You mention...
You don't have to reanalyse your entire tracks anymore.
Leaving the autoGain set at "Auto" will check the correct gain while loading, so no need to scan the whole library.
"Auto+Remember" may bring incorrect gain values when migrating from v7 to v8 so it was recommended from the beginning to use "Auto"

And do I leave autogain on auto? And does anyone else rescan there library after this? I'm still confused about why people rescan their library, will that help with the issue? Does that mean reanalyze???

The reason I keep suggesting to re analyze the library is two part.
I want to make sure all of the library was scanned.
I don't know if auto+remember gets compensated for if you switch back to auto without re-analyzing.
I suppose I will have to test that some time.

This is where i'm at.. I've been DJing with a PC since 1997. Im now carrying a system with 9Tb of internal storage, and over 600,000 tracks.
Ive NEVER done a full scan.
I have done the add to SearchDB, but as for needing the BPM and gain ive always done it on the fly and it has never impacted performance, not even on my previous system (Athlon 64 x2 2gb Ram)
I wouldn't recommend doing any full scan on a large collection or not even on a small collection.
As the AutoGain should be set to "Auto" then virtualdj8 will scan the tracks again anyway on load (even though a full scan might have been done previously)

I carry a ShuttlePC with 3 internal drives and an SSD. (2tb, 3th and 4tb (and 128gb))
Shuttle do a bag to carry it in so its road ready :)
Did anybody ask here in relation to the limiter and gain settings, what soundcard you are using??
I use the NI Audio 2 DJ (Which is now known as Tractor 2 DJ) cost bout £80
Though most of the better controllers have a similar ASIO soundcard built in..

I have not noticed this. I've noticed it do a scan if it was a new file that was never scanned, but not rescan on each load.
I assumed it went by the scanned value recorded into the database.

No rescan is required after changing the autoGain setting or even after changing the zeroDB setting, you just may have to reload already loaded songs for the new effects to take effect.

hey guys latest update no issues with limiter peaking after changes were made but now presents a new issue, for some reason now the gain levels don't stay where mixer knobs are set seems for time I load new song on deck the gains reset on VDJ8 so I have to move gain knobs on mixer past center part to catch correct level on VDJ8 once I reset it back to where it needs to be its fine till I load new song on deck is this normal or did something change that im not aware of?

Set "gainsliderincludesautogain" setting to yes
Then, 12 o clock is your "no gain applied" (parked) position.

Ok phantom but if I will require a slightly higher gain will it always reset to 12 o'clock every time I load a new song it's not a big deal but if that's the case so I know Thanks
