VDJ started from humble beginnings as software that DJs laughed at. Then version 7 was stable enough to be used in real world DJing stuations. Then version 2020 made it a serious competitor. Now With this STEMS feature VDJ has to be at the top at least for the time being
Again VDJ is knocking it out of the park!! Crazy for live remixing tracks and performance!! Been a VDJ user since day 1 ( over a decade ago) and they keep proving me why I should not leave them!
We have to say we have been addicted to using stems in VirtualDJ 2021 that we really cant stop playing music right now.. This is a evolution of DJing!!
Thank you for this. I realize this video is 3 years old and I’ve just started on Virtual DJ about a month ago. I used to spin back in the late 70’s through mid 80’s in nightclubs on LI.
Virtual DJ is the most stable and advanced DJ software. Others prefer the other DJ software because of marketing -> Pioneer or Serato Name..... the don't look at features but just want to have the logo "Serato" and "Pioneer" at gig. lol. But VirtualDj is the best. (But the name Virtual is not good :) ) they have to change the name or Pioneer have to buy VirtualDJ and not use Juced team developpers... Denon can buy VirtualDj too..... it would be great
BAM!!! Two iterations of groundbreaking tech in the DJing industry VDJ and DJAY Pro AI Meanwhile.............................Serato users out there still griping about SYNC
I have both software SDJ pro and VDJ pro Vdj is miles ahead more advance than SDJ BUT I am an old skool DJ so I prefer SDJ to dj with because they far behind in development ( in my opinion ) and every thing is basic on my Mc 7000 VDJ is to busy for me to many things happening . If software were vehicle Sdj would be the classic car and Vdj the latest version (
Paolo Concina I’m the same ... serato from the beginning. Just got a pioneer xp2 controller ... changed everything .. loaded up Rekordbox which is free with xp2 and haven’t turned back as can still use dvs via the sl3. Just needed to added an audio interface with 4 outputs to enable records to be played alongside the digital songs.
VDJ is always on the cutting edge, since 2005! The best dj platform. I also like serato, but its such a drag when i'm travelling to always have to figure out if my serato will work wth whatever set-up is at the club. VDJ works with EVERYTHING. This STEM feature is all included, when Serato comes out whit it , you know its gonna be as an extra $$ plug-in.
This is fckn dope. Haven't used VDJ in like 10 years but this is something interesting. Def gonna try this out. Its not perfect but it will get better.
@@digitaldjtips I had a pretty good work shop with the crew, most tracks pre 90's without vocal feature just instrumental isn't great quality as expected due to early release but new digital tracks work very well. Can't wait to see next couple of versions. loving it!!! Great JOB
Serato user here..... man..... thats steppin up the game with those features. More tools to remix and create a whole new song in many ways.. Karaoke on the fly.. Im impressed 👏 salute to you and your team...definitely settin the bar high..
First Djay, Now Virtual DJ, waiting for the big boys Rekordbox and Serato to do it, I tried it on my iPad Pro yesterday and it is unbelievable how easy it is to mix with it.
I've been using vdj for some time now, first started using it ten years ago, I love this new stems feature, especially when live mixing online, I find that using the eq for the stems works great especially to stop the underwater effect about 90% of the time. I can't wait to see what VDJ has in store for us next.:)
I just started using VDJ with my Numark Mixstream Pro and it works so well, I’m just glad I can do most things with both of them either Mac or Standalone…this helped me a lot, thank you!!!
VDJ was never looked at as the main player with rekordbox and serato arnd and anyone using VDJ was considered amateur, glad i stayed on and did not move to anything else coz these guys really work hard at hearing out grievances and implementing it without a fuss. Way to go #VirtualDj
Great feature. I often do live act and sing during a song. Now I can easily cut a vocal and sing it by myself. Also mashups will be much easier to do and generally great innovation. I see that VDJ can compete with Serato or Rekord Box now without any hung-up. I use VDJ for over 10 years and I'm really proud that this program still develop and gives new innovative features.
@@digitaldjtips took me about 2 weeks to really dig into the beat matching by ear and just close my eyes didn't use the program to much to watch my bars
I think its interesting that Algoriddim claims to need the ARM processors from the iPad/iPhone to make this AI technology work, meanwhile 2 days later VDJ comes op with a computer based version of this feature which sounds the same with a normal processor. This being said I’m very happy that VDJ came up with this, because now the other players like Denon, serato and rekordbox know its possible to put this in standalone units like the Prime 4, which means its not gonna take long before we will be able to use this in live sets at clubs. As always, great video and thanks for your info Phill
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS . . . This could take DJ'ing to a completely different level . . . I pray that Recordbox will have this feature on offer very soon? Am surprised they didn't come up with it first. PLEASE PIONEER . . . MAKE IT HAPPEN...THANKS
Well I've just had a play with Stems and it brought goose bumps out my hairy arms..... This feature is proper sick :) People will have to pay attention to this.... Excellent stuff!
Great feature! Traktor/NI ´s idea years ago was always addicted to existing stems - which never have been available on interesting/well known tracks of the past 30 years. This changes the game completely! Now I can do stems on the fly to my favorite tracks the crowd recognizes. Hope Serato follows...
Pioneer already has vocal recognition in RB DJ so it can't be that far off the algorithm the other uses. If I remember right, they all require a certain function called AVX built in to the CPU to work. In short, AVX were introduced in 2011 and most Intel i-series cpu's and the AMD Bulldozer and later series have this, but if you want to be sure, check the specs of your specifik CPU. Also, the use of AVX instructions can cause the cpu to run hotter than usual and cause it to throttle or limit the boost clock. If your CPU tends to run hot this is something to be aware of.
@@P4boot I do believe it will get much better though, what with all the advances in AI these last years! I bet we can't tell the difference between actual stems and generated stems in like 2 years from now
I used vdj a lot on my laptop and recently got a ddj400 but don't like Rekordbox. I used the Vdj trial and have been debating getting the licence for a few weeks now..Debate over. Here Vdj,take my cash 💸.
Trust me. The best investment. I used to download. Free crack version then. I just bought it out right i have a ddj sb3. And a ddj 800 so I have all the softwares but. I like that I could go to any controller and play
Amazing. Been doing this with Ableton racks I built myself for live isolation, but this is so much more. I like the garbled sound of the background with the acapella because I find it recognizable to myself and possibly the general audience too as an indication of some kind of isolation being done, which live is cool so they might be tipped off that something cool is happening.
Most wicked. NI Traktor must be kicking itself for not allowing their stems on all manufacturers controller. I now see the need for the sub controllers like DDJ-SP1 to come back in use!
Every DJ since Thomas Edison has thought about this! Even considering the limitations and the issues with audio quality (if this VDJ stems "sound" was released as new effect, we might like it ;-)!) - this is a serious game changer. Kudos to VDJ.

