How to Use SoundCloud on VirtualDJ [Latest Methods]

Method 1. Connect SoundCloud to VirtualDJ with SoundCloud DJ/Go+ Subscription

To use SoundCloud inside VirtualDJ, you need a paid plan. The primary difference between the two is offline access:

• SoundCloud Go+ ($10.99/month): Online streaming only.
• SoundCloud DJ ($19.99/month): Online streaming and unlimited offline downloading/caching of tracks in VirtualDJ.

Step 1 Connect SoundCloud to VirtualDJ

Once your subscription is active, link your account:

1. Open VirtualDJ on your computer.
2. In the Folder List (the left-hand panel), click the Online Music folder.
3. Navigate to the SoundCloud logo.
4. Right-click on the SoundCloud folder and select Sign in.



5. A browser window opens with the SoundCloud login screen.
6. Log in with your email, username, or linked account (Google, Apple, Facebook).



7. When you see the confirmation message, close the browser window.

Step 2 Access and Mix SoundCloud Tracks

You are now successfully connected! VirtualDJ will display your SoundCloud library in the browser panel.

1. Expand the SoundCloud folder in the left-hand panel to see your liked tracks, playlists, albums, and trending genre lists.
2. Use the search bar at the top of VirtualDJ to browse SoundCloud's 200M+ catalog.
3. Drag and drop any song from the SoundCloud list onto one of your decks.
4. The track will begin streaming immediately, and VirtualDJ will automatically analyze the BPM and key on the fly.

Step 3 Use SoundCloud on VirtualDJ Offline (SoundCloud DJ Only)

With the SoundCloud DJ plan, you can cache tracks for offline mixing.

1. Find the track or playlist you want to save for offline mixing.
2. Right-click on the individual track or the entire playlist.
3. Choose Download to Cache.
4. The music saves to your Offline Cache folder.
5. When offline, open the Offline Cache folder, load these cached tracks, and mix them without an internet connection.

Step 4 Record and Export Your SoundCloud Mix

VirtualDJ has a built-in recorder. It captures your full set, including SoundCloud tracks, effects, and transitions, into one audio file.

1. Open Settings in VirtualDJ (gear icon or main menu).
2. Go to the Record section.
3. Click the button next to the Path field and choose a save folder.
4. Pick your output format:
   
   
   • MP3 (192 or 320 Kbps): Best balance of quality and file size.
   • WAV/FLAC: Lossless, but large files.
   • OGG: Smaller files, less common.



5. Click the START RECORD button in the Record settings window.
6. Perform your mix using the SoundCloud tracks you've loaded onto the decks.
7. When you are finished, click the STOP RECORD button in the same Record settings window.
8. Click on the Recorded file... button and choose Show in Explorer or Show in browser to locate the SoundCloud mix file (which should be located where you set earlier).

Method 2. Use SoundCloud on VirtualDJ without a Subscription

SoundCloud DJ lets you save tracks for offline mixing. But the price is high, at $19.99 per month. Many VirtualDJ users also report problems. Some cannot link their SoundCloud account inside VirtualDJ. Others find that the software does not recognize their subscription. Even when it connects, favorite tracks or playlists may not appear.

Because of these issues, the easiest, cheapest, and most reliable solution is to download SoundCloud music to your computer. Once the songs are local files, you can drag and drop them into VirtualDJ without limits.

This is where ViWizard SoundCloud Music Downloader comes in. It is a desktop software that lets you download any SoundCloud track, playlist, or album in MP3, FLAC, WAV, AIFF, M4A, M4B formats in high quality, then import them into VirtualDJ as local files.
