I’m going to assume you aee on PC for this.. If you are on Mac then just say..
There are several options.
1. Windows is mucking up your soundcard and getting confused when you plug the controller in.
To Solve (Hopefully):
– Right click on the speaker icon in the taskbar
– Select “Playback Devices”
– Select your internal card (Normally called “Speakers” and it should have “IDT” or “Realtek” or similar written underneath)
– Select the “Set Default” button.
If this doesn’t work, keep going..
2. You have the settings wrong in VDJ. You say you have tried every combo but quite frankly I think you may just be doing it wrong..
– Go to Settings
– Go to the “Audio” tab
– Select “Speakers Only” and then “Internal Card” along the top.
– Hit “Apply”
Hopefully that will work – if not, keep going..
– Still on the audio tab, use the manual config table to set it up right.
– The columns should be as follows:
— Source: master
— Sound Card: (**The name of your internal soundcard in your laptop**) Mine is “High Definition Audio Device”.
— Channel: 1&2
— **The last column is automatic**
Hit Apply.
It should look like this:

3. If it still doesn’t work, go to the “Options” Tab.
– Select “Show Advanced Options” (top left)
– Go to the “Audio” section.
– Make sure that “exclusiveAudioAccess” is set to “Yes”
– Close settings and try again.
If it still doesn’t work, then I don’t know what the issue is – assuming of course that you have the master volume set right in VDJ, (and that the master volume control on your controller is up as well as the channel faders and the crossfader is in the right place?).
Good luck..
