rekordbox for Mac/Windows Supports Phase's HID Mode, Offering New Options for DJing with Turntables

AlphaTheta Corporation is pleased to announce that the DJ software rekordbox for Mac/Windows now supports the HID mode of Phase, the wireless controller for turntables.

Phase is a wireless controller that detects turntable rotation and sends high-precision control signals to DJ software. With support for Phase's HID mode, rekordbox users can easily use Phase Essential and Phase Pro*1 simply by connecting the Phase Receiver to their PC/Mac via USB. In addition to a simple and flexible setup, low-latency, stable control, and seamless integration with Phase, including Phase's battery level display, enable highly flexible DJ performances using turntables.

Cédric Vergé, Co-founder of Phase, stated:

"Our collaboration with the rekordbox team on this project felt natural from day one. The integration went incredibly smoothly, and the results speak for themselves. Phase in HID mode with rekordbox has exceeded our expectations in terms of accuracy and feel. I can’t wait to see Phase Essential users, and those who will soon get their hands on Phase Pro, unlock the full potential of this system."

AlphaTheta will continue to promote initiatives that expand the expressive range of DJs through collaboration with other companies, aiming for the sustainable development of DJ culture and the realization of a more open industry environment.

*1 Phase Pro is currently under development and is scheduled for release this summer. Please check the Phase website for details.
