VCI-100SE and Kontrol X1?? 4 Decks
VCI-100SE and Kontrol X1?? 4 Decks Posted on: 12.06.2011 by Willy Mizak Hey guysI was wondering if anyone has a VCI-100SE & Kontrol X1, and how well they work together? I'm trying to get into 4 deck mixing, and I just want more room, its a pain in the ass mixing more than 2 decks on the VCI -If you do have this set up, do you use an external mixer? -What other controllers are there that I could use for 4 deck mixes, other than the Kontrol X1? Any other comments and suggestions would be appreciated!! | |

| Willy Mizak 26.06.2011 | thanks guys, but i just realized...what about the allen and heath xone 1D? i believe its even better, i can map it to be a mixer for decks C and D, and still have a bunch of space to map other controls, what do you guys believe?? |

You could by another controller similar to the VCI, but then your faders would be completely separate from those for A+B. The only other thing I can believe of is get an X1 and map it to act as EQ/filter for decks C+D, then maybe map the browse or loop knobs as channel volume faders. |

| Tatum Ansaldo 14.06.2011 | Super easy. The X1 maps itself, and if you import a mapping it's just as easy as any other controller. I use the 2 together along with the midifighter and I've had not problems. |
| Willy Mizak 14.06.2011 | Thanks for the reply, can you easily use/set up the vci and x1 together in traktor? |
| Tatum Ansaldo 12.06.2011 | I have both, but I don't mix with 4 decks so I can't help you out on that front. If I were going to be doing 4 deck mixing with both however, I'd definitely want to use an external mixer so I'd have EQ, level and gain on all 4 channels. edit: and by the way, welcome to the community ! |
