Are you just playing playlists? Spotify killed multi stream years ago so you can’t mix it on two channels with a deck. Same time they launched their revamped podcasts.
Tidal supports multi stream in full on Djay, including ai dj features. Apple Music supports multi stream only, no ai dj features.
I think support articles that quote statistics are run past the marketing team before publication.
Spotify source recordings are trash. It doesn't matter what quality they send it to you in after that. A 4k upscale of a VHS is still not going to look as good as a distinctly average DVD copy.
Listening to Spotify on highest quality is often noticeably worse than any other service on medium/low quality.
I found it to be bordering on unlistenable enough of the time to cancel my sub a couple of years ago.
no
if you are being picky it may depend on what day of the week you do this stuff, codecs are constantly improving, spotify's aac today is likely gonna kick the ass out of an mp3 ripped five or ten years ago
i'm streaming from flac to opus these days
Between Spotify and MP3? Nope, but they will both sound pretty dreadful on a respectable club system. Fatiguing, lacking punch.
If you're a DJ, please invest in good quality media.
The fact that you're getting downvoted for being EXACTLY right is all the proof I need that reddit is full of people who are internet smart with very little real world knowledge.
A load of guys who have likely never been to a club, let alone spent months designing, installing, and commissioning large-scale systems in clubs.
Spending a couple grand on some tower speakers and an integrated streamer amp is a whoooooole different ballgame to the dynamic range, fidelity, and coherence of a big system in a good room.
Very few tracks are mastered for this... so DJs need a few tricks to really make it happen... I built a box to help David Guetta with that once, but that's a story for another day!
Yeah buddy.
Reddit is for amateurs, and those of us who know may share our opinions here, but not our knowledge.
Sounds like we have similar backgrounds, I wonder if you know my friend Sal 🤣
Highest quality Spotify is the lowest quality streaming option FYI. If your DJing just sign up for TIDAL DJ program and dump Spotify. Any streaming service is better then there's.
In a club setting? no way.
Yeah, club setting
nooo way
spotify is fine on a club system. if you heard anything that sounded bad, my money is on it being overdriven. which happens waaay to often.
Paid Spotify goes up to 320 if your connection and hardware support it. Sonos supports 320.
Can I see if I really get 320?
It’s up to the player to tell whatever it wants to tell you.
So that’s a no I guess
Some apps like Wiim will tell you the bitrate of files or streams that are playing, so yes, there is a way.
Thank you

Like 320 MP3’s? Really?

Oh, their marketing materials, that must be trustworthy
That is a support page. Not marketing materials.
They never said that. An mp3 can be absolute trash quality, and with Spotify it IS trash quality, so their statement is true
https://support.spotify.com/us/article/audio-quality/ You don’t think it’s true?

Interesting, cause most DJ pools have MP3’s i think
The only good comment getting downvoted
Right? It's not like I make my living from sound systems or anything 🤣

Thx! But it’s still as good as a 320 kbit mp3?
Pretty much identical, but it's still a poor value
