Use the MiniMash application available on the App Store. MiniMash is one of the simpler applications to use in this genre. With MiniMash, you can pick songs directly from your iTunes account and then mash them together. Once you select a song, it must be analyzed by the application before you can begin mashing it. MiniMash synchronizes the beats of two songs automatically when they're loaded. It also helps match the pitch of both songs as well. This is an application designed for the average user and not for experienced mixers.
