Tips And Suggestions

1. Use an MP3 converter to convert other media files into MP3 format. While “Virtual DJ” can play other music files, MP3 files are the most compatible.
2. Avoid playing the song while it is loading. For best sound quality, let it fully load before pressing “Play.”
3. When recording your mixes, try saving the file to an external hard drive or flash drive.
4. “Virtual DJ” can stall or halt when playing non-MP3 files.
5. If the cross fader gets stuck, it will produce an undesirable sound. Use your mouse to move the fader right or left. This will restore proper sound functionality. Always let each track fully load before commencing.
6. Saved mixes or sounds take up a lot of memory. Avoid saving these files to your desktop. It is best to save them to a hard or flash drive with a lot of memory.
