Topic: Help with Timecodes setting on Pioneer CDJ 1000

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Hi, I have a friend that let me use his Pioneer CDJ1000 CD Players so I can try them in Virtual DJ. I made them work with Virtual Timecode Pro, but I got a couple of issues. First, the pitch sorta kinda move by itself, it doesn't mantain the song mix up, I have to be pushing the CD player to have it mix, second, the cue is not perfect like the midi controller I have which is the BCD 3000 (not the best but it works for me). I'm giving it a try because I'm thinking in buying the machines from my friend. Can anybody help me to set them up so I can made a decision of buying them or not. Thanks for the help.....

First of all set the CDJ's to vinyl mode, this will give a more constant timecode signal to VDJ, and therefore better performance.
And secondly make sure you have 100% timecode signal in the timecode configuration.

You can adjust the pitch sensitivity in the debug view (at timecode settings)
 

Thanks for the response. I have played with the timecode settings for a while. I been moving the pitch sensitivity but it still doesn't set up the cue were it should be. I do it seperate both decks because there settings should be depending of what songs it have on deck. Will it happens because the song has too much space of intro? I haven't checked that. Thanks again for the help.
 

Hey dj-in-norway, I finally made the CDJ 1000 work properly. I heve been playing with them for a couple of days until I felt them working properly. Right know my only concern is that the pitch moves by itself a little bit, but I can work with that. Thanks again for your help. I appreciate it....
 

Hi am using my pioneers (cdj-1000) with VDJ and when I put in the timecode cd I am only getting 1% to 3% quailty on the timecode config. I burned the timecode using itunes and onto a normal cd???? Any one know what to do??????
