VirtualDJ 5 DJC Edition
In the VirtualDJ waveform window, the start of each beat is marked with a small
square below the waveform, so:
- if the squares of both music tracks overlap, the music tracks are
synchronized,
- if the squares of both music tracks don't overlap, the music tracks are not
synchronized.
d) Jog wheels
If you play a music file loaded on a deck, you have 2 action modes for the jog
wheels:
- Fine Tuning mode: you can speed up or slow down music playback
temporarily by turning the jog wheels, as you would do with the Pitch Bend
- or Pitch Bend + buttons. The action is the same as if you were
accelerating or slowing down a record on a vinyl turntable by putting your
fingers on the edge of the record or giving it a little push
- Scratch mode: if the Scratch button is lit up (the button is located over the
Up button on your DJ controller), then each time you move a jog wheel, you
lock playback of your music track to the moves of the jog wheel, so that if
you turn the jog wheel counterclockwise, you play the music track
backward, and if you turn the jog wheel clockwise, you play the music
forward, at the speed of the jog wheel's movement. This scratch mode
produces the same action on the music file as if you were placing your
hand on a vinyl record and moving it back and forth.
