wow. That's awesome..looking forward to it. Hopefully you haven't minded the comment; it worked in chrome after a long loading time, but didn't work in opera at all (froze it).
That's really weird. All the site does currently is generate a .asx playlist that is then parsed by your media player... :/ The new version will be flash based tho

Thanks scancode; the jellyfish site is terribly slow at loading the file; i assume it downloads the entire file and plays the designated clip. Not really ideal in my case as the audio size is large. Can you recommend an alternate site? Thanks!
Let me try an alternate method. The jellyfish site is mine btw

Reviewer and Product | Future customer? | Intro:I had a bad experience with PCDJ before, due to their DRM solution, that stated in their EULA that only one reactivation would be given before having to repurchase, so I didn't even try the app. When starting to write this reviews, I decided to give PCDJ Red Mobile a second chance. They seem to have switched DRM providers, and the new EULA is your average one. Now to the app. This is the most basic of PCDJs offerings, and, to be honest I fell in love with it. The interface is simple, and once you learn the keyboard shortcuts you'll be mixing in no time. The manual is short, 30 pages at most, and is clearly written. The app supports ASIO, multichannel soundcards, and two separated, DirectSound compatible cards. You can also use a single soundcard and use two mono outputs. Effects are simple to use, and pretty much preconfigured. [attachthumb=1] Who is this app designed for:Anyone from a bedroom DJ to a small club jockey The GoodThe interface is simple, soundcard support is awesome, looping is accurate and easy to use. The needs improvement sectionAdd a sampler, scratching, a couple more effects, and you have a winner. ConclusionsTry it, you'll love it.

Reviewer and Product | None at all, thankfully! | Intro:After the DJ Legend disaster, I decided to try DJ Surface. I'm starting to think that all apps starting with 'DJ' are crap. This one at least features a working pitch control. I really like the fact that it has unlimited decks and a pretty much native (unskinned) user interface. It requires a multichannel soundcard, but doesn't let you use different soundcards for different channels (or to preview tracks) It lacks scratching functions and effects, and the fact that you have to stop a track to set cue points, loops and such makes this app useless for live remixing. The three band EQ works, and the tempo control actually changes the speed without distorting the sound a lot. [attachthumb=1] Who is this app designed for:Begginers, or people who really don't know better The GoodThe speed changing algorithm works well. The nonskinned user interface. Unlimited decks. The needs improvement sectionThe menu bar. We normally expect a menu to pull down when we click a menu bar item. Lacks features. Why I think you should use this productI don't. How does it compare to similar appsBetter than DJ Legend. ConclusionsWouldn't use it even if I got a free license.

From a personal perspective, I'm not all that put out by a one month release delay for NetFlix. I may not be too big on meat on the grill, or cold beer (being an ale drinker myself), but I do find myself in agreement with Shades' attitude regarding mañana and patience as being a virtue. (The presence of minimally dressed females and the effects of raggeaton on same merits some consideration as well! )  I should give you dcredits just for that comment alone.

Piece of shit Re:
What a nice way to treat someone who's releasing an application FOR FREE. Don't like it, don't use it. I'd like to see your reaction if somebody else called your work a POS. - With every start of computer the exe-file of this programm has to be initilized. Why programm cannot start with computer?
Add to startup folder, stop bitching. Some of us don't like having a lot of programs running at startup. - The cursor running much too fast for beginners. Speed cannot be changed. Given on -start -execute the recommended CCCCtrlC.exe [Intervall] say CCCCtrlC.exe [20] just pop the shabby grey windows-mistake-information-window. Bumm! Reply: "'CCCCtrlC.exe doesn't exist" !
Use the full path, ie "C:\Documents and Settings\You\Desktop\Downloads\CCCCtrlC.exe" 20 - Copied with normal (short-time) Shift+C the copy has doubled i.e. 'CCCCtrlC.exe [Intervall]CCCCtrlC.exe [Intervall]' - unbelievable but it's true.
 - There is no uninstall
Not needed, just delete the EXE :/ Fazit: Just to test your nerves and to confirm that it is better to use commercial programms
 Shows problem we meet since ever: Incapability of most software-programmers to explain programms, understandable for public use. Not even capable to explain installation properly. Incompability of software-programmers to didactical psychology (teaching).
Software programmers teach stuff to computers. Teachers teach stuff to people. Little hint: If the cake should taste good follow a cook book and read to the instructions: 1..... 2..... 3...... an so on
What can you learn from a cook book that your programm tastes good (= successful installation & runs well on everybodies computer) ?
Programmers != bakers Also, a little common courtesy goes a long way. Since it seems you know so much about programming and end-user experience, why don't you code your own tool and share it with the rest of us? </nastygram>

V 1.1 is out. Added some customization options. Also moved from the WTFPL to a more 'family friendly' license. This program is catware/donationware. If you find it useful in any way, pay for this program by spending one hour petting one or several cats. A donation to the author would be nice, but is not required.

This is very handy, any chance of a censored version of the About text? I'm sure someone would take offence! Cheers
Can’t you change the wording? It’s inappropriate / childish / not corporate-compliant.
What the fuck is not clear in “DO WHAT THE FUCK YOU WANT TO”? If you do not like the license terms, just relicense the work under another license.
Back to seriousness, do you know any other license that allows as much freedom as the WTFPL without forcing me to release sourcecode?
