sorry about this man. i realize i have kinda dropped the ball in terms of bringing the vci-100 one last overlay and i still want to make it happen. i have a partially done file and am going to try to finish it this weekend so i can get it approved by ean early next week.

i honestly have zero time to do any mapping stuff at work because of all the other roles i've taken over but i am committed to getting it done (and if spending an hour on this forum after a 13hr work day isn't proof, then i don't know what is) and i realize that every day/week that passes it becomes less relevant and upsets all you dedicated guys more. anyways, i hope to have some good news regarding an overlay for you guys soon.

lastly, i have started fixing the bugs on this mapping and just need to get hold of an SE (I have an arcade and forget they are even there) to test the LED stuff (hopefully tmrw). i just fixed the faderfx scratch off FX unit1 activation issue, what are the other bugs you guys are experiencing?

oh yeah and there's the reverse grain fx preset1 in fader fx mode with the fader all the way down issue where it doesn't sound the same (i think noleftturn brought it up intially). this is a weird traktor bug i've never fully understood where sometimes there is a delay to when the reverse grain kicks in.

you'll notice that this happens in the mapping; but, when in fader fx mode and moving the fader down but not all the way to the bottom if you manually click on the reverse grain effect on your mouse it will trigger instantly. and if you use the fader to trigger it right after this it will work instantly also. however, after you move that fader up to the top and then try to move it back down, you will have the issue again.

what i've deduced from this is that the first time you trigger (with MIDI) a chained reverse grain effect after just activating an FX unit on a deck there will be a delay which only happens once until you deactivate the FX unit on that deck and then the issue will repeat again. it's very strange.

another question (i'm on a roll), do any of you guys use the shift+jog wheel functionality to set cue points on the fly?

i've personally always disliked this because you can't really do it without slowing the song (in scratch mode) or pitch bending (with scratch off). i have a better idea for how to use that but want to make sure i'm not taking away functionality ppl actually use.

yea. sounds good

thanks for your efforts!!!
really looking forward to a new overlay as the old one is cracking up.

i personally never used shift+jog wheel to set cue points!

No mate I personally don't use the shift button and jog wheel to set cue points. are you going to map it instead to search through the song faster?

It's really nice to see you're putting the effort in!

Thanks

Joe.

I've used it, but not while tracks are playing back.
I use it to prep new tracks loaded into the library.
That said, I think losing this function is not a big deal, cause I also use the keyboard to assign cue point 1-4 as well (or the midi-fighter).

Like others have said, I think Song Scroll would be wise replacement here.
