This guide is for Rekordbox but may work with other DJ software if it supports setting your master out device.

Step 1 – Update

Ensure that you are running the latest version of rekordbox, that your drivers and firmware are up-to-date, and that your broadcast software is current as well.

Step 2 – Download the Necessary Software

There is just one extra tool necessary for us Mac users: BlackHole

Install it and that’s it – there is no application icon, it will appear only within the Audio Devices.

Step 3 – Configure Master Output

Open Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup – if the Audio Devices window is not visible, click Window > Show Audio Devices.

Right-click on the BlackHole 16ch item and select Use This Device For Sound Output:

You’ll see a little speaker icon appear beside the BlackHole 2ch device.

Quit Audio MIDI Setup.

Step 4 – Configure rekordbox Audio

Connect your DDJ-1000 and power it on. If you see NO AUDIO DRIVER appear on the jog displays, launch the DDJ-1000 Driver Version Display Utility then quit it; you’ll now see Pioneer DJ and rekordbox in the displays.

Launch rekordbox, open Preferences > Audio and verify that the DDJ-1000 is set as the Audio device. Tick the box below it to enable the PC MASTER OUT function, and the Master Output should now show DDJ-1000 + Blackhole 2ch:
