The app also integrates fully with the iPad’s iTunes library, automatically analysing any music stored on the device ready for loading. The app - which is available now from the App Store at a price of £13.99/$19.99 - syncs bi-directionally with Traktor Pro, meaning that track information such as cue points, beat grids and BPM can be shared back and forth between the two applications.
