Favorite Folders
You may want to define a collection of directories which are most frequently used – for
example, “Hits of 2006” or “My Music” The best solution is using the Favorite Folders. Think
of Favorite Folders as Shortcuts to a folder in the operating system.
How to:
Select a folder (or a subfolder) from the Folders List and click on the button to set this
folder as a Favorite one (or right-click on the same folder and choose this option from the
offered menu). The Favorite folder will be then added at the bottom of your Folders List as a
clone and will get a special icon. Favorite folders are mainly used to provide quick access
to folders that you frequently visit and get constantly updated along with the original folder
(monitored)
Normal Folder
same folder set as Favorite
Right-click on a Favorite Folder to Remove or Rename it (can have a different name from
the original), or even create a subfolder and other offered Batch operations such as
Add/Remove to/from Search DB , analyze for BPM etc.
Notes :
- Favorite Folders will carry all their sub-folders, along with all the nested Virtual or Filter Folders
- Any changes done on either the original or the Favorite folder will apply on both.
Content Unlimited
Unlike regular consumers who buy their favorite music tracks one by one on iTunes or
Beatport, DJs have very different needs: When you work a gig, or even just practice at
home, you need more than just your favorite top 20 tracks. Probably hundreds if not
thousands of tracks may be needed, some of them you might play once or twice in your life
and never see them again. Obviously buying all of them is not a practical option.
That's why VirtualDJ offers the Content Unlimited subscription service.
You can play any song you want, from the millions available, without limits, as long as
your subscription is active. You can even download all the songs you want on your
computer and play them in VirtualDJ without an Internet connection.
