Oh and my lappy is brand new dual core HP with onboard sound. Thanks in advance :]. Here is a guide on how you would setup your decks and mixer to interact with VDJ. You'll need an asio soundcard such as the Maya 44 usb. I can mix tracks straight out of VDJ with the Gemini Gain — Your software gain control is found next in the middle console.
Gains need to be set so the meter levels inside your software sit within the green and yellow when your channel faders are set to Too quiet? Always turn up your master volume or speaker volume. EQ — EQ is found below the gain and controls the frequency balance of your tracks. For now, all EQ should be set in the centre. Faders — There are two main faders, the channel faders and crossfader. Channel faders control the channel volume whereas the crossfader controls the blend of the two decks.
Having a crossfader set in the middle and both channel faders turned up will mean both tracks will be audible at the same time.
The crossfader should only be used when you want to engage your mix and fade from one track to another. Others prefer to always leave it centrally and instead just slowly move the channel faders to fade a song in.
The deck waveform displays are designed to allow you to check and navigate the entire track. You can assess where buildups and breakdowns are as well as any interludes, etc. The top waveform display, however, is designed to help you beatmatch the tracks. Of course, the goal is to get them to match exactly. Cueing means to take the first beat of a section of the track and ready it for dropping.
Good places to pick are the first beats after buildups and breakdowns. Practising this is very important. Of course, Virtual DJ does have an auto-sync feature that can bring your song into time but this is not foolproof and will not always work if the beat grids of your tunes are not set up properly. Peaks are typically kicks and snare drums as well as other percussion and hits. Not every tune will mix well with another, especially if the keys do not mix melodically or the beats follow markedly different patterns.
Follow these simple steps and be up and running in a matter of minutes. For best performance, avoid the use of a USB hub or splitter if at all possible. Connect the other end of this cable to an available input on a sound system of your choosing. The CUE buttons located just below the equalizer section allow you to select which track is fed to the cue.
Now that everything is connected, and we understand how the sound is controlled and passed from the hardware , lets make sure the audio is routed to come from the software properly.
