Please note: you will not have access to the Slipmat Native Streaming Engine by default after being invited to DJ on Slipmat. The engine is currently in alpha testing and only those DJs who are willing to help by contributing are invited to the alpha testing group. If you are willing to participate and help, you can apply, otherwise it’s better to wait for this method to be launched as a public feature.
