Reply to FAQ: Mappings for the VCI-100

So, there are a bunch of mappings floating around these community s. The threads for each of them are pretty long and confusing for beginners and I've read more and more questions about the differences.
In this post I just want to summarize in a few words which mapping might be the best for YOUR VCI-100.

The features of the mappings are explained in detail in the specific threads (just follow the links).

You're using Traktor Pro 2.x (preferably the newest version available):
There are the following options:

• VCI-100SE v4.1 Mapping for Traktor Pro 2
  
  • latest official DJTT mapping
  • solid and well tested
  • takes advantage of Traktor Pro 2's new features, like sample decks
  • might not work reliably with firmware versions below 1.4
• VCI-100SE v4.1 Mapping for Traktor Pro 2 with old-school FaderFX mode (by klaemo)
  
  • based on the DJTT v4.1 mapping
  • only change: uses two seperate effects units for fader fx mode instead of only one
  • solid and well tested
  • might not work reliably with firmware versions below 1.4
• VCI-100 JogFX Mapping for Traktor Pro 2 (by klaemo)
  
  • based on the DJTT v4.1 mapping
  • brings the awesome jog fx presets of DJTT's NI S2 mapping to the VCI-100
  • not complete (4 deck support doesn't work well)
  • most likely doesn't with firmware versions below 1.4
• VCI-100SE 3.6.4 Mapping for Traktor Pro 2
  
  • official DJTT mapping
  • solid and well tested
  • was not specifically built for Traktor Pro 2
  • should work reliably with firmware versions below 1.4

You're using Traktor Pro 1.x:

• VCI-100SE Mapping (3.6.4)
  
  • official DJTT mapping
  • solid and well tested
  • last official DJTT mapping for Traktor Pro 1

I'v read something about different firmware version for the VCI-100. What's up with that?
The original VCI-100 came with either firmware version 1.1 or 1.2.
DJTT developed 1.3 and 1.4, which fix a lot of bugs and add new features.
If you want to use one of the newer mappings, I urge you to upgrade to firmware 1.4 as it will get you the most reliable results.
