The following changes have been made to this file:
Fixed SLICE and ECHO to set FX 3 & 4 to correct FX types and panel modes.
Fixed a bug with the jog wheel scratch functionality
Fixed a sampler + juggle mode bug where cues 1/5 would set FX3 to 100% wet
Included GUI Layout in this tsi for new users
Fixed a bug where Fader FX would get stuck
Fixed a bug where Juggle would stick
Fixed a bug where the pitch would drop dramatically
Changed FX preset #4 to match the recent video.
Fixed a bug where the LEDs would stick in the first 2 times traktor was run.
Note:The first 2 times using Traktor after you import the .tsi, you may encounter a few minor bugs (e.g., holding Slice & Echo together in Fader FX mode). These bugs will go away once you have closed and re-opened Traktor twice after importing the .tsi (you will need to do this each time you re-import the .tsi).

Requirements
You must have Traktor 1.24 or later to use this file otherwise it will not import properly.
To Load this file
Select the BIG import button in the lower left hand corner of the preferences tab.
if this is your first time loading the TSI file, please load it 2 TIMES for the fx to load properly.
The 1rst and 2nd time you run Traktor after importing a TSi file, the controller may lock up. Just quit the program twice and see if the issue goes away.
What Settings to Load
• MIDI: Everyone
• EFFECTS: Everyone (please load this file twice if you are using it for the first time to load the FX properly)
• LAYOUT: Only if you want the layout to change when switching decks from A/B to C/D. To customize your own, modify the layouts in position 1 and 3.
• ALL OTHER SETTINGS: Import these if you want the Pitch fader to be set to 8%, and for deck copy to work perfectly.
Known Issues for VCI-100 owners with firmware Version 1.2
• The “D” button in the FX section will not work as indicated.
• In Fader FX mode, the level fader’s will not “freeze” effects as in version 1.3.
• The Sync button for Decks A and C will not properly light up when synced.
Having Problems with the FX Route Button?
There is a file included that fixes this problem for windows users that are getting this audio glitch. The problem relates to Traktor’s Midi engine and windows. To solve the problem we disabled the FX Route LED functions. You can use the FX route button to route the FX but the LEDs will not display.
are some of the bugs you guys are encountering due to TOO many things mapped? I’m using a macbook pro and I also have two X1’s and use them for many of the functions on the VCI. Was wondering if deleted some of the functions mapped (ie: juggle mode and use my hotcue on the X1s) if that will resolve some of the bugs?
That’s a great question haze324. While some bugs are due to unforeseen instances of overlapping functions and modifiers, those are usually fixable once they are identified.
The bugs that have been giving us issues lately are related to users experiencing audible noises with functions that transfer large amounts of midi data (e.g., our Route FX function) and users experiencing inconsistent LED behavior. The most difficult thing about these kinds of bugs are that they differ from person to person depending on their computer and system setup.
In your case, I would investigate whether you are experiencing any issues using your VCI and X1’s together. If you do, you will probably be able to tell (via this forum) if others are having similar problems or if it is due to your setup in which case you could then start taking out overlapping features. Hopefully everything will run smoothly together though!
ok, i’ll try it out and see what happens. Im still on v 2.4. I tried some of the new ones and had some issues at first and have been hesitant to try again. I’m gonna strip from the VCI Mapping all functions I use on the X1’s and see how it goes. Thanks for the quick response!
just loaded 3.5.1 and the VCI did not respond at all. No movement from faders, nothing. Loaded 3.5 glitch FX and works with no issues (none noted in 5 minutes of use).
Followed instructions above, and I’m also getting no response from the VCI-100 controls. The CTRL light in Traktor lights up when I push buttons or activate faders on the VCI but it has no actual effect.
I’m running Traktor 1.2.4 on a new i5 MBP on OSX 10.6.3
Will be going back to TSi 3.5 for the meantime til this gets sorted out.
Has the fader fx issue ever been addressed whereby some people seem to have the two diff sliders on vci moving the same 1 control in traktor. I know it did this on mine but i’m sure the vids that ean show don’t do this.
Go into controller editor and under device select vci-100. Then select vci-100 under in port and out port. It might be already selected, but select it again. It should work fine then.
Its pretty annoying seen as its been mentioned a few times but i don’t think its even been aknoledged. Its been going on since the early mappings to. Does anyone know why this is?
played around with it for about 2hrs.. going crazy on the juggler and fader FX.. seems to work well
1 issue
after heavy usage the volume slider for deck A started acting weird.
When i pulled it up to max volume it would jump down to zero and start to fluctuate att the bottom.
I still experience the following issues with TSI version 3.5.1 and Traktor 1.2.6. :
Occurred once : After messing around with cues, FX and loops the VCI totally stopped responding, I had to switch the VCI off and back on.
Occasionally : Sound pops when I assign FX presets.
Recurrent : When used with turntables and timecode control, Traktor should automatically disable scratch-control when I’m touching the center of the jog-wheel in order to avoid the “fast spin” sound glitch. I figured out how to do it myself by editing the tsi file but it would be nice if his was implemented in the official one.
I also have a question : when switching between FX banks 1 and 2, shouldn’t there be other FX presets assigned to the 1, 2, 3, 4 buttons on the left ? Or is it only for the FX section on the right ?
Overall, I think we’re close to something usable on a gig, I tried it last Friday during a gig and I had the first issue described below but I was saved by Traktor’s capability to recognize the VCI after switching it off and on.
