Using the Live Microphone

Put your own voice into your mix, live! Use the Live Microphone to speak into your mix or sing to the music, and use djay’s real-time effects to transform your own voice.
How to use the Live Microphone
  1. Press the Mic button in the bottom bar to open the Mic popover (⇧M).
  2. Turn the Mic switch on.
  3. Change the input volume of the microphone by moving the volume slider (be aware of feedback loops if you use the built-in microphone and speakers).
  4. By moving the other two sliders you can add an echo or change the pitch of your voice.
Using an external microphone
In addition to the microphone that is built into your Mac, djay allows you to use external input devices (such as a USB microphone or an audio interface) without any further configuration.
  1. Plug in your device before or while djay is running.
  2. The device will be detected automatically and you will be asked if you wish to use it as an input device. Click "OK".
Note: You can also choose the default microphone at any time in djay’s Devices preferences.
