Hey Vince.. WOW, you have taught me more about VDJ in this 25 minutes, than I’ve taught myself in the last 10 yrs. I started out as a KJ working for my nephew’s DJ business, then went on my own about 8 yrs ago or so. I purchased VDJ8, and I’ve used this program nightly. However, being a KJ was hard with limited ability with VDJ. BUT, I love the new HOLDER info and such!! Just what I’ve been looking for. I started using Karafun on a monthly subscription for the more up-to-date Karaoke lists, but found that VDJ makes Karafun crash typically 3-4 times a night. This is lovely when you have a singer going at a great song and all of a sudden Karafun Crashes… These new features I didn’t know about will be put in use coming next weeken.. THANK YOU!!!!! Great explanations also!!!
I have used various vdj programs for several years. I never used karaoke, but I have recently retired from dj-ing. I still have all my dj equipment. I was asked if I would be interested in this at a restaurant/bar, As a side hustle. You have been so informative, you made it so easy to follow. I'm very familiar with the vdj and know my way around it. So your video walked me through it, thank you.
Thank you for this. I do have two questions: 1) How do you connect the TV for the singer to see the lyrics? HDMI from the laptop? 2) Are songs available that have the singer singing as well? For sing along, not karaoke? Thank you.
Yes please I need this answer too!!… and can I just play any of my songs coming from Serato playlists once transferred to VDJ and they would automatically show the lyrics or do I need to download Kareoke versions of all songs?… if so, where do you get all of your Kareoke songs from? Thanks in advance! 🙏
Sounds great. One of my shows has over an hour wait from the moment I get started. It doesn’t slow down until around half an hour before closing. I actually have to stop talking requests way before that. This method would only work for me at my other shows. I’ll give it a try though. Thanks
Excellent walk through. On my Virtual DJ though when I do the drop down master box, under other there is a yellow folder which offers nothing if I click on it. How do I go forward?. Thank you

When my karaoke song ends. There's a split sec. when I see the Karaoke singer list skin. When my automix plays the filler music, the shin disappears and shows a circling ball. Any suggestions. thanks
Hey great tutorial , if your karaoke playlist gets full and you have problems adding new requests to the bottom, as the list fills up, just drop the new request on to the karaoke tab below the list ,and it will appear at the end of the list , this saves accidentally inserting them out of order , this also works inserting to the other tabs such as the automix list too
Hey man...I like how this DJ takes advices from other DJs without getting offended..we are all here to learn from each others DJs ideas ...awesome job...keep up the good job ..I have learned a lot from you guys ...

Hey Vince, again thanks for the great vid- helped immeasurably! Was wondering, do you ever have singers just drop out of the rotation, seemingly for no reason?? I'll be clicking along, and suddenly I'll notice my list doesn't seem as long- sure enough, I've had a couple of singers just disappear from the list! I've started writing the rotation down and cross checking as I go along, so I don't have skipped singers coming up angry lol! Thanks man, Happy Thanksgiving! I wouldn't bug you today with this but I'm working tonight lol-

Thanks in advance! 🙏
Thanks for this explanation. How do we get karaoke songs for VDJ? Not using the software yet however I would love to do karaoke. What other equipment do we need?
Karaoke tracks can be purchased all over the internet. Google is your best friend. They cost around $1.99 to $4.99 per track. You will also need microphones, a monitor to display lyrics and a sound system.
Thanks!! Not exactly sure what you're asking. I don't use any folders for the worklist. I just add singers songs to it. The worklist is the "placeholder" for the songs for the karaoke rotation list.
Thank you. I'm brand new to VDJ. This helped a lot. How do you obtain the individual songs? For example, if I want to sing a song that you don't have on your computer, how do you get that? I don't have any music yet & don't know where to begin to get music.

@@DJ2Legit007 Hey DJ. I'm wanting to switch over my DJ service to Karaoke and need to find a site to download my music. Did you say that each song is maybe $2 or $3. Wow. That would cost 1000's of dollars! I have a new hard drive all ready to download something. Will
I purchased them from different karaoke websites throughout the years. Been purchasing tracks for many years. Use google to find where to purchase karaoke tracks. They are all over the internet.
When saving karaoke songs what is the process for listing them as karaoke. Does VDJ recognize the format of a CDJ automatically? What if you have a video downlladed from youtube. Can you marjk that as karaoke or do you just put it in a karaoke foleder?
VDJ recognizes karaoke zip files and also mp4 files. If you have some ripped mp4 karaoke files from UA-cam, then you should put "karaoke" somewhere in the title so you know it's a karaoke track. VDJ will put a little microphone icon next to the other karaoke tracks.
thanks ive seen some krm users have special PAD settings that seem to simplify things. have you tried this. SO far i havent been able to get the pad installed if you know how to do this and can offer help thatd be great @@DJ2Legit007

