    Default VCI 100 Fader issue w/Traktor 3.3

    Hi,

    More newie posts here..

    I succesfully remapped the VCI 100 to my personal taste but I have an issue I havent been able to solve with any TKS file I load..

    When I load a new track into tracktor, say deck b, with the "b" fader all the way down and the crossfader in the center, the minute I cue up the "b" track the sound just comes out like if the fader was all the way up... strangely, if I move the crossader to the "a" side and move the fader "b" a little up and then down, I do not get sound out again... all come back to normal.

    Why is this? Any ideas? The same happens for deck a,b,c,d...

    Help is appreciated...!

    I have it set all the way for smooth mixing, not scratching.

    When you load in a new track does the volume fader jump back up to full?
    It's the FAQ. Read it.

    Not the fader but just the volume... when I load the track I have to "reset" the fader by moving it up and down and the issue is gone!

    Have you tried to see if this problem also exists on 3.4 ?

    I`ve heard so much negative comments about 3.4 that I am not willing to do the upgrade, with Pro coming out next week.

    BTW, Bento, u know Jaytech or Matt Rowan?

    I felt the same way when I first tried it. Especially when it welcomes you with a nice freeze if you have your VCI-100 plugged in when you start Traktor. But actually, it's not that bad once you're aware of a few things.

    Your options:

    1) Plug in the VCI-100 after starting Traktor. Then activate it in your control panel.

    2) Use Bome's free version. Have Bome's connect your VCI-100 to Traktor through Midi Ox.

    Do one of those things and you should have no problem with 3.4.

    It doesn't happen with everyone, but I have the same setup (except with v1.3) and I have that problem. Lot's of others have this issue so 3.4 has gotten a bad rep.
