The Pioneer XDJ-R1 is also operating with the bundled VirtualDJ LE version.
Click on the Use Soundcard button to allow VirtualDJ to apply the pre-defined audio setup with the built-in sound card of the XDJ-R1. Speakers need to be connected at the rear panel of the unit in this case.
If the tailored XDJ-R1 skin is pre-installed, an additional button Change Skin will be available to load the skin, or continue with the default skin of VirtualDJ 8.
An additional Enter Keycode button will be available if the VirtualDJ 8 Limited Edition is installed.
Make your selections and press OK.
