Controllers[edit]
Deckadance can be controlled using a mouse, keyboard, CD system, MIDI controller, or in the case of the Club Edition, timecoded vinyl.[8] The program uses a MIDI auto detection system.[11] Deckadance works with several timecoded vinyl and CDs.[4][18] Through an 'autolearning system,' Image-Line claims the program can use essentially all CD and vinyl controllers on the market.[11] When using vinyl, the program distinguishes between 'absolute mode', which allows for needle dropping and jump track position from the vinyl, and 'relative mode', which doesn't. Both modes allow for scratching and the manual control of playback speed and direction.[18]

Behringer today announced that its long-awaited new CMD range of DJ controllers is “now shipping”.
The company also announced that the controllers will all come with a full version of a new incarnation of Image Line’s Deckadance DJ software, Deckadance 2. The software’s biggest improvement over the original Deckadance is that it now works with four decks. While Deckadance may not be one of the bigger names in DJ software, Deckadance 2 is a considerable improvement over the earlier effort. Of course these controllers are Midi mappable to any Midi-compliant software.
