New rekordbox Lyric Plus Pack Brings World's First Lyric Visualization in Sync with DJs' Tracks
We're releasing rekordbox ver 5.1, a new version of our music management
software. The update enables a brand-new optional Plus Pack, rekordbox
lyric, for displaying animated lyric visualizations when using the
rekordbox dj Plus Pack.
Since we released rekordbox video in 2016, we've continued to develop
the video functionality within our performance software and, now,
rekordbox lyric offers a brand-new form of expression. Its lyric
visualization feature, co-developed with COTODAMA, enables you to
display visualizations of track lyrics on the fly via monitors or
projectors when using the rekordbox dj Plus Pack. Animations are created
automatically by the software and you can customise them to create your
preferred look. rekordbox lyric is the first DJ tool in the world to
visualize the lyrics of songs being played.*1

KEY FEATURES OF REKORDBOX LYRIC
1. Lyric visualization in sync with
tracks Thanks to COTODAMA's Lyric Sync Technology, the
lyrics of the tracks you play are sent via your laptop's video output
(HDMI, etc.) to a connected screen or projector. Just play music that's
been pre-analysed by rekordbox and smooth, dynamic motion graphics based
on the track's mood and structure will appear when rekordbox lyric is
enabled. You can perform with your tracks normally (for example, adding
FX) and the visualized lyrics will appear automatically.
2. Customizable visualized lyrics You
can change the tone and type of motion graphics generated by rekordbox
lyric. And, with the flexibility to customize font colour and
transparency of the background individually, you can create visuals on
the fly to match the crowd's vibe.
3. Compatible with rekordbox video Use
rekordbox video with rekordbox lyric to apply its Transition FX to
visualized lyrics and to layer lyrics over videos and images. By
combining various elements using both Plus Packs, you can create unique
visual performances to accompany your DJ sets.
About Lyric Sync Technology rekordbox
lyric utilizes Lyric Sync Technology that automatically visualizes
lyrics beautifully. Lyric data is acquired from the database of over
2.59 million songs provided by Sync Power Corporation. The music
analysis technology of the National Institute of Advanced Industrial
Science and Technology (AIST) automatically analyses the lyric data to
determine the atmosphere and composition of the music, and its
Expression Engine generates motion graphics for each song using the
Morisawa font.
