VCI-300 Mapping for Traktor 2 Pro
VCI-300 Mapping for Traktor 2 Pro Posted on: 19.12.2012 by Shawna Kordsmeier I have tried ALL the mappings posted on this site for the VCI 300 and Traktor 2 Pro, but non of them work at all... I am very close to attempting my own mapping, but I thought I would try the community
first. I simply want the functions to do exactly what the mixers is meant to do... I have been at this problem for months and months now... Anyone have a fully functional tsi file?? | |
Kellie Myrum 22.12.2012 | Problem is with reading MIDI massages for sure. Now I see why DJTT never made performance mapping for VCI300. |
Shawna Kordsmeier 22.12.2012 | They are both sending signal for sure. Encoder doesn't seem to work at all... You can see my frustration now... I have a gig this eve, looks like i'll be using itch again..... |
Kellie Myrum 22.12.2012 | Fader-relative was strange from beginning, using this type you can't perform longer nudges since you eventually hit 0 and 127 at some point. Encoder type should work as other VCI does. Did you try both encoder mode? Add another generic device and add jog turn (encoder relative). If still doesn't work make sure if side of jogwheel send MIDI at all. |
Shawna Kordsmeier 22.12.2012 | btw, on the mapping we were using before, they were set to the "pitch Shift' buttons on the mixer.. wrong spot for who ever originally mapped this |
Shawna Kordsmeier 22.12.2012 | Ok, so i got it sort of working.. There are no modifiers for it, But I believe there should be as the pitch bend doesn't dis-engage when the wheel is released.. I've this mapping soo close to being the way I need it. Frustration! It was tempo bend(X2 1 inverted, one not) - Fader/knob - Relative. I've tried screwing with the sensitivity and rotation but I was unsuccessful... |
Shawna Kordsmeier 21.12.2012 | Good idea.. Thanks man |
Kellie Myrum 21.12.2012 | Well I'm blind here. If you have replicated same settings I gave you it should be working after all. Maybe you should start new mapping and map only this command and see will it work properly. That way we can know if any of modifiers are conflicting this. |
Shawna Kordsmeier 21.12.2012 | I was curious what the modifiers do |
Shawna Kordsmeier 21.12.2012 | tried that. This was my first guess as well |
Kellie Myrum 21.12.2012 | The command is correct, I use it effectively. Could be strange to bi option but try to change type of controller in to fader/knob. I see a lot of modifiers going on in this mapping so that can be holding too. |
Shawna Kordsmeier 21.12.2012 | Jog turn seems to mess with the scratching too |
Shawna Kordsmeier 21.12.2012 | Yup, thats a given.. Still did not work. I of course learned the action to it as well, keeping the motion going until I depressed the learn button as one would with faders.. |
Kellie Myrum 21.12.2012 | That should work... Don't forget to assign it for deck. |
Shawna Kordsmeier 21.12.2012 | Negative.. Does nothing... I believe your on the right track though |
Kellie Myrum 21.12.2012 | Ok that's good. I want you to follow this path: Add in > Deck Common > Jog turn / type-encoder / interaction-relative. Then you can play with 'rotary sensitivity' to adjust rate for best result. |
Shawna Kordsmeier 21.12.2012 | If I knew which add in it was, I could do the learn on my own.. Just unsure which command it is... |
Shawna Kordsmeier 21.12.2012 | I had it working at one point but only forward. not backward |
Shawna Kordsmeier 21.12.2012 | Scratching works juuuuust fine. two jog wheels. deck a and deck b.. Ya just the nudging. This platter has the scratch surface and the side of the platters for nudging |
Kellie Myrum 21.12.2012 | To be clear on this, how are your jogwheels acting now? Can you perform scratching? Is side of jogwheel doing anything at all? I've look in to tsi and seems like scratching is mapped in but I'm not sure for nudging part of jog. |
Shawna Kordsmeier 21.12.2012 | To be fully honest, I have no idea how to do a screen shot |
Shawna Kordsmeier 21.12.2012 | here is the State I have now.. |
Shawna Kordsmeier 21.12.2012 | This is what I am having trouble with, Is it tempo adjust, or bend, or what?? Right now I have the map you were working on, and its set to the little buttons by the pitch slider.. I want them to be on the side part of the jog wheels.. |
Kellie Myrum 21.12.2012 | That could help as well. Or screenshot of controller manager with command and settings. |
Shawna Kordsmeier 21.12.2012 | Like export my current settings? |
Kellie Myrum 21.12.2012 | Good to hear! As for pitchbanding, can you make a screenshot with current settings? |
Shawna Kordsmeier 21.12.2012 | So far my mapping is going smooth as butter. All the major functions work like a charm except the pitch adjust for the jog wheels. I can't seem to figure that one out. One way I had it going, it would only pitch forward no matter if I was spinning the platter forward or backward.. any tips? |
Shawna Kordsmeier 22.12.2012 | Looks like I got those mapping issues figured out. Had a friend teach me how to create one from scratch. I am just running through it, but if I have any other questions, I'll be sure to send em your way. Here is the dj sets I mixed yesterday. Turned out great! https://soundcloud.com/ryan-stamina/...d-of-the-world |
Kellie Myrum 20.12.2012 | I know since I have created one for VCI100mk2 on this community
as well. Although that one was bit advanced. Feel free to send, I'd like to hear and if it's good I'll use it in performance video for my mapping. |
Shawna Kordsmeier 20.12.2012 | Indeed it does. You know your stuff mate. Can't thank you enough. I'm working on a 2 hour New Years 2012 mixed set most of the day today.. I have a deadline, but tomorrow my entire day is dedicated to this. If your into good house, I'll send ya a copy. Thanks again |
Kellie Myrum 20.12.2012 | No worries, there should be decent VCI300 tsi and it's 20min mapping really. Just make sure to double check all assignments. Also check with holding shift and see if unit is sending midi in other channel or with different codes then first layer. Most VCI does. |
Shawna Kordsmeier 20.12.2012 | I'm in, just waking up, give me some time to get on it. Seriously thanks for the help. |
Kellie Myrum 19.12.2012 | Found this: http://community
.djranking
s.com/showthread.php?t=1492 It's MIDI diagram for button LEDs for VCI300 from where I've found out the buttons and LEDs are not sharing same notes... If you can create full diagram for all buttons, faders and jogwheels I could easily create some simple mapping you are looking for by assigning all commands manually and then share it here for testing. I'm requesting this because I don't own VCI but being able to help out if you're welling to participate. Let me know if you're in. |
Kellie Myrum 19.12.2012 | I did double check and it seems that highs are not assigned to same knob as low is, mapping looks correct for that one. |
Shawna Kordsmeier 19.12.2012 | Also, play buttons don't work, and every time I touch the jog wheel, it brings the track back to a diff location about 3 seconds back. |
Shawna Kordsmeier 19.12.2012 | Nice one dude. 2 more issues, the gain controls the filters... and the low on channel 1 still also moves the hi's with it.. I'm troubleshooting the rest as we speak. Your the mutha fuckin man btw.. I play live often, and have a bunch of gigs for the NYE season. If i can get traktor to work right, you will make my job much easier

Shawna Kordsmeier 19.12.2012 | Fully positive.. This particular tsi has the issues I spoke of, and the channel faders are upside down, in that when u turn them up, they go down and vice versa... I'm not without skill, just the knowledge in this case..

Shawna Kordsmeier 19.12.2012 | I super appreciate your help, however your tip doesn't seem to be working.. I am still screwing around with it to see if I can manipulate your advice to work. This is the tsi I am having trouble with. http://community .djranking s.com/showthread.php?t=38223
