Upgrading to the PRO-version
After a while using Virtual-DJ you will learn about the various
interesting features inside the PRO-version of the program. As a user
of the LE-version you can try the PRO-version for free during 20days,
if you like it (we are sure you will ) you can buy the upgrade at a
discount price. Check the config menu for more information.
CONFIGURING VIRTUAL-DJ
Audio Routing:
The audio routing (telling which soundcard should take care of which signals) in Virtual-DJ depends on the
configurations you have choosen. Below we guide you through the different setups for the different
configurations.
First click on the "config" button at the top side of the Virtual DJ-Software and select the "Sound Set
Configuration1 - Simple connection to a Desktop PC (or laptop) with an internal 4CH soundcard
The master output is sent to the front speaker outputs and the PFL-signal (headphones) is sent to the rear
speaker outputs of your internal soundcard.
Attention: In some cases you will notice that the master and
headphone signals are not properly routed so the signals are mixed
in a bizarre way. In those cases please check if the 4channel
soundcard is configured in quadraphonic mode. (mostly it is
configured in surround mode, which is NOT OK!)
Configuration2 - Simple connection to a laptop with an internal 2CH soundcard
The master output sent in stereo to the internal 2ch soundcard, the PFL-signal (headphones) cannot be
used.

Configuration3 - Simple connection to a laptop with an internal 2CH soundcard
The master output is sent in mono to the left side of the internal 2ch soundcard, the PFL-signal
(headphones) is sent in mono to the right side of the internal 2ch soundcard. Consider not using this
configuration since all music will be played in mono.
Configuration4 - Connection to a laptop with an internal 2CH soundcard + external 2CH soundcard
u
p" tab.
The master output sent in stereo to the external 2ch soundcard, the PFL-signal (headphones) is sent to the
internal 2ch of your laptop.
Configuration5 - Connection to a laptop with an internal 2CH soundcard + external 4CH soundcard
The internal soundcard of your computer is not used, instead all signals are routed to the external 4ch
soundcard. Such external 4ch soundcards usually have a much better quality than the internal soundcards.
ASIO-drivers:
if you absolutely want to have extremely low latency (delay), you can also experiment with ASIO-drivers if
you like: in that case you can select "ASIO-
driver" for the soundcard. Since this is out of
the scope of this manual, we will not explain
the configuration of the ASIO-drivers here.
USING OTHER DJ-SOFTWARE
Since this controller is designed as a MIDI-compatible device, you can use it to control any Midi DJ-software.
Of course this means that you will need special MIDI-mapping files for these products. Please check our
website (www.jbsystems.be): we will provide MIDI-mapping files for some other DJ-software free of charge.
