Innovations

Rewritten from scratch, the latest version of Cross brings Mixvibes’ know how and experience to Mac OSX and Windows users. DJs can now control video at their fingerprints, sample their music and use VST instruments.

In early 2017, the product range has been completed with Remixvideo, an intuitive VJ software that can also be used as a plugin with one’s favorite DAW.
