Mixonset Support: FAQ
Smart Mix
Why is there a purple dot, and when does it show?
The purple dot shows when the song transitions without skipping a beat to the next. The purple dot hides all the complicated DJ stuff we do with AI. Once the purple loading circle is completed, the purple dot will show.
Will the transition come sooner if I skip to it?
No it will not. Since it takes Mixonset a while to analyze the song to create the purple dot for the song transition, skipping to the end will not make the transition come sooner. The songs may not even mix in time.
If you want transitions to come sooner, instead select Highlight mode at the bottom right corner. That ensures that shorter highlights of tracks get played.
How to change the transition point?
Simply drag the purple dot to where you want the transition to happen, and your AI DJ will optimize the mix to happen at that part of the track. Apart from that, Mixonset can give you a set of ideal transition points in the form of white dots, and you can easily drag the purple dot to any of them.
You can also use Highlight Mode to preset the song length.
What does Highlight Mode do?
Use Highlight Mode to preset how long you want each song to last:
Play Highlight: Play about 25% to 50% of each song then transition to the next one.
Play Full Song: Play the full song, and mix to the next song close to the end.
Discover and Curate
What decides the queue?
Mixonset’s proprietary Smart Queue is intelligently curated by our AI DJ. This is how it works:
1. The AI figures out the beats per minute (BPM) of each track to beat match all the songs in the queue.
2. The AI arranges the tracks based on energy level so that there would not be jarring moments.
3. Your tracks are now Smart Queued for more seamless lean-back listening, empowering your Smart Mix to work with smoother DJ transitions.
How to edit my queue?
To edit the songs in your queue: go to the Queue page (top right button on the Now Playing screen), and click on the Edit/pencil button at bottom right. It’ll let you delete songs and modify the queue easily.
To add songs to the queue, click the ‘Add Song’ icon on the top right of the Queue screen. To remove songs from the queue, you can swipe the song to the left on the Queue screen until the ‘Delete’ button appears, then click on it.
Pro Tip: Use Display Features (the Eye Icon at the bottom left of the Queue page) to see the BPM, Energy, or Length of your queue for more precise curation.
How do music filters work?
Once you’ve selected a playlist, you will see the music filters underneath the bright red Smart Mix button. You’ll see the different music filters that will uniquely curate your queue into whatever shape or form you want. The music filters range from beats per minute (BPM), Genre, Artists, Energy, recent songs, and explicit tracks.
How to play my mix in the same specific order?
Just click the downward arrow next to the Smart Mix button. Afterwards, simply select “Mix in this order” to play your music in the same order that it’s been manually curated.
Pro Tip: You can also order your mix by a specific order and then play it by BPM, Energy, Earliest, Most Recent, and more.
How to order my mix by a specific order?
On the playlist page, scroll a little bit downwards to reveal a search bar. On the right of the search bar, you can order your playlist by BPM, Energy, Earliest, Most Recent, and more.
Why does the app stop playing?
Internet:
Due to the internet condition, sometimes the app would stop playing or play without mixing since it takes too long to load songs. To fix this, simply use a more stable network.
Storage:
Check if your device still has storage left (at least more than 1GB).
Device:
While the app works on iPhone 8 and above, newer devices generally work better with faster mix creation speed.
