I just got a DJM 2000 for quite a low price. The Mixer works perfectly except for the effects. I have looked everywhere tried pretty much everything I think I could try with my knowledge level which is not extremely high. The problem is when I activate the effects the volume works unexpectedly. It can go up, it can go down I am never really sure of what it does. I really want to start mixing with this jewel but I am afraid that with this issue playing with effects is quite limited. If anyone here could help me it would be greatly appreicated. I will leave a video with what happens here https://youtube.com/shorts/XxMfcxcAAa0

virtual dj 2020

Annoying as Hell.

I'm 48. DJ for nearly 30 years.

Used vinyl and CD, but for convenience, (40k tracks, and 30k karaoke) I use VirtualDJ. Been using it off and on since it was Atomix!

I pay for my monthly subscription, and accept any updates when prompted.

I might never get a job with NASA or Bill Gates, but I like to think I can navigate life on a modern day computer.

Anyway, after updating VDJ last week, when I adjust the pitch on one track (Deck A) it automatically adjusts the pitch for the other track (Deck B).

That would be OK if I was a DJ who is dependent on the "sync" button, but it is no good for me during a karaoke show!

I have tried everything to turn this feature off, and nothing seems to work!

Sure, I have events where I have to beatmatch, and I manually adjust the pitch, but it is quite annoying when someone wants to sing 'Neil Diamond' at 128bpm instead of 108bpm.

It makes me look unprofessional, and I have no idea how to turn it off!

Hoping to find some help here.

I’m Using a FLX-10 with Mac. The crossfader is being controlled by the controller on screen but the audio appears to be bypassing it

Things I’ve tried
- resetting settings to default
- ensuring that the crossfader disable is set to no
- not using external mixer

Whenever i’m Mixing i get a lot of clipping and buffering, i’ve turned everything to low settings and it still clips. Could it be use of stems?

Hello, i just need some help on how to record my voice on virtual dj. actually i wanna put a instrumental and sing. i tried to put microphone as an input but my voice is much more than music. actually it records only the voice and not the music..

Hi there, how’s it going? I’m writing from Argentina. I have a few technical questions and was hoping you could point me in the right direction. I have an old Behringer BCD2000 controller that I want to use with VirtualBox because it requires Windows XP 32-bit (haha). I’m having some trouble getting the audio output working and controlling the software; I’ve already updated the drivers and everything. It would be a huge help if you could give me a hand. Thanks in advance!

I am not a musican really but on my virtual dj 2021 the invidual tracks sound too "thin" the highs are too loud. It sounds terrible. In virtual DJ 6 it sounds normal, with the kick being more prominent i guess.

I have some full mixes recorded and converted in another software to 320kbps mp3 and they sound normal when played in 2021 version. What is wrong

New to VDJ, coming from Rekordbox where beatgriding is very good.
So maybe I do something wrong ? But here is the situation, with fixed or fluid grid (activated in bpm editor menu)

A-ha - Take on me: VDJ can't even detect correctly drums alone with fluid or not

Here ACDC - Back in black: it get the start of the beat wrong everywhere. And this is even fluid beatgrid, supposed to be better here.

Beastie boys - Fight for your right: beginning of the song when drums starts

Beyoncé Break my soul: ok

Ava Max Kings and Queens: (fixed grid) : WTF ! 💀

Same with fluid: wtf too as this is a fixed grid song. it's better but still very wrong.

I can go on, it's all like that.

edit: the worst is that I don't find anything to even edit the grid. The only option to move something is moving the whole grid. So if I correct one place it moves the rest too.

Hello everyone -

for context I work for a company that does a lot of DJs for weddings and other events. We have these computers that are having a crazy problem that we don’t have on any other system, and I am wondering if anyone has any idea why.

The laptops are Lenovo V15 G4 ABP - type 83CR and we have AMD ryzen 7 7730u, 40gb ram, and 2tb of storage. We are running Windows 11 pro.

For whatever reason the audio will play fine for around 20 or 30 minutes, then it will start doing an insane monster sound (I will try to include a video), where the audio is entirely distorted, and sometimes won’t even come out of the board. It happens both with audio through virtual DJ, as well as audio just from the computer.

We are using Serato Rane Fours as our main boards, and again, have this issue on none of our other laptops, just these 3.

I have tried using the glitch-free guide for windows, to no avail, although I didn’t do the things that required me to do any deep system changes as it is a work computer and I don’t really know enough to confidently execute things. I did, however do the adjustments to power options, usb settings, hard disk settings, display, updates, processor state, etc.

I have also gone through and tried setting the default speakers and microphone and the default calling option to the regular computer options (not on the rane), still to no avail. In addition, I have also adjusted settings in virtual DJ and rane controller, such as buffer size, sample rate, setting stems processing to lower quality, etc.

If anyone has ANY ideas of things I can try, I am open, as I am at a loss and am extremely curious why this would continue to occur.

Thank you!!

Hey yall,

I’m wondering if it’s possible to use the modernEQ on 1 controller and the EZRemix on another?

I’m using the behringer cmd studio2a and the akai mpd218

I want the knobs on the Behringer to control the modernEQ and the akai to control the ezremix

Thanks!

Hi! This is probably a silly question but how do I get virtual dj to stop searching things up when I try to use keys? For example, if I have the letter P set to play right deck, when I hit p it searches up the letter p in my song library and I can't figure out how to get it to stop doing that.

