[. . . ] - The most important setting is the ASIO buffer size. The default setting is 480 (10ms), which is a good average for most computers. Note that the smaller the ASIO buffer size, the shorter the response time. If you encounter audio problems (such as static or crackling), increase or decrease the ASIO buffer size until you find the correct setting for your computer (there are no ideal settings, as all computer configurations are different). - Changes to the ASIO settings can only be made while your application is not running. 18/30 ­ User Manual 7. 3. 4. Audio tab (not available on PC) In the Audio tab (on Mac only), you can change the sample size from the default value (16-bit) to 24-bit. The best audio setting for VirtualDJ 7 LE 4Set is the default setting of 16-bit/44. 1kHz, which provides the best response time. For software where response time is not as important, you can play music in 24-bit mode (44. 1KHz or 48 KHz) in Mac OS (Core Audio). 7. 3. 5. Advanced tab - You can adjust the cross fader settings according to your preference (BeatMix Curve by default). The different settings that are available affect the way that the cross fader functions as you move it from side to side, in relation to the central position: depending on how you will be mixing, you may wish for the cross fader's action to be applied much more sharply when it is moved from the central position (meaning that if you move the cross fader even a little bit to the left, for example, the effect will be as though it had been moved all the way to the left; and the same when moving it to the right), or less sharply. You can experiment with the different curves available and easily switch from one to another, depending on the kind of mixing you are doing at any given time. Your speakers are now ready for use with your DJ 4Set. 8. 2. Connecting headphones Your DJ 4Set features 1 headphone connector, on the front panel (¼" jack = 6. 35mm). Headphones are set to channels 3-4 by default, but can also be set to channels 1-2 instead (for more information, please refer to chapter 7. 3. 5. The console has been designed to function with DJ headphones (stereo, impedance from 16 to 64 ohms). 9. CONNECTING A MICROPHONE Your DJ 4Set features one mono ¼" jack (6. 35mm) plug on its front panel. We recommend using a vocal microphone with an impedance of between 1 and 64 ohms. You can use your microphone to talk over the music and communicate with your audience. Please note that microphones requiring phantom power are not supported by DJ 4Set. Press the Mic On button on your DJ 4Set to toggle the microphone on or off. You can use the microphone level control knob to adjust the input volume for your microphone. User Manual ­ 21/30 The DJ 4Set features a talkover function for the microphone input, which automatically reduces the level of the music that's playing to allow you to be heard when you're speaking. The music level is restored once the microphone input is disabled.
