I'd like to see the floating undockable effects windows be resizable again, as they were in early version 8 demonstrations.
As they are now, they're really small - even on a large screen.
I would also like to see effects for the sampler. Even when the sampler out is assigned to a deck, it's not possible use deck effects on the signal. The signal should be routed pre-effects not post-effects.

Further to grooves point have VDJ remember the position/size of undocked gui(s)
and have the ability to switch on/off all gui's that you have put into a undocked gui save file, (probably possible with skinning actually)

Delete this post I think I've found the solution
Loop roll, doesn't work as it did in V7, I can approximate it with the slicer but it's only approximate
In V8 if you turn on the effect it will loop whatever the last chosen length was, changing the loop length mean the effect is turned off when the gui button or key is released
but I've found I can recreate how it used to be with the X Y pad on the table skin
If the length buttons were also represented with a slider the length could be changed to allow the old style of loop roll whilst not changing how the new style functions

Hey Scott,
How about a plug-in that would fix only the transition plug-ins that are upside-down?

If chosen channels could bypass the master effects, some desired post fader effects could be possible.
Or routing effects to other channels, then proper effects chaining would be possible, then 'up to 99 decks' would be actually a good claim to make.

I'm loving the loop roll as an effect, especially 3/4, I find that often I am 1/2ing the bpm so it works as 1.5, could the scope of the length slider included that, (ideally 3 custom lengths would satisfy many wants {people wanting V7 functionality, upto 32 roll}, [I don't really get that either but each to their own]
(I am aware of loop roll mode but changing roll length screws the phase sync up)

For me, all that's missing really is having POST fader effects like echo out etc..... please VDJ Team this surely must have been requested many times......

Loving the new V8 though :)

Here is a workaround: activate Echo and then cut the channel's gain completely, it will emulate a post-fader echo ;)
I'd really fancy Gates_TekZK ported on v8 and Mac OS! (You can rename it Jobs_TexZK or Cook_TexZK for the occasion, hahaha)
LoopOut would be nice too

If the echo effect strength went up to 200% echos could rebuild from near fade out.

Similar to 'Auto remember -Gain" could we get Auto rember for the Filter knob? thx

@ohsh did you try renaming the effect dll's that don't work with V8?

backspin.dll rename it to backspin1.dll V7's backspin in v8
overloop.dll rename it and that works in V8
brake.dll also works after renaming
There are more examples
Not everything will work and I suspect atomix blocked the names of pluggins that don't work PERFECTLY with V8
Backspin and brake don't auto off when the effect has finished, overloop won't work when the beatgrid effect is working, but now I know the nuances I'm happy to use these unsupported effects
So there's a chance cut.dll might work after renaming

Beat Grid Effect. I wish there is a button option in the Beat Grid effect to set it to loop back to the starting point of the effect like there was in the previous versions.
I would also like to see the active effect highlighted in the effect slot irregardless of whether it is in the selected slot. I have mapped some keys to active specific effects therefore I don't have to use the mouse the select a specific effect. This was possible in the previous versions.

@Chara05 you're asking for an effects page, that isn't going to happen, you could set up a custom buttons to light up when the effect is on (just as you scripted your key), or you could bring up the effects gui when you turn the effect on
effect_active 'effect_name' & effect_show_gui 'effect_name'
Also the doesn't the beat grid CONT button do what you want for looping?

Why oh WHY didn't Atomix create all new Effects for VDJ8? I mean, the software is nice but here we are months after release and still hardly ANY good, working effects. They are all pretty much terrible.
Most of the effects just sit there doing nothing.
