INTERFACE - ZONES
Before beginning to use VirtualDJ, familiarize yourself with the controls and “zones” of the software.
Upon opening the application, an interface menu is displayed. Interfaces called “skins” feature different
configurations, layouts and functionality of the software. Let’s begin by selecting “Internal mixer
interface” to become familiar with the most important features of the software. To change to a different
skin while the software is running, click on the “Config” menu and select the “Skins” tab.

BROWSER
The Browser Zone is the area where to navigate and organize files stored on a local, external, or
network hard disk. The browser contains the compatible file types (i.e. whose extensions are
associated with the decoders in VirtualDJ) to access the compatible extensions list. Click the “Config”
menu then choose the “Codecs” tab. See the “Codecs” section of the manual for further details.
The Browser zone is divided into panels.
1. File System / Folder Structure
2. File / Search Results
3. Automix Playlist
4. Sidelist
File System / Folder Structure Panel (1)
VirtualDJ provides several organizational groupings of the track collection and a few third-party
interfaces by default. Also provided is the ability to create additional navigation aids. To better
understand the managed groups and interfaces click the “Config” button and view the “Browser” tab.
The “Browser” tab allows the selection of the various groupings that can be viewed. Each item
‘checked’ will have an associate entry on the File System / Folder Structure panel (1).
Volumes – shows the File System navigation option from the My Computer structure
Desktop – shows the File System navigation option from the Desktop structure
NetSearch – NetSearch provides access to searching the Internet to try to find the song you're
looking for. You can then instantly stream the song or video directly off the Internet.
** To learn more about this feature and additional features that compliment the
NetSearch capabilities, visit our website at www.virtualdj.com .

BROWSER
Genres – provides a generated tree of Genre types based on the imported ID3 tag Genre field. By
selecting on the various listed genres the file browser panel (2) only shows those entries that match the
tag.
History – provides access to data stored about each session use of VirtualDJ. The data is stored as
.m3u playlist files and it is stored in the My Documents -> VirtualDJ\Tracklisting folder.
History data is saved on the fly in order to provide running history of played tracks for each 24hr
timeframe of use.
iTunes – displays iTunes playlists and uses the information in the playlist for accessing files. If the files
don’t exist per the playlists path, an ‘Error’ shows up in the deck’s display when attempting to load the
track.
Crates – allows access to the crates structure created and utilized by the Serato ScratchLive
application.
Playlists – show or hide the contents of the My Documents -> VirtualDJ\Playlist folder. This is where
an Automix playlist is saved by default.
Favorites – show or hide any created folder favorites, created from a right-click on a folder in the
Desktop navigation structure and selecting “Set as favorite” from the menu or by using the icon on
the panel’s right divider bar.
VirtualFolders – show or hide any created VirtualFolders created from clicking on the icon found
on the right divider bar
FilterFolders – show or hide any created FilterFolders created from clicking on the icon found on
the right divider bar
