Made the switch to Virtual DJ.
Hey Kirb, let me ask you something if I may, just for S&G, nothing personal...
Do you have Stephane's phone number? Will he answer your call, or return it?
Just saying, y'know
Made the switch to Virtual DJ.
I will speak only for the one I use. Traktor Pro 2. I Mainly mix manually but at times such as for Cocktail Hours and Background Music I will setup a Playlist and have the Software on AutoMix. My DJ Controller can also do this independently of the Computer. There are various options of Auto mixing from which to choose, Fades, Blends, Fast Cuts etc.Can someone explain to me the benifits of DJ Software? Do they mix the songs for you or what?
Club VJ pro is surprisingly stable even running video and pretty versatile given it's low price. It has a rather busy looking set of skins but is still quickly understandable.
I'm a very visual type... I can also hear it too... but, for me it's easier to see it and hear it.Rob,
You can beat mix with VDJ without a problem, you can beat mix manually with most of them. You need to train your ear. Forget about the visuals
I'm a very visual type...
Maybe you can include a flashing blue light in the next update Rick. It flashes to alert the dj that it's now time to press the sync button.
Traktor may or may not do it without my first slowing down the Romantics then Syncing it to the Tammy. I will try this later. If I first make a playlist in the Pioneer MEP 7000 and put these two songs back to back, set to "Blend" or "Mix"I am confident it will do it. I will try that too later. I know that if it is vinyl, I can Slip Cue it from one song seamlessly into the other. My TT are not hooked up and I ain't spending my time searching for vinyl this evening.Don't get me started John...
Well, since I'm already started, I might just as well continue...
I'm certainly FAR from the best mix master in the world, but I know how to mix songs at a party. Hell, if all else fails, I'll grab my geetar, and we'll play/sing some Eagles songs
There's more to being a DJ, then hitting buttons, or scratching vinyl. The software does not matter -- it matters who's using it, and whether they know what the Hell they're doing.
I'd love to see somebody use their silly sync button, to "beat match" from these two songs:
Romantics - What I Like About You
Tammy Wynette - Stand By Your Man
Somebody amuse me, and do that...
