Topic: Warp option In Virtual DJ for PC/Mac

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Track warping option for older tracks which were recorded by a human drummer and for tracks which were extracted from a vinyl for PC and Mac version!

Good idea, but only if it sounds good.
 
I suspect it's much like key correction/master tempo - it sounds fine as long as it's not used to extremes. I've corrected old northern soul tracks in Ableton to get the tempo steady, and it worked pretty well...

+1. Great freakin' idea.

I'm friends with Swedish Egil. Egil is a famous LA Radio DJ who pioneered electronica on the radio, here in LA.
Egil told me that Sasha uses Ableton to warp tracks with Ableton.


 
TORQ has this +1
 
Better yet, it would be just be plain super cool is VDJ could just reat the .als files with all the warping info!
 
+1 Having this on VDJ would be super. I have warped and extracted songs from ableton to wav-files, to use them in VDJ.
 
Another handy feature would be to mark positions for songs that start at one tempo and finish at another.
Example off the top of my head Dizzee Rascal - Holiday.

Whats up DJ Ross M, you can do this if you edit the BPM. Right click BPM > Edit Grid > set anchor 1 for inital bpm and set anchor 2 when the other BPM drops.

I'm pretty sure this information is incorrect

Anchor 1 is the first beat you want to measure the bpm from
Anchor 2 is the second, then you adjust the number of beats that occur in between Anchors 1 & 2 to determine the BPM.

As far as I'm aware there is no feature to set 2 different BPM's for one track.
