Are you an event, mobile or wedding DJ using Virtual DJ, looking for some tips on how better to utilise the program? If so, watch on as today we’ve got two videos from DJ Rachel showing you how to use filter folders, and how to incorporate the sampler to enhance your performances.
1. Tame your library with filter folders
Mobile DJs need to have huge libraries to deal with all manner of requests. But big libraries bring problems of organisation. Luckily, technology offers all kinds of ways to tame large music libraries, and Virtual DJ has some particularly powerful features. In this lesson, DJ Rachel covers library basics, but focuses mainly on the powerful filter folder functions in Virtual DJ.
2. Easily add your own DJ drops and sound effects
Most good wedding, corporate and mobile DJs have a handful of personalised DJ drops, and many make playing sound clips a feature of their DJing, either to personalise a set to a client, or as part of events, games and so on within DJ sets. Virtual DJ’s powerful sampler is your aid in doing all of this easily, and so in this lesson DJ Rachel lifts the lid on it.
