Topic: Virtual DJ Pro Version 8 Realease Date Anybody?

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

I am sorry, if this was answered before, but can smdb please inform me of a planned release date of VDJ 8?
Version 8 has been in the works for some time now. What are the main issues of the delayed release?

Thanks,
dj Pasha

Please see other threads on the subject, it will drop when everyone is least expecting it.... then it will be party time!
 
I get the feeling that they decided to pull out all the stops with this one, so it's going to take awhile. It was available for demo recently, and I imagine it's being tested and tweaked as I type this. I bet we see it sometime this month, or at least by the end of the year. If there is an expected release date, nobody that knows will talk about it.
 
version 8 is a myth.
 
Vapourware ;)
 
Yeah, probably not long in placing the same answer as always, "will when ready" ... this response is used when there are no good arguments ...

Is totally vapourware...
 
Why are you asking about Ver 8 when you know they will not tell you. The current version still allows you to DJ.
 
I've heard from a very credible source that it will be released on 29th February 2014.

Just waiting for a of subject post about something
that will not be moderated and will either be swamped with of subject questions and become
irrelevant to the tread topic and slowly die .... or be locked.
 
Having been through a similar situation with both PCDJ and Alcatech BPM studio I thought this can't happen again...... but here we are.

Promises, teasers and public demos mean nothing until I can use the product myself.

Yes, for the most part 7.4 is great however other products have moved on and in some areas offer more. The money I paid for VDJ was worth it at the time but things change.

The lack of Information or feedback speaks volumes.

I never used to feel VDJ was behind other software, it always seemed cutting edge, but that has sadly been lost over the last couple of years. Sad to see this happen but that's life!
 
I agree with colleague DJs here. Many teasers and high expectations, big promises of many new functions without any possible relase date is rather annoying. And makes us look around for newer, better DJ software.
Even after i have paid over $300 for VDJ.

I personally would be content with possible release date at least announced officially.
For now.
 
Never really messed with serato, but im starting to like it. I've been using vdj since 4.3 and hooked tons of other djs on it too. I never thought twice about switching, but the competition is starting to look better every day. I hope vdj 8 drops soon, I dont think there will be any reason to switch once it does. Until then I keep finding my self opening up the competitions software every time I want to practice won't be long before I'm doing gigs with it instead of vdj. Vdj still has some serious advantages over the competition. Specifically SBDJs freestyler plugin and the way the video end works. Vdj is still much more flexible.
 
This topic has been asked many times already - why not use the forum search ;)
As said before, VirtualDJ 8 will of course be released as soon as its ready - not a minute before or later ;)

Nagging about release date, "vaporware" and the same extreme few guys "complaining" over & over wont make us rush out a product before its fully ready ;) of course not ...

Rest of us hare super happy with v7, that works great! ;)
VDJ has millions of users, using v7 right now, and being happy dudes, enjoying their music ;)
0,000001 % users not being able to wait for a free great new version, is not gonna make us rush out an unfinished product ;)

And the extra time taken to develop VDJ 8 is done to benefit you all making a truly awesome new flagship product, is all given you as a free upgrade. Its not like anyone here has bought VDJ8 and not got it - instead (unlike most other software) - you get it for FREE - when its ready and finished ;)

Its already been demo'ed at tradeshows, people have had their hands on and been impressed, had djs using it live at stage etc etc.. So its definitively not some 'vaporware' or what ever else the extreme few negative seems to re post at any chance .. . Says more about you - than product development (not uncommon, rather opposite - its common that release dates gets pushed as new features gets added , or bugs ironed out etc - goes for Microsoft, Apple or any software house.. )

Instead since V7 is working fine, we're using time to make sure v8 is fine polished, bug free, fast performance, re-coded at every part, to work awesome ;) To benefit you all ... . all for free ;)

So go mix some music instead, have fun with VDJ 7 - enjoy a sunny day, watch the girls, or do something positive instead ;)

And regardling release dates, we dont announce that - cause its no excact science - its rather based on common sense - its released when its fully ready - time taken to do that, its noones guess. It takes the time it takes ;) Its that simple ...
