NexaLive

DJ Remote Control

Control your entire show from your phone or tablet. A 5-tab mobile UI gives you Now Playing, Rotation, Requests, Controls, and Song Search — all synced to NexaDeck in real-time via WebSocket.

Audience Song Requests

Singers scan a QR code or enter a kiosk code, browse your full songbook, and submit requests — no app install, no signup. Device-based identity remembers returning singers automatically.

Interactive Games

Keep your audience engaged between songs with live games. Create, start, pause, and advance games from the DJ panel. Audience members join from their phones with real-time scoring and leaderboards.
