Deemix Gui Arl
Here’s a useful text explanation for using deemix GUI with an ARL:
What is an ARL?
ARL (Authentication Required Link) is your unique Deezer session token. It allows deemix to download music in high quality (FLAC, 320 kbps MP3) directly from Deezer.
How to get your ARL:
- Log into Deezer in a browser (Chrome/Firefox).
- Open Developer Tools (
F12or right-click → Inspect). - Go to Application tab → Storage → Cookies →
https://www.deezer.com. - Look for a cookie named
arl. - Copy its value (a long string of letters/numbers).
How to use ARL in deemix GUI:
- Launch deemix GUI.
- Go to Settings (gear icon).
- Paste the ARL into the ARL field.
- Click Save.
- Restart deemix.
Pro tip:
- Free Deezer accounts can download up to 128 kbps MP3.
- A Deezer Premium/HiFi account is required for 320 kbps MP3 or FLAC.
- Keep your ARL private — anyone with it can access your Deezer account.
Installation and Requirements
- Cross-platform: Typically available for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
- Dependencies: Python (specific versions depending on release), FFmpeg (for format conversion and tagging), and standard GUI libraries packaged with the distribution.
- Recommended: A modern CPU, stable internet connection, and sufficient disk space for music files.
- Security note: The ARL token is sensitive — treat it like a password. Store it securely and avoid sharing it.
3. Privacy and Security
While deemix is open-source and generally considered safe, you are extracting a token that grants access to your account.
- Never share your ARL with anyone. If someone has your ARL, they have access to your Deezer account.
- If you suspect your ARL has been compromised, simply change your Deezer password. This will invalidate the old ARL instantly.

The deemix-gui refers to the graphical user interface version of the software, making it accessible to users who prefer a visual application over command-line tools. It allows users to download tracks, albums, and playlists in high-quality formats (up to FLAC) and automatically applies metadata tags and cover art to the files.
3. Concurrent Downloads
- Set to 3-5 simultaneous downloads. Higher numbers can cause IP bans from Deezer.
Part 2: What is an ARL and Why Do You Need It?
ARL stands for Account Request Link or, more accurately, a persistent token stored in your browser's cookies. Think of it as a digital key. When you log into Deezer via a web browser, the server gives your browser an ARL cookie. This cookie tells the server, "This user is already verified; don't ask for a password again."
