DJ RuDeDoGG – Serato does not have a sync feature, unless you are counting the waveform display where you can line up the peaks and valleys. You still have to do this manually, there is no “Auto Sync” button like on VDJ.
Yeah you’re right but since I never use the sync function even on VDJ it doesn’t matter whether Serato has one or not. Using ANY computer program regardless of whether its VDJ or Serato can still be considered cheating to a die hard turntablist, because of the wave forms and the digital bpm readings you don’t have to rely on your ears as much to beat match like back in my vinyl days where we didn’t have any program to help us. Like I said earlier, a software program is helpful to me in doing more, not doing my job. The thing is if you want it to do all the work for you, you can, but that doesn’t mean it will sound good, that’s where the skills of a REAL DJ come in.
Wow RuDeDoGG really loves Virtual DJ… but so do I! for me the main selling point is the ability to map any midi controller to almost any function you can think of, so you can personalize any settings. I also find that since the upgrade of 6.0 (it’s now at 7.0) there has been no stability issues whatsoever on my system, and the audio engine while just not quite on par with traktor and serato, is improving all the time, but I’m talking listening to it through studio monitors, normal (compressed) systems sound the same.
The one thing I find bad about VDJ is that some of the plugin effects sound cheap, although vdj has the ability to run vsti effects which can ease the pain a bit.
I use VDJ with an acer dual core, 2.8ghz, 4gig ram, windows 7, timecode vinyl, and an audio 8, serato vinyls & M447′s, I find that the timecode engine is fantastic in absolute mode with no drift and great latency, if you go relative you get a little drift, but all digital vinyl systems do that, the only time I ever hear crackling is when I beat juggle as fast as I can in absolute mode but as soon as you drop the record it corrects it self with an echo, which can sound cool if you use it right.
I personally beatmatch by ear, to to the whingers who said sync doesn’t work, It’s because you need to adjust the computer beat grid before hand (just like traktor) but you would know that if you read the manual, although that probably doesn’t come with the illegal cracked version… LMAO

It depends on what kind of dj you are. As a mobile dj, NI Traktor Pro 2 is the best for me.
Time have changed. Its not cheating its keeping up
