User Guide

VirtualDJ is designed to be very simple and easy to use but it is also fully customizable to

match your preferred system performance.

To make changes to VirtualDJ’s configuration, click on the

button. This will bring you

to the “Settings” dialog. The options in the “Settings” dialog can be viewed and edited by

clicking on the corresponding tab on top of the “Settings” window and include:

The “Sound Setup” tab is where the sound card (or device) configuration is set for functioning

with VirtualDJ.

Inputs – If using timecoded vinyl or CDs to control VirtualDJ, select the appropriate input

configuration from this pull-down list. Choices are “NONE”, “Single Timcode” for Single control,

and “Timecodes” for Dual Control. Setting up VirtualDJ for Timecode use is covered in detail

in the “Timecode” section of this guide.

Outputs – Select the preferred output

configuration from this pull-down list. Please

note that, depending on your sound card, some

output options may not be available for use.

Choices are “Single Output”, “Headphones”,

“External Mixer” (2 channel output), or “3-Lines

Mixer” (3 channel output).

Sound card(s) – Select the sound card driver

which you would like to use with the VirtualDJ

software.

Sound card (not shown)– Select the sound card in

this pull-down list.

ASIO Driver – Select the ASIO driver to use.

Ultra-latency ASIO – There is two ASIO engines available for VirtualDJ to provide better

latency support. Checked is the original ASIO engine that is optimized for very low latency

(renamed ultra-latency) and is still considered the default engine. Some computers have

problems with this optimization. Unchecked is the NEW 'safer' performance level ASIO engine

which has less optimization for environments that have difficulty with the Ultra-Latency engine.

Output Channels – Select the routing of outputs on soundcard when the Outputs dropdown is

set to one of the following choices - “Headphones”, “External Mixer” (2 channel output), or “3-

Lines Mixer” (3 channel output).
