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! | |
Pablo Lazarczyk 13.03.2012 | Is anyone else having a problem where when using shift and the tempo fader on deck A, not only does it change the tempo for deck A but also controls the volume for deck B? On top of that, the volume fader on deck A starts a song on deck B when you slide the fader upwards from the off position. Any ideas on why this might be happening, and/or what I could do to resolve these issues within the mapping? |
Emmanuel Valmont 13.03.2012 | Hey does anyone know how to delete samples from the sample deck? or have a sample stop instead of muting? Was this even included? I sure hope so! |

The sensitivities in the Tempo mapping lines dictate how much of the set Tempo Range is controlled. |

Otherwise I did find a few occasions when the touch sensor wouldn't notice if I touched the jog wheel lightly and quickly. As for the Vinyl button, this is just changing the jog wheels from scratching to simply pitch bending. So if you press the Vinyl button such that the LED is off, that means the jog wheels will not scratch (which can be helpful in bass heavy situations if it makes your jog wheels shake). JogFX will still work with the Vinyl mode on or off. |
Dagmar Oblock 13.03.2012 | so the mapping will not work with the regular vci 400 I would need the firmware from the SE, is there a way to get it?? |
Merry Piesik 13.03.2012 | I was having issues getting my jogs to work right, but I loosened them and turned the jog sensitivity knobs ALMOST all of the way up. ***For some reason on mine, If I turn them all of the way up (to the right), the decks don't work at all and won't play.... but if I turn the knobs slightly to the left then they work well. The jog fx are great and vinyl mode is working for me now... however, for some reason when I load a new track into Deck B it loads with the delay freeze turned on and I have to manually turn it off before I can hear the track. It's like the jog fx get stuck on somehow. I've toggled the buttons, pressed/released the platter, etc. but can't seem to troubleshoot why that is happening. Has anyone else had any issues with a new track being loaded but Traktor applying a delay freeze so it is muted? |
Karen Riedman 12.03.2012 | Got my VCI-400/Golden today. I had very low headphone output. In traktor I noticed the volume know on the vci did not turn the volume knob in traktor. Manual turn the volume in traktor up as a master, then us the vci to control your levels. Almost blow the headphones off my head. Damn loud now! I can get scratch/jog wheel to work yet. |
Taina Draffin 12.03.2012 | My pitch control is very limited, is there a way to regain my pitch control back to it's normal standard +/- 8%? Thank you. |

Tillie Sliman 12.03.2012 | I have the same issue with the JogFX, I only had about 30 min to play around with it though everything else seems to be running smoothly except cuing doesn't produce any sound in my phones, but that might just be routing. Also, does the output volume seem low to anyone else? I turn it up on the VCI and both it and Traktor say it's clipping, though that doesn't really mean anything from a gain staging perspective... |

Leeanna Ayla 10.03.2012 | is there anything with the firmware that will hinder me from remapping things like the effects? I don't use beatmasher and have a few go to effects combos that I like to use. |
Merry Piesik 10.03.2012 | I am having issues getting my jog wheels to work. The jogfx are definitely messed up. When I turn them I can see which effects they are controlling/changing but the effects groups aren't turning on. If I toggle the vinyl button on/off that seems to turn them on/off sometimes. Is this supposed to happen? None of the jogfx are working right. For example, the echo definitely doesn't toggle on/off the echo freeze when pressing and releasing the jog. Also, should I be able to scratch and/or seek forward and backward in a track by spinning the jogwheels? Because mine definitely aren't working properly if so. I've tried loosening them but that hasn't helped. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this unit but this is driving me nuts. Once I get these jogs working properly I will be ecstatic. If anyone can tell me what I should do I'd appreciate it. Thanks! |
robin loo 10.03.2012 | unfortunately only few controls work with normal units and they are partly messed up too EQs, Gain, volume fader, filter browse knob (toggle window does not work), load, sync fx select fx section (one minute they worked, then i changed something now they dont) loop recorder (PFL buttons get selected too though) play, cue Loopmove/length encoder section (setting loop does not work) the rest is really messed up.. |
Andra Demin 10.03.2012 | awsome! thx! |
Doug Matava 10.03.2012 | tried it on the normal vci400. Did not work |
