This is done the simplest way with a ncord from Radio Shack and you can go further with the laptop when you add a deck to the laptop which will give you a wide and wild way to use your laptop with your system. The basic wire is no more than a headphone jack to two rca plugs so it can attach to your mixer. Just to see what you can do with the laptop at Virtual DJ Home free version. Just make sure your laptop can take the program before you download it. This is the basic way to set things up and see what is out there on different decks. Let me know how this helped you to just start. Sure you can.

Read the articles that relate to laptop. Just that I see that you have a little problem unless you are allowed to remove the mixer to make all of your connections that you will need to hook it up.

Don't run them at 100%. And I found out that I can run two the same songs on the decks and I don't have a problem other than the bass increasing. I didn't have to go to a seperate hard-0drive for the second song once it finished loading. Hey keep in touch and if you are on face-book, sign up to be a friend of Pgh Vibes. He is my son and has been doing a lot of sound effects for some Haunted Houses around our area. He is still working at the Amusement park; Kennywood Park, near Pittsburgh, Pa. as their sound tech. He even has to start wiring their sound systems up for Fright Nights at the park and at two other places. If you want, you can e-mail me at bill@jffdj.com so we can keep in touch. Even if you want, we can get you to supply an article for the blog site. Hey! what new job did you start? talk to you later and get some sleep. Yes. Don’t run them at 100%.

This is DJ Bill getting back to you about your music problem. Here is a couple of things that I found out about my program that I am using since I no longer have a copy of Virtual DJ hand, I can tell you to check in the options and see if yours has a bass cut. If it does, check it, because this helped eliminate the bass boost on my program. Then go in and put a second copy of what you are trying to play at the same time. I found out that this will help it out and then you can use two songs off the same hard- drive. I looked on a dj forum and they said that the bass tends to boost when you are trying to play two of the same songs together and that using that filter will help eliminate that bass problem. But they also said to at least run your gains at 50 - 75% or lower. Since the computer sees it as you trying to play the same, it has a tendency to double the output volume of the song that you are playing, so this gives you some headroom to adjust either up or down. I hope that this has given you a little lite as to what happens while playing the same mp3 with itself, always use a second copy is what others have said will help. Thank you and keep on reading. If you don't mind me asking, where are you located as what city and state. If I know someone in your area, I can let you get in touch with them. Hi!

The problem that you have is called phase shifting and is a commen effect when to songs are played at the same time and the same speed. If you take and increase one song by just a touch and then back again, you will notice that the music will sort of shift back and forth as you do this moving the pitch up and back again, that is the PHASE SHIFT. This is not a problem with the computer or the equipment. It is a commen effect that happens when two songs are played the way that you do. I take it that you have never worked with vinyl. you can have some fun with this effect with a little practice in how you use it. Thank you for asking. Also I forgot that some effects of playing two songs off the same hard-drive may cause the program to not understand what you are trying to do. Try one song from the internal and the other from an external, this may be another problem that i forgot about when I was Typing this responce to you. I had forgot about the one hard-drive with two songs. To me this is also a new field for me to venture in on since I am so used to using vinyl. I will have to try that with my own equipment in the next couple of days, since my equipment is not set up here. So I will see if this problem also happens with PCDJ-KJ. This is the program that I am using right now. I will get back to you and let you know what happens. Thank you for explaining your problem a little further than what you had in the beginning.
