New firmware for standalone mixer use is out!

[shawnem]

Anyone else tried standalone w cdjs? I'm finding the sound quality is not great. Messed with the gain on the back of unit as well as the regular eq section but it's still not very full sounding. Thoughts?

with this mixer update the ege will become the most powerful dj controller in the universe for this moment.

Happy like a retard to use CDJs in addition with 2 decks of traktor power!

Here is the email response that I received from DJTT several days ago regarding the stand alone mixer firmware update:

The audio firmware update has been live for a while. Sorry, I probably wasn't clear before in that it's something Vestax did and works on both normal and SE models the same. You can find the download link to flash the new audio firmware on your SE here: http://www.vestax.com/v/products/det...86&parent_id=8

The audio firmware and midi firmware are separated so this won't effect the SE Midi. We just haven't written about it and covered it extensively yet because we are trying to get some firmware tweaks from Vestax and then will discuss everything when it's all ready in a post on the blog.

Hope this helps. Sorry again for the confusion. Thanks for your support of DJ Techtools, we appreciate it!

I also read this in the VCI-400 V2.0 Firmware readme file:

"The Midi mapping file of your software may need to be modified to avoid Midi conflict or controlling unwanted functions.
-SeratoDJ Intro : no change -Virtual DJ : Updated midi mapping to be available.
-Traktor Pro2 : We recommend you to use the TSI file included in the Firmware Upgrade folder,
downloadable from the VCI-400 support page of the Vestax website."

Since I have a gig in one week, I'm too chicken to install this firmware update for fear of messing something up. If anyone out there has installed the V2.0 audio firmware on their VCI-400 EGE, I would love to hear your findings. Thanks.

anyone did an upgrade on their VCI 400 EGE?

would be nice to get some official info from DJTT on this topic..

yeah, I just did. Haven't encountered any problems... everything seems to work just like it did before the upgrade, except I can run standalone as well.
