Setting & Using Cues in Virtual DJ

Video Transcript

"Hey everybody, my name is Matt and I'm speaking to you on behalf of Expert Village. If you click on the cues tab, this is on your mixer between the two tables. It will take you to a dialog that looks like this. From here you can set what they call cues, and a track which is basically just a marker that you can quickly set and go to at any point. On the left you'll see a little dot (a little black dot) within a button, that's the "set cue". To the right, you'll see what looks like a little arrow within the button, and that's the "go to" cue. What this is good for, if you notice the track playing on my table on the right. It has just a long ocean sound for awhile before it actually gets to the song. So what I can do (you can do all this in real time) I can actually fast forward to a part in the song where I want to go to, past the beginning. There, I just set a cue and if I click on the "go to" it will automatically go back to it. So, if I'm playing a song on my left track, I can just click the "go to" cue and cross fade over there, and it automatically goes to the part of the song I want to be in. This is good if your mixing songs quickly live and you just want to get to the hook of a song. You can do this for either table."
