Thought this was a joke at first, then, programmed the G key out of curiosity and was gobsmacked that it worked. Hilarious!!!! :-)

I sent a PM to JPB last night, the mapper will have to be completely rewritten and tested which could take some time. I'm just sticking with 5.2 for just now.

That is more a function of your soundcard. Also you are playing mp3 or wav or lossless files on a mac they are mastered at a lot less bit rate so you would loose quality in the up sampling.

Yesterday my first video gig with the 6.01.
It was a disaster.
The vids stutter every time I played one.
Also it gave problems with recognizing my DMC2.
I couldn't play along with this configuration.
Therefore I decided the uninstall it and re-installed the 5.1 version that I had before.
For me it wasn't a succes to work with the 6.01.
Maybe you don't have problems at all but you really need to test it very good before you use it.
That was my experience last night

It doesn't matter if the software supports 24bit/96kHz audio, if your source material isn't encoded with such high bitrate and sampling frequency.
CDs - and therefor MP3's ripped from CDs - and pretty much every single MP3 bought from any online store is 16bit/44khz. The only higher frequency source material is available as DVD-A or SACD formats, which haven't exactly boomed yet on the mainstream.
Besides, this whole "Traktor sounds better" claim has been empirically proven as a myth in a previous thread. However, if somebody could get their hands on some 24bit/96kHz material to play via Traktor, then it would naturally sound better. I'm feeling lazy to confirm this myself, but I wonder does Traktor really support such sampling frequencies or is it just the specs of Audio8 sound card?

I would never install and do a gig with any software ,without giving it at least a week of testing on my own first. I carry 2 laptops with me to all gigs one will have a know stable version, the 2nd one I upgrade. I will play with the newest version every night, until I feel confident in it. The laptop with the older version stays the main playback advice, until I am satisfied.

I have listened to some DVD-A and to be honest with you, on popular (or anything you would play in a nightclub/bar/lounge/car/home/cell phone or i-pod) I challenge ANYONE, and I mean ANYONE who can tell the difference between 320kbs ac3 16/44 and a DVD-A 24/96. Yes MAYBE if you specialize in acoustic testing and you have trained ears and are listening to PERFECTLY recorded classical music and you are in a specially built soundroom then, yeah, you could tell the difference., but nobody else can.
I'm sorry, anyone that SAYS they can tell the difference in the bass, clap, sample, rap, overdub, sound effect, repeat sequence 40 times world of contemporary music has their proverbial lips on someone's proverbial ass to get some free SWAG. Hell 99.9 percent of the population of the entire "erf" thinks their blackberry is Hi-Fi!

It would if the software passes audio data off to the audio layer 1on1 which it doesn't in most cases. Audio passes through EQ/Effects and then some plus generally some processing is done by the software. So yes, it would require the software to support it.
But then again, in real-life applications the advantage for DJ apps like this are very slim at best..

side by side with vdj
and i can tell that Traktor Scratch had a much more rich cleaner sound playing the same song .
with mixvibes (which i have) has about the same as Traktor Scratch .
anyway im hoping vdj comes up and beats down mixvibes and Traktor Scratch on the sound front and the scratching front.
as for now. as far as scratching. mixvibes is the king it as more of a natal feel to vinyl .
being that was a turntablist (im going to get be in to it ) i can tell

We have already proven that there is absolutely no sound difference between traktor and VDJ. So, whatever you are hearing is likely imaginary. Have a look at the following thread: http://www.virtualdj.com/forums/107227/General_Discussion/Kind_of_embarrassed.html?search=rta&page=1 for actual proven testing not "I can tell..." B.S.
For everyone else here who has said they hear a difference, I call B.S. Go and read that thread as well. Cyder I wish you'd chime in here as well to let everyone know about those test we ran!
