Our verdict on VirtualDJ
VirtualDJ is desktop DJ software for beginners, home users, professional DJs and DJ businesses. It combines a standalone multi-deck mixer with audio and video playback, library management, controller and mixer support, DVS timecode mixing, real-time stem separation, effects, loops, samples, karaoke, recording, broadcasting and cloud library synchronization. The software runs on Windows and macOS and supports up to 99 decks, making it suited to DJs who want one environment for varied performance formats.
Pricing is structured around use case. The Free plan supports personal, non-professional use. Home costs $4 per month and adds home use with entry-level controller support. Pro costs $19 per month and covers professional use, any DJ controller and no audio branding. Business costs $99 per month and includes business use, multi-user licenses and mission-critical support. Annual billing receives 15% off, while the listed Business annual amount is not specified. This range gives casual users a low-cost entry point and provides a clear path to professional and business licensing.
Its broad feature set is the main reason to choose it: DJs can mix audio and video, separate stems in real time, manage playlists and smart folders, use DVS timecode mixing, and synchronize libraries through CloudDrive. Integrations with Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox and iCloud add storage options. VirtualDJ fits DJs who need flexibility across music, video, karaoke, broadcasting and different hardware setups. It is less suitable for users who need mobile software or professional controller access without moving beyond the Home plan.
