Playlist & Automix Management

Using the Playlist management menu by clicking on the icon choose from the options
how the automix functions and tracks are managed in the playlist.

Automix Types – 5 modes

ƒ SMART – VirtualDJ attempts to
determine the optimal mix point based
on the outro of the current track and
intro of the upcoming track – mix time
varies from ~4 to ~8 secs depending
on the tracks

ƒ FADE (remove intro/outro) – attempts
to remove the dead air intro or outro
segments and creates a crossfade point based on the settings of the Automix Length

ƒ FADE (remove silence) – keeps the entire track from beginning to end while removing
any ‘dead air’ or ‘silence’ that may be present in the track and creates a crossfade point
based on the settings of the Automix Length

ƒ FADE (remove nothing) – keeps the entire track from beginning to end and creates a
crossfade point based on the settings of the Automix Length

ƒ NONE (back-to-back) – this is a simple CUT mix that plays the files from complete
from start to finish including any air gaps at the beginning or end

Automix Length
