    Default vci-100 pitch control problem

    my vci-100 has been having a problem with the pitch control in traktor le. the pitch and bpm skip instead of progressing in increments of 1. the pitch is adjusting like 1.2, 1.4, 1.7, 2.1, 2.4, 2.6 and the bpm is adjusting 124.4, 124.6, 124.8, 125, 125.3, 125.5 and so on no matter how slightly i move the pitch control. i changed the "analyze bpm range" and am wondering if thats my problem or if something else is going on. im not seeing a pitch range setting i could have adjusted and tried reinstalling traktor to no avail. please help.

    The problem is that the VCI-100 transmits MIDI data between 0 and 127. This does not translate evenly into 8% or 4% (or any other setting). The only way around it, really, is to assign a button (or key on your keyboard) to do a fine pitch move so you move the pitch fader to close to where it needs to be and, if it doesn't line up, then use the button to perfect the mix.

    it used to adjust smoothly but for some reason its not now. what are some factory settings that would influence the pitch control/bpm behavior?

    What percentage setting are your pitch faders at?

    im unsure of where to change that setting. there seems to be very few adjustments that can be made in the preferences section. is there another location adjustments can be made?

    is there a way to reset back to factory settings or is it going to be trial and error to get it back?

    Factory default should be 8%

    You're using Traktor LE, not the Traktor Pro Demo, right?
