Phase now works natively with rekordbox in HID mode: a single USB cable, instant recognition, and a set of new features built into the software. The update is free for every Phase owner.

In this article, we break down what HID actually is, what it changes compared to a classic DVS setup, and why it is the best way to use Phase with rekordbox.

Already spinning with Phase? Your gear hides a few features most owners never find: check out these secret Phase tricks and see how many you already knew.

HIDとは何ですか？

HID（Human Interface Device）は、2つのUSB介して直接通信できるようにする通信プロトコルです。他の標準的な接続方式よりも、より正確なデータを高速に伝送できるため、タイミングや精度が重要な場面では、標準的なプロトコルとして広く採用されています。

ノートパソコンに接続したCDJでプレイしたことがあるなら、すでにHIDを利用しています。これはDJソフトウェアを制御するためにCDJが依存しているプロトコルであり、クラブの標準仕様がこれに基づいているのには理由があるのです。

With this new integration, Phase uses HID to connect to rekordbox through a single USB cable. Plug in your Receiver, and your Phase gets its own dedicated deck mode inside the software, along with features designed specifically for it.

もはやRCA setup 本格的なオーディオsetup は必要なく、さらに新しい機能も利用できるようになります。

Why use Phase in HID with rekordbox?

HIDへの切り替えは、単なるちょっとした調整ではありません。実際にプレイする際にどのような変化が生じるか、以下に説明します：

1. A simpler setup. This is the fastest and most convenient way to use Phase. Plug your Receiver into your laptop via USB, rekordbox recognizes it instantly, and you are ready to play in about a minute. There is no audio routing to configure and nothing to wire behind the mixer, whether you are practicing at home or taking over a booth between two sets. And if you prefer your classic DVS setup via RCA, it remains fully supported.

2. A performance upgrade. In a DVS setup, your turntable movements travel as an analog timecode signal: through RCA cables, into an interface, then converted and decoded by the software. Every step adds a bit of latency and a bit of noise. In HID, none of that happens: Phase sends pure digital position data straight to rekordbox. The result is the lowest latency you can get with Phase, rock-solid tracking, and a response that follows every micro-movement, from the softest drag to the fastest crab. It is the same reason CDJs run on HID: when precision matters, a direct connection wins.

3. Exclusive features, built into rekordbox. Once Phase is detected, everything below activates automatically:

• Remote 任意Remote 割り当てることができます。 rekordbox 各ジョグパネルのDVS メニューに新しい「WIRELESS」オプションがrekordbox 、「WIRELESS (A)」と「WIRELESS (B)」は、Receiver Remotes Receiverに対応しています。Remote 、setupデッキ3やデッキ4を含め、任意のジョグパネルをRemote 。
• Battery level, on the jog panel. The battery level of each Remote shows directly in the rekordbox interface, right where you are already looking. Your eyes stay on your mix, not on Phase Manager.
• トラック終了警告。トラックの終わりに近づくと、Remote LEDストリップが点滅Remote 。scratch波形をちらっと確認する必要はもうありません。
• トラックの読み込みアニメーション。デッキに新しいトラックを読み込むと、対応するRemote LEDが点灯する短いアニメーションRemote 、読み込みが完了したことを確認できます。暗いブースでも作業の流れを途切れさせない、細やかな配慮です。
• 緊急INTモード。万が一予期せぬ事態が発生した場合でも、デッキを内部モードに切り替えると、音楽は再生され続けます。

How to set up Phase with rekordbox in HID

The integration is already live on Phase Essential, as a free update. And since we build our integrations with the future in mind, the work is already done on Phase Pro: it will support rekordbox in HID from day one when it launches.

The setup takes about a minute: update your firmware via Phase Manager, update rekordbox, plug in your Receiver, and assign your Remotes. Everything is detected automatically, and you are ready to play.
