Topic: Virtual DJ Is Hot Garbage!!!
Bad enough you have to have a I 20 0r a Ryzen 15 to run stems, but i have to deal with the tempo either dropping or increasing when I'm doing a set. Too much AI Garbage in the program. VDJ should have pre-set settings that work with a DJ's needs. trying to configure this program is terrible. I start off on a BPM and it either drop or increase and throws my whole set off. I tried setting it not to do that, but it does it anyway. I do a radio show so having the program work is important. Im sure I'm not the only person dealing with this. Pro license so i have every right to be upset.

Wow!
An attitude like that won't get you you far here..
There are plenty of people willing to help here, and if you took just a step back you would have realised that most (if not all) of your problems are due to lack of understanding of how the program operates.

Now if you really need help, just describe your problem and a lot of people will try to help.
If you just want to "complain" (for lack of a better word) then I don't think there's much to be said.

PS: Most likely your "real" issue is that VirtualDJ by default uses "FLUID" BPM algorithm when scanning files, and not a constant/steady BPM that you are used to dealing with.
If you need more help, read my post again. Then describe your problem again.
 
You basically don't understand how VirtualDJ adjustments work. Rather than saying it's garbage, it's best to just post your problem and see how we can help you fix it. Don't you think?

Tip: Option-»Fluid
 

It's the best DJ software on the market, but you're probably right to be frustrated that these features (BPM stabiliser) in particular are enabled by default.
 
Lol as @PhantomDeejay said, this post is just a rant with no direction - you have to dig within it to get something of value/the real summary:

I don't know how to configure the software to behave like how I want to (which in the majority of cases = the way how <software x>, where I came from, operates).


There is nothing wrong with pointing out flaws, but how you say it matters.
In most cases, I see these very same people on other forums, pointing out probably even worse flaws/omissions, but the way they describe it is much gentler (often with an opening or closing line singing the praises of the software) and that's most likely because "their favorite DJ/influencer uses it", or some other false stereotype of the software/internalization that makes the approach different here.

The devs/mods don't have to tolerate this behavior, and the devs don't even have to answer in the forums (if you come from other software you definitely know what that means), but they do, and they keep making pushes to help persons on the forum, regardless of their behavior/tone.

Summary = it's a two-way street, if you want your requests to be respected, you have to respect the platform and the staff, and understand that we are just some of many different users of the software for which they have to serve (just because you have a Pro licence doesn't make you special, everyone on here using the software in a Professional setting has the same licence) - be understanding and help them to help you, because responses like this, ultimately don't help anyone.
 
Pro license so i have every right to be upset.


Just because you bought the software 10 years ago Doesn't give you the "right" to be upset. Your lack of understanding which features to enable and disable is the bigger issue here. A lot has changed in 10 years but if you want the same functionality you had 10 years ago, the software can be that Just ask....... kindly
