    Best Mobile DJ personalties on RUclips. This was a fun episode to watch. We all know, to each their own.
    My 2 cents: VDJ for Mobile, Serato for Scratch, RB for Management.

    VDJ has better stems, it is native to almost every controller on the planet, it is constantly improving and innovating, it has been able to adjust key without the use of things like Mixed In Key, it can be used with VST instruments and audio plugins, and now offers streaming from your own cloud services like Dropbox and Googledrive, it can run more than four decks at once, it can handle the most audio and video formats, and it offers the most customizable mapping of any DJ software on the market. Not to mention it has become just as stable as any of its competitors. In the end, use what you enjoy using and fits your needs. We have reached a point where all the platforms are great and the computers now are light years ahead to be able to run them, unlike how it was a decade ago. For the record, I used to mix video back on VDJ over 10 years ago on a pc that only had 2 GB of ram and a basic dual core processor and VDJ never failed me. Nowadays, the computers are way over qualified to run any of these DJ programs and that’s a beautiful thing.

    I use both Serato and Virtual DJ. Serato for DVS and Virtual DJ for music videos with a controller. Serato is always the best when it comes to DVS. Virtual DJ is way better for music videos. Serato video has not been updated in a very long time.

    Phil Morse is right--the name holds Virtual DJ back more than anything else.
    I know a couple of VDJ jocks. It works fine, and for karaoke and video guys, it's probably the best choice. I got into Serato early, so I'm sticking with it. But there doesn't seem to be anything intrinsically wrong with VDJ *as a program.*

    FYI on the Rev you can spilt hot cues and stems. Also the Rev 5 has stems on the pads sir. You double press slicer and BOOM stems!! Also has dedicated stems separation so you can use the sampler at the same damn time!!!

    The way Serato forces you to do the crates was a deal breaker for me. It is so much simplier in VDJ. What ever you folder structure is on your PC/MAC is what it will be in VDJ.

    Trust me VDj video features are even crazy.

  • @tonymorris9570
    @tonymorris9570 3 месяца назад

    Both software have pros and cons. I actually manipulated the software so I actually have serato and virtual running at the same time.
    So many features you missed with virtual
    Karaoke
    Able to read serato crates
    Installing your music faster once you have to dragon drop to your folder virtual if you have your hard drive organized correctly as soon as you start the program, your music library is already there saves a lot of time
    Virtual, you can stream directly right from the software without third-party software for live streaming
    I’ve had the software for years still never took it out on a live gig, but I do like the software
    And never really took the time to learn it like I should have, but these are some bulletproof features that you missed
    Especially in customizing a lot more within the settings of the program

  • @lk0stov
    @lk0stov 3 месяца назад

    Most important feature vdj is missing is the beat matching display. I can literally count how many times a night I pick up my headphones, using just the fingers on my hands. I have an unhealthy obsession with that feature and is an absolute deal breaker with all other dj softwares. I feel like it's the most understated feature of serato ever.

    I play a lot of Bridgerton style instrumentals during ceremony prelude and actually prefer how serato doesn’t auto mix. If you’ve ever had a live instrumentalist during ceremony there’s a brief pause before a new song. I would like the auto mix feature while I step away for a few minutes to eat.

    Automix is not the best description of this feature unless you just except the default transitions. I edit EVERY transition in Automix in advance. Every track that was given to me in advance is placed in an order that makes sense and then the blend/transition is tweaked to work pretty damn well. And yes, I will even do this for the late night tracks. Now, I may do something different on the fly on occasion.

    You forgot the most important one! Serato can't automatically read the folders on your harddrive, so you have to manually re-create them every time songs are added or reorganized. Big miss, especially if you use your harddrive with multiple software.

    31:00 Serato skin on VDJ isn't about cosmetics, it's about familiarity for those Serato users who are curious and wanna try out VDJ but want to "feel at home", so they can glance at key functions on the screen and expect that function to be there. If that function isn't there, you would PANIC! Serato skin is just a reassurance for Serato savvy users.
