Beginner, Possibly Very Dumb, Question
Beginner, Possibly Very Dumb, Question Posted on: 29.11.2010 by Desmond Bucaro Okay so I recently bought a vci 100, and it has the 1.4 FW, and I download the most recent mappings have imported them. However I cant seem to get Traktor to work with my VCI.I have imported the mappings to Traktor, but when I go to preferences, and controller manager and select the Vci100se 1.4 mac fw etc. and then click close, my vci100 doesnt do anything in Traktor. Then if I reopen my Preferences I see that my control manager has returned to having my device as Generic Keyboard. It seems that Traktor is not saving my changed prefrences, and so I seem to be permantely stuck on using generic keyboard mode. If I use setup wizard and setup for the vci-100 than the Vci is responsive in Traktor, but of course it is not with the correct mappings. Please Help, I just got this baby and I wanna have some fun Im not sure how to properly expliain the issue, so hopefully someone understands what Im talking about | |

| Leeanna Ayla 29.11.2010 | Great! |
| robin loo 29.11.2010 | good to hear you sorted it out.. |
| Desmond Bucaro 29.11.2010 | Got It, dont know what was wrong. Even know I had already done this I, unplugged it, restarted my computer and tried the steps again and it worked for some reason. SUCESS, now to procrastinate school work by playing with this all evening |
| Leeanna Ayla 29.11.2010 | What version of Traktor are you using? Tried different USB ports? |
| robin loo 29.11.2010 | does the CTRL light inside the traktor software blink if do anything with the controller? it's in the header next to audio on the left hand side.. |
| Desmond Bucaro 29.11.2010 | when I Import I get a pop with a couple of boxes with check marks next to them, four of them are checked and I cannot click the other boxes, the four that are selected are: controller mappings gui layout effect settings other prefrences and settings I then click okay and it takes me to the controller mapping screen of the prefrences section where the vci100se mappings will be in the pulldown menu, I dont ever get a popup asking for the settings you described and to your other question, yes the in/out stays selected |

| Leeanna Ayla 29.11.2010 | The reverting back to keyboard is normal, but when you select the VCI is the VCI still set in the In/Out ports? And just some disclosure on this thread. It's my old VCI, Audio 4 and Traktor Pro here so I know it works and the software is legit. |

The import option is in preferences. You have to select you controller in the drop down menu then import your .tis. |
| robin loo 29.11.2010 | it's normal that the keyboard mapping is always the first in the drop down mappings. is the vci mapping shown in the drop down menu? did you assign the in/out ports to the vci? does the midi led in the upper section of traktor lits up when fiddeling around with the controller? import the tsi twice and restart traktor |
