Part 2. How to Use TIDAL with DJUCED without Subscription

While Tidal HiFi or HiFi Plus members can connect their Tidal accounts to DJUCED, users on the free tier can choose to use TIDAL with DJUCED even without a subscription. DJUCED supports audio files to import to the program from Explorer (for PC) or Finder (for Mac). DJs will need to download Tidal music tracks to a compatible file format with the DJUCED program.

However, music tracks from TIDAL are protected by DRM (Digital Rights Management), and the DRM-encoded music tracks are not supported in DJUCED. You'll need to convert and download Tidal music to MP3, M4A, AAC, FLAC, or WAV with a conversion tool called ViWizard Tidal Music Converter. Once the conversion is complete, the DRM will be removed and Tidal music tracks will be stored as local audio files on the computer. You can then import the audio files to DJUCED for direct access.

Part 4. FAQs about Using Tidal on DJUCED

Q1.Why I Can't Log in to Tidal Account in DJUCED?

A1.Tidal is an online service that relies on a robust internet connection to function properly with DJUCED, and it requires the latest software updates. If Tidal is unavailable in your country or experiences an outage for any reason, and there's no immediate prospect of restoration, don't fret! There are alternative means to access such content (as well as many other offerings) outside North America, provided users have internet access initially. Ensure that all the prerequisites mentioned above are met accordingly.
Your application must authorize itself for HTTP communication when pulling streaming data from external sources.

Q2.Why Is the DJUCED Recording Function Disabled when Using Tidal Music?

A2.When utilizing a streaming service, you not only lack ownership of the music but also encounter challenges in recording audio from these platforms. Per the agreement between DJUCED and Tidal, they are prohibited from capturing any content leaving their servers and being stored on our hard drives due to copyright laws and intellectual property issues.
One positive aspect of DJUCED is its significant progress in enhancing quality while expanding accessibility through partnerships like that with Tidal and others.

Q3.Why does accessing/downloading Tidal music files take time?

A3.Tidal offers two tiers of high-quality subscriptions, delivering 320 kbps AAC Streaming music, and also FLAC files. In these formats, a four-minute song equates to approximately 12MB for AAC and 40MB for FLAC. This underscores the necessity of a strong and stable internet connection for an optimal experience.
