Virtual DJ

Have you ever dreamed of being a DJ and you could not afford real decks and mixers?  Have you ever dreamed of being a DJ but just couldn’t figure out how to start or what to do? Well Virtual DJ is a perfect way to start.

I know so many people who use this software including myself and it’s so easy to start off with and use when you don’t have anything else. It does all the great things that a DJ will need in a program and no one will ever know. 

Virtual DJ is software of a virtual disc jockey system and it basically gives you a real setup on your computer. DJs use this software at gigs, clubs, parties, and even events. Some major DJ equipment brands like Numark have produced budget equipment for this software. Virtual DJ is the successor of Atomix MP3 which was released in Mid-September 2000, and then the first version of Virtual DJ was released in July 2003. 

There are various types of the software part of Virtual DJ Home which is sold at any DJ and music shops.  Eventually a free version was released called Virtual DJ Broadcaster which was available both online and in store. The other types of versions include Virtual DJ Pro Full which is only available online and Virtual DJ Limited Edition which is only available with selected Midi Controllers.

The prices vary from being able to download a demo online for free, $49.00 for Virtual DJ Broadcaster, $99.00 for Virtual DJ Pro Basic and $299.00 for Virtual DJ Pro Full.

The Software’s run on both Mac and PC unlike some program which only allows you to install on one system. The software can also accept alternate midi controllers like CDJS in the program as it basically allows you to mix songs like a DJ and it also has effects like a mixer for e.g. Wah Wah, double beat and slow drops. It has a sync button which syncs the audio clips together and keeps your mixes intact which is especially useful for DJs who may use different equipment and move around a lot. 

Virtual DJ is an intermediate software but its rewarding in the simplicity and useful effects throughout the software. It is an ideal product for home users and local club DJs and something that I would definitely recommend. It is a perfect starting point for those who are looking to get a feel of what software suits them and before they move onto more advanced systems.
