What is SoundSwitch? - DMX Lighting Interface Overview | Tutorial 

GetInTheMix If I own 3 DJ setups and am gigging multiple events at the same time, can I license the software once?

Can SoundSwitch work with Rekordbox?

It's for the lifetime of that version of the software. Not the DJ's lifetime!

i think you can buy the software for 199 Dollar but yeah - that subscription model sucks

The thing is people got used to the idea of buy once and it goes forever. This is an unsustainable model for a business as a whole. People expect support, people expect the company to be around forever, but then are shy to pony up the money to help sustain a company. Especially in a niche company such as SoundSwitch, there has to be a financial incentive to improve and support the product. It may suck, but this is where all companies are now, or are headed.

Definitely lost me with that

Just buy it outright. Easy.

@@Kayplaya basically if you don't use subscription model chances are support will fizzle out and company will go under and then you are left with out of date software

I’ve never used this program before, but if you could feed the signal from Spotify through a virtual audio device and then send that signal to this program, maybe that would work?

We didn't have any issues using it here but it is entirely dependent on the spec of the computer you're using. Providing you have enough ram and a reasonably strong processor you should be fine, it's worth checking the recommended system requirements of the two programs and then aiming a bit above if you plan to run both.

They need to be set to corresponding address not salve mode, soons you connect the software your lights should go dmx mode automatically at least mine does

It probably uses the bpm and jog/turntale for the dimmer effect, maybe the harmonic key for colors, and ramdom movement effects...

Not sure if you got an answer elsewhere but I can give you a bit of info about that. There is a standalone option for soundswitch where you can override the light shows happening. Works well with a midi controller. So basically you can set separate static scenes (like if the wedding you're playing at has a red/white scene and you want that scene during cocktail/reception then you can press your midi controller or click on the screen). Also good for making blinder, blackout and strobe scenes with the option of it to be toggled or just pressed. And once you don't need those scenes and want the lights to match the music again then you just untoggle the scene. Here's a video on how to do it! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-s1hmVOJK4Gg.html

Thanks for asking! I would like to know the answer to!

So I asked the support and they told me that soundswitch only works with programmed lightning shows which takes a lot of time to get it good or auto loops. However they don't respond to your beat. They are just randomized if you don't actively choose one. I think soundswitch is nice if you really want to nail down a great programmed light show apart from that it's not really worth it.

Our building was being transported on a boat at this time 🚢

@@GetintheMix Haha! Good one!

Functionally they are the same, the original box was the first version. However, owners of the original box have a lifetime SoundSwitch subscription and do not need to pay monthly for the software.

These are Equinox Fusion Spot MKIIs: www.getinthemix.com/lighting-effects/moving-heads/equinox-fusion-spot.htm They are very nicely sized and priced, convenient route to go to get some moving heads in the rig!

They work daisy chain and they not need to be on slave mode just assigned addresses

You are where Andre Tate is from

Yes, the SoundSwitch interface is only £24, and the subscription is just £5.99 a month.

@@GetintheMix is there a lifetime license?

@@DynMarkMusic Yes, a lifetime license for SoundSwitch 2.0 is £149.00 (£179.99 with VAT). You get all the updates for version 2.0 but will need a new license when the software eventually moves on to version 3 and you want to upgrade to it.

Rocking Rolling facts

@@onlyknives4pros Holy shit, the man can talk but no walk....

unisonproductions123 lmaoo

You just need the dongle and the ss software. The dongle is around $40 usd. The black box was the previous version if I understand correctly. Software for a lifetime license is $199 usd.

Thank you

We're unsure of the limit exactly but you can have multiple venues and it is easy to toggle between them.

That is a result of an error on our part, either we didn't get their positions right or they were not set up as a pair. It likely James made some adjustments to the show during the tutorial which affected their position for the show. The USB hub is by Orico, we've had it floating about for a while so not sure on the model but they've got a selection available!

PixMotions RB-DMX1 is terrible. a terrible knock off of SS. just read the forums.

@@calebkent7981 I ordered one to test it this week. If it sucks i switch to the Traktor s4 mk3 instead of the pioneer ddj800. I think the idea is great... That's why I want to give it a chance.

That is a USB hub!

It depends on what brand light it is, and whether it is in the fixture library. If it is not you can contact them on the website and they can create a fixture for you.

SoundSwitch connects to any Serato compatible DJ controller or Mixer. The DDJ-1000SRT is supported but not the original DDJ-1000, which is only Rekordbox compatible.

@@GetintheMix can you help me out if I want to connect pioneer dmx to moving head light how can I connect using xlr cable? I get so confused n I want to connect moving head with another moving head how can I connect those? Can you please explain me please please please

Yes

We have this available if you're in the UK or mainland Europe: www.getinthemix.com/accessories/lighting-accessories/soundswitch-micro-dmx-interface.htm

Rekordbox is not supported, however pretty much everything else is.

You could use stand alone option. With abelton link it would follow the beat timing and you would be stuck with auto loops and pre set scenes. But it’s not a 100% no. It’s just not as integrated an option as it is with Dennon VDJ and Serato

Shit so you're saying it's mallware? Where's your proof?

@@unisonproductions123 Idk if he knows what he is talking about. Look up Chauvet DJ soundswitch.
