I bought a new Dell laptop that has the Vista O/S.

I have hear about the problems with Virtual DJ & Vista.
What about OTS DJ, or PCDJ, Etc.
Those that have Vista, what DJ mixing software do you recommend?

I think the latest VDJ update took care of Vista issues (I could be wrong though).

Rockit2000... zero problems so far.

My only issue was with the "sliders" that look like knobs, eh Rick? ;) .... but after finally figuring it out... no issues.

First of all why did you buy windows Vista! Vista isn't going to be good for about another year I believe. I've been chatting with all the DJ software manufacturers and trying to figure out a solution to what will work best and am kind of comparing all of them.

As soon as I get an honest answer and know for a fact I'll let ya'll know!

Why Buy Vista, maybe because you can't really get a system with XP any more, its pretty seldom unless you get a special dealer who gets you a copy... At my job I believe we are still able to get XP

Nothing wrong with Vista, as far as I can tell.

Yeah, it's a pain to get used to the interface (or tweak to what you want), but core wise, not a heck of a lot different than XP. Most of the changes in the core are beneficial to a developer.

I haven't been recommending it to customers, not because it doesn't work ok, but because of the interface learning curve, and the fact that I have to support their OS, because the users won't take the time to learn it :sqwink:

Then again, I'm kinda like the Maytag repair man, so I guess I need something to keep me occupied...
 
Rick, I'd really like to try your software. Any plans on a Mac Version? I refuse to buy another PC.

That's what I thought too. Most all the new computers are coming out with Vista. My home computer has XP, but the times they are a changin'.

Why buy a new computer with old O/S software that will be getting phased out?
 
Here tell Ots will currently work with Vista as well, although it needs to be in XP compat mode, and installed under admin priveleges.

Haven't tried it personally yet, as I can't bring myself to purchase a copy of vista yet. No hurry as long as XP works so well for me.

I won't come in - never mind. Let's not go there.
