in other words both vdj and serato have to be open at the same time

hehe, yes, point taken ;) hehe

and it turned out to be more work on the "open source" aproach that VDJ 5 has to timecode, where any timecode can be used with vdj.
The plugin is still in beta testings, and the developer of it, is working his best to make it perfect...

I cant say when that will be, but crossing my fingers that its sooner than later ;) no timer.. . lol

i must say - recently one of my vinyls was melted by on stage lighting, and at the last minute, they managed to get a ssl vinyl to replace it. it worked fine (no plug in) - in fact it was considerably better, and far more responsive than the vdj vinyl.

Are you sure that was considerably better ? Because if it's true i'll will ask to my boss to buy vdj pro.(Serato doesn't work fine under Windows Vista, lots of crashes)

Ok, so next month I'll be spinning with a DJ running Serato. At that point I should have my Virtual Vinyl up and running with the full version of Cue as opposed to the Cue LE version I'm currently using.

I know for a fact the SL1 sound card works with VDJ but my question is this:

How well does it work and who's vinyl do I have to use to control Cue? Virtual Vinyl or Serato Vinyl??

You use the Timecoded cds for the same brand software you use only..... Virtual dj doesnt support Serato timecodes to work with it or Cue..
If you use Cue, then you use cue time codes...

An important question for you.. Are you going to be using turntables or Cd ? or both..

Sorry it has taken me forever to post a reply to this post.

Anyway.....this would be done on turntables.

I tried to get Virtual DJ and the SL-1 Box to talk to each other last night. I installed the SL-1 driver on my PC and used that. I have the CDJ1000 and was able to get some of the functions to work but not all of them. (ex. fast forward, que, loop, and master tempo wouldn't work) I believe there may be something I'm doing wrong with the timecode configuration but I'm not sure. Has anyone gotten this to work with all of the CDJ1000 functions and if so can you tell me what the proper audio configuration should be?

Testing out Serato Vinyls with box and VDJ interface, but it seems that if i use beatmatch or cue jumps, after awhile, the TC suddenly stops working, even though the vinyl is still in the middle of the track and making noise... just stops responding to it. Nothing I do (stopping, starting track, turning off TC and back on, cue point, stopping deck and playing track, unloading, reloading and needle dropping) gets any response. The only workaround I found is to exit/relaunch VDJ... problem is, it happens within about 30 mins of playing! Boss says I gotta use the interface for the club, I'd like to use VDJ cause it rocks, and beats Serato hands down for user interface. Oh, it does this with Serato CDs too, although with the SSL-1 and VDJ timecode, seems ok, and stable. Oh, and with Serato vinyl especially, seems a bit.... choppy. I noticed the VDJ default plug-in setting for timecodes, anything else i can stick in there? Any help would be appreciated, Serato is a pain... thanks, Fresh
