Vestax VCI 100 (original un-modded) General help please. Hi Guys and Gals, I have purchased a secondhand VCI 100 (un-modded) from German Ebay. It was in a fairly good condition. But this needs to be flashed with the Firmware from DJ Techtools. I'm using Traktor Pro 2.0.3 as it is the most stable on my machine. I have mapped the basics for smooth techno-house genre mixing. The thing that worries me is that this unit is for example when I unselect the Viny Mode button on the right hand side this will tigger off a cue for the same deck after a few plays. Then I reboot it is o.k for a few plays then back to the original problem. In fact this seems to be happening to a few other buttons they send the track to cue.. the start. I would like to ask the community if this is one of the known bugs that the original unit has, also the right blue light (under the jogg wheel) is kinda a different shade of blue.... is this also normal? Like the left side blue LEDs are much bluer... (Strange) I have even taken the unit appart to clean it and I swapped over one LED form the brighter side but it still have made no difference. If I manage to get hold of the Firmware kit... and take it up to 1.4 , will this just iron out the bugs and give me HD jogg wheels and pitch faders? I DO NOT want to turn this unit into a crazy controller type of thing, thats just not my cup of tea, I want just a smooth controller to erm ... mix with and do a bit of backspin and scratching. I have been using Faderfox controllers since 2004 along with Traktor for all that time but I have only just decide to get a VCI 100 cus I wanted to have the jogg wheels and that wonderful crossfader....... Thanks for your time. Tommi | |
