Phew... Kinda worried but what Adam was saying in the video...



From 5:10 - 5:50 - Clearly says "No more Shoutcast, No more Icecast"

Might wanna correct that then ;-)

SO I'm guessing Shoutcast 2.0 support will be in there then...

Cheers,

Roy
 

My choice of words may not have been the best there, but I didn't elaborate. What I was trying to convey was the simplicity of the broadcasting options. My apologies for the confusion.
 

No worries, as long as it's improved that will suit me down to the ground... The fact you said record and broadcast, and knowing Shoutcast is still in there makes me very happy ;-)

Cheers,

Roy
 

Looks nice, just can't wait to see the finished product!
 

@GadgetMan - Don't worry. You stll can broadcast to a normal Sever. What Adam want's to explain is that if you use the direct broadcasting option the Link to your stream is shown at your VDJ Homepage - so no knowledge needed to find the correct link for streaming.

All you need is to point your friends to your VDH Homepage to click the link to your live broadcasting.

Greets, Heiko
 

I disagree with the comment that the timeline is "the big one, what everyone's talking about" - I've really not heard many talking about it with much interest, everyones talking about the new sound engine, improved timecode, new sampler and effects if I'm not mistaken? After this I would go for video features?

Couldn't agree more........ the only reason I see myself using the timeline is for video but then we'll have to wait and see when it comes out. Just wish I had more info on the sampler, even CrossDJ or whatever it's called has a pretty badass sampler.......
 

I know, saw the readup of it on DJWorks a few days ago, for a £40 program it's got a pretty impressive feature list. The whole remix/live production/mad button pushing thing seems to be the current buzz in the DJ scene, let's hope VDJ's new sampler section will be up to the job! One thing I noticed about CrossDJ's sampler is that samples are master tempo'd... nice feature.
 

I would like to know if they are doing a beta test and if so how do I get on the list of testers?
 

 

I got a few comments/suggestions for Virtual DJ if they have not been addressed yet.

1. Sampler:
Ability to tap or restart the effects as the key is depressed. fr example, stuttering the samples

2. Song files:
Cleaning up and or locating moved files. Would be great if re-linking the file to its new locating was made easier. Identifying unable files instead of loading and getting load error.

3. Gain:
Selecting a gain db level and automatically adjusting all songs to play at the same level for those that can. Auto gain not effective as songs have different levels and the level has to be reset

4. Recording:
Being able to burn a cd from a VDJ recorded mix that includes the track file information.

5. Optimization:
A script or button selection to have VDJ perform a setup optimization or system check. A copy of the report file can be forwarded the VDJ for recommended improvements or error identification

6. Video:
Ability to scroll information as text on the screen or over videos.

7. Virtual Folders
Ability to export the entire folder or folders with tracks included. Ability to obtain track listing of Virtual folders. Exporting tracks from Virtual folders omitting the tracks that are not available. See comment number 2.
 

A few of these features exist already.

Use "while_pressed" in your mapping.

If you have not changed you file name and just moved it:
In the config menu Check you drive that contains your library. Do not clean it. It will then keep track of missing files without removing there informarion.
Then re-add the directory to the search database and it will re-associate with those files

Check that your gain settings are auto+remember and rescan your songs. I have no issues with tracks that are at way different recorded levels playing without me riding the fader.

There are a few options for this. Have you checked out SBDJ's 2 different Scroll Text effects?

Actually there is already a dedicated VDJScript action for this -

sampler play_stutter : play the selected sample. if already playing, restart from beginning.

To use on a specific slot use - sampler 1 play_stutter

I miss read what he wanted. I had in my mind to have the sample play as long as the key was pressed.
sampler 1 play_stutter while_pressed

That does give me an idea on how I want to remap mine tho.
 

@onejudge, you really need to get out more often, lol.

If you use Scotts text plugin combined with the free sms plugin from Firetext you can even have your audience texting the screen for free... you'll have texts coming out of your ears... rofl.
 

Do you need a video card or can you pull it of with a shared graphics card? reason I ask is because a friend of mine was asking last night about his old lappy and if it would work or not.
 

I would just like ah drag and drop feature for the sampler and more sample banks without having to down load something.

There are some information already available on VDJ v7 like showing your covers.

You can export your tracks in any of the virtual folder by doing it in FILE OPERATION "Copy to" and "Move to". You can also open the Tracks in their real folder location by "right clicking the tracks and choose "OPEN in FINDER" it helps if in case you want to know in which real directory or folders your tracks resides if you forgot it.

Cesar, I am aware of this procedure. I have multiple subfolders under each Virtual folder. For example;
Pop
New
Old
Latin
Reggae crossover
Soca crossover

I'm interested in transferring the folder with its subfolders all at once instead of individual folders. This way I can have a mirrored backup of my virtual folders to share with the other DJ's on my team.
