A control surface for
the records you love.
PhaseCrate is a crate manager for DJs and vinyl collectors. Every catalog number, BPM, condition note and pressing year lives in a single file on your machine. Sync with Discogs when you want to, turn on Cloud if you want it across devices. Build sets, not subscriptions.
Built for the people who own the records,
not just play them.
The features below show up the moment you open the app — no plugins, no add-ons, no upsell to unlock the table view.
Set planner
Build Friday's set across warm-up, peak, and closer. PhaseCrate warns you when two records clash on BPM or key before the needle ever drops.
Discogs sync, two-way
Pull your collection in once. After that, every change you make locally — adds, notes, sales — syncs back to Discogs on your schedule.
BPM and key detection
With PhaseCrate Cloud, every record gets a BPM and key — we find previews online for each release and work it out in the background.
Custom fields, dense tables
Press, matrix, sleeve grade, pressing plant, price paid. Add columns the way a spreadsheet feels — never a "premium tier" away.
Record Player
A listening view for the collection you already own. Hit play on any record, queue up a few, browse by what you've been spinning lately.
One file. No lock-in.
Your collection is a single file you can back up, copy to a drive, or sync via iCloud. Yours to keep, never held hostage.
A set is a set,
not a playlist.
The Set Planner is its own canvas — warm-up, peak, and closer as their own columns, each tracking its running time. Drag a record between columns and PhaseCrate flags the BPM jump or key clash before you make it.
- Three columns: warm-up, peak, closer. Each with its own clock.
- Camelot wheel + Open Key compatibility hints inline.
- BPM-clash warnings when two records won't blend.
- Save sets, jump back into them whenever.
Your collection lives on
your hardware.
By default, everything PhaseCrate knows about your records lives in a single file on your computer — back it up to an external drive, iCloud, Dropbox, or a USB stick. It stays on your device unless you turn on Cloud sync.
- Works fully offline — DJ booths, planes, basements.
- Anonymous, opt-out usage analytics and crash reports — never your records.
- Optional cloud sync across your own devices.
- The collection lives in a file you control.
Trusted by people who actually carry crates.
"Finally — a crate manager that doesn't try to be Spotify. The Discogs sync alone replaced two scripts and a spreadsheet I'd been maintaining since 2016."
"My collection lives in one file I can back up to my home server. That's it. That's the feature. Everything else is a bonus."
"PhaseCrate runs cold. No spinner, no loading state, no 'syncing your library'. It's just there. The way software used to feel."
