What’s better than free dj software for Mac and PC that works with your iPod?

Free dj software for Mac and PC that works with your iPod that doesn’t suck – which is what you get with Beatport Sync.

Native Instruments, which makes the leading DJ software Traktor, and Beatport, an online music service for DJs, have come up with a free dj-style music application based on Traktor.

Equipped with two playback decks and a crossfader section, the software lets you mix individual tracks into a continuous dj mix. Aspects like beat detection, tempo synchronization and loudness optimization are all handled automatically and intelligently by the software.

Beatport Sync can deal with existing digital music collections, and offers extensive tag editing options, archiving features and seamless iTunes and iPod integration. It can also directly browse, play and backup music files from MP3 players, PDAs, USB sticks and cell phones.

They’ve left a ton of Traktor’s features out of Beatport Sync – but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. The app is really easy to use, is pretty powerful, lets you make mixes and sounds great.

If you try out Beatport Sync and make a sweet podcast-friendly mix, put a link in the comments so I can check it out!
