Sujet: Gain levels peaking

Ce topic est ancien et peut contenir des informations obselètes ou incorrectes.

I use gain auto and remember. On many of the songs the gain level bars will peak to the top. The are at the 80% - 100% of the gain bars. On my board I would never have the levels peaking that high. Is this okay or is the gain too high? I am wondering if auto gain is setting the songs too hot.

Bring your board up and then you should notice you software gain go down,
 
How will that make the gain go down since the board is separate from the software? I go from a sound card to the board to the powered speakers. The masters are at 100% on Virtual DJ.
 
I have a Hercules controller but I disabled everything but the cross fader.
 
lift VDJ volume down turn, 3rd fader on rmx and turn board up!! you know where the volume is on board right?
 
It wont hurt anything to turn the software gain down a bit so that the VDJ VU meters stop peaking. The software is not perfect in a sense that it will always find the best gain. Use the auto+remember option.


Trust your ears and use the VUs to reinforce what your ears are hearing.
 
but for 7 versions this should have changed.... you should be able to set your target volume....it seems vdj preset it at 100 whether it clips or not.....this is the only thing about vdj i dont like
 
The VDJ is much like a digital audiometer in that the top of the scale would be 0 DB.
The analog meter on your mixer 0 DB is 3/4ths up the scale.
 
VDJ auto gain is distorting too many songs for me. Many of my songs have the VU meters hitting the top, causing distortion. Is there a way that we can adjust a lower gain level? VDJ should reduce this in the next update.
 
 
Thanks SJdad. This is the answer to my problem. I will have to change my auto gain to "auto" from "auto+remember". This will change the gain of all of my previous viewed songs and videos.
