Audio DJ Studio for .NET is a native .NET component that makes it easy adding sound playback and mixing capabilities to applications written with Visual Studio.NET

Audio DJ Studio for .NET comes with built-in decoding capabilities in order to decode most common sound formats like MP3, WAV, Ogg Vorbis and many others: it can load different sounds at the same time on different virtual decks , usually defined as "players" (*), and, thanks to the use of DirectSound, allocated players can have separate Volume, Tempo, Playback Rate, Pitch and Equalizer values: each player comes with a set of embedded and configurable visual feedbacks like VU-Meter, Spectrum Analyser, Oscilloscope and Waveform.

An embedded automatic fader can easily mix audio tracks loaded inside a playlist with an accurate and configurable fade-in/fade-out.

Thanks to the integration with DirectShow, Audio DJ Studio for .NET can load, play and mix video files using formats whose specific codec is available on the target machine and, through the mentioned players, it can apply different sound effects (equalization, volume, DMO effects, etc.) to the sound portion of a video file.

Audio DJ Studio for .NET is open to the external world of DSP effects: it can work with custom DSP effects developed by the developer himself and also with the multitude of VST effects available on the Internet.

Let's see a brief summary of the available features:

* Playback of several audio formats: MP3, WAV, OGG Vorbis, MP4, AAC, M4A, AC3, FLAC, WavPack, ALAC, W64, AU, PAF, SVX, NIST, VOC, IRCAM, PVF, CAF, Speex, Musepack and Monkey's Audio (APE)
* Playback of PCM audio RAW formats
* Playback of Windows Media formats (requires the availability of Windows Media Player modules on the target PC)
* Playback of CD tracks
* Playback of MOD Music
* Playback of video clips whose DirectShow compatible codecs are installed inside the target system, with support for multiple output windows
* Mixing/blending of video clips inside a video mixer output window, with support for separate preview windows
* Support for customizable On-Screen-Display (OSD) on the video mixer window
* Playback of audio files stored on an Internet server (not available for MOD music files)
* Playback of Internet radios Shoutcast/Icecast streams
* Support for ASIO drivers with the possibility to directly playback the sound stream coming from ASIO input channels of the sound card
* Support for acting as a source for ShoutCAST, IceCast and Windows Media Services streaming servers
* Possibility to change the player volume and sound card volumes.
* Multi-player features: allow playing more sounds at the same time, each of them having separate volume, special effects and output redirection
* Possibility to mix songs at application level, through custom stream mixers, allowing to save mixing results through the integration with our Audio Sound Recorder for .NET component or to send mixing results to a streaming server
* Support for PCM stream queuing, allowing to play sound streams coming from an external source
* Integration with Microsoft's Speech API, allowing to apply sound effects and output redirection to the sound stream generated by the SetOutputToAudioStream function of an instance of the System.Speech.Synthesis.SpeechSynthesizer class (requires .NET framework v. 3.0)
* Real-time embedded visual feedbacks (VU-Meter, Oscilloscope, Spectrum, Waveform display)
* Support for configurable normalization of sound level
* Support for reverse playback of audio tracks
* Sound card output choice and speakers assignment
* Support for volume automation with possibility to design volume curves
* Playlists support
* Support for new proprietary playlist format (PDJ), allowing to predispose mixing automation and volume automation on each single song and to play encrypted sounds
