Description
SportsDJ is the portable soundboard built for live sports. Whether you're running the music at a hockey rink, calling walk-up songs at a softball game, or hyping up a crowd at
any event — SportsDJ puts your entire audio setup in one tap.
BUILD YOUR SOUNDBOARD
Import any audio file and organize it into color-coded groups. Assign labels, colors, and gestures so everything is exactly where you need it during a game. Tap to play,
double-tap to stop, long-press to edit — every action is configurable. Drag groups to reorder them and arrange your layout for game day.
COMBO TILES
Layer multiple sounds together with precise timing offsets. Stack a goal horn over crowd noise, build a walkout sequence, or create any multi-sound effect — with per-layer
volume control and cross-layer ducking so one sound can soften the others automatically.
WAVEFORM EDITOR
Fine-tune every clip with the visual waveform editor. Set precise trim points, drag fade-in and fade-out curves, and create dropout regions with configurable duck levels for
crowd singalong moments — all with real-time preview and a minimap for quick navigation.
SPORT MODES
Hockey, softball/baseball, football, and basketball each get a dedicated control panel. Hockey has pre-mapped slots for goals, penalties, pen kills, and break music. Softball
and baseball track your batting lineup with full walk-up compositions. Football and basketball feature live scoreboards, down-and-distance tracking, and configurable action
tiles.
WALK-UP COMPOSITIONS
Build player walk-up sequences that combine music and voice announcements on a shared timeline. Record custom voice intros per player, adjust relative volume between music and
voice, set auto-duck so music softens during announcements, and choose a fadeout duration. Every player gets their own personalized entrance.
APPLE MUSIC & SPOTIFY
Link any sound tile to an Apple Music or Spotify track and play it directly through the app. Connect your account and your entire catalog is available — no audio files to
manage. Trim, set dropouts, and preview streaming tracks right in the waveform editor. Note: Apple Music requires a subscription or purchased songs. Spotify requires a premium
subscription and SportsDJ has to get to 250K monthly active users.
LIVE MIC ANNOUNCEMENTS
Go live with the built-in mic mode. Toggle it on, hold-to-talk, or let smart mode handle ducking automatically so your voice always cuts through.
FOOTPEDAL
Connect a Bluetooth footpedal (or game controller, keyboard, something with buttons) and trigger sounds hands-free. Keep your eyes on the game while your feet (or fingers) run the board.
BACKUP & RESTORE
Export your entire soundboard — or pick specific groups — as a single backup file. Sounds, groups, teams, players, walkup compositions, and streaming links are all included.
Import on any device with full collision handling: rename, overwrite, or merge groups and choose how duplicates are resolved.
STARTER PACK
New to SportsDJ? A built-in starter pack of arena sound effects — goal horns, buzzers, crowd cheers, and more — is ready to play from the first launch. Restore it anytime from
Settings.
PRO FEATURES
Upgrade to unlock unlimited sounds and groups, sport-specific game panels (hockey, softball, baseball, basketball, football), player walk-up compositions with voice
announcements, combo tiles with cross-layer ducking, and full backup & restore with selective export.
