Feature Requests for New DJTT TPro2 VCI-100 Mapping
Feature Requests for New DJTT TPro2 VCI-100 Mapping Posted on: 07.04.2011 by Jodi Lacerra The rumors are true that DJ Techtools does plan to create a new mapping and overlay for the VCI-100SE that utilizes most of the new functions available in Traktor Pro 2.Although we have some ideas already, I wanted to poll the community for any features that you'd really like to see in our eventual new mapping. I will read through these and take them into account in my design discussions with Ean when I get to the point of physically mapping the VCI-100. So let us know your thoughts because there is a good chance I'll try to integrate them! For those interested in a version of the VCI-100SE 3.6.4 mapping for Traktor Pro2, please see this thread for download files and commenting: http://www.djranking s.com/community /showthread.php?t=28029 | |

| Chu Vacirca 06.08.2011 | I would really like to see the the new sample decks in Traktor 2 added to the mapping. Ideally decks A and B would be songs and C and D would be loaded with 4 samples each that would correspond to the trigger buttons below the platters. This would make me very, very happy. |
| Lizabeth Peight 05.08.2011 | @dafe "Successful businesses/companies manage expectations by aligning their customers expectations with their own. A lot of the time this happens through communication." very nicely put. Steep learning curve all round much? |

I was going to buy a vci se or arcade but have chosen another route. Lost my patience. Nothing more to it than that. I still love DJTT as I have purchased other stuff. Since Traktor Pro2 as been out now for like months you would of thought a mapping at least would of been developed as a bit more of a priority seen as though there are still quite alot vci owners. Just saying guys, doesnt make me a hater or negative. Im a very positive person. Peace |

Vestax doesn't manufacture the VCI-100 so it's not surprising the TP2 mappings aren't a priority for ranking s. Thanks to Ean and his crew for all the mappings/support they've offered up to this point. IT WAS ALL FREE ANYWAY. |
| Ned Somerset 26.07.2011 | regarding the money hungry comments. I sure as hell wouldn't be doing as much work as they do on a daily basis and not get paid.. |
| Ned Somerset 26.07.2011 | Totally agree with you Photojojo. Patience is a virtue. Too all the haters out there... Look how much DJTT has grown in the last little while. I believe they are far from being money hungry capitalists. Im sure none of the staff have much time to check all the threads on this community
, let alone reply to each question or comment. Flashflooder already said there is one in the works and will be released no matter what. If you are really upset about no new mapping for TP2, then make one yourself. That is the joy of MIDI. DJTT doesn't have some sort of magic machine that puts out these mappings, all it takes is time, planning, dedication, and patience. As for the overlay, big whoop. Does anybody actually look at the labels before they press a button. Memorize it. I could rock my VCI blindfolded. |
| Leeanna Ayla 26.07.2011 | They are working on one. I don't have any details, but I do know they are still working on a mapping and have not abandoned it. Frankly I'm a little disappointed in the negativity in this thread. Coming out with new products, running the blog, managing the store, troubleshooting broken Midi Fighters (that aren't really broken) and all the other day to day stuff that pops up with the limited staff DJTT has is I'm sure getting in the way of coming out with a T2 mapping. |
| Elida Ekenstam 26.07.2011 | hey DJTT take some responsibility.. tell us if this is going to happen or not? if not - buhu we will survive and if - a date would be nice?! |
| Lizabeth Peight 26.07.2011 | @Charlielederer.... Bloody disgusting really isnt it? It is now several months of complete radio silence, ignoring every single comment of concern on this thread asking for a response directly from them. They have decided to completely ignore us, just sell their new midi-fighters, and get rich off of the S4s, and outdated VCI-100s as Vestax no longer makes them. I used to sing DJ TECH TOOLS praises to the rafters telling all i knew of this wonderful site, run by a lovely bunch of people who really cared and were passionate about their support base and community, I now sadly believe they are just a bunch of money hungry capitalists who don't seem to give a shit anymore. A sad day. |
| Letty Holechek 26.07.2011 | Please, any DJTT member, don't leave us VCI-100 se owners in the dark. We bought your product and as you said the VCI-100 se was the controller that launched your site, so honor up and create a mapping for TP 2! Its been a long enough time for you guys to put out a mapping. If you don't however, you'll lose a lot of support from not only me but a lot of your original audience that made this site what it is today! So make the mapping, please!!!! |

They started out sweet kids on a mission to do good, and hard cash took their souls. |
| Britt Roback 21.07.2011 | Iv well lost patience. Not buying a VCI se or arcade now because of lack of support. |
| Aprizal Rustarmadi 21.07.2011 | yeah man my patience is up. i believe its complete bullshite to promise continued support and then not only fail to provide it but run and hide and not respond to questions and comments in these post that are months and months old. this aint the site it used to be |

| Yuko Armacost 10.07.2011 | It has been a little over four months now since we were told that a new DJTT TPro2 VCI-100 mapping will be available to us. I guess we might assume that DJTT has put this product under the shelf in favor of the S4? That is a shame cause I believe the DJTT VCI100SE is a much better product. Does anyone know of another party that has worked on a new mapping taking advantage of the new stuff in TP2? |
| Matha Obray 08.07.2011 | With the new update..when i start pitch bending with the jog wheel using the released mapping it pitch bends slow for like 3 seconds but if i keep doing it it goes into vinyl pitch bend mode. |
| Scarlett Saupp 08.07.2011 | _o |
| Letty Holechek 04.07.2011 | Hey, the sampler button on the vci-100 se is not needed since there is the sampler in TP2. That would be another good change to the mapping. |
| Lizabeth Peight 13.06.2011 | hey guys, for anyone who was a little spooked by the possibility being raised in another thread that while a new TP2 mapping will almost certainly be released an accompanying overlay may not, there is a petition thread http://www.djranking s.com/community /sho...570#post302570 for those who want to say it 'loud and proud' that they really do hope an overlay is still coming and not being quietly given a gold watch and shuffled off into a bottom drawer. |
| Aprizal Rustarmadi 26.05.2011 | any idea as to when this mapping may be ready? im trying to be patient but im chomping at the bit believeing about using those new tp2 features. thanks for any updates! |

| Marlon Esgar 17.05.2011 | Loving the current mapping, however, a few features that I am missing that are currenty in the S4: (don't know if this is actually doable) * BEATJUMP/MOVE LOOP: when no loop is active, the knob/button/whatever jumps the specified number of beats, if a loop is active, the loop is moved * JOG WHEEL BROWSE MODE: when in browse mode, use the jog wheel to quickly navigate through long playlists/folders |

It's a feature that's on Deckadance where you can use leap, rather than loop, and it will play 1/32, 1/16 etc all the way through to 8, 16 and 32 beat loops. However, when you then drop out of the loop, it will leap to where it would have got up to had you not used the leap section. It's a pretty nifty feature to eliminate dull parts of tracks easily as well as to create remixes on the fly. Also, with regards to looping features, it would be good to be able to utilise TP2's new feature of being able to press 'loop' to set the end point of the loop (as opposed to the start). So it would then jump back xx beats (whatever you select - similar to how normal looping works). This is useful to create cool buildups by selecting it at the end of a buildup, to then re-loop the build up section. Then, shortening the loop by halving it as it goes on, which shortens in towards the end point (not the start point as usually happens with looping). You can then create so cool roll effects by using the filters and echo and when you drop out of the loop it will be at the 'drop' for the tune or perfect to drop in your new tune. |
