Greetings,
I'm a new user of VDJ, pretty simple to use. The song structure analyzer helps a bit when crossfading to the next song but I often find myself mixing right into something less-than-ideal.
I'm assuming there is some way to monitor the "off-deck" (the one that the audience cannot hear) but I don't know how. Does it involve a second sound card? Are there any "gotchas" when purchasing one? I'm running WinXP Pro so I'm assuming a second card will not cause too much hardware grief.
Also, where would the settings be for this? Can I use one set of headphones to accomplish this? I'm *thinking* I could have two video cards but have one card's output/left deck be sent into only the left headset and the other card's output/right deck be sent to the right headset.
Does this sound sane? Is there a better way to do this? If anyone has ANY suggestions I'd appreciate it.
Thanks,
Jason

Jason,
You need to be a full license user of a legitimate version of Virtual Dj to use the headphone features. Will make your mixes easier once you can enable this feature. Buy the product and the features you need will become available. Also, matching your BPM's can help keep the beat steady. Also read the excellent Dj-In-Norway's advice colum in the Mixes forums. If you want to hear what good mixes sound like, tune in to Virtual Dj radio, or better yet, tune in during the upcoming special session of Disco!

Hi Shaggy,
Thanks for the reply.
I actually have purchased the full version, I'm just at work right now so I'm not able to provide my registration code.
But do I need a second sound card?
Thanks,
Jason

Jason,
It is not necessary to have a second sound card. If you already have a 4.1, 5.1 or 7.1 sound card you could use this for your setup. You could set the front speakers to your mix and set the rear speakers to your headphone.
Like said before, this is only working with the full version of VDJ

I'm finally home, loaded up VDJ.
I see Set > Sound Config. I have two columns which can be controlled independently. On the left is a sound card, a sound card with 4.1 overlaid on the image and a dual card pic. I've set it to the 4.1.
I have a Soundblaster PCI512, btw. My sound drivers and DirectX drivers are all 100% up-to-date.
On the right I have a pic of a speaker, a pic of a speaker and a pair of headphones and in the third box I see a mixer. I've selected speakers plus headphones.
So ...where do I tell VDJ to move the left deck to the front speakers and the right deck to the back speakers?
Actually, I'm beginning to think that this sound card isn't 5.1, 4.1 or 7.1 compatible because it only has one out and one of *those* would have more outs.
Hm. Can anyone offer some advice? I might just throw in another sound card. Looks like this is capable of handling it (the two sound cards option) but ...where would I tell each deck to go to each card??
Thanks,
Jason

Wow, you guys are brutal.
I purchased this machine at a flea market maybe three or four months ago. This program is on it. Therefore I purchased this program.
Listen up, geniuses. If I ask some 68 year-old woman standing on a church lawn to fork over all the software licenses for her grandson's game PC I'm going to get a stare kind of like a dog after you've shown it a card trick.
And for all of you who point out that it's a cracked version so I should now delete it, don't insult the intelligence of everyone here.
You'd feel obligated to delete the copy of Final Cut Pro when your buddy lets you buy his Mac G5 because you're a graphic arts major and he's going to spend the next two years with the Peace Corps?
Bullsh*t.
I've gotta say, this program is awesome and if the current version is as inexpensive as I've heard ($60ish) then I'll probably end up getting it.
But I sure as hell won't be coming here for support.
What a bunch of dicks.
xo,
Jason
