I recently bought the Pioneer DDJ-1000 and although I tried to use it with ReKordbox, I just had too many issues. I explain why I chose VDJ over ReKordbox in this video.

Very brave video. Not many people will stand with their faces and say VDJ is better pointing out features. Theres huge money behind Recordbox and Serato printing their names on controllers. VDJ neglected marketing and the result for many years now is that they have better software that everyone is tought to be ashamed with.

See how happy he was showing us the virtual dj software. That pitch reset demo had me sold. That’s been my issues for the few months I’ve been using rekordbox. That having to change reset all my changes everytime I’m in there is whack…especially when your new…forgetting or not knowing that laptop 💻 button is up there to hear your music from its speakers 🔊 & not just your headphones drive me bonkers for days at a time

Right on man!!! I’m glad I’m not alone. Regardless of what the industry says I don’t care, I’m loving VDJ, IT IS THE BEST. I don’t give a F about what they say, what it counts is my experience, which is the same you have, VDJ is awesome, it remembers everything, even cue points even though I remove the drive where the tracks are. Every thing is simple, intuitive and flawless. Not to mention it has countless features, therefore VDJ supports way more hardware than the others, that’s why I started with VDJ, because my first controller was so crappy almost a toy, and there it was VDJ supporting it, then when I got a Pioneer DDJ FLX4 I tried Rekordbox based on the reviews and couldn’t stand it, not to mention how insanely expensive it is. So, GO VDJ all the way.

I hv been a vdj user from day1 and I got my ddj1000 last yr and been checking out RB over that span of time and it does come with a learning curve but I hvnt experienced it not remembering the crossfader settings at all. For 1 u had ur crossfader curve all the way to the max and the .3 cut is almost like a 0. I'm sure if u moved ur curve in to the 3oclock position it would've stayed there and given u the same results u wanted with adjustment u mad. Mine doesn't move from where I set it in both RB5 and rb6. Vinyl mode included, but the hiding of the jog view isnt a fixed setting for some reason. The library system in RB is a playlist system, like the crate system in serato. Rb just allows us to access our music folders in the browser menu, but as far as to get the search bar an d things like tracks with matching keys, that can only be done in a playlist- not the "folders" where u were. They are indirectly forcing u to create playlists like serato. The collection is the area that sees all imported music added to RB and there is a shortcut (cntrl+F) that jumps to the collection to allow the user to search the entire collection, no matter where u are in the program. Mapping buttons to other functions is also possible in RB, but some of it is hidden. For instance it was only 3 months ago I learned where to find the crossfader curve setting to be mapped in RB and prior to I looked for it over and over believing it didn't even exist. In vdj it was way easy to find and map. I would still choose RB over serato tho as it has way cooler features as phrasing tracks and my tag which helps in library management, but vdj is still my #1 program.

@@armgod1 nah bro... u're partly wrong what u think the control+F does. Scroll to page 6 of the link and look for the section that says general. The feature is called 'global search' to search the entire collection. When these keys are hit, it will take u out from wherever u are in the browser menu/ playlists/ folders section/ sampler/ automix etc.... and place u directly in the collection, along with dropping the cursor in the search bar. cdn.rekordbox.com/files/20200312171201/rekordbox_5.0.0_default_keyboard_shortcut_reference_EN.pdf

rekordbox has a learning curve one must achieve. clearly u didn't because you already had your ties with vdj. the first 2 0r 3 issues were connected to a single setting you didn't make (and had to make just once). Having said that, I am not a proponent of any single dj software - I love and own 3 different ones (djay, rkb, serato). sold my vdj key for cheap coz i didn't have use for it

@@k9chance250 It sounds like you've spent the necessary time learning & understanding RB. If I may I'd like to tell you my situation and ask you for advice? This past summer as I was ready to buy a controller nothing I wanted was in stock. 1st choice the Denon Prime 4. I've read and heard it does the most with the most features + no laptop. I didn't like the jog wheels being so small. 2nd choice The Pioneer ddj 1000 RB. I liked the technology and the size of the jog wheels on the Pioneer ddj-1000 RB...also out of stock. I decided to go ahead and order the Pioneer ddj 1000 RB cuz I heard a lot of good positive things about Pioneer & Record Box. I'm not referring to hearing "the industry standard"...but overall good impressions about Pioneer/Record Box. I don't have the spare $$ to take an online class for Record Box. Could you recommend some videos or articles that can help me dive deep into learning and understanding Record Box ?? Thanks for your time !!
