Forum: Mix lessons - Topic: how to preview a song?

hi all.

new user here. i'm just checking out the free trial.

i got a question though..

how do i listen/preview another song while CURRENTLY playing another song?

i'd appreciate any help.


thanks.

You need headphones bud. Go to your configuration, and use a headphone output. once you got that worked up, Theres a crossfader that you can slide over that will only play it through headphones. Look into it

In Order to use the headphone previewing mode with Virtual DJ, on your soundcard need to be multi-channel ( 4.1 or 5.1 for example) and have the appropriate connections:

a) Check that your sound card’s speaker mode is set to 4-channel or 5.1-channel, using the sound card's own control panel (Recommended) or at worst through Windows AUDIO PROPERTIES

b) Connect your headphones to the rear speakers connector on your sound card (black connector on most sound cards).

c) Launch Virtual DJ, then go to the Sound Setup, and configure as follow:

- Input : None

- Output(s): Headphone > Master Chan1/2 / headphone Chan3/4

-Soundcard: The name of your soundcard
