There are two dierent “Music Players” on the iPad, both shown on the “Home Screen of

Apple Music Player

Playing Music with “Apple Music”

When you press the button, the music player will open and you should be taken

a split menu screen with categories down the left-hand side of the screen and content

of the selected category on the right-hand side (note: hold the iPad in “Landscape”

position). This is a fairly simple application with simple controls, it does not however,

provide any scope for adjusting the speed of the track.

If a playlist has already been created for you, then

select “Playlists” from the left hand side list (you may

need to scroll up or down). Select your playlist and it

will be displayed on the right-hand side of the screen.

The music tracks will be displayed in the order that

you provided and should match the running order of

your event. To play any individual track you merely

have to select the track and it will automatically play.

Once the track starts to play, a track control bar will

appear with the track title. The controls are

“pause/play” or “restart/next track”

To exit the player, swipe up with your ﬁnger from the thin black bar at the bottom of the

screen.

Note that in the photo of the full page shown to

the right, there is a play button. If this button is

selected it will play the “playlist” starting with

the 1

track and then automatically work

through the list one track after the other. I do not recommend this option.

Play Music with “djay”

This is a more useful music player though it requires a bit more familiarity to operate

well. This application provides a couple of capabilities that may be useful to the MC

that are not available with the Apple player:

 Speed control/auto pitch correction

 Track cueing

When the “djay” icon is selected the application will

open and this page should be displayed. At ﬁrst

glance it appears quite complex but it is important

to understand that there are two turntables and

associated controls. Each “turntable” has the

following controls:

 “Track select” button at the top

 “Play button” at the bottom of

each side

 Speed/Pitch control. This is a slider on each side, pull the bar up or down to

speed up or slow down. BPM is shown at the top.

The ﬁnal control is the MIXER bar shown in the middle at the bottom of the page.

Again, this is a slide control, pull to the left then the left-hand turntable

automatically starts to play and will be heard through the audio system. Pulled to

the right, then the right-hand track is played.

Note: If the slider is pulled to the left and the right-hand turntable is

playing, the right-hand side track will not come through the audio

system and you won’t hear it; the same applies to the other way round.

Selecting music with “djay”

If the “select” button is pressed the following pop-up menu will be displayed.

From the list of “playlists” or “songs” select the track you want to

play.

When selected the track should automatically start. Once you are

happy that this is the track that you want to play, you can press the

“Play” button and the track will stop.

To reset the track to the beginning, pull the red line shown at the

top of the page all the way to the left.

When you next press the “play” button the

track should start from the beginning.

When the left-hand track is playing, you may then set up the right-hand track by

selecting the next track to be played, stopping it and reset to the start and when ready to

play, slide the mixer bar over to the right. The track will then automatically start and play

through the audio system
