Aspiring iArtist deeje is pleased to announce version 6 of tappr.tv, featuring Beat Matching controls and Network IO, giving VJs new stunning interactive visuals at live events.

Unlike traditional "algorithmic" music visualizers, tappr.tv lets users tap, swipe, tilt, twirl, and hum to dynamically create kinetic, multi-layered visual "dances" to their favorite music. Beat matching controls lets users synchronize loops of visuals, and network IO enables multiple iDevices to dance simultaneously.
