synthet1c

do you mean you can already do that or you want to be able to do that? if you already can then that’s news to me, if you can’t it might be possible in the next version as you can color individual tracks in djdecks, but you should request it on the vdj forum where it will be heard by the people who can implement it.

VDJ is “technically” far superior… And I am superior to you and your feeble little mind, now bow before me minion…

Haha I couldn’t resist, read into it what you will but it doesn’t change the fact that your a douchebag.

I think it’s just set so high because they are going for stability on a wider range of operating systems with bad specs over performance on a smaller variety of faster computers, and It would have been set to deal with pentium 4’s probably, so hopefully they move on lol.

I think I saw it in the teaser video, but they said almost all the registry values would be available, hopefully they lower it by default, but it’s easy enough to change.

This is copied from my original post here on ddjt, just reformatted a little 😉

it’s incredibly easy to modify the registry values, just be careful as there is no safety if you mess something up.

this is from the wiki
[INDENT=1] [/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]

DefaultScratchLatency: (By default 2205 samples = 5ms)

[/INDENT]

[INDENT=1]Latency of the scratch.[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]If you get a value smaller than the audio buffer latency, it will use the audio buffer latency anyway.[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]So if you put 78 (or 1), it’s like putting 512 (or whatever your audio-buffers are).[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]But to keep a “good” sound, the DefaultScratchLatency is supposed to be kept bigger than 2 times the maximum delay between two MIDI (or HID or mouse) messages.[/INDENT]
[INDENT=1]That’s why the default has to be kept big.[/INDENT]

just open the start menu, then type “regedit” in the search box…

then once you okay the security, you need to open the filepath to virtual dj, shown down the bottom of the image. when you locate DefaultscratchLatency double click it

then finally when you have double clicked it will open a window, first change the value to decimal, then enter the latency you desire. mine is actually set to 960, this is just to show you guys what was recommended by cstoll

this was done on a 32bit windows 7 starter netbook, i can’t imagine it would be any different on any other windows OS

I disagree… the loops are the same, cues not only have more options but you have 99 of them Vs traktors 8, grids are grids they both do the same thing and both get the start position wrong on modern bass music, this is because the bass drum is quieter and higher in frequency than traditional productions and to compensate the snare is louder and lower hence the software confuses the two… so with any of them you need to correct this, vdj makes it easy allowing you to jump the cbg in quantized steps of freely move it just like traktor using it’s own popout window or vdjscript.

the interface while cheap looking is far from messy, if anything it is sparse… but you can use and customize skins in vdj… this is mine I’m making for going to release for VDJ8, but still waiting to see what new features we will get, but in VDJ7 all of this works as well as being able to independently color the cue point buttons… although at almost 30,000 lines of code it’s best to wait until I know what features will be skinable in version 8.

I should mention regarding the colors the contrast isn’t as high, it just compounds when you shrink the image

the same unwritten rules don’t apply to producers, they make the stuff that makes everyone move… if they want they can do something regular dj can’t do, which is modify the track live, if they wan’t a section enlargened or shorter ableton makes it very easy to do, they can also tweek synths and effects live which brings a whole new level of performance… It sounds like the perfect solution to play your songs with well known songs short of bridging serato, rewiring your daw into vdj or torq or hacking in traktor using jack and the midi clock.

If I produced that is what I would do and stay busy, but I have never been able to make something I’m happy with so prefer to keep my ears tuned in to the mix and myself busy with beatmatching. For me sync takes a lot of the fun out of it and i guess it’s like smoking I like to keep my hands and mind busy.

how about some kind of application usb stick intigration. so you can use your iphone as a browser

It would make it so you can connect to the usb sticks via blutooth then by selecting a song to play next with your iphone you reorder the tracks inside the appropriate usb stick so the next track when you choose with the cdj will be the one you chose with your iphone.. the good thing about this is you could search on your iphone using additional metadata like bpm, key, comment that isn’t available to older generation technology like cdj1000’s ndx8000 rmp3000 etc… and would really make these devices much more user friendly allowing them to be used for longer inspite of newer technologies becoming available.

Beyond an application like this intigrated with hardware or even software I can’t see much use for an iphone in the booth that will actually be useful, anything you use the microphone for will have too much distortian and/or background noise to operate properly in a loud club environment.

Although maybe you could look into creating a bluetooth network in a venue that can send requests to mobile jocks easily.. just make a really small app that the audiance can download in a couple of seconds to make a request.
