VCI-400 tempo fader adjustment in Traktor
VCI-400 tempo fader adjustment in Traktor Posted on: 01.04.2013 by Toya Spor Hi all,Is there a more precise way to map the tempo faders of the VCI-400 (not EGE) in Traktor 2.6.1? Even with the tempo range reduced, it's difficult to adjust during a set because it moves in such large increments in BPM (you have to be reaaally careful). I find myself using the sync button to compensate, which works, but I much prefer using tempo faders, like with a CDJ. Does the VCI-400 EGE have this problem too? I tried a friend's Kontrol S4, and the adjustment is very precise and easy to do during a set. Is this because NI uses a proprietary HID protocol with the S4 that isn't MIDI? Can the VCI-400 somehow use this protocol? | |

| Alphonso Deitchman 01.04.2013 | What tempo range are you using at the moment? You could map the small square buttons above the faders to change tempo in small increments. |
