Automated VJ FAQ

Start with these five (most-asked questions)

Does it really run in a browser only?

Yes. Open app.autovj.club in the latest Chrome and you are running. No install, no account — the free demo covers about 90 percent of the feature set.

What hardware do I need?

Any machine that runs Chrome smoothly: 4+ cores, 8GB RAM, ideally a discrete GPU or Apple Silicon. The one thing to avoid is older integrated-GPU Intel Macs — they fall back to SwiftShader and drop to single-digit FPS.

Does this really work for a regular DJ bar night?

Yes. Regular venue operation with limited staffing is exactly the use case this tool is built for. Around 20-seat bars are the most common deployment.

Are lyrics and external video always on?

No — they default to off. The recommended pattern is calm visuals during normal hours, with lyrics switched on only for hook moments like choruses and singalong drops.

What should I do in the first 30 minutes?

Open the demo, run fullscreen for 30 seconds to confirm FPS, test on the real venue monitor, set up mic placement, and save a daily preset. The How-To page walks you through each step.
