2.1. Install and Launch

The initial Harmonic DJ release is a standalone application for Windows, macOS, and Linux; plug-in formats are not included. Install the application using the package for your platform, then open APU Harmonic DJ from the normal applications location.

The application starts in Community unless a Pro trial or paid license is active. Community does not require an account or activation. Open About when you want to start a Pro trial or activate an existing license. Visit the APU Harmonic DJ product page to see current Pro pricing or purchase Pro.

On Windows N and KN editions, Harmonic DJ requires the Microsoft Media Feature Pack. The installer checks for the underlying Media Foundation components and can open Windows Optional Features when they are missing.
