midi mapping doesn't work at all (vci100) Posted on: 10.07.2010 by Meryl Waldren hey guys.we got a vci100 and want to use it with a macbook pro running with 10.5.8. the vci100 (right out of the box, no firmware update) is recognized in the audio/midi controllpanel and in traktor pro (1.2.6) i can load the latest mapping from djranking s.com but it seems that the mapping doesn fit to the controller, i see the midi symbol blinking in traktor if i push a button on the vci100. anyone an idea? greets, jacob | |

| Corine Kasman 12.07.2010 | Frank, it looks like your version of Traktor might be out of date. With Traktor open, click the NI or Traktor logo, the About window will pop up, we are at 1.2.6 now. You can update through Service Center, an app in you NI folder. You may actually have the latest version on disk, but the icon you use to launch Traktor points to an older version (we've all been there). Let us know if this helps. Phil. |

| Corine Kasman 10.07.2010 | Hi and welcome to the community
. If your VCI is not a SE from DJTT, you will find that the labelling is way off if you use a DJTT mapping. Ideally you should use a DJTT overlay and at the same time upgrade the firmware. What I did while waiting for the overlay was to unscrew the stock "plates" on the front and write the DJTT function above the button/knob (I started with a silver, if yours is black, just put a piece of masking tape and write on that). To see the knobs and buttons as assigned, just refer to the JPG included in the mapping folder you downloaded or click here. Also, photojojo's advice applies 100% for getting the TSI to work properly (especially the Port settings!). Let us know if this helps. Phil. |
| Leeanna Ayla 10.07.2010 | Are you using the big import button when you load the tsi? Sometimes it takes a couple of imports to get it fully loaded. Did you set the in/out ports to the VCI in controller manager? |
