DJUCED review
A flexible DJUCED entry point for STEMS, four-deck mixing, and library portability.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
DJUCED is desktop DJ software from Guillemot, offered within the Hercules ecosystem for beginners and professional DJs. It covers audio mixing, remixing, pad performance, scratching, recording, music-library management, beatmatching, MIDI control, and up to four decks. Its standout STEMS feature uses machine learning to separate vocals, melody, bass, and drums, making the software suited to DJs who want creative remixing tools alongside conventional performance controls. It runs on Windows and macOS.
The pricing structure gives users a free entry point, with a 15-day free trial also available. DJUCED Standard includes audio mixing and DJ performance features, a four-deck view, and realtime STEMS, and is available with a Hercules controller. DJUCED PRO costs €89.99 as a one-time purchase and adds controller remapping, controller-free unlocked mode, video loops, Rekordbox XML import and export, and Serato crate import. DJUCED PRO+ costs €5.99 per month and includes Standard features, the PRO additions, lyrics, and unlimited updates. The paid options suit different ownership preferences: a perpetual license or an ongoing subscription.
Library portability and external connections are central strengths. DJUCED supports Rekordbox XML import and export, Serato crate import, Beatport Streaming, SoundCloud Go+, TIDAL, Mixcloud, and Ableton Link. Performance tools include eight hot cues, loops, a slicer, sampler, beat jump, music recording, video loops for VJing, and two- or four-deck layouts. Choose DJUCED if STEMS, controller flexibility, streaming connections, and movement between DJ libraries matter most. Consider another option if your work requires an operating system beyond Windows or macOS, or if you want advanced capabilities without moving to a paid tier.
