Topic: Probably the most overlooked feature of Virtual DJ, with great possibilies... - Page: 1

This part of topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information

Just want to make a little post to new and old users, about the amazing world of VST effects...

There are tons of them, from great free effects to awesome profesionall effetcs (cost some)


The impact of VST's are probably the feature of Virtual DJ most users overlook...

Here is a snapshot of me using the AMAZING effect called "SupaPhaser"... no VDJ effect ever sounded as good as this one! :)

I'm new to this. What does it actually do?

How do you access this? I would love to try it out.

you use them just as you use Virtual DJ effects...

Its a DLL file that goes into the EFFECT folder of Virtual DJ :)

Some VST's have a graphic part included in the DLL files, so it will look as above, if you want it to show, or you can just use the sliders in Virtual DJ, just as any other sound effect.

Well Done DJ-in-Norway, it's about time VST's were brought to the attention of the many and not just the few! :).

VDJ's effects wouldn't be the same without the addition of some good VST effects. You'll find some great flangers, filters and phazers etc.

Some very good free VST plugins:

also check their gold series for an awsome compressor

Then there is the wondermachine which is Spectralive2, it will breath new life into some dull old classic tracks (or your main mix :) )

There's also some very cool VST stackers which will allow you to build a virtual FX rack with multiple VSTs on one signal chain..

DJinNorway,

Can you give us a sample (sound file) of what that effect sounds like? Thanks.

Plugins add a whole new dimension to all your mixes. From loops to Flangers. I personally can't live without them. Thanks Norway for reminding the users of this vital tool that VDJ offers...

Interestingly, msPinky just released the first beta of her new VST plugin for vinyl control using msPinky vinyl to registered msPinky users. Works quite well and makes all the good stuff msPinky offers (the msPinky vinyl has some serious advantages over VDJ vinyl) available to any program with a VST interface..

I will see if I can prepare a sample video somewhere next week to show you guys what it can do..

and here Paul goes again.... ;) loool

First Decks, now Pinky....

Strange how much time and effort you are using to promote other software at this board..... :) Go nuts, prepare your sample video ...hehe...

Well I think msPinky vinyl would be a very cool addition to VirtualDJ.. And don't worry, the sample video would be done using VDJ.. ;)

But seriously though, the quality of the VDJ TCV is one of the reasons why I currently don't use it much. msPinky is way better really.. And right now I can use msPinky TCV with VDJ which makes it a more viable option for me.. So you see I am trying to be constructive here, thanks for trusting me on that..
