Editions
DanceWizard is available in two editions: a basic edition, and a standard edition.
The basic edition allows you to create, edit, and play dances, manage playlists, import and export dance modules, and includes a built-in bug reporting system.
The standard edition adds karaoke cue highlighting, remote control, a portable version of DanceWizard, a dance video player and several other features.
After DanceWizard is first installed it provides complete access to all features in the standard edition for the first 180 days. A basic or standard license must be activated before this 180 trial period expires to continue using the program.
The table below lists the features that are available in each edition.
