VCI-400 ean golden edition Posted on: 08.02.2012 by Shante Lemense Anyone know when they are coming out with this??Words cannot describe how excited i am for this. I have my money on my debit card ready to send to DJTT. I literally am on the edge of my seat every time i am away from the internet because im wondering if i got the email from DJTT saying it is availible, and dont want to miss it. So yea..... anyone know?? | |
Marylynn Kolinski 14.03.2012 | DON'T LAUGH. I DID NOT BUY THIS CONTROLLER FOR SERATO DJ INTRO. I didn't believe much of Intro until I tried it. Platters work lovely. I especially like the adjustable brake. Serato GUI is easy on the eyes. The color scheme and layout of the software is simple but yet displays almost everything you need. If INTRO let you save loops, it would be all I needed for 90% of my needs and gigs. I'm guessing INTRO was designed to give Serato away for next to nothing, and then let the users upgrade to ITCH (Similar to licensing Serato Video). Sounds like a brilliant plan but we haven't heard anything. I like Serato and want them to succeed in the controller market. Serato DJ Intro doesn't work properly with the VCI-400 Ean Golden Edition. The Firmware shipped with says 1.5.2. I realized DJTechTools.com modified the firmware to do "slicer" but I didn't believe it will cause some buttons not to work at all. Is there any way to go back and forth between firmwares? - 4 Clear buttons seem to work - 4 Hot Cues do not engage - 4 Auto Loops do not work - Cant get Key/Master Tempo to work with controller. - 4 Sample buttons at bottom don't work - Is there suppose to be a Sync button, because no button activates it. - Why is the headphone volume so low? Adjusting the volume in software does nothing. Traktor volume which is adjustable sounds just fine. - After 5 minutes, heavy static appears causing you to raise the latency above 5. I run Itch with the NS6 at 2. I also run SSL at 2 with the 68 and MP4 with no problems. I cannot believe you cannot activate a saved loop from Scratch Live or Itch. On a side note: I had a 3 hour mix session with Traktor a couple evening s ago with this controller. I cannot even start to comprehend the crazy edits, loops and effects I was pulling off. My Jaw hit the floor. I have spent years customizing TSI's, but never did some if this next levelness. |
Kimberlee Bosel 15.03.2012 | Played with mine for about 1 hour yesterday, big smile on my face. Overall, quite happy but I'm looking forward to some of the improvements to the mapping people are going to start attempting. I know people are going to squeeze out as much as possible on this incredible controller. |

Johnetta Olewine 14.03.2012 | i was just joking mate |
Emanuel Kepics 14.03.2012 | @kadeb ... thanks, good to know that's available but I'm going to try and get the official vestax aussie adapter piece somehow. @oliosky ... sounds a bit dodgy. Wouldn't like to risk it really but thanks too. |
Johnetta Olewine 14.03.2012 | or just bend the US pins on an angle.... :P |

Emanuel Kepics 14.03.2012 | Unfortunately, there's no Australian power supply adapter supplied. Any ideas where I might get hold of one in Australia without having to buy a complete new power supply? Looks good ... just can't power it up. Seems like a bit of an oversight not to supply a power adapter for the export destination. Hate to be picky but it would nice to switch it on. Otherwise packaging, freight and delivery to Oz was all good. |
Ethel Saracco 13.03.2012 | Was hoping the VCI-400 EGE would come with one of DJTT's new blue USB cables though |
Ethel Saracco 13.03.2012 | I don't feel so bad now. I'm not the only one swapping out my S4 for a VCI-400 EGE. |
Kayhan Polat 13.03.2012 | Would be nice if the MF IG Reverb and T3 Delay is in the VCI-400 EGE mapping. |
Kayhan Polat 13.03.2012 | Here are a few pics of the VCI-400 and the last few images taken with the S4 which I will be selling. |
Horacio Stranathan 13.03.2012 | Video. Lets see it in action |
Yang Dahms 13.03.2012 | Can anyone get some pics of their EGEs up on this thread? Controller porn! |
Emanuel Kepics 13.03.2012 | TP1.2.7 user here. Not sure how my system will handle the extra CPU demands of TP2. Might need some time to make the transition (reorganizing/restriping library, stress testing etc). Meanwhile, can I use EGE/VCI-400 to control earlier versions of Traktor using Vestax/Traktor TSIs? |

Kiyoko Hansey 13.03.2012 | I'm having an issue with my controller, not sure if this is just a Traktor setting. I'm mixing using the pitch faders and finding there's a pretty big latency issue with the jog wheels. One of the issues is when I back que the record, just getting ready to drop it in with the other song, feels like the track is drifting but my hand doesn't leave the jog wheel. I have the Traktor Bible which I'm reading now, I'm pretty sure this is a setting but wanted to ask as well. |

Clarissa Abecassis 10.03.2012 | Hey all, I've got mine set up with the .tsi file, and I can control traktor with it just fine. However, I can't get traktor to recognize mine as an audio device, so I can't output to it. The only option available is the built int Core Audio. Is there a step I'm missing, or do I need to install any drivers? Any help is appreciated. Also I'm running on a mac. Thanks |
Horacio Stranathan 10.03.2012 | Anyone have any video's of the EGE in action. I know Ean has one, but I want to see user video's |
Kiyoko Hansey 10.03.2012 | Finally got the EGE running, having a new born baby in the house makes things a bit harder. So far, being pretty new to Traktor I got everything running very smoothly. My only issue was getting the cue/master working and that was just a simple rerouting of the monitor output from the preferences. Everything else appears to be working, tested out the slicer/gratify/cues/grid. I'm not 100% about all of the functions but so far it's really nice, works cleanly and the jogs feel much better than the VMS 4.1 I previously owned. I also bought the Traktor Bible and will be reading this while I sort out my mix music in iTunes. |

Cliff Lohman 09.03.2012 | looks really nice.. would def give it a look if i was in controller market im really interested in how they integrated firmware to deal with traktor.. i havent heard of any other controllers having firmware that allows for such things as slicer.. is this the first? I know most things have firmware these days but it seems like this is the first to actually give u an extra type of function.. curious how this turned out and why other controllers havent leveraged their firmware to do these types of things.. im sure all who have received are busy having fun with it - let us know how it works out when u surface for air.. |

Cliff Lohman 09.03.2012 | Anybody care to post some vids showing the slicer function? Super curious how well this wound up working in traktor with the firmware upgrade.. If not vids, a written short review on this feature would be great.. Did it live up to expectations? |
Thaddeus Dalum 09.03.2012 | If any of you are looking for a great case check this Platt model out http://www.plattcases.com/product_p/2005.htm I used this for my s4 and will use it for my vci400 when it arrives. Its light, tough, lockable and solid build quality, runs about 130 in Canada. A nice touch with this case is the upper lid foam block pulls out easily, in tight booths ill whip it out and place on top of the mixer or decks and just place my controller on top of it, works like a charm. The dimensions are just slightly larger than your typical cary on allowance but I've taken it on flights over a dozen times and no one has ever bothered me about it. Cheers. |