My bad. Yeah in this video I'm using the latest beta version of the plugin I got from the developer. The version you currently get from VDJ doesn't have the swap button yet. We're waiting for VDJ to approve it. Should be very soon!
The download is failing every time I try to install. It doesn't even try to download the plugin it goes straight to "download failed". Is the plugin not available anymore?
I got it to work! Just needed to update my vdj even though I thought I had auto updates on. Anyway, I am currently having an issue where if I keep the holder button on & have multiple songs for one person in the working list, it adds their next song to the #1 position under their name & adds their name to the very bottom as well with a place held? If I uncheck the holder button the work list works fine but then new singers with no other songs in work list will get deleted! Needless to say I had 27 singers last Friday and this was a gigantic mess!
Another thing is not being able to customize the scroller at all. It just says "up now" and then lists the singers no matter what you write in the text box on the master video section
@DJ2Legit007 Sorry to have upset you. I looked at the video 4 times it started from opening the program, then straight to how to use and move songs to the working list. Undubsribe.
@annieclark2939 I'm not upset. I was just confused why you didn't see a working list if you followed what I did in the video. The working list is automatically created when you activate the KRM plug-in as shown in the video. You don't have to create one. 😊
@@stuartpaul9211 You know you don't have to work that way, right? That's the beauty of VDJ. You can create whatever kind of workflow you desire. I am a DJ first and a control freak second lol. Therefore I LOVE going to my auto mix folder between songs. That control for me is priceless.
hi, yesterday I did my first karaoke show with vdj after using dex 3 for a year and a half, I watched your video several times and it was very instructive, helped me a lot. What I did experience and was difficult, but I think the fault lies with me, 1. after having introduced a few singers via workinglist and then list I saw that names of singers had changed, wrong numbers with wrong singers. 2. in the video when you press the karaoke song start the mix goes very smooth, and at the end the automix jumps back in, I have karaoke songs that sometimes have a silence and then you have to wait for the song to stop until we have sound from the automix again, not pleasant. 3. I work in a business with 16 TV screens, so I don't use mp3 in the automix but video files. so the crossfader really has to go from left to right, 4. every time I open vdj I have to put every list back in the search list. how do I solve all this and which points in the options should I adjust. can you help me with this please
Hi there. Hopefully I can answer all of your questions. 1. Not sure what you mean. The numbers will decrease as each singer finishes singing. That's supposed to happen. Not sure if that is what you are talking about though. 2. Go to your karaoke settings, in the KARAOKE box there is a little dot next to the button you use to turn KARAOKE ON. Set the background music to NONE. Now you have complete control and no more awkward silence. 3. Under your VIDEO tab, (AUDIO, VIDEO, SCRATCH, MASTER) there is a little button on the bottom right side of your video window. Select "Video Crossfader" - "Linked to Audio." Now you can crossfade videos smoothly. 4. I have noticed this too. It wasn't always like that. I think VDJ people did something to it.

Where did you get the karaoke tracks from to use in VDJ
I purchased them from different karaoke websites throughout the years. Been purchasing tracks for many years. Use google to find where to purchase karaoke tracks. They are all over the internet.
Hi how do I get the Karaoke plugin. Thank you.
Go into your settings then extensions then type in easyKRM in the search box.
Thank you where do you buy your karaoke music any best buyers?
Not really. I actually don't even buy new karaoke tracks anymore. I use Karafun for all the new tracks I don't own.
How did you get rid of the now playing text and cover?
This is an old video. The now playing text hadn't been added at that time.
When saving karaoke songs what is the process for listing them as karaoke. Does VDJ recognize the format of a CDJ automatically? What if you have a video downlladed from youtube. Can you marjk that as karaoke or do you just put it in a karaoke foleder?
VDJ recognizes karaoke zip files and also mp4 files. If you have some ripped mp4 karaoke files from UA-cam, then you should put "karaoke" somewhere in the title so you know it's a karaoke track. VDJ will put a little microphone icon next to the other karaoke tracks.
thanks ive seen some krm users have special PAD settings that seem to simplify things. have you tried this. SO far i havent been able to get the pad installed if you know how to do this and can offer help thatd be great @@DJ2Legit007
Right click on the video and select Tag Editor. In the window that pops up, you should see a box to check in the lower right corner to indicate whether or not it is karaoke.
I have 2017 MacBook Pro, and when I go to master and other, there’s no karaoke plug-in? How do you accomplish the same thing on a Mac?
Unfortunately this plug in is for PC only.
@@DJ2Legit007 what pc do you use/recommend?
@@Bitemwah I always recommend any leptop with at least an i7 processor.
Is easyKRM for PRO only or can you use it with VirtualDJ Home Plus ?
@@duoeljay8409 Pro version only.
Brilliant tutorial
Great tutorial! I have tried karaoke-version for my songs, but I'm not impressed with the quality. Do you have any suggestions on another site I could try?
Hi there. I don't do troubleshooting on this UA-cam page. You're welcome to talk directly to the developer of the plugin at this Discord link: discord.gg/eKCMsNG48t
@@DJ2Legit007 thanks for the response, but it's not a troubleshooting question. Karaoke-Verson is a song download site. I was just wondering what your favorite go to karaoke download site was. Have a great day and keep 'em spinnin'.
@djpaparay5724 Sorry about that. My comment was actually intended for another person. Not sure how I got that confused lol.
@@DJ2Legit007 No worries brother. I enjoy all your content. Every now and then I will comment just to let you know we appreciate you. Have a blessed day!
I’m lost in the first minute. He said to go to my master there is no master on mine. What skin are you using? But I can’t follow you from the very beginning. I’m using the skin defaults on virtual DJ. Thanks so much for your help!
Make sure under the layout tab at the top left, you are under PRO mode and not STARTER. Then you'll see a MASTER tab in the middle toward the right.
@@DJ2Legit007 thank you for responding so quickly. I did eventually find it a couple of hours ago. I had to change skins. I am on Pro I've been on Pro 4 years. But it just wasn't on the skin I was using. I changed to the default skin and there it was. Thank you so much!
Wassup DJ 2L2Q... I watched the excellent tutorial.... where can I purchase the easy krm plug...thanks
Glad you appreciate the video. You can get the plugin for free. The info on where to get it is in the description. Or give me your email address and I can email you the most stable beta version that I'm using.

