Hi there, so I've been getting into DJing and watched a helpful video on youtube about PFL and -0dB rule: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBW_pKHoFHg
Now I understand that VDJ has PFL meters, but they aren't colour coded, so it's very tough to judge where I should be setting my PFL. Is there a skin that has colour changing PFL indicators that change to yellow and red?
I hope you can shed some light on the issue, whether or not the PFL may change colour, what is the highest point of the PFL, -0dB?

that is only applicable for analog mixers that can boost the audio over 0db, with digital music if you go higher than 0db you get clipping, which is essentially hitting the roof of the frequency and making a hard distorted sound worse than distortion which takes away all the variation in the sound, that is why vdj can set the gain of your tracks at 0 so there is no clipping of the audio. Just set the gain to "auto" or "auto & remember" in "config -> options"
Finally for digital audio you just want to see the levels dancing, that goes for production as well, there is nothing worse than an over driven muddy track, take a lesson from Dr Dre... If its not loud enough you need to turn something down to make space, in this case its your source down and the speakers up to compensate, if that doesn't work get bigger speakers and it will...
