I stream all on one computer. I have the master out from VDJ on ch1&2 and the headphones on ch3&4. I set VDJ ch1&2 to my computer sound card and then monitor through the numark controller. There is loads of latency between the computer sound card and the numark but it doesn’t matter as I’m mixing through my headphones anyway with no speakers.
If I could use speakers at home I’d have to either run both master out and headphones through the internal sound card on the numark or use another laptop for the VDJ software and run it through my audio interface to get round OBS weird issue with the channels or get that program Therms was talking about.
I did have issues with OBS at first as was doing weird things with being able to hear the cueing track and / or that echo - I think this was OBS being set up with more than one input source.
managed to get a stream working (bar sketchy internet connection), but had to use the loopback app. And it costs $125 Seems silly to pay that much especially when i should be able to do the same thing using my interface’s built in mixer somehow
This is the VJ software I mentioned during the stream. The free version is full featured, but you can’t save unfortunately. Still useable I think with a bit of prep. I got it working in OBS with the window capture.
I’ve found that it’s pretty powerful with some great effects, though the UI could use some work. Supports video, images, gifs etc. and all the FX can be audio reactive.
That’s true. I couldn’t figure out DJing all in one so I just use my laptop. I mean if your PC badass maybe it’s worth it but there is so much going on with a stream it’s better to just use another PC.
I had a play around with that Visualz - i need to spend some more time with it … not sure it will do what I want though.
I have hours of footage - I’d really like some software that just transitions between all the mp4’s at random - being able to jump to random points in those video files and do all the cool fx that Visualz does… maybe it can do this?
It wouldn’t be that hard if you were doing a slot every week and got pretty good with everything. DJing is almost boring these days because you have the sync. You end up needing other things to do. And honestly I’d rather do that then add a bunch of stupid effects and loops and stuff people do. I just want to hear the tracks with nice transitions.
Yeah the guy (my mate’s cousin) that did the spinning record label viz for my only youtube video did that in FL Studio. I had no idea FL has viz/vidéo capabilities.
Been doing loads and loads of just that…
The Visualz on a budget solution
have loads of short clips (like 2 minutes stuff)
add them all to VLC player
set VLC to mute and randomize.
set the VLC GUI to on screen feedback: off
put the GUI in minimal mode (no toolbars whatsoever).
grab the VLC window content in OBS.
then you can move the VLC window somewhere to the side and click it when you want to switch videos and just press “N” (=next) on your pc keyboard to go to a random next video.
If you forget to go to a next video before the current video ends VLC will just go to a next random video from the playlist.
