话题: Compressor/limiter - Page: 1

由于该帖子的部分内容已年深日久，可能包含陈旧过时或描述错误的信息。

Virtualdj lacks a compressor/limiter that can be applied on the master output.

I'm lazy and do no longer want to carry an external compressor/limiter rack to every gig. :)

I agree it would be nice to have. However, all the "effects" I've ever seen implemented on Virtual DJ or Cue are done as plugins and show on the Effects tab. That means you would need to turn on the effect (in this case, the compression) on each deck separately to emulate it as coming from the "master" output. I actually do that now with a free plugin called Blockfish
http://www.digitalfishphones.com/main.php?item=2&subItem=5

Just download the files and do the following:

1. Place these two files:

BLOCKFISH.dll
BLOCKFISH.ini

into this directory:

Windows VISTA PCs
C:\Users\xxxxx\Documents\Numark Cue\Plugins\SoundEffect

Windows XP PCs
C:\Documents and Settings\xxxxxx\My Documents\Numark Cue\Plugins\SoundEffect

NOTE: “xxxxx” represents your computer logon “name”.

2. Restart Cue.

3. Click on the Effects tab in the center, and you will see a new Sound Effect called BLOCKFISH.

However still running two compressors/limiters (one for each deck) does not bring the same result as running one compressor/limiter on the master output... Each channel's volume (even if it's compressed) gets added with other channel's volume resulting in a "double" volume during each mix, something that a "master" compressor would NOT allow...

Generally (for various reasons) the best solution would be to enable a "Master Section" effects slot the same way they exist for players.... It would be nice to use a High Quality VST EQ on your master output for instance, or a Multiband Compressor... :)

Whilst I've never used it and I'm not sure of it's exact function, the SDK does seem to allow for this to some degree (VDJPLUGINFLAG_PROCESSMASTER). Unfortunately this is of no use with VST plugins, so the ability to allow a VST to affect the master output would be a good thing IMHO :)

Hey Guys

Two additional ways to accomplish this task.

1. Some external sound cards gives you that ability and more, like the one I have which is the EMU-1616m it can use any type VST.
2. I also have the M-Audio NRV 10 Mixer with fireWire VST for Instruments Or Vocal to patch in effects on the fly with any channel.

If you are using it for gigs, just buy an external compressor. Around 20 at any guitar store. You'll probably need some additional audio cable converters/chords to attach it to your gear though. eg 1/8 to 1/4 jack converter. Or you could just get an external midi controller to have better control over the levels, and just be your own compressor by making sure you don't have both bass on max.

He said he no longer wanted to carry additional stuff around with him.

I know in other software you can just go into config and set the master DB, how it should be really if this were to be a feature.

BPM Studio has a compressor limiter module and it's excellent. I have only used it when feeding direct to amps but it does the job perfectly.

+1 vote from me on this...

It has been requested several times to get the "effects" allowed to control either channel X or master with usage of VST plugins for comp./limiters etc.

Unfortunately i haven't received feedback on this -eventhough asked for a couple of times.

But maybe with their newer release (VDJ7) and their advanced sound setup parts, it could be possible to get this feature.

Until its just using your mastering VSTs per channel :-/

I also would love to have a peak limiter or compressor feature for the master output channels. Some other people suggest using an external compressor but that doesn't do anything for you if you use the build in shoutcast broadcasting or record to disk options. Many other DJ software applications already have this feature (example: Native Instruments Traktor). I wouldn't think it would be too hard to either implement a master peak limiter or at least allow a master channel effects panel.

Does VDJ support "rewire" on the output?

thanks,
