Screens around the building

This page is for people running a venue or a night. If you’re a DJ looking to play, start here.

A venue account can run several screens at once, each with its own branding, its own QR code and its own page behind it.

The kinds of screen

  • Your own DJ display — your personal branding, for when you are the one playing. Every account has one, on any plan.
  • The house screen — the venue’s own. Its branding, its QR code. This is what runs when nothing else is on. Venue Lite and up.
  • The open decks screen — runs the night’s lineup and switches by itself. Venue Lite and up.
  • Numbered screens — extra screens for other rooms. Venue Pro only.

Numbered screens

Before you startNumbered screens needs Venue Pro or above. Compare venue plans.

You get 20 of them. Each one is a separate screen with its own page. A code in the back bar can lead somewhere different from one on the main floor.

Each numbered screen can override the house look for:

  • Its background and colours.
  • Its QR code, and where that code points.
  • Its Instagram connection and its alerts.

A screen inherits anything you do not override from the house screen. Change the venue branding once and every screen without its own settings changes with it.

Add a screen

  1. Open your venue dashboard and choose Add display.
  2. Name it after the room. “Back bar” beats “Display 3”.
  3. Set any overrides it needs, or leave it inheriting the house look.
  4. Launch it on that room’s screen, or print its QR code for the wall.
A screen keeps its own address even if you reorder the list. A code you already printed and stuck to a wall keeps working. Reordering only changes what you see in the dashboard.

Handing a screen to a DJ

You can hand a numbered screen to a resident DJ. That DJ then controls the branding on it, and you cannot edit their settings. This is deliberate — it is their name on the screen.

Turning one off

You can deactivate a screen without deleting it. Use that for a room you have closed for the winter. Everything comes back exactly as it was when you switch it on again.
