There are some options that are very important to set up in Virtual DJ<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can type in the search bar to find them more easily \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<\/colgroup>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Setting<\/td>\nSet to<\/td>\nWhat it does<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
loadSecurity<\/td>\nOn<\/td>\n\n
\n
Blocks you from loading a song on a deck that’s playing (so you don’t stop the song that’s playing on the speakers)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
autoGain<\/td>\nauto<\/td>\n\n
\n
Automatically adjusts the gain of each track to make the volume similar between tracks. Otherwise you will need to adjust a lot more<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
zeroDB<\/td>\n-6dB<\/td>\n\n
\n
Makes autogain set the gain on each deck a little lower. The default level is too high and it’s too easy to start clipping. -6dB is safer<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
masterTempo<\/td>\nYes<\/td>\n\n
\n
Makes the song sound the same when you change the tempo (so it doesn’t sound lower when you slow it down)<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
pitchQuality<\/td>\n3<\/td>\n\n
\n
Sets the quality of the audio when you change the pitch (tempo). If you set it to 4 it will make your computer work harder than necessary.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
pitchrange<\/td>\n25<\/td>\n\n
\n
25 is a big change, but occasionally I might slow something down this much, but not more. Set to 25 so your pitch fader stays in this range<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Others to consider<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
controllerTakeoverMode<\/td>\ntakeover<\/td>\n\n
\n
Tells VDJ how to respond when your controller’s knobs and faders don’t match what the software shows (like if autogain sets the<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
controllerTakeoverModePitch<\/td>\ntakeover<\/td>\n\n
\n
Same as above but just for pitch faders<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
autoBPMmatch<\/td>\nsmart<\/td>\n\n
\n
matches the BPM when you load a new song if it’s within 10%<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
