7.2 BPM analysis
The first time you display titles in Virtual DJ, the beats per minute (BPM) are not calculated.
1
To analyze the BPM, right-
click with your mouse on the
relevant title. Then select
[
BPM -> Re-Analyze
]
or
[
Scan for BPMs
] for a group
of titles.
2
You can also analyze a
complete directory by right-
clicking with your mouse on
the relevant folder in the left
browser section and selecting
[
Scan for BPMs
]
Notes
•
Always run an extensive BPM analysis in advance and not during a performance. As the BPM analysis
takes up to 1 hour for 120 music files, it is no option shortly before a performance. Rather analyze your
complete hard drive in advance. You do not need to sit in front of your computer while Virtual DJ is
analyzing the files.
•
Analyzing your entire library is not recommended while mixing with Virtual DJ as the BPM analysis
requires a lot of processing power and you computer will not respond as fast as it should.
•
Generally, a BPM analysis is accurate. However, if a file is not properly analyzed, you can correct it
manually by entering the BPM rate [
right-click
] > [
BPM]
> [
Manual Edit
] or by using the button [
BPM
].