It's a solid bit of VDJ, we've been fans for a long time :)
Yes.
Sounds like crap
@@JohnEnergy2012 Absoultely agree!
the donald trump of dj software
Again VDJ is knocking it out of the park!! Crazy for live remixing tracks and performance!! Been a VDJ user since day 1 ( over a decade ago) and they keep proving me why I should not leave them!
Facts man
Yep, awesome stuff from VDJ!
Yeah VDJ is definitely a go to especially for free …
I started using it when it was still called atomixmp3
This is a real game-changer! I've been messing with it all day yesterday.
Nice one, it's a lot of fun to play around with
How to get it
Can it be used with any controller
Is the quality in the music still there when you take out certain instruments or the acapella itself?
@@briandowdelljr.6928 In some tracks, it's not the best but it still sounds ok I guess. Like if you make a song acapella it sounds DIY.
VDJ has always been my preferred software. Their mapping is amazing and now with stems feature it is even more amazing. Good job VDJ.
It's awesome, glad you're enjoying it!
@@digitaldjtips One more question. I plan to upgrade to Windows 11. The question is will Virtual DJ work with Windows 11?
We have to say we have been addicted to using stems in VirtualDJ 2021 that we really cant stop playing music right now..
This is a evolution of DJing!!
It's so much fun isn't it? 😄
Virtual DJ as always head and shoulders above the competition always innovating
They do great work
When I bought the lifetime licence, paying £300 made me cry - now I realise that it was money well spent! This feature changes the game completely!
We bought ours in 2004, lol. :)
nice one Phil ... everything worth mentioning in almost 9 min ... well done
Thanks for watching Robert
Thank you for this. I realize this video is 3 years old and I’ve just started on Virtual DJ about a month ago. I used to spin back in the late 70’s through mid 80’s in nightclubs on LI.
The stems have got even better since then
The best news I've seen in 2020....pure genius
Agreed!
VDJ always been ahead of the game
Definitely, though in this case they were pipped to the post by Algoriddim!
Digital DJ Tips This was already possible in VDJ2020, they weren’t beaten to the punch.
How so? Real time stem separation is new to 2021- was there something similar previously?
Digital DJ Tips It was possible via drag and drop VSDs apparently, not done it myself, so can’t confirm.
Virtual DJ is the most stable and advanced DJ software. Others prefer the other DJ software because of marketing -> Pioneer or Serato Name..... the don't look at features but just want to have the logo "Serato" and "Pioneer" at gig. lol.

