68 / 每年 HK$680，另設家庭計劃和學生優惠 立即訂閱 香港 Apple 官網售價 HK$4,599 立即購買 Amazon 優惠價 US$464（約 HK$3,610，需要代運）｜原價 US$549 立即購買 Apple Music is integrating with music tools to allow DJs to create mixes using its catalog | TechCrunch Apple AirPods Max 支援無損音質、超低延遲，但要有線使用 Apple Music 無損音效怎樣開啟？收費多少？有什麼好處？ 聽歌APP比較｜7大音樂串流平台比較！月費最平低至$16.3／限時聽歌＋煲劇組合優惠／免費試用3個月 Apple Music 無損音效怎樣開啟？收費多少？有什麼好處？ 緊貼最新科技資訊、網購優惠，追隨 Yahoo Tech 各大社交平台！ 🎉📱 Tech Facebook： 🎉📱 Tech Instagram： 🎉📱 Tech WhatsApp 社群： 🎉📱 Tech WhatsApp 頻道： 🎉📱 Tech Telegram 頻道：

DJ with Apple Music lets you use your subscription with Serato, Rekordbox, Engine DJ and more
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. In recent years there's been something of a disconnect between the universal ease of streaming music for listening purposes and the convoluted process of streaming music for the purpose of DJing. That's not to say that streaming isn't a thing in the DJ realm – the likes of Beatport, Beatsource and Soundcloud each offer streaming subscriptions aimed specifically at DJs, and AlphaTheta's recent emphasis on Cloud services means that Rekordbox users can access their library of tracks remotely. But for the most part there's been no way for users of streaming giants Spotify or Apple Music to make use of their subscriptions for DJing. That's set to change with the launch of DJ with Apple Music, a new functionality for the streaming service aimed at making the platform's library available to DJs. This manifests in a few ways. Firstly, as a new section within Apple Music's own interface that hosts a variety of curated DJ-focused playlists. This has playlists built around genres, as well as those curated by DJs and DJ gear brands. More significantly, it also means that Apple Music will now be integrated into a variety of different DJing platforms including Serato, AlphaTheta's Rekordbox, and inMusic's Engine DJ, Denon DJ, Numark, and RANE DJ. While functionality is a little different across different platforms, this means that Apple Music subscribers can mix with tracks from the service's library within their chosen DJ platform, as well as apply tags, set cue points and build playlists. On the AlphaTheta front, Apple Music arrives in the desktop version of Rekordbox (v7.1), along with rekordbox for iOS, and will also be implemented into two of the brand's all-in-one DJ systems, the XDJ-AZ and Omnis-Duo. The company also tells us that integration should roll out for the CDJ-3000s and Opus-Quad in the near future, and will be present in all future product releases. With Serato, users can access Apple Music tracks from the downloads pages of both Serato DJ Lite and Serato DJ Pro. It's worth noting that this isn't the first time Apple Music has been integrated into a DJ platform – users of Algoriddim Djay can already stream tracks from Apple Music. Rival streaming platform Tidal is already integrated into several DJ platforms too. However, today's announcement is certainly the most high-profile crossover we've seen between a streaming platform and the DJ realm. A notably absent name from the list of integrated applications is Native Instruments' Traktor, which is a shame, as the latest iteration – Traktor Pro 4 – impressed us when it finally arrived last year. 'Apple Music is committed to supporting DJs,' says Stephen Campbell, Global Head of Dance, Electronic & DJ Mixes at Apple Music. 'With this latest integration, we're taking that commitment even further – seamlessly connecting Apple Music with the industry's leading DJ software and hardware. This innovation brings the full power of Apple Music into the creative workflow, making it easier than ever for DJs to access, play, and discover music in real time.' It's worth noting a couple of major caveats that mean this functionality is likely to appeal primarily to beginner and hobbyist DJs, at least for the time being. Firstly, there's no offline functionality for DJing with Apple Music tracks. This means you can't download and save tracks added to your DJ platform of choice, and won't be able to access them without a stable internet connection – something we'd be wary of when it comes to playing any high-profile sets. Secondly, Apple Music's terms of service state that music can only be used for noncommercial purposes, which means that using streamed tracks for any paid DJ gigs – including weddings, club gigs, parties, etc – would be a violation of said terms. To point out the obvious too, making use of Apple Music within any DJ platform will require both a subscription to Apple Music and subscription to/license for your DJ software of choice. On the positive side, closing the gap between the streaming services we use for listening to music and DJ software libraries is a massive step forward for beginner and at-home DJs. In the past, when DJing relied on physical media like vinyl or CDs, or even in more recent times when a library of purchased tracks or dedicated subscription was required, getting started as a DJ could be a prohibitively expensive process. Integration like this will certainly make it cheaper for beginners to try their hand at DJing, as well as explore new styles and genres. Speaking as somebody that no longer DJs in public regularly, but has been roped out of retirement to play at a few friends' weddings in recent years, this functionality would have saved me hours of prep time if it had been available a few years ago. (It's not a violation of the terms of service if you're getting paid in free drinks, right? – I'll have our lawyers look into this). The launch of DJ with Apple Music follows the platform's introduction of DJ Mixes back in 2021, which integrated streamable mixed sets into the library.

Apple Music integration is now available on more DJ platforms
Starting today, DJs will have access to Apple Music's catalog of over 100 million songs through more hardware and software platforms. DJs of all skill levels can build and mix sets on AlphaTheta, Serato, Engine DJ, Denon DJ, Numark and RANE DJ. This news follows the initial debut of Apple Music integration with Algoriddim's djay Pro software last year. There's also a new name for the whole initiative: DJ with Apple Music. And yes, a subscription is required. This isn't to be confused with Apple Music's DJ Mixes, a separate program that began in 2021. The idea there was to attract creators of said DJ mixes and sets to the platform by leveraging Shazam's technology (owned by Apple) to ensure proper royalties were paid out. Now, Apple says, it's giving DJs access to its music catalog so it can be used as a creative tool and so they can easily tap into their personal libraries. There's a new DJ with Apple Music category page in the streaming app with curated playlists, and each platform has its own curator page complete with practice material. Spotify used to allow integration with third-party DJ apps, but the service stopped doing so in 2020. If you're looking for options, djay Pro works with Tidal and SoundCloud, in addition to Apple Music.
