    Default timecodes and vci100se???

    Hey folks


    I have a quick question regarding upgrading my setup....

    I currently have a macbook, audio dj 2, and vci 100se

    I want to have macbook, audio 8 dj, vci 100se, and timecodes (vinyl). IS THIS POSSIBLE?
    I want to use the vci 100 as my mixer and have the timecodes instead of my jog wheels....

    am i making sense? i hope.

    Thanks a bunch.

    yes search for external mixing vs internal mixing, you're describing a situation where you are mixing internally using the midi controls on the vci-100.

    u should also get urself a decent mixer (for external mixing) so u can use ur vci as an fx/loop/juggle unit...

    i mean.... you CAN use the vci as a mixer, but everyone will tell you to go out and buy a nice external mixer. I dont scratch, and cant comment on the xfader on the vci other than the fact that it gets me from track A to B or D nicely.

    i think it's good idea, solves the 4 deck thing in another way.

    you have all the mixer controls there, plus deck controls on tt, so the pitch faders of vci could become channel faders for decks c and d.

    Yes this is possible. But also remember that you will need a copy of Traktor Scratch Pro....not just TPro. Else you will not have the DVS plugin and you will not be able to use the TCs. I am in the exact same position you are. Except i have the Audio 4. I am not sure the TCs will work via the Audio 2 tho. You can then use the them to control not the jogs. Remember....its a midi controller. You can set its hardware to do what you want. So you could set it to use the jogs for something else.

    You can definitely do this, and then set your VCI jogs to control something else, like effects
    It's the FAQ. Read it.

    No audio 2 doesnt have line or phono ins
    We don't believe in the star system. We want the focus to be on the music. If we have to create an image, it must be an artificial image. That combination hides our physicality and also shows our view of the star system. It is not a compromise-daftpunk