In virtual DJ is there a way to create a book of songs that you can print out of all available songs as handouts?
Not that I know of.

Great video. Just one thing. I don't see SWAP. Everything else but Swap.
My bad. Yeah in this video I'm using the latest beta version of the plugin I got from the developer. The version you currently get from VDJ doesn't have the swap button yet. We're waiting for VDJ to approve it. Should be very soon!
Do you have Discord? If so, I can send you to our Discord page where you can download the beta version.
I do...That would be great. Thank you

@Michael Dworkin I can email you the most stable beta version too.
The download is failing every time I try to install. It doesn't even try to download the plugin it goes straight to "download failed". Is the plugin not available anymore?

I got it to work! Just needed to update my vdj even though I thought I had auto updates on. Anyway, I am currently having an issue where if I keep the holder button on & have multiple songs for one person in the working list, it adds their next song to the #1 position under their name & adds their name to the very bottom as well with a place held? If I uncheck the holder button the work list works fine but then new singers with no other songs in work list will get deleted! Needless to say I had 27 singers last Friday and this was a gigantic mess!
Another thing is not being able to customize the scroller at all. It just says "up now" and then lists the singers no matter what you write in the text box on the master video section
Great explanation
Hey dj 2l2q is there a way to purchase vdj with preloaded karaoke songs without a subscription every month
Unfortunately not.
I have VDJ pro Infinity and can't find the pug in under Other?
Did you install it already? You have to install it from the config tab - Extensions - Effects - Other.
@@DJ2Legit007 Yes, I found it! Thanks!
hello I'm not a VDJ pro user can I still get the plugin?
Unfortunately you can not. It's only for pro users.
where can I get this plugin, it is no longer available directly on VDJ
You can always download the latest version from the developer's Discord channel. Here is the link to his channel. discord.gg/eKCMsNG48t
@@DJ2Legit007 thanks
mine said easyitm is not compatible with this edition of Virtual Dj
Yep. You need the pro licensed version.
You have no tips about sidechain and voiceover for speech to lower the music volume?
Nope. I do it manually with my fader on my controller.
How do you generate a working list?
I explained it in the video.
@DJ2Legit007 Sorry to have upset you. I looked at the video 4 times it started from opening the program, then straight to how to use and move songs to the working list.
Undubsribe.
@annieclark2939 I'm not upset. I was just confused why you didn't see a working list if you followed what I did in the video. The working list is automatically created when you activate the KRM plug-in as shown in the video. You don't have to create one. 😊
@@DJ2Legit007 thank you
So when people are requesting songs, are these songs you already have on your laptop or is there a pool of songs that virtual dj has?
These are songs already on my laptop. VDJ does have a subscription based service with a pool of karaoke tracks you can subscribe to as well.
DJ 2Legit ok cool, yeah ima definitely play around with it. Preciate your response!
Are you streaming the music or is it on your computer/hard drive ?
Computer hard drive
hey i had no dog on my account so how do i add you !!!!!
ive got VDJ2021 pro infinity fully licensed and updatable. yet I much prefer Sax & Dotty playing out my laptop headphone socket.
No problem. You have to use what works for you. At least now you know what's possible with VDJ.
@@DJ2Legit007 I found it annoying that it kept going back to the beginning of an auto mix or folder list between karaoke songs.
@@stuartpaul9211 You know you don't have to work that way, right? That's the beauty of VDJ. You can create whatever kind of workflow you desire. I am a DJ first and a control freak second lol. Therefore I LOVE going to my auto mix folder between songs. That control for me is priceless.
They should add an auto-tune that would help with the off key singing
Is it the Krm plug-in?
Yes
I have discord but it says the link has expired
Try this one. The developer says this one will be permanent. discord.gg/eKCMsNG48t
hi, yesterday I did my first karaoke show with vdj after using dex 3 for a year and a half, I watched your video several times and it was very instructive, helped me a lot. What I did experience and was difficult, but I think the fault lies with me, 1. after having introduced a few singers via workinglist and then list I saw that names of singers had changed, wrong numbers with wrong singers. 2. in the video when you press the karaoke song start the mix goes very smooth, and at the end the automix jumps back in, I have karaoke songs that sometimes have a silence and then you have to wait for the song to stop until we have sound from the automix again, not pleasant. 3. I work in a business with 16 TV screens, so I don't use mp3 in the automix but video files. so the crossfader really has to go from left to right, 4. every time I open vdj I have to put every list back in the search list. how do I solve all this and which points in the options should I adjust. can you help me with this please
Hi there. Hopefully I can answer all of your questions.
1. Not sure what you mean. The numbers will decrease as each singer finishes singing. That's supposed to happen. Not sure if that is what you are talking about though.
2. Go to your karaoke settings, in the KARAOKE box there is a little dot next to the button you use to turn KARAOKE ON. Set the background music to NONE. Now you have complete control and no more awkward silence.
3. Under your VIDEO tab, (AUDIO, VIDEO, SCRATCH, MASTER) there is a little button on the bottom right side of your video window. Select "Video Crossfader" - "Linked to Audio." Now you can crossfade videos smoothly.
4. I have noticed this too. It wasn't always like that. I think VDJ people did something to it. Also, if you have a Discord account, you can join us there to get help. Here is the link:

@@DJ2Legit007 hi thanks for the reply; about nr 1; i'll take your example from the movie : so you have Justin - my girl , Regina - misty blue in singerslist the moment you bring Vivian - last dance from workinglist to singerslist by pressing " list " i notice that vdj put vivian in place of justin or regina or other singer in the singerslist singing their song and their names ( justin or Regina ) are gone, also vivian singing last dance is not in singerslist and also gone out of the workinglist , id their a treat for ???
@@ThePionier56 I just re-watched my video. I'm sorry, but I did not see what you described. In the video, when I brought Vivian from working list to karaoke list, it put Vivian at the bottom of the karaoke list. It did not put her in place of Justin as you described. Justin and Regina's names also did not disappear as you described. So I'm not sure what you tell you here lol. Feel free to join us at the Discord page for more assistance. :)
@@DJ2Legit007 no i take your example to tell you what happend to me
@ThePionier56 Oh no! So sorry to hear this. Something is definitely wrong somewhere and sounds like a problem that I can not fix, however I'm pretty sure the developer of the program can fix it. He's super smart. He loves fixing these kinds of bugs. If you could join us at the Discord page, I am sure he could help you.

No matter what I do, sometimes the new singer doesn’t get into the working list…
Thank you
You're welcome
can we stop the list on the background screen and just have our self made back ground
Yes
No KRM for Mac though.....
Correct
@@DJ2Legit007 Can you recommend any karaoke management that works with Virtual DJ for Mac?
@AaronWorley Unfortunately I don't know if anything like that exists.
@@DJ2Legit007 OK so now I'm searching for it under 'extensions' but it doesn't come up- I have Virtual DJ Pro version- and it's not under the 'effects' button as you show in the video- any ideas? Many thanks!!
Sorry, I found it under 'effects' but in the extensions window....Thanks for the awesome video!
doesn't work for Mac users :(
Correct. PC only.
It seems like easyKRM ads a lot of unnecessary steps.
You can also drag and drop like pre-easyKRM.
The beauty of this plugin is that it manages rotation. 8 or more singers and it becomes easier. Big difference.

Really greaaaat yeaaaaaaah, but where are the words? All beautiful but you need to go straight to the point man, still can't view the text of my karaoke base... WTF I've lost 25 minutes of my life
Lol! I don't do troubleshooting on this UA-cam page. You're welcome to talk directly to the developer of the plugin at this Discord link: discord.gg/eKCMsNG48t
Doesn't say anything about how to actually get a karaoke program installed... waste of time...
The karaoke program is called Virtual DJ. The plugin is called EasyKRM and you can install it directly from VDJ on the extensions page. If you need more assistance, VDJ has a great responsive forum where you can get help.
