Virtual DJ Studio 3.4 - User Guide and FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions - Virtual DJ Studio

1. Full Karaoke Support!
   Imagine that you are hosting a Karoke gig. Imagine that you have the next five songs ready to go, each in its own player. Imagine that someone decides they want to sing. Imagine that you pull up their song in seconds, and they are able to sing right now. Imagine that the Karaoke lyrics are displayed on top of a custom background image of your choice (perhaps your logo, or a holiday-inspired image), instead of the plain-old solid color you're used to. Imagine that you are able to adjust the key, pitch, and tempo for the user, and even correct the sync if a scratched CD is used.
   The days of hunting down a Karaoke CD, finding the right track, and having only one or two singers queue'd up are gone! With a Laptop or Desktop/Tower PC, a large hard disk (external USB or internal), and a decent video card (one offering S-Video or TV output), you can replace not only your CD players; you can eliminate the need for cases of CDs, and take up less space than you ever imagined!
   Be sure to read through our new Karaoke Tutorial for detailed information on how to get the most out of Virtual DJ Studio's exclusive Karaoke features.
   A small table with your computer and a mixer is all that is needed. You can pull up music quickly, and mix it professionally; you can have customers' Karaoke songs ready far in advance; most importantly, you can spend less time hunting down CDs, and more time being personable with your customers. Pulling up a song request or Karaoke title has never been easier or faster. Customers will notice this, and will subconciously see you as a better DJ than those still using CDs -- especially with Karaoke, where customers are used to waiting 10 minutes for the DJ to locate and queue up their song.
   VDJ gives you all of this and much more. You can queue up singers with the Singers List window, along with the name of each singer; this makes it much easier to determine who's up next, and eliminates the problem of remembering customers' names. VDJ will even display the next 10 singers (and the songs they plan to sing) on the Television screen during breaks. No more digging through request slips to figure out who's up next. No more re-ordering slips when a singer isn't ready yet.
   Custom background images is a unique feature: no other Karaoke program give you this much control. Lyrics are displayed on top of any JPG, GIF, BMP or PNG image you like. You can even have VDJ automatically darken the image when lyrics are being displayed, for easy readability. The image fades down to 33% brightness when a Karaoke file is being played, and fades back up to 100% when playback is stopped. All of these features can be changed during use, without interrupting playback at all.
   When using ZIP or KZ files, you can even include a custom background image to be displayed for specific Karaoke files (think Christmas songs, Irish (St. Patty's Day) music, etc).
   
   
2. Supported Karaoke Formats
   You can either play an MP3 that has a corresponding .CDG file, or you can play directly from a ZIP file. VDJ does this directly, with no need to create temporary files (like most other programs do). VDJ is the only Karaoke system that lets you seek while directly playing a ZIP or MP3 file, without ever losing sync! ZIP files are handled the same as any other file format, with no slowness or adverse behavior, since VDJ uncompresses ZIP files internally, on an as-needed basis.
   
   
3. Easy to Use
   Don't be intimidated by the number of buttons you see in the picture. If you have a knack for audio equipment, you will quickly pick up on VDJs use. VDJ comes with a complete Help file, including a Getting Started guide that will have you mixing MP3s in no time!
