Following the launch of AlphaTheta’s flagship CDJ-3000X DJ player earlier this month, a software version is coming to virtual reality.

With Tribe XR, AlphaTheta is bringing the CDJ-3000X – and DJM-A9 – to virtual reality setups including Meta Quest and Steam VR, describing them as “authentic 1-to-1 recreations of AlphaTheta’s latest flagship products”.

If you need a refresher, the CDJ-3000X launched earlier in September, bringing Wi-Fi functionality and cloud and streaming features, a larger, sharper 10.1” display, and improved hardware.

Now, with its new collaboration with Tribe XR, AlphaTheta aims to bring the CDJ-3000X experience – and that of the DJM-A9 – to a wider audience of users.

Within TribeXR, users can fully explore the CDJ-3000X and DJM-A9, and even learn via interactive lessons, and real-time guidance from AI mentor DJ Beatbot.

DJs with access to compatible VR systems can load their own music or use streaming libraries (Beatport, TIDAL, SoundCloud Go+), and use “digital twins” of the CDJ-3000X and DJM-A9. “Every knob, screen and fader is recreated,” AlphaTheta promises.

“Our partnership with Tribe XR builds on AlphaTheta’s ‘One Through Music’ mission, enabling DJs everywhere to discover, connect and perform with a global community through our innovative products in new and inspiring ways,” adds Yoshinori Kataoka, CEO of AlphaTheta. 

“DJs across the globe can now step into a booth with our newest flagship products from launch day.”

Tom Impallomeni, CEO of Tribe XR, adds: “We are excited for DJs to try out AlphaTheta’s incredible new club setup virtually, instantly, and affordably. It’s a game-changer for DJ training and performance.”

You can get a seven-day free trial to Tribe XR, after which subscriptions are $9.99/month, $79.99/year, or $199.99 as a lifetime purchase.
