"Hey everybody. My name is Matt and I'm speaking to you on behalf of Expert Village. So, you've started up Virtual DJ and if you pick the correct skin, it should be looking something like this. First I'm going to teach you where everything is. On either side, you will see your turntables. This is where you are going to be playing your music and your samples; and you will see some levers - these are your gain and your pitch levels; and in the middle is your mixer; there's a couple tabs here. You've got your remix tab, which you can use for samples and looping. In the middle are your queues, which you can use to queue up certain parts of the song and then you've got your e-queue which you can use to adjust the equalizer on each of your tracks. You'll see below each turn table, you've got your play, pause, stop and things. You should be familiar with these. Down here at the bottom, you've got another dialogue; by default, this is where your music is going to be. It's where you pick your music. If you click on sample, this is where you can drag in samples and play them while you are mixing your music. You've got your effects tab, which you can use for some effects on the turntables and on the music. You've got the record tab, which you an use to actually record the music in real-time. You can also use it to burn your remix to a CD. Up here at the top, this is where you are going to see the wave form for each of your different songs you are going to be playing."
