MIXVIBES Dj Community old forum

Hello again all!


So I tried out Cross DJ and I watched quite a few videos about the software. It's pretty good from what I've seen with only a couple if things I don't like. I think the biggest thing is not being able to use my controller with the free version. But all in all it resembles Torq quite a bit. My question is what should I get Cross DJ or Cross? From what I've seen Cross DJ has 2 decks and 2 samplers while Cross has 4 decks (correct me if I'm wrong). The other question is: is there another DJ software that I should try out?

I have the Torq Xponent and I'm going to be getting a new controller soon. The one I'm looking at is the American Audio VSM 4.1. Is this a good choice for Cross or is there a different controller that is better. What I'd like to do is run the Xponent and another controller so I can play 4 decks instead of having to switch back and forth on one controller. Also a MIDI mapping for the Xponent would be great.


All in all I like how Cross looks but I'd like to hear some feedback about some of the features that I don't get with the free version. Thanks again everyone!

Cross and CrossDJ are basically the same program. The only differences being, is that CrossDJ does not have Timecode
or HID support.

I would say not.

I believe the AA VMS 4.0 needs some sort of special firmware in order for it to be used with Cross (but I may be wrong) so you may run into problems with the VMS 4.1 and you may need a similar solution for it.

I use the Hercules 4-Mx with Cross and it works great with the software. I also have the MixVibes U-Mix Control Pro 2 which mirrors the software down to a tee. This is great little controller as
well.

But there is a shed load of good controllers out there at the minute.

Well I saw something about the AA VMS 4.0 having a firmware update somewhere on this site. I like this controller because of the 4 channel inputs and faders, and the number of inputs on it. If you know of a controller that is better than this let me know.

Also is it safe to say that I should just buy Cross DJ instead of Cross just to start out? Thanks again

Well if you don't need timecodes or HID at the present then go for it

You can always upgrade to Cross at a later date
