Claude K's VCI-300 / T Pro .tsi - V1.1.... Posted on: 17.12.2008 by MadMan Ajms Hi all,I am starting to dig into the programming of Traktor Pro and using the modifiers and here is my first TSI. I have gotten most of everything I need to play out and running like Itch style, but now with FX. ..I made a lil video but have revised a few things today and will keep on modding to make this the best we can. I am using Mini.trans and all is cool, but have to say not as tight as Itch. So here are the basic commands.. FILES MODE= FX MODE turns most knobs to control the FX . The Eq's are left alone globally. Turn it of to go back to regular control. Knobs are: FX 1 TRIM (FX 1 Amount) CUE IN 1-3/OUT turn on/off fx and flip through FX banks. SHIFT+TRIM is FX 1 WET/DRY for all FX or use PITCH sliders FX 2 are controlled via Volume sliders FX 3 controlled via Platters and amount is controlled via MON SELECT (MASTER CUE KNOB) per deck a/b (flips between both when using platters a or b) (influenced bu Ean's TSI !! Maybe he can make better Thanks Scratch ON =SCRATCH Filter On &Off /Low Bass EQ= SHIFT + DOUBLE Turn on FX1/2 Deck a/b = (SCROLL+Pitch Shift small buttons) VIEW BROWSER FULL= BROWSE BUTTON (Toggs On/OFF) [Once loading the selected track browser window closes] COPY DECK= SCROLL + KEY LOCK (Deck A sends to B and vica versa) Navigation Pretty straight forward...up/down buttons goes through browser & pushing the middle button Toggs to the Treelist and same up/down.. Also can sort through tracks via holding SCROLL+ PLATTER (like in Itch) LOAD TRACK like in Itch..SCROLL + PFL A OR B.. SEEK = SHIFT+ MONITOR SELECT KNOB= SEEKs THROUGH A TUNE (not in FX mode) LOOP ON/OFF/AUTO LOOP- works like it should (Autoloop) but working on led's..(next version) SYNC-as it says... EQ's (3 band) are all there and trims and cross fader hmm..what did I forget to mention..those are the basic controls.. all other controls work as they are on the VCI-300 .. what is coming:To do list: -still many buttons left to control like CENSORs.. -CUE point's (1-3) on main controls.. -maybe better cue and play pause control - scratch over cdj mode but need to control pitch via platters too..(T pro update??) - deck mixing (DECKS C+D) -Tuning ENJOY!! VCI-300 rock it anyway u want! Download here; http://www.sendspace.com/file/b5s7cw | |

| MadMan Ajms 13.01.2009 | maybe this weekend 1.03 TPro will be released and no need for the MT. |

| Maddie Lagrasta 12.01.2009 | Got an error when put the preset.. HELP! |
| Maddie Lagrasta 12.01.2009 | Mini translator dont work in my pc.. Why? |
| MadMan Ajms 10.01.2009 | i will upload another this weekend. it should not be gone though.. |
| Prudence Buddie 09.01.2009 | Hey Claude, I just got my vci 300, trying to get everything to work i cant download your mapping, is it gone? Thanks! |
| Andriy Gavrysh 08.01.2009 | Alright, posted my tsi file... You can find it here: http://www.djranking s.com/community /sho...1875#post21875 |
| MadMan Ajms 08.01.2009 | yes, help out..put it online..love to see what you have so far.. we are all working here together to make the best tsi we can |
| Andriy Gavrysh 08.01.2009 | just wanted to know did a mapping for my 300, it has standard cueing in it (the one next to the play button), 6 buttons for cue points per deck and an edit mode where you can set cues... maybe i can help a little bit with the cue points? what exactly do you need? |

| MadMan Ajms 07.01.2009 | I still do not understand Pro's Cue system yet, once I get it, I will try to map it on layer 1. |
| Raymond Moguel 07.01.2009 | Thanks a lot, that cleared up all my problems! What translator program are you using, and any luck with the cue's yet? |
| MadMan Ajms 05.01.2009 | The buttons will only light when you use them..It depends what buttons you are using? I believe your midi settings may not be configured properly. I posted here some snaps.. (midi settings snap) http://djranking s.com/community /showthr...1144#post21144 (audio settings snap) http://www.djranking s.com/community /sho...1146#post21146 |
| Raymond Moguel 05.01.2009 | So I loaded the TSI but nothing works....Can you help me out, none of the buttons are lit up but the platters |
| Raymond Moguel 03.01.2009 | GREAT WORK! The effects really got me. Now only if only we could get a TSI with smart knobs and faders, now that would be the winner. Well keep up the great work, hopefully some more of these TSI's will be coming out, ehh EAN ehh So I was also wondering in your TSI, do you have the cue and hotcue's mapped out for traktor pro? |
| MadMan Ajms 26.12.2008 | that is a ? we will have to wait and see. I would believe maybe yes or close, but believe the software code may be an important issue as well. |
| Rocco Fiveash 26.12.2008 | So question about Traktor PRO and the upcoming update. When it supports the 14bit will the 300 be just as responsive with TP as it is with ITCH? I am talking about the pitch sliders and jogs. Thanks |
| MadMan Ajms 26.12.2008 | Yes, I like Itch too just for the fact it is made specifically for the 300, but I have to say the development of the software is really, really slow. I believe it is very basic, stable but tight...SSL style. I just wish we could get 3-4 decks going with it and some real fx and then this thread would not even exist. Maybe after Namm 2009, Ableton Live and Serato may unite and we may be reborn. |
| Cornelius Ziobron 25.12.2008 | hi guys im a new member to club vci 300. Awesome piece of kit. And thx for the tsi just want to try traktor pro out with it even though personally i believe itch has much more potential. |
| MadMan Ajms 23.12.2008 | Here is the latest TSI I am working on.. enjoy DDTT users. -I need help..anyone can get the led lights of the effects (off -position) when the effect button is off (FILES) is on, MOD 1/Value 0-would be great.. -also led lights that would show life when loop amounts pushed on. added SHIFT + LOW BASS knob controls the loop amount as well..one can adjust using the buttons or knob. Effect 3 is always on and controlled/triggered by the Jog Wheel (no need for holding SHIFT anymore to activate it!) Remember SHIFT+TRIM adjusts the wet /dry amount and MONITOR/CUE alone controls Effect 3 amount. enjoy & Merry Christmas CLAUDEK's VCI300 for T Pro TSI (needs Midi.Trans to work until T Pro 1.3 update http://www.sendspace.com/file/fnyhzo ....working on next a 4 decker mode and new control for fx adjustment |

