Something awesome just landed on your iPad, courtesy of Algoriddim, the maker of cool DJ-ing app dubbed djay. Their newest release is a music video mixing program for the iPad called vjay. Now, I’ve been to parties where high-tech DJs perform live mixes using just Algoriddim’s djay app, but this one takes the concept of fun to the next level…
Billed as an app “paving the way for the next generation of personal and professional video creativity”, vjay for iPad is admittedly cool.
It lets you use your tablet as an awesome video mixing machine allowing you to mix and scratch iTunes music videos or compose your own mash ups by combining songs from your music library with your own video clips.
It’s enhanced for the new iPad, supports external hardware such as Griffin’s DJ cable or Numark’s iDJ Live controller, streams wirelessly via AirPlay to your Apple TV and even lets you add clips taken with the iPad’s camera to your mix on the fly.
And because the iTunes Store support is built-in, you can browse, search, preview and purchase music videos on iTunes from within the app, which is really nice.
