Multicam editor for DJ sets · macOS

From a night of footage to a cut DJ set. In minutes.

BACKROOM syncs every camera to your mix, directs the cuts to the music, marks the drops and hands Premiere Pro a clean, editable timeline.

SCROLL
01 — IMPORT

Drop in your Premiere XML.

Every camera, every clip, your master audio — even nested sequences. BACKROOM reads the whole night in one go.

  • FCP7 XML from Premiere Pro
  • Nested master audio supported
  • Missing media relinked automatically
02 — SYNC

Every camera, locked to the mix.

Clips that were stopped, restarted or drifted are matched to your master audio — down to the millisecond — and checked against the camera clocks.

  • Sample-accurate audio matching
  • Clock-guided review for the hard ones
  • Drift-checked over hours of footage
03 — DIRECT

Cuts that follow the music.

BACKROOM listens to the set and directs like a camera operator would: wides on the build, the DJ on the breakdown, close-ups on the hit. Never a dead angle.

  • Camera roles and shares you control
  • Calm, Club, Festival and Hard styles
  • Cuts land on the beat
04 — DROPS

It hears the drop before you do.

Every drop is found and marked on the timeline, with punch-in zooms timed to the moment the bass comes back.

  • Drop markers you can jump to
  • Beat-timed punch-in zooms
  • Optional crowd bed for the energy
05 — STAY EDITABLE

Fix it once. Every cut follows.

Each camera lives in its own nest. Reframe, rotate or grade a camera once and every cut from it updates — no hunting through hundreds of clips.

  • One nest per camera
  • Framing: match, fill or fit
  • A synced, undirected timeline for review
06 — EXPORT

Back to Premiere, finished.

Open the XML in Premiere Pro and you're looking at an edit — synced, directed, marked and organised. Spend your time on the creative part.

  • Clean, labelled tracks
  • Head room before the set starts
  • Your sequence format and name

Built by an editor who shoots DJ sets

Everything between the memory cards and the creative edit.

BACKROOM does the hours of syncing, cutting and organising — then gets out of your way.

Audio-perfect sync

Matches every clip to the master mix, flags anything unsure and lets you review it in seconds.

Camera roles

Wide, DJ, crowd, detail — set each camera's role, colour and share of the edit.

Drop detection

Finds the moment the bass returns and marks it — with zooms timed to land on it.

Nested cameras

Reframe or rotate a camera once inside its nest; every cut from it follows.

Crowd bed

Lay the room's sound under the mix for a live feel — on its own track, easy to ride.

Private by design

Everything runs on your Mac. Works offline for a week between check-ins.

Edit styles

Pick the energy. BACKROOM paces the cut.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Which editing software does it work with?

Adobe Premiere Pro. Export your project as Final Cut Pro XML (File › Export › Final Cut Pro XML), open it in BACKROOM, then import the XML BACKROOM gives back.

Do my videos get uploaded anywhere?

No. All analysis runs on your Mac. BACKROOM only contacts our server to check your account and licence.

How many cameras can I use?

As many as you shot — each camera gets its own colour, role and nest. Most sets use 2 to 8.

Can I change the edit after BACKROOM directs it?

Yes — that's the point. The result is an ordinary Premiere timeline. Cameras live in nests, so framing and rotation fixes apply to every cut at once.

Can I use it on two Macs?

One Mac at a time per account. Moving to another Mac takes one click inside the app.

What if it isn't for me?

Try it free for 3 days. If you buy and change your mind, you get a full refund within 14 days.

Windows?

Not yet. BACKROOM is macOS-only for now.
