The Numark Mixstream Pro+ is a two-deck standalone DJ controller powered by Engine DJ. It combines a 7-inch touchscreen, built-in speakers, Wi-Fi streaming, USB and SD playback, effects, performance pads and professional XLR outputs in a compact all-in-one system.
Unlike the battery-powered Mixstream Pro Go, the Pro+ is designed for mains-powered use, but otherwise keeps much of the same Engine DJ workflow and portable all-in-one philosophy.

Standalone Engine DJ performance
The Mixstream Pro+ runs Engine DJ directly on the hardware, so a laptop is not required for normal performance. Tracks can be prepared in Engine DJ Desktop, loaded from USB or SD media and analysed on the controller itself.
Engine DJ also supports libraries prepared from Serato, rekordbox and iTunes, making it easier to move an existing collection into a standalone workflow.
7-inch touchscreen and onboard analysis
The 7-inch touchscreen handles music browsing, waveforms, track loading, performance information and system settings. Tracks can be analysed for BPM and key as they are loaded, reducing the need to prepare every file in advance.
Streaming and Wi-Fi
Built-in Wi-Fi gives direct access to supported Engine DJ streaming services including Apple Music, Amazon Music Unlimited, TIDAL, Beatport, Beatsource, SoundCloud GO+ and Dropbox, subject to the relevant subscriptions and accounts.
Built-in speakers
Integrated speakers make the Mixstream Pro+ useful for practice, livestreaming and personal monitoring without immediately connecting an external system. Their level is independently adjustable from the main output.
For events and larger rooms, the balanced XLR outputs provide the appropriate connection to a professional PA.
Jog wheels, pads and effects
The two 6-inch capacitive jog wheels support cueing, pitch adjustment and scratching. Smart Scratch is designed to help the track stay rhythmically aligned after a scratch movement.
Four dual-layer pads per deck provide Cue, Saved Loop, Auto Loop and Roll modes, while the effects section includes beat-synchronised effects triggered from dedicated toggle switches.
Serato DJ and VirtualDJ
Computer Mode allows the Mixstream Pro+ to operate as a software controller for Serato DJ and VirtualDJ. Serato DJ Lite is supported free, while Serato DJ Pro and VirtualDJ require the appropriate paid licence.
Engine Lighting
Engine Lighting provides embedded control for compatible Philips Hue, Nanoleaf and DMX lighting setups. This can be useful for mobile DJs who want to manage audio and lighting from the same system.
