I do not want music volume to decrease when I turn on my mic. How do I disable this function?

What type of mic is it?
It has a talk-over feature enabled then likely

it is an MXL 770 into a MOTU M4 - definitely does NOT have a talk-over feature. My question is if there is a way to enable/disable in VDJ?

If you're feeding the mic directly into the MOTU then the ducking is not happening in VDJ, so there's no way of disabling it in VDJ.

I guess this mic is not added to VirtualDJ sound settings, and hence its not part of VirtualDJ so to speak.
You dont turn on off the mic in VirtualDJ right?
Not sure how you turn off at your sound card directly, but perhaps it has a driver utility software where you can change settings.
Alternatively the ducking is happening elsewhere. You said you were broadcasting with shoutcast (using 3rd party app or direct from VDJ= ), audacity etc etc in other post

Yes, the soundcard is assigned in VDJ settings for the microphone and I use VDJ to turn the mic on and off. and yes, I am broadcasting directly to Shoutcast from VDJ.

Ah OK that's different (you didn't mention it before). What skin are you using? Some skins may have script that ducks the music.

If you are using the mic in the VDJ software, you likely have software talk-over feature enabled somehow.
Is same thing happening in default skin? Default skin should only turn on/off mic, and no talk-over feature. Check with that ;-)

yea, I use a default skin, no controller (radio show) and turn the mike on and off via Mixer in Performance mode. I did have a soundcard issue last night so it must be related to that. Thanks for all theinfo.

Must be the Limiter of VirtualDJ then, which is engaged to prevent clipping. Do you see the Limiter icon getting enabled at the top ?

Master Output is not decreased if you set your Microphone Volume lower then, right ?
