A pre-release cross-platform tool that sends DJs’ screens, cameras, and audio directly to a VJ’s computer over P2P connections.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-13 issue.

Field notes

The workflow is organized around a VJ-created room: DJs receive an invitation ID, choose a source, and begin sharing screen, camera, microphone, or audio-only feeds. The page specifies a ceiling of eight DJs and shows controls for preview switching, fullscreen viewing, mute, and connection statistics. It lists Windows, macOS, and Linux support and links the project to GitHub and Discord. The software is explicitly marked pre-release, with video switching and streaming described as future extensions.
