    Default VCI not showing up for sound card

    Not sure why, but the VCI-400 EGE will not show up as a Audio output choice on the MAc Audio/Midi setup and Traktor. Everything was working fine over the weekend's gigs and I didn't change anything.


    I have tried to reboot, reload and update firmware..nada.

    The controller seems to be responding to fader movements etc via Traktor, but NO sound card output.

    Please help.

    Thank you

    After a 3rd reboot it showed up.
    Question. When the VCI is hooked up to a PA should there be ANY noise at all?
    I have noise coming through the signal with out any music being played.

    Just seems like it should be silent.

    Yo audionaut, I've had the same problem.

    1) Did you download the new mapping for the EGE, that did the trick for me, because before, my Traktor would work with the EGE perfect one day, then not recognize it the next. So, I had to reinstall 2.1.2 every time. Also I picked up a DJTT cable, don't know if that means anything, but since I've gotten it, it hasn't happened.

    2) I do get a feedback when my VCI is plugged in through the 1/4 to my PA. Using the "balanced out" seemed to do the trick.

    Hope that helps!

    Are you running a cracked version of TP2 or a Full version you bought?

    Both lines are balanced from what I understand. However, you have to use balanced cables. Balanced 1/4" plugs (TRS) will have 2 rings on them and unbalanced will have one ring.
