BallparkDJ is compatible with songs purchased through iTunes, downloaded via Apple Music, or you can use any of the 15 hard-driving BallparkDJ clips included with the app.
This Short Video breaks down the music options and explores the decision between Apple Music vs Purchased iTunes Songs.
Pro-Tip: Subscribing To Music Services
Consider subscribing to Apple Music for a vast library access. Apple usually offers a 3-month free trial, allowing unlimited song changes throughout your sports season.
Step By Step Guide To Music Setup
Step 1: Accessing Music in the App
Navigate to a player profile and tap on the microphone/music icons to access the music setup.
Step 2: Adding Music to Players
In the Edit Music screen, browse and select your tune from iTunes music, Apple Music, or BallparkDJ Clips.
Step 3: Editing Music Clips
After selecting a song, set the starting offset and the duration using sliders or the -/+ buttons.
Step 4: Adjusting Volume and Fade Options
Back in the player's profile, adjust the relative volume of voice and music to ensure a balanced playback.
Step 4: Dealing with Playback Issues
For music skipping or not playing, ensure the song is downloaded to your device and not just added to an Apple Music playlist. Songs must be added to your library for playback in BallparkDJ.
Advanced Tips
Music Sharing Across Devices
Sharing a team setup allows the music to align perfectly, provided the recipient also subscribes to
Apple Music.
Using External Music Sources
Upload audio files to your iCloud drive and access them through the External Sources selection in the Edit Music screen for more personalized choices.

If songs from an imported Apple Music playlist won't play, add them to your library individually by long-pressing the song in the Music app and selecting "Add to Library".
