@fremdj Your blog didn't helped me more, thanks anyway.
I tried to setup VDJ and BCD to a stronger PC, and i had absolutely no problems with audio or anything else. Meaning that Behringer should change the minimum requirements to a quite stronger combination.
I am about to make my PC stronger soon but i had no problems so far with Hercules VDJ setup. Anyway ASIO drivers are not stable, i prefer to use WDM.
Is there someone who has played for hours with no problems on a VDJ BCD ASIO system ?

fremdj. What is your PC setup? I tried into a Celeron 2.4Ghz and it was almost dead. I tried into a P43,2Ghz and it was flying. That was my problem, i had a weak system. I am about to change that soon. Thanks anyway.

But what is exactly your problem?, may be is the way you run de programs, firts at all plug the BCD into your computer an turn it on, after that restart your pc (keep the bcd on) then start midi translator and make sure de midi in is BCD and midi out is midi yoke1, also midi thru must be able, now start VDJ and set up the sound card in advance mode as you see in my blog, now just turn on de midi mode in vDJ and start mixing.
Every time you close VDJ make sure you disable de midi mode in VDJ.
I've noticed some funtions in the original xml file that are not asigned and apears like this "nothing" in the sortcuts list, delete all of them because those cause conflicts in VDJ
If you want i can send you my personal xml file the one you see in my blog I know is in spanish but if you have any questions let me know
I hope this will help you.

the problem was strictly audio with my "weak" PC (Celeron 2,4 Ghz).
I updated to P4 3,2Ghz 1GbDDR2 and everything works perfect. My point is that Behringer should update theire Minimum System Requirements for BCD2000.
No problem now. BCD is so far the best thing my money could buy. I'm happy with my choice, beside some bad rumors i've heard before.

Word on the street is Virtual DJ has sold out to Numark and are keeping quiet till thier new hardware comes out, this leaves everyone who bought the behringer bcd2000 with a nice blue doorstop and no decent software (unless of course you use the workaround which is too slow to be of any real use)

to slow my arse turn on the bcd2000 open midi translator set three items and youre away. im running a celeron 3.06 chip £60 from ebuyer and 512 mb ram and have no problems your computer must be full of compleate tat and need a good clean up for u to be having that sort of trouble. here are some tips that might help some of you first off if youre using xp then 256 mb ram is the bare minimum to run' and most programs wont run properly without 512mb. next up is the hard drive make sure its not full of crap and make sure its tidy windows defrag is no good and more often than not will split your pagefile into multiple pieces making your computer have to do more work than needed every single action' something like perfectdisk 7 is mutch better. you also need to make sure your registry is ok and dosent contain lots of irrelevant entrys to programs that have been deleted but have left behind crap'tuneup utilitys is good for that job. then there is the hard drive itself now if you are one of those people who connect your hard disk to the same ide cable as your cd or dvd drive then stop it dont do it there is a well known fact that is true that the ide channel will only run at the speed of the slowest device on the chain so if you have got a hard drive witch is ata 133 then dont think that its going to work at that speed if its attached to the same cable as the dvd or cd they usualy run at udma 33 or 66 so having them connected to the same cable will be the bottle neck in any system and the same goes for memory modules you get my point i hope this has been of help.

please do not assume i am a complete muppet.
I have been building music specific PCs for the past 15 years and my laptop has more memory than I do.
For my style of mixing the response time of the software with the workaround is far too slow, if your just mixing tunes together its great i agree but cutting from one deck to other very quickly is a no go by the time the Xfader is back the software is only just starting.
Your advice is more suited to a bedroom DJ with no real understanding of PCs and the internal workings of windows

no offence intended mate the advise was not intended just for you but to a lot of outhers who do not have the experience that old gits like us do. i get what ur on about my latency on my bcd2000 is 10 ms and theirs still a fair bit of lag when trying to do crabs or transform even with hercules controllers there is lag i dont think the software can cope with scratch mixing or dealing with midi key/note info at high rates im in the same boat so for now ill just use my faithfull pdx2000 and analouge mixer for fast cutting and just use vdj for simple 4x4 house

I finaly got my headphones to work thank to a few of you. My Asio driver set up was the problem. All I need now is my microphone and I am good to go. All this with out a midi yoke. I don't need the scratch wheel I have a XP10. So I am almost there just one step away.

Well I spoke to soon. If I use the asio driver the controller. The buttons start to have problems.

does this xml file supports the VDJ v1 best? Because I've tried it with a demo version of virtual dj 3.3, but I have problems. The software crashes after some songs and I can't manage the headphone to work correctly...

The headphone and the midi inputs work only in the PRO version, not in the DEMO

hi guys,
I used the method of juliocqb but i cant get it running right for the bcd2000.
I'm using virtual dj 3.1, but when I use the xml, all keys are messed up, for example;
- the pitch bend '-' button on the bcd is the play button
- volume slider becomes save recording as
Is there a way to make it work with 3.1?
I have also setted up the asio drivers as decribed a few pages ago, only problem
is the messed up keys.
