Released 31 March 2026. The second major update of VirtualDJ 2026.
What changed
- Fluid beat grids: AI beat grids for tracks with an unsteady BPM, from old rock and disco to warped vinyl and megamixes.
- BPM Stabilizer: steadies a fluid track during a transition so you can beat-mix it by hand.
- AI visuals: audio-reactive shaders and beat-synced video loops generated from a text prompt, for audio-only tracks.
- Better lyrics transcription across more languages.
For your library
Beat grids are part of each song’s entry in your database, alongside its cue points. Re-analysing a track for a fluid grid rewrites that part of the entry, which is one more reason to repair broken paths rather than remove and re-add songs: a repaired entry keeps its analysis. Storage formats are unchanged.
