Dj Loops Free Download
I am a fairly new dj… I have virtual dj pro… I don’t like the samples you can download from virtual dj. Can I download samples from Loopmasters, for example and use them in virtual dj, or are they only for Abelton, and Traktor users. If I can use them in virtual dj, where do I find them on the computer and how do I get them into virtual dj.
Many thanks for any help,
Steve
I don’t know VDJ personally, but I am assuming that it works with loops like all the others. At the end of the day a loop is just a piece of music in wav format (often). And by using it in a sampler, remix deck or whatever nice name they have given it, you can make it loop and sync to a track or vice versa.
Therefor any loop you have should be able to be used in your sampler. Now obviously there are sites where you can get free samples and paid sites. To the best of my knowledge LoopMasters are a paid site. You have to buy their loops.
I am sure some of our reades will be well versed in loop use in VDJ and where you need to install/copy the loop files to use them in VDJ.

You can load any music file into the samplers of VDJ.
I suggest you upgrade to VDJ Pro 8 (as a Pro User it is free to upgrade) as there the sample slots are also unlimited from loop times and setup. So basically anything goes.If you go to the sampler section and right click the little icon in the corner od each bank and click load. then you should be able select whatever music file you want.
I use loops and samples a lot in VDJ with my N4. Using 4 decks, I would far prefer to use a loop played off one of the decks than the sampler. With the sampler you only have control over the volume of the sample (along with whether it loops or is a one shot, whether it syncs or not, etc). I prefer playing loops and samples right off the decks so I can manipulate them on the fly, apply EQ, see the waveform, etc. The only things I load to the sampler are three commonly used phrases I put in almost every mix. The N4 only has three on-the-fly sample buttons and I don’t like using a keyboard to access the sampler to play the others…far easier to load the “sample” to a deck and use it like a scratch phrase. That’s just my preference though.
Terry is right when he mentions above upgrading to the full Pro version if you’re going to make extensive use of the sample feature. On an LE version you can’t save the samples to the database file, so you have to reload all your samples each time you launch the program…in the Pro version you can save them to the database. (You mentioned you use Pro, so this is more a comment for anyone else who reads this thread). Depending on what controller you’re using though, you’ll still only have push-button-access to a few of your samples.
To answer your main question though, you can use any audio file your software will play to load to a sample slot in VDJ. You can even record them on the fly, though I personally think that’s the sort of thing that should be set up well in advance to ensure perfection. Given how easy the on the fly loop system is in VDJ, add to that four decks of control, and you can achieve the same thing much easier (again, just my opinion and workflow/method…I still use a lot of vinyl habits when mixing digitally because it’s just ho I came up) by using two decks to play tracks and two decks to play loops, samples. A sample phrase put together in a wave editor with accurate cue points just feels far more reliable to me…I only use the sampler for verbal one shots. It’s easier to get the levels right as well because of the EQ control and peak meter. The how-to’s of recording samples to the sample bank (over writing the built ins) is in the VDJ user manual, but the short of it is this: load the sample to a deck, hit PFL for that deck, hit record on the sampler while the portion you want to sample plays. If you have that portion of the track looped, VDJ will record it as a continuous sample. If it isn’t looped it will capture it as a one-shot, starting and stopping where you hit record and stop respectively.
Edit: should say four on the fly sample buttons on the N4…I accidentally typed three because I only use three of them andmy brain just ignores the other…long story as to why. Anyway….
Using free tool like LoopDropZ you can hear that the original song/loop is not cut wrong since it plays perfectly. So the same happens in virtual dj when I drag it into a deck and use the repeatsong script on a button. I was modifying a 6 deck skin I started a bit back which would be a prelude to figuring out how to make maybe a 16 or more.