Makes me want to get VDJ more now.
Same here. Seriously thinking about buying an Infinity account now.
It's definitely worth checking out :)
This is what a lot of people are saying. Come on over and join us!
What have you been using before???
@bdub2868 only new version. Go get it
BAM!!! Two iterations of groundbreaking tech in the DJing industry VDJ and DJAY Pro AI

Kept us busy the last couple of days, that's for sure :)
Uggg sync button

Woah! WHAT? Truly a game changer 🔥
I know right!
💯 True that!
I can't remember the last time I had my mind blown. Probably when I first saw "content aware fill" in Photoshop. This is is literally amazing.
Nice one John, I know what you mean!
This is total flames glad I had that infinity licence
Nice, such a great deal isn't it?
@@digitaldjtips That's a big yes
I've been searching for these vocal drops for a very long time and this whole time it was right in front of me.Thank you very much for this video😂🔥🤟
No problem!
I so been wanted my EQ to do this. The possibility of mixing more just became more exiting. Wooohhhh!!!
Yep, loads of fun
Virtual DJ is winning! I love the stems!!!
They're doing a great job :)
It’s crazy because years ago in like high school I used virtual dj just to mess around with music and look how it evolved over time , So Good! 👍🏾
Indeed!
Welcome addition in the DJing scene.
Agreed!

And this is why I've been using VDJ all these years 👌🔥 this is huge 🙌
It's awesome for sure
This is definitely a different way of VDJ mixing!!! Totally AWESOME!!
Completely agree, so much fun
I am a Serato and Rekordbox user. Haven't used Virual DJ, this is the next step were the possibilities are endless wow
It's definitely worth a try!
I bought the Pro Infinity licence today and it’s absolutely amazing.
Nice one Carlos!
What is the pro infinity licence Carlos?
And new innovation from Pioneer DJ is monthly subscription...
Certainly a controversial choice...
Looks like Virtual DJ just changed the game!! Nice!!
Awesome stuff :)
VDJ has updated so many times since this Video was made. time to do an update version with the enhances
Thanks Paul, perhaps we will
Virtual DJ has always been the under dog good thing I been loyal since day one when it first came out 😉
They do awesome work
This is fckn dope. Haven't used VDJ in like 10 years but this is something interesting. Def gonna try this out. Its not perfect but it will get better.
You should Marco, it's a load of fun to play around with
Damn, the AI technology is completely changing the dynamics of DJing !
Cool to see
Yes it is! But there's still a lot of DJ's out there still using the sync button and don't know how to beat match.
I've only updated this last week and I've made complete brand new tracks and remixes
Very cool!
have always believed VDJ was coming up with something big... Never gave up!!!
Yep they're pretty consistent!
WOW i would have had a field day with this back in the day, Atomix has come a very long way.
Awesome isn't it? We feel the same way RE wishing we had this 20 years ago lol
Amazing - this is a huge game changer for some...
Agreed, a lot of fun to play with and opens a lot of doors creatively!
Mr Slipmatt, mad seeing you here, a real legend here folks !!
Excited! Finally I can create instrumentals from my favs.

We do not accept sponsorship or advertising from anyone
@@digitaldjtips I respect that ✊
Another one with Live Stems ? This is all exciting stuff. I hope Serato step up to the plate.
Yes, two at once - been keeping us busy here!

