DJTT VCI-400 Ean Golden Edition Mapping (Traktor Pro 2) Posted on: 09.03.2012 by Jodi Lacerra This is to be used as the official thread for the DJ Techtools VCI-400SE Ean Golden Edition mapping for Traktor Pro 2. TO use this mapping, please make sure to be running at least TPro2 version 2.1 or greater to avoid any unexpected issues. The mapping was tested and created on TPro2 v2.1.2.PLEASE NOTE: The VCI-400SE (Ean Golden Edition) has DJ Techtools custom firmware on the controller so this mapping WILL NOT function correctly as expected with regular VCI-400 units. After downloading the mapping, you will need to Import the mapping into Traktor using the large "Import" button on the bottom left of the Preferences section (note that using this large Import button will overwrite all other loaded mappings, so please export your current settings first if you want to back them up). If it is the first time importing this mapping, you will want to go through the Import process twice due to an infamous Traktor bug where the Effect settings do not load properly on the first Import. You can verify if the effect settings loaded correctly by trying the "Gratify" effects or any of the "JogFX" and ensuring that the proper effects load (this can be checked with the Summary pdf as the expected effects are listed in there). After importing the mapping, you will want to go into the Controller Manager of Traktor's Preferences, select the DJTT VCI-400SE mapping in the "Device" listbox and make sure your In-Port and Out-Port are set correctly. "All Ports" is ok to keep if this is the only controller you have plugged into your computer. Otherwise, you may want to set the In-Port and Out-Port specifically to the VCI-400 to avoid any potentially Midi confusion between mappings. Note: The mapping and pdf summary should have been sent in your Shipping confirmation email; however, in the case you did not receive it, I have reposted the tsi and pdf summary to this thread. Should you find any bugs or have any questions regarding the mapping, please use this community thread to post your comments. Thanks! DJTT VCI-400_TSI_v1.1.1.tsi DJTT VCI400SE Mapping Summary.pdf NOTE: There will be a tutorial video for this mapping early next week. We have to refilm now because our media got corrupted. We will also likely shoot a setup video too. For now, after loading the mapping you want to move most knobs and faders to reset them correctly. You will also want to press Shift+Tempo Fader middle position (where the red light turns on) for each Tempo fader upon starting up Traktor. This will properly set the tempo range to +-8% (instead of 0% to 16%). This occurs because the default Tempo command is a relative command with a total range of 16%. Shift+ the Tempo fader is a direct Tempo fader command with a range of +-50%. This range can be changed in the Transport section of Preferences. UPDATE: See below for the VCI-400SE Mapping Tutorial Video I did recently. Hope it helps! | |

Scarlett Greben 30.04.2012 | Thanks flashflooder! works great! Looking forward to future updates!! |
Garrett Blachford 30.04.2012 | Thanks again flashflooder, you the man. |
Fady Soliman 30.04.2012 | Sweet!!!!!! Thx for the update gonna give it a try!!! |
Jodi Lacerra 30.04.2012 | I'll get to your guys questions soon when I have a chance; but in the meantime, feel free to check out the first official iteration of my Flashflooder edit VCI-400SE mapping here that I just posted: http://maps.djranking
s.com/mappings/166 I listed the main changes on the MAPS page but I'll put them again here too as follows:
I hope to make a short video for this sometime soon and also to make some further changes to modes/functions I don't really use (and there are definitely some others). I just wanted to post it so you guys could try it out at this point. If anyone has any major feedback, I'll definitely consider it for future versions. |
Charmain Liesegang 27.04.2012 | How do I change the LED output for the decks. I have changed the volume faders to have Deck A using Deck C fader and Deck B using Deck D. But I still get the A and B LED's on the faders. Thanks |
Ethel Saracco 23.04.2012 | Played my first live set with the VCI-400 EGE last Friday. Until now I've been playing out with a Kontrol S4. I'm also running a customized version of the EGE tsi. I had no issues at all during my 1 hour set. I'm super happy with the VCI-400 EGE so far. Here's a link to the the live mix: http://soundcloud.com/slak_jaw/frequency-4-20 |
Ethel Saracco 18.04.2012 | @flashflooder Can you please let me know exactly what the minor bug fixes were? I made my own custom edit of the original mapping and I believe it would be quicker for me to correct the bugs than to edit the latest version of the mapping with my custom settings. Thanks! |
robin loo 18.04.2012 | i finally received my EGE yesterday and tested immediately at a small gig yesterday. love it!! did a few adjustments.. like shift + cue is 'set to master' and changed the tempo range to 100% the slicer mode is pretty nice, but works better when quantize is off, will there be a mapping for the quantize button in the future.. right now i cannot thing of a free button where to put this.. also (as i mentioned before) i'd like a mapping for the preview player. (got to used to it with the S4).. |

Elidia Petkovich 13.04.2012 | I have no scratch functionality at all. I have messed around with the sensitivity and all that and have the jog fx working fine. Any idea on how to get scratching working please? |
Charmain Liesegang 12.04.2012 | Somehow let me control FX 3 and 4 please! |

Jodi Lacerra 09.04.2012 | For those asking about more FX and less sample deck controls and also for those asking about the incompatibility with some of our popular Midi Fighter mappings, I am happy to say that I am almost finished with my own Custom Flashflooder Edit of this mapping and will be posting it very soon. My mapping will match the FX layout used in the MF mappings much better and will remove all Sample deck controls with more FX control added in its place. Stay tuned for that. |
Jodi Lacerra 09.04.2012 | Also, I just released a mapping update (now v1.1.2). You can find that on our new beta Midi maps site here: http://midimaps.djranking

Leighann Kashat 09.04.2012 | Iv'e imported the 1.1.2 mapping several times now and still I can't get my right jog FX to load properly wheras the left one have no issues at all! For example: after iv'e been using echo and want to use the Detox preset, It loads the Swirl preset, which means I have to press the detox button twice to load it properly, which again is not required for my left deck |

On the Relative commands you will see that the Sensitivity is set to 40%, this controls the relative amount the tempo faders move in reference to the set Tempo Range. So, you would first adjust the Tempo Range (in the Transport Preferences section) for the range you want on the Direct Tempo command and then mess with the sensitivity on the Relative tempo command to change the range the Tempo fader will move without holding Shift. |

Leighann Kashat 07.04.2012 | Anyone else having issues with loading jog FX properly on deck B even after importing the mapping correctly? Haven't tried with a different USB cable, but it would unlikely be the cause. Plus: the right sample deck LED does not lit unless you have the left sample deck LED turned on |
