PERFORMANCE SETTINGS

Safe Mode – When using a DirectX mode setting (like Simple, Dual, Mono or 4.1), VirtualDJ is
less likely to produce glitches and pops if your CPU is momentarily busy. The performance
trade off is scratching and pitch adjustments will use more CPU, especially with advanced
algorithms. So, if using advanced Master Tempo this will probably need to be disabled, unless
the computer is very fast.

NOTE: this option has no effect on ASIO or Low-Latency modes

Overclock – This setting can make your computer run faster (espec ially on laptops) and
th erefore be compatible with lower latencies.

Scratch – Allows for adjustment to how VirtualDJ reacts to scratch motions

Optimize for:

Quality – VirtualDJ wi ll
more accur ately represent
how a scratch sounds
when moving the virtual
record back and forth

Latency – VirtualD J
reacts as quickly as
possible but might result
in a somewhat m ore
metallic sound.

Scratch algorithm:

Simple Algorithm – adds
no computational
overhead, and will use a
simple interpolation
algorithm to compute the
scratch sound

Enhanced Algorithm – uses an advanced algorithm that mimics the movement
of the needle on the grooves, to obtain the best scratch sound possible. A filter
size of 11 gives the best quality/CPU ratio, producing a very good quality while
keeping a low computational overhead.
