Our main user interface

Inspiration

We wanted to CS-maxx, we already did rock climbing, so DJ-ing was next. We wanted to learn how to DJ but we're poor and inexperienced to learn how via traditional software.

What it does

An clean, zen-like interface for practicing your launchpad skills, initiating smooth transitions with a crossfade, as well as automatic AI queue of songs.

How we built it

We split into:

UX/ Frontend
Voice-related backend
AI-related backend

Challenges we ran into

Handling text to speech and dealing with our API issues

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Our core data pipeline that makes the AI song queuing work. (natural language -> youtube link -> mp3 -> queue) We are also very proud of our single paged, design forward user experience.

What we learned

Voice AI is hard, but it is so rewarding towards pushing your product to the next level. Also building an intuitive front-end is a very iterative experience.