| karl harris 19.12.2008 | Good to hear the Vci300 club is developing. been having the same issues with Itch as the rest of you only I have no time... so no mapping either. I am getting the KorgPad though. Seen the videos of Zabiela with it? Looks mean! Plan on using the x-y pad to control dry wet or even in the beginner mode with traktor effects. Would be very nice! Anyway thanks for the tks, good effort! |
| MadMan Ajms 19.12.2008 | maybe not needed as they are black |
| Andriy Gavrysh 19.12.2008 | actually i'm not sure if the knobs would fit... the problem anyway is that i don't believe it would look good, because if you paint it black and replace the knobs with black ones you still have the white faders and transport controls... |
| MadMan Ajms 19.12.2008 | Hey all, The VCI-300 club Good we are all working together on this. Morbido can you see if a VCI300 knob fits on the Korg Nono ok? I was believeing it would look great with it and a black one or painted. I plan to post a newer video later of my update. Cheers, C |
| Andriy Gavrysh 19.12.2008 | seems like all these vci-300 guys (including myself) are having the same idea i own a 300 and a nanoKontrol, didn't want to wait for the black version (didn't know there would be one anyways) - if i want to have it black i'll just paint it i did some mapping with tpro, but as my time is somewhat limited i didn't make any good progress so far... what i did right now is map the 300 to use the basic stuff (cue points, loop, scratch, tempo, ......) and the kontrol to do all the fx stuff and i also used one of the scenes for changing beatgrids on the fly and dropping hot cues. i really like your mapping from the video claudek, tomorrow i will have some time to put it through the test - if it works for me then i'll try to contribute some stuff as i am currently trying to create some smart-knobs (tried midipipe but didn't achieve anything useful - maybe i'll try the demo of max/msp or something)... if i could use your mapping and incorporate some smart knobs/faders i believe it would be the killer setup - there would be no need for the kontrol anymore well - long post, short message: thanks for your efforts claudek! |
| Lorraine Jansson 19.12.2008 | It sounds like you have exactly the same plans for your set up as me, claudek I am holding out for the release of the black version of the nanoKontrol before I buy one, it should go nicely with the VCI-300. The main complaint I have heard about the nanoKontrol is the plasticy feel of the knobs, so I was also considering swapping them for rubber ones. Do you know if the knobs that suit the VCI-100 (such as those sold on this website) will fit properly? Once again, thank you for your efforts in this project. Over the next month or two I plan to experiment more with custom midi mappings myself, so perhaps I will be able to contribute something. |
| MadMan Ajms 19.12.2008 | I was believeing of selling it too because I have been a little put off by the slow development of Itch. It seems like it will not be what I want it to be. I am only hoping that at NAMM Show, maybe they will offer some Ableton FX bridge and surprise us. So, for the mean time and for fun I decided to map Traktor Pro to my needs and honestly works very well now. I just have to work on cue hot points but a little confused on how this is mapped in Traktor Pro.. I like the 300 for the built in sound card, which is quite good and the unit is quite solid. I also like the longer, no indented pitch faders..Platters are bigger & Also, 14 bit midi. I believe will be in next update of Traktor Pro may even support this. Also, with for example a Korg NanoKontrol... (black will be nice with changing the Korg to black Vestax knobs!!) will be reall nice and even more knobs than its' cousin and be dope together. |
| Kayhan Polat 18.12.2008 | i have not gotten around to test your tsi yet.. hopefully this weekend. i was originally going to sell my vci300 but from your video.. makes me want to keep it now. the effects got me sold! i will def give you some feedback!! thanks again! |
| MadMan Ajms 18.12.2008 | added some scratching now to by touching platters. also Seek can be used Itch style by Holding SHIFT and platters. Cue /Play are now only on buttons instead of previous cue/play.. (simple and easy jammin'! ) very tight now on my Mac with latency at 15. http://www.sendspace.com/file/d41ym2 |
| MadMan Ajms 18.12.2008 | no problem..took some time, but always learning more.. Any ideas to make better, let me know..I am challenged to make this baby rock as best as possible. |
