This action will reset the duration counter and 4-beat LEDs to the downbeat of your music. The final step is to phase sync your visuals to the music using Vidjam's CUE button. Note that the downbeat in the music is then correlating with the zero-point of the LINK button. We will wait until the next downbeat and use that hotkey to align them. In this tutorial's out-of-phase example, the zero-point is not initially lined up with the downbeat of the track To line them up, use the “reset downbeat” hotkey which by default in Traktor is Ctrl-Alt-Space. Notice the LINK button phase indicates the downbeat the moment the line disappears. Now that everything is set up, start playing a track. A more typical setting during a real live stage or streaming performance would be 4 or 8 measures to give the visuals time to evolve for your audience. This will quickly move through the custom playlist that was created using the beatgrid and favorites tags.

We're using a relatively fast duration of 2 measures and a transition time of 1 beat in the tutorial. For music with a 4/4 time signature, set your duration in Vidjam to a multiple of 2 measures to maintain phasing throughout your sets. The final step is to phase sync your music with the visuals. Now enter BPM mode and Traktor’s master tempo will be reflected in Vidjam. Next, Add Vidjam to the session in Preferences > MIDI & BPM by ticking the Ableton LINK checkbox. This will assign the master tempo in Traktor as Ableton Link’s network tempo. To create the connection first enable the global section in Traktor, set the sync method to Ableton LINK and enable LINK in the global section. Once the connection is established, you can dock Vidjam to the bottom of your screen during a performance.

The same process could be implemented with other DJ software like Serato, Rekordbox, Virtual DJ and of course Ableton.