This is going to become a new standard. Wow.
Pretty cool isn't it?
Being using Vdj for years now! Nice to see software development to help us DJ's with more options, Thanks for sharing!
Agreed, cool to see
Now for sure I will also buy Vdj 2021
Awesome!
AWESOME! UNBELIEVABLE! THANK YOU! 🤘
No problem!
Need immediate update to Virtual DJ Made Easy course!!
Yes, you're right!
I am installing this just to stem my most commonly used tracks for use... its very VERY cool!
Awesome! It's very useful
I'm doing all sorts of remixes and blends now.
Awesome :)

Lots of people saying the same thing...
Game changer
Agreed!
That smile on your face after you did the bass transition says it all
So much fun!
this is a gamechanger
Agreed, a load of fun either way
VDJ is always on top this is juicy Phil.
Yeah this is an awesome feature
Always preferred VDJ.. all day errday! HUGE update! Well done Virtual DJ !🙌 #GameChanger
It's awesome :)
I think controllers will be redesigned for this tech. Stem Eq is amazing.
Would be cool!
Bass - "So you won't hear that if you're listening on a phone." :D Brilliant and well said!
Thanks for watching Wayne 😄
I've just updated virtual DJ to try this and ok it's not perfect but OMG! this is a real game-changer! Well done Virtual DJ :)
Our thoughts exactly pretty much 😊
Well I've just had a play with Stems and it brought goose bumps out my hairy arms..... This feature is proper sick :)
People will have to pay attention to this.... Excellent stuff!
Glad to hear it Tony, it's an awesome feature
This is a whole new level of WOW!!.........Everyone slags off VDJ.... I refuse to use anything else... this is totally EPIC
Not everyone, it's an incredibly popular bit of software :)
so to be fair, they had this feature in earlier versions of the software back in the day, but it's really useful now with the way it's integrated.
Not real time though right?
Tried it out and it's fantastic!
Nice one Manfred
This is Awesome. It's a nice feature.
Agreed!
This is what I been waiting for
Cool feature isn't it?
I love it n it’s look like my set is going to be more powerful then ever since I’m the only powerful DJ on earth 🌍
Such a cool feature!
Awwww... that’s adorable! Did your mommy tell you that ??!!😂only powerful dj on earth.. yet I’ve never heard of you🤷🏻♂️
Love your confidence lol
Great feature! Traktor/NI ´s idea years ago was always addicted to existing stems - which never have been available on interesting/well known tracks of the past 30 years. This changes the game completely! Now I can do stems on the fly to my favorite tracks the crowd recognizes. Hope Serato follows...
Yeah this is the twist that makes them accessible to the average DJ who doesn't want to have to go hunting them down
Pioneer already has vocal recognition in RB DJ so it can't be that far off the algorithm the other uses.

Thanks! :)
I'm VDJ and Serato user but I always have said that VDJ little by little will be the leader on Djing software technology. Atomix Congrats!!!!
Yep they're doing great work
Can't wait to make use of this feature but I cannot get Beatport Link working in 2021.
That'll be awesome when it's all working as it should!
Got the Dicer mapped today and it works perfectly 🙌🙌
Awesome, good thinking
wow longtime Traktor user but this is damn appealing
I know right! Fun stuff
Thank goodness for this video, I really couldn't figure it out.
Awesome, glad we could help
No one dj app can do that. That features is blowing my mind
Djay does it
I remember vdj back in like early mid 2000s. Now its really real.
They've come a long way :)
ive tested it, and it really rock, so much for copyright now hahaha
there is a bleed % in the settings helps a little until they fine tune it ... I'm having a blast with it
Nice one!
How about the 'underwater' effect? Or do my ear canals need some cleaning?
It's not perfect for sure
It can be seen /heard as its own effect! 😉😉. Honestly I don't think it'll get much better than this. It's already a feat in technology as it is.
It sounds weird when there is just 1 song playing but when you have 2 it sounds just fine.
The isolation will never be perfect based on mastering of tracks but the vocal extracts over loops and instrumentals are now easier than ever...
@@P4boot I do believe it will get much better though, what with all the advances in AI these last years! I bet we can't tell the difference between actual stems and generated stems in like 2 years from now

Most wicked. NI Traktor must be kicking itself for not allowing their stems on all manufacturers controller. I now see the need for the sub controllers like DDJ-SP1 to come back in use!
Stems was open source and was allowed on all controllers, its downfall was that producers and labels didn’t want to share their tracks in that format.
Serato users have just gone in the bathroom and throwing air punches
Why would anybody lock themselves up using only one program. I see these programs as tools. There's no need to use any of them religiously.
Lol me included! - Scott
i use Virtual DJ and Serato
I use Serato and I have complete faith that the good people at Serato will have this feature implemented by 2030, 2035 at the latest.
