I used Virtual DJ 15 years ago as a wedding DJ, then took a long hiatus until late last year when I decided to be a club DJ in less than 2 months. Still had the lifetime license, so made sense to just use VDJ.

I never found it overwhelming or busy. I've looked at it as having a bunch of features waiting for me to discover/learn.

If there's one thing I find confusing about other software/standalone systems it's the data management.

DJs that keep touching the knobs without adjusting anything - Look Mom, I'm DJing.

You are testing one of the most powerful DJ softwares in the world. That requires some learning from videos, other users, etc. to learn quickly. You can’t take a sophisticated racing car out for a spin like a normal sedan. An orientation is necessary. Enjoy.

Allready been said, But to get your virtual dj effects to echo out with the fader down you just need to go into setting and find the fx section and change it to post fader. pretty much any problem you run into can be fixed in the settings.

as a VDJ pro user who is just now after 5 years starting to mess around with Serato this video was HILARIOUS! because its me.... but looking at Serato like what the hell is this!? hhhahah great vid

[eklektek]

There are settings to make all shortcuts the same as serato. There are also skins to make it look and feel like serato.

It's crazy that we are still having these debates about which is better VDJ or Serato. I have and use both, but prefer VDJ for MY dj needs. I don't Dj in clubs, I do weddings and other events so VDJ works great for me. I do agree with many of the comments, it's unfair to jump into a software that you don't use and have a negative view because it's not like the one you are used too. If all software were the same we would complain about that too. VDJ is used for so many other things other than just djing and that's the option that it gives. Serato is a power house dj program. Biased comparison videos really is not a comparison but a reason to say why I don't really like the other software. Many say that VDJ is clunky and busy, but for the price, I want ALL those options there, it's just my choice to use them. Truth of the matter is, the only people who care what dj software we use is US, the people we are rocking for could care less as long as the music is good!

You can't have both a lot more features and be less complicated. But in fact you can. With VDJ the whole UI can be redesigned element by element to be exactly what you need. It takes a bit of time but you can pay someone to design your perfect layout, down to buttons, sizes and pixels. Then you're set for years.

VDJ is compatible with a lot of DJ equipments. I use it as a backup when the controller isn’t compatible with Rekordbox. You didn’t need to use Lexicon with VDJ. VDJ automatically connects with other DJ software. I started using VDJ in the early 2000s.

This video is hilarious. I like the fact that this man knew nothing about the software and did a review on the fly. lol lol. Man making virtual dj look soooo complicated when it really isn't. Virtual DJ does alot more than Serato and that's why it may seem complicated to someone who never used it before. It takes times to learn all what VDJ can do that Serato cannot. Love the video still though. lol lol. Good vibe.

Trailing stop in the fx edit tab just press the small plus sign to open on the echo or delay effect

Virtual DJ is super tight man! I really do credit them for their ability to support so many controllers and on top of that allow changing the mappings on most of those controllers. I broke a tempo slider, and it sucked but with a little tweaking I was able to unbind it and instead manipulate the BPM via the pads, I gotta say I'm better working the BPM using the pads since my tempo sliders are freaking tiny, never liked them anyway. That's the wonderful thing about VDJ is that you can make it 100% personal to you. This is why it's my favorite.

[Salsuero]

It's not more or less comfortable. It's a matter of comfort level. When you're used to it, you're used to it. Anything else is foreign. They're both equally complicated and not complicated. You just get used to things and then you're gold.

Virtual DJ is the best DJ software on the market .I know this because I use .traktor.serato . djay pro.djuce and rekordbox .and none compare to vdj.

[hardkore]

VDJ has skins and had stems long before the Serato 3.0 update. Its all a matter of preference but VDJ just offers so many user configurable options that Serato does not. But the main issue for Serato (for me) is that you need a fairly decent laptop to use the software as it is a resource hog. VDJ can run on a potato laptop with no issues.

Nice vid tutorial, it took a bit to figure out the functions of virtual dJ and I must say it has advantages over Serato, one thing I notice was I could use any streaming sites at the same time, that blew me away because everything is at my fingertips. I’m still learning and love it. Thank you for the demo

[MARS_]

I tryed Virtual DJ Pro once with an overlay that fits the controller, it really blew my mind.

You should try an overlay for your Setup.

I don´t like Serato.

Rekordbox is ok to use but too much micromanagment, hiding buttons and options that could set wrong.

Still need to investigate Traktor.

[djmcprof]

Virtual dj is way more easy to use than serato dj pro....I think u need a good Mastery for all the softwares to clearly explain the lapses ..I mean no disrespect....

[ericbarber]

dj cee b the only reason vdj is pricey is because the video software comes free and plays all video formats, unlike serato only mkv and mp4, or you have to convert the format, oh plus serato video u have to pay for. there is alot u can do with vdj, like you can still mix with vdj w/o a controller, while serato is only a player. plus u n change ur interface to match ur hardware. but like i said before i have both, but mostly use vdj.

[djqwik]

I don’t think he should have made a video until he knew what he was doing somewhat. First off, virtual dj reads serato crates, so you don’t need any additional software. Second I would have changed to the pro skin. Just this entire video looks like her has never touched Virtual dj until the video.