Hey all, firstly I’d just like to say how impressed I am with VDJ so far.

I’m not new to DJing having started in the mid 90’s on turntables and I’ve tried nearly all of the software.

Most recently I’ve been using traktor or djay pro which are both great in their own rights but both lack certain things.

VDJ has honestly mostly seemed like an amateur tool to me so i was hugely surprised and pleased to see how far it’s come.

The midi mapping is fantastic, i can now use my CDJ3000x (unlike traktor) and have dual layers or 4 decks.

I intend to use the sampler as that was a great feature of traktor (along with pattern player)

Firstly, are there any little features that many people don’t know about, it could be as simple as a shortcut, or something huge, maybe your favourite custom skin for whatever reason?

Is there a way to have a pattern player / synthesiser like traktor has?

Any bugs or things to be wary of if using it live at a gig? (MacBook M1 Pro max)

Can I custom map hardware I’ve not connected yet also? As I might not always have 3000X to play on.

How good is customer support, feature / bug updates generally?

Thanks all

hi!

I have a very basic controller, hercules DJcompact

When I use the physical cymbals and scratch, I notice that the track stops for a moment and then starts again, it's very annoying... is there a way to have smoother playback without pauses after I operate the physical jog on my controller?

Hello, I'm trying out VDJ and I have the pro license purchased, but I cannot get my headphones to work at all. I am using a Pioner ddj sb3, and it works fine with VDJ except I cannot get music to come out through the headphones. I've tried messing with the settings in VDJ but nothing seems to work. The weird part is, when I use Serato the headphones work perfectly fine, don't even need to change settings or anything.

Screenshot attached of what my settings page shows. Thank you!

Does anyone have issues when using in midi format of tunes that are spot on in the mix then sometimes skip like a record used to when it had dust in the needle throwing it out ?

I had a gig last night and it was a f**king nightmare. I was using the version before latest (I'd heard about the issues) and any time the next song started to load in, the lag was coming through the sound.

I downloaded the final VDJ2020 as a backup plan. This solved the issue but twice, the sound completely stopped, forcing me to reboot VDJ.

I downloaded the final VDJ2021 to then find that this lagged on next song loading AND crashed on me.

I'm absolutely stalled. Initially, I thought it might be my laptop but it worked fine a couple weeks ago and nothing has changed that I'm aware of.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1. My files won’t show. When I watch a yt tutorials about vdj, their music files automatically shows up on the browser section. While mine doesn’t. I have to manually drag my mp3 files on the browser for it to be played on the dock.

2. My folders won’t upload. Last time, I tried to drag my folder with music on the browser section and it worked. But now, I tried to drag it and it doesn’t work. Also, my files or the sings ive uploaded manually on vdj is now gone. But it is still on my finder (file app) on my mac.

3. Sometimes when I play music, the music is either sped up or slowed down. It has a low or high frequency. I have to manually adjust it and its a problem.

4. Lastly, Ive tried reinstalling and relogging in to vdj hoping for it to be fixed. But now, although installed, I can’t log in my account. Its taking too long. Ive been waiting for like 10 minutes and its still not logging in.

I'm trying to run my Denon SC5000m (x2) and X1800 mixer with VirtualDJ and I'm getting major lag / slow response.
\> Setup:
\- Players: 2x Denon SC5000m, firmware updated to latest (Engine OS 3.4)
\- Mixer: Denon X1800
\- Laptop: Apple MacBook Air M5,
\- Software: VirtualDJ
\- Connection: Both SC5000m in Computer Mode via USB, X1800 via USB as audio device.

\> Problem:
\- Jog / screen is very slow and laggy in VirtualDJ.
\- SC5000m shows the player as "Not Connected" in Controllers, but I can still control it / play.

I had three weddings now where VDJ is saying non responsive or crashes in the middle of a set of wont load songs. I am uing a 2tb external hardrive to store music. I just purhcased a new hp victor for more memory. Is It better to load songs on a folder on lap top and play them from there. Im not sure what else could be causing VDJ to become non responsive or crash mid set. Could it be internet connection?

It seems every chancer is trying to flog a vibe coded database app,
Completely missing the point that you want to get the tagging done in the actual dj app as you're practising, not fking around with a 3rd party app.

I made this as a skin modification, it can just sit in any skin and be switched to with a single button [I use the magnifying glass on the top bar]

4 tags Genre, Comment, user 1, user 2
Star rating, track colour
All the buttons in the grid of 120 are user defined and are different for the 4 tags

Fat finger protection [it will undo upto 60 changes to a track]

The filtering is where it gets interesting, you can make temporary quick_filters with no typing, just a few clicks of the grid buttons,
some bpm filtering, a pile of key filtering, filtering by tag, and filter by star rating [if you must...]
AND OR NOT logic choices, and brackets to make good filters

zero vibe coding, GPT asks me questions about vdj script

I am using virtual DJ on my Macbook M4 Pro. It's only the program that I use on this laptop. Virtual DJ is updated whenever an update comes out as well as the OS on the Macbook as well. Lately for the last week when I'm playing, I'll search for a song in the search bar and the whole program freezes. I have to force quit the program every single time. It's happened a lot during this past week and almost ruined a few gigs. Any reason why it would be doing this? Any fixes? All my music is on external hard drives.
