Hi,
I got a few questions.
Do you rely on the BPM's and CPG's calculated by Virtual DJ?
I find it can be inaccurate on faster tunes with a fuller sound (I mainly play house and break beat). When I see one that's not quite right I use the "manual beat tap buton" to correct it. I haven't gone as far as to setting anchors for the CPG's yet but think I should. The manual doesn't really explain setting CPG's very well, has anyone got any pointers.
Also, is there a way to normalize the volume so I don't have to rely on tweaking the incoming track volume so much.
Thanks

I rely, it usually matchs between decks.
For the normalize function: many users use external softwares.

for matching the CBGs using the anchors I'll explain how I do it.
1st - load your song on deck A or B. then right click on the song and chose edit BPM.
2nd - forward your song until you get to your 1st beat (beat 1 of 32) (Highest peak available)
3rd - click on set anchor 1
4th - play your song and count your beats. get to beat 9.
5th - align the beat (highest peak available)
6th hit set anchor 2
If you find that later in your song the CBGs drift off beat try doing the same but increasing the beat size. try 4 or 8 or 16, 32 or the entire song if needed.
for 4 beats you would set the 2nd anchor on the 5th beat, 8 beats would be set on beat 9. Basically how many beats were played.
Best Regards
