Anyone got their SE yet?

hey there,
just got my vci!! And you know what? I´m going to sell my cdj1000s
I don´t need them anymore... :D

To the guys that already have one:
how exactly does the juggle mode work?
All my attempts to juggle some beats remained unsuccessful. :confused:
Maybe there´s something wrong with the tks-file???
Another question: Do your FX-Buttons light up?

Thanx

Ned

I wish the FX could light up but there is no message out of traktor that tells the controller a specific effect is loaded.

In order to juggle you need to set some cue points (up to 5) and go into juggle mode.

I only got post from the customs here in cologne, i can pick up my vci here in the local customs-office. i don´t know how that works, does anyone know more about customs and taxes germany?!

are there any other european buyers in the forum who got mail from their local customs-office or who is a little bit more experienced in customs?

I am living in Germany too and I am still waiting to get a notice that my VCI arrived. I really hope we will not have to pay that much duty / tax...

It says on USPS that the controller has been in the UK since the 3rd June, anyone know how long it normally takes to get things through customs?

Hi Ase,

I'm also living in Germany. What you should give them when you pick up your SE (lucky you, I gotta wait for the 2nd batch :P) is the TARIC code which helps them pick the "right" customs and taxation rate for your import (I think there have been some posts on this before *and*I think Ean put the TARIC code on the box). If that doesn't help, you could print out the following and bring it with you:

http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs...escription=yes

This is the code for "other input device". Just make sure they know it doesn't contain *any* audio functionality, as this is charged extra. Some nosey inspectors, will want you to unbox the device, don't be surprised.

What you have to pay there is:

Price of VCI + shipping/handling * customs rate (0%) = Nothing :-)
Price of VCI + shipping/handling * VAT rate (19%) = Do the math yourself ^^

So bring some cash :-)

HTH,
Mat

I still haven't received mine either. It's arrived in belgium on monday, but no news at all....

in the UK are these not classed as mixing decks?
in which case you 3.7% tax, plus 17.5% VAT

http://customs.hmrc.gov.uk/channelsP...yType=document

They should be classed as USB devices, not mixing decks. No audio or video passes through the unit, it's technically an advanced mouse!

hey guys, thx for your quick responses. Tomorrow morning i will go to the customs-office and try my best to explain them that the SE is no Audio-Device but just a usb-Controller. I´ll let you know the results :)
