Does he use time-codes or real vinyl? , do you use the mk2 as a mixer or do you use it in external mixer mode?
Virtual DJ Pro 5 has a bypass-mode allowing real vinyl to be used on 1 or 2 decks instead which is controlled via a keyboard-shortcut.
Alternatively if you do want to move the mk2 and the computer away , in pro , you can use the full external external mixer support and a ysplitter with an mp3 player to ensure the music doesnt stop while he sets up.
If he uses his own time-code Records , just disable the time-code on each deck temporarily , by pressing the time-code button on each deck the music will continue to play while he sets up his vinyl. Once its setup he can activate the signal again on each deck.
Why not check out the latest demo either way you will find it has many improvements for time-code, but please note like the console version in the demo time-code usage is limited to 5 minutes and if you want the full features of pro you can upgrade at a discount.
