Question?
How can I in standalone mode to set a different audio source?
Use Breakaway Audio enchancer (http://www.claessonedwards.com/index.php)
Winamp & VirtualDJ have the sound visualization with Breakaway Audio enchancer
In the Standalone Mode no sound visualization

Re: Question?
Start Aeon in windowed mode and right click on the screen, an options menu will pop up, there you will see audio input source. Mouse over and choose the source you want. If its not listed Aeon isn't seeing it.beatmaster2000 wrote:How can I in standalone mode to set a different audio source?

I would be happy to know if anyone has verified a decent working situation with VirtualDJ 8.FrankN wrote:Thanks, Juxtiphi! Anyone have any issues to report on the VDJ front?
I've stopped using Aeon because I couldn't get it (paid version of Aeon with payed version of VirtualDJ 7) to work in the end of 2013.
Before I buy Aeon (*sigh* again...), I would like to be sure that it works as video plugin in VirtualDJ 8.
I have gotten it to work myself, but if it doesn't work for you, write to me(through our support ticket site, https://www.soundspectrum.com/support/contact.html) and we can give you a refund.
Ok, remember that this isn't the place to contact SoundSpectrum directly, and that you should reach us through our support ticket site (https://www.soundspectrum.com/support/contact.html).
Hello syscheck
Just to inform you that I have removed the link to your website in your profile. We only allow SoundSpectrum links on the forum. I realise that the option is there, unfortunately we are not able to disable the feature. Hope you understand.

Settings within VirtualDJ
After a try-out within VirtualDJ 8 I noticed 2 things. I hope you are able to help me out with this, because I sort of unfamiliar with the options from the visualiser:
- within VirtualDJ it seems that you cannot change the options for the visualization. As a result it looks like the beats aren't really being responded to. Is there an option maybe in an .ini file to change variation in images/beat recognition?
- Turning on/of seems to be conflicting with an old visualizer Milkdrop I used.
In short; I think it would help out if there was a small guide available how to use the visualizer correctly, or manage some settings through a file.
Would be great for a noob like me!
By the way; G-force plugin also works straight out of the box with VirtualDJ 8. I'm going to see if the audio also works when rendered through an external soundcard/DJ controller.
If, with the help of the forum/OPS, I get this to work, I think it's a great extra functionality to use Soundspectrum's visualizers within not only VirtualDJ, but maybe also other DJ-software!
...(Or is it better to use the standalone functionality? Please help me out what to choose )

Hi syscheck,
Thanks for writing!
There should be a message when you start Aeon in VirtualDJ that lets you know that the controls don't work, because of some programming choices VirtualDJ made, and asking you to contact them regarding the matter. Does that appear?
The plugin definitely works with the player, though. If the plugin isn't reacting to music, then we should talk about that in the support queue, because it only pertains to your machine.
As for the conflict with Milkdrop, this is the first we're hearing about it. We'll try to find a workaround, but for now, you might consider disabling it.
I hope that helps! We certainly could come up with a guide, but what would it have in it? Something like the stuff on the page below?

From what I recall, after attempting to adjust visualizer controls on Virtual DJ 8 when it first was released (I have a broadcaster license from V7) is that as a user a message is either displayed or it is written up in FAQ sections that for full access to visualizer options and removal of the Virtual DJ logo that floats in the bottom right of the screen, the VDJ8 user must upgrade to either a monthly / annual / or lifetime membership.FrankN wrote:There should be a message when you start Aeon in VirtualDJ that lets you know that the controls don't work, because of some programming choices VirtualDJ made, and asking you to contact them regarding the matter.

So if a SS visualizer plugin is installed and selected from the VDJ8 options, one cannot easily adjust the frame rate, theme, roll the dice randomize patterns, etc: unless they pay Virtual DJ the moolah.
Another way is to attempt trying VDJ8 yourself Frank, as Virtual DJ 8 home edition is free to download, install and use.
If what I have mentioned still holds true then it is a case of a licensed copyrighted electronic product being remodified and limited in capabilities without the knowledge of the creator for the sole benefit of the software owner for whom the plug-in was intended for, re-used financially which is being limited in functionality unless the user purchases a digital membership from Virtual DJ at their own hidden expense.
Hope this helps, thanks in advance.
