[DJUCED Tidal] How to Use Tidal with DJUCED in 2025

Part 1. Does DJUCED Support Tidal?

The good news is that DJUCED officially supports Tidal integration. Starting from DJUCED version 5 and later, users have been able to log into their TIDAL account directly from DJUCED and stream tracks for their sets. This means you can mix, scratch, and loop songs from TIDAL's vast library on DJUCED just like local files

Conditions for Using TIDAL with DJUCED Online

However, there are a few conditions for this integration:

• Subscription Required: Only the TIDAL Individual plan is supported, and it must include the DJ Extension add-on.

• Stable Internet Connection: Since tracks are streamed, a stable connection is needed unless you prepare them offline.

• Track Availability: Some tracks may be region-locked or unavailable depending on licensing.

For DJs who want access to high-quality music on demand, this Tidal DJUCED integration is extremely valuable. However, if you don't have the required TIDAL plan, you'll need alternative workarounds - explained later in Part 3.

Bonus Tip: How to Use DEJUCED with Tidal Offline with Subscription

Once you've subscribed to Tidal with the DJ extension, you're not limited to streaming online. You can also download tracks for offline mixing in DJUCED by following these steps:

Step 1. Launch DJUCED on your computer.

Step 2. Go to the Tidal section and either browse your playlists, albums, or tracks, or use the search bar to find specific songs.

Step 3. Right-click on a track and select 'Add to Offline'.

Step 4. Navigate to the Offline folder under 'My Collection' to view your saved tracks.

After this, your selected TIDAL songs will be available in DJUCED for mixing, even when you're not connected to the internet. However, these are just cached files that can only be used within the DJUCED software itself, and you can't locate the actual local files on your computer. If you want to own your 'own' TIDAL DJUCED mixing tracks that you can use anywhere, please move on to the next section.

Note: You cannot permanently download Tidal tracks in DJUCED, they remain tied to your active Tidal subscription.

Part 3. How to Use Tidal on DJUCED Offline without Premium

As mentioned above, you can only use Tidal with DJUCED offline if you have an active subscription plus the DJ extension add-on. This means you'll always need to pay for a Tidal subscription with the DJ extension, which costs around $20 per month. Even then, the tracks are stored as cache files, not as local audio formats. So why not download your Tidal tracks in common formats such as MP3 using a powerful third-party tool? That way, you can cancel your subscription anytime without losing access to your DJUCED Tidal playlists.

Among many options, we recommend AudFree Tidal Music Converter. It is a professional tool designed for Tidal DJs, supporting downloading and converting Tidal music to six popular formats, including MP3, FLAC, M4B, AIFF, WAV, and M4A in lossless quality. Once converted, the tracks are saved locally on your computer, allowing you to play them offline on any device - even without an active Tidal plan. Your downloads remain in your folders permanently, ready to use anywhere and anytime.

Part 4. FAQs About DJUCED Tidal

There is no doubt that with the rapidly growing popularity of both DJUCED and Tidal, you might want to use Tidal with DJUCED. In the process, you may have certain doubts that need to be clarified. Let us look at some main ones.

Why is the DJUCED recording function disabled when I use TIDAL music?

This is due to copyright and licensing agreements. When you stream music from a service like TIDAL, you don't own the music - you are only given the right to play it for a limited time. To protect these copyrights, the contract between DJUCED and TIDAL explicitly prohibits the software from recording any audio that comes from the streaming service.

What is the audio quality of TIDAL music in DJUCED?

The audio quality is excellent, as TIDAL is known for its high-fidelity (HiFi) and lossless formats. When you stream from TIDAL, you get access to tracks in their original, high-quality format, which is a major advantage for DJs who want to deliver the best sound to their audience.

Why can't I connect my TIDAL account to DJUCED?

This is a common issue with a few potential causes:
✔ Wrong Plan: You need a specific subscription. Only the TIDAL Individual plan with the DJ Extension add-on is compatible. Other plans, such as the Family or Student plans, will not work.
✔ Login Issues: Make sure you are using the correct login credentials. Try logging out and then logging back in to force a fresh connection.
✔ Software or Network Problems: Ensure your DJUCED software is up to date and that your computer's firewall or antivirus isn't blocking the application. Also, check to see if TIDAL's servers are currently offline, as this can prevent a connection.

Why don't my TIDAL playlists show up in DJUCED? What should I do?

This issue is usually a syncing problem. First, check that your playlists are set to "public" within the TIDAL app. If they are, try logging out of your TIDAL account inside DJUCED and then logging back in. This will force the software to re-sync your library and should make your playlists appear.

Why do TIDAL songs load slowly or stop during playback in DJUCED?

This is almost always a network issue. Because you are streaming the songs in real time, you need a stable and fast internet connection. If your Wi-Fi signal is weak, or if you have a slow connection, the tracks may lag, buffer, or stop playing. For the most reliable performance, use a wired Ethernet connection instead of Wi-Fi. You can also try lowering the streaming quality in DJUCED's settings.

Why can't I batch-analyze all the songs in my TIDAL playlists on DJUCED at once?

This is a limitation of the current licensing agreement between TIDAL and DJUCED. The software is not allowed to download and process a large number of tracks at the same time. You have to load each track onto a deck individually to trigger the analysis. This can be time-consuming, but it is a necessary step to comply with the service's terms. For a more flexible and easier use of TIDAL DJUCED mixing, try AudFree Tidal Music Converter, which will be a good option.

After reading the most common FAQs above, if you still have questions, you can visit the official DJUCED TIDAL Integration Information page for troubleshooting.
