Download the Updated VCI-100SE Mapping (3_5_2)

Due to popular demand, the DJTechtools VCI-100SE ver. 3_5_1 tsi mapping (Download the Latest VCI-100 Mapping (3_5_1)) has been updated to a newer version, 3_5_2! This update has fixed most all of the remaining bugs, incorporated some forum user’s requests, and has added some new functionality to the mapping as well.

There is also now a lengthy and thorough 9 page TSI Walkthrough document that is included in the attached zip file that explains the basic functionality of the mapping and its features (including some new ones). A huge thanks goes out to pilmat for his huge help with the walkthough!

The following bugs have been fixed since 3_5_1:

  • Outer Jog Wheel now controls Tempo Bend in Fader FX Mode
  • Outer Jog Wheel now controls Tempo Bend while holding SLICE/ECHO buttons
  • When holding SLICE/ECHO, only the jog wheel of the Deck you press the SLICE/ECHO button on will control the SLICE/ECHO parameters.
  • Modifier3 would get stuck if you were holding Shift and one of the Bottom4 buttons and released Shift first.
  • When copying layered decks (A->C or B->D) the volume of the copied deck (C/D) defaults to zero now to avoid the volume jump.
  • In Fader FX mode w/Scratch off the Right deck, spinning the jog wheel quickly would turn on FX2 Effect1 but not release it, now it does.

The following features have been added since 3_5_1:

  • Shift+Filter = Key Control
  • Shift+Slice = Slice Toggled On
  • Shift+Echo = Echo Freeze (aka Echo+Feedback) Toggled On
  • Shift+FX Preset 1 = Cruise Mode
  • Shift+FX Preset 2 = Tree Browser Up
  • Shift+FX Preset 3 = Tree Browser Down
  • SHift+FX Preset 4 = Tree Browser Expand/Collapse

One of the requested features I couldn’t implement was offsetting the LEDs of the four bottom buttons (for non-Arcades) in Juggle Mode to differentiate 1-4 & 5-8. I liked the idea but couldn’t get it to work for those LEDs for some reason. Sorry, it’ll be looked into further in the future.

If anyone finds any bugs or odd functionalities with this updated mapping, please let me know (via this thread)!

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 1st and 2nd time you run Traktor after importing this TSI file, the controller may lock up in fader fx mode. Just quit and re-open the program twice and the issue should go 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.

Having Problems with the FX Route Button?

There is a file included (GLITCH FIX) that fixes this problem for windows users that are getting this glitch. The problem relates to Traktor’s Midi engine and windows. To solve the problem we disabled the LED functions. You can use the FX route button to route the FX but the LEDs will not display.

the pitch bend issue (the jmpin thing) wasnt fixed :disappointed:

good job anyways!

Great work guys!! :smiley: All of the new stuff seems to work great, but I’ve just run through it all once. I still get the pitch issue as well. When it happens it’s like the fader thinks it’s at 8% when it’s really at 0. It’s pretty random, but it seems to happen fairly often. I’ve started writing down what was going on when it happens.

I’ll play around with the new features and see if I can find any bugs this week.

from what i have experienced with it, its only an initial issue, so before i start i mess with it once, it jumps, then recenter/calibrate it with shift. does not seem to happen until the next time i turn it on

-gm

thanks guys for the input on the pitch/tempo fader jumping issue. i could never get it to jump when i tried to make it (i’ve had it happen before when i don’t want it to) and the functions in the mapping seem to make sense so i didn’t have any ideas on how to fix it except for maybe removing the tempo reset (shift+tempo middle point) and seeing if that would do it. If anyone has any insight on exactly when the tempo fader jumps (or a past tsi version someone uses that doesn’t experience this issue), it would be very helpful!

ill run some experiment in my secret laboratory tomorrow afternoon, hopefully my pesky sister wont come wreaking it again

-gm

It’s happened to me a couple of times even after I re-calibrate with shift. Before I loaded the new TSI I checked my in/out ports and they were set to all ports. I know they were set to VCI previously though. Wonder if that may have something to do with it?

The updated mapping is great, but I’ve found a couple of new issues that are near showstoppers for me. Holding down a hotcue, pressing either Juggle, and then releasing the hotcue no longer allows the deck to continue playing. There are 2 anomalies… 1) holding hotcue 2 of Deck A and pressing Juggle 1-4 will continue playback. This is the only hotcue that this still works with. 2) holding hotcue 1 and pressing Juggle 5-8 will start playback of Deck B and NOT continue playback of Deck A.

Reverting back to 3.5.1 resolves these issues and retains the expected behavior.

Chris, let me know if you need me to explain this further or send you another video of this behavior.

Having trouble with the zip file!!!

Please supply another dl location please!!!

same here using safari .. got it to download in opera.

juggle mode on 1-4 doesnt work for deck b

In juggle mode all of the cue points work for, but if a deck is not playing and you press a cue point and hold it then press the juggle 1-4 button it does not activate play.

More details:

  • Pressing cue point 1 on deck A and pressing juggle 1-4 toggles play on/off on Deck B
  • Pressing cue point 2 on deck A and pressing juggle 1-4 toggles play on/off on Deck A
  • Pressing cue point 3 on deck A and pressing juggle 1-4 does nothing
  • Pressing cue point 4 on deck A and pressing juggle 1-4 does nothing
  • Pressing cue points 1-4 on deck B and pressing juggle 1-4 does nothing, play is not activated on any of them.
  • Pressing cue point 5 on deck A and pressing juggle 1-4 toggles play on/off on deck B.
  • Pressing cue points 7-8 on Deck A and pressing juggle 1-4 does nothing.

EDIT: Changed the last point form “Pressing cue points 6-8 on Deck A and pressing juggle 1-4 does nothing” to Pressing cue points 7-8 on Deck A and pressing juggle 1-4 does nothing.

I’ll dig into Decks C and D later today.

This works fine for me in 3.5.2

This is EXACTLY what I described in my previous post. Thanks for making it crystal clear. This is all new to 3.5.2 and did not occur in 3.5.1

Info for decks C and D when in juggle mode, looks to be pretty much the same so maybe it’s an easy fix.

  • Pressing cue point 1 on deck C and pressing juggle 1-4 toggle play on/off on deck B
  • Pressing cue point 2 on deck C and pressing juggle 1-4 toggles play on/off on Deck C
  • Pressing cue point 3 on deck C and pressing juggle 1-4 does nothing
  • Pressing cue point 4 on deck C and pressing juggle 1-4 does nothing
  • Pressing cue points 1-4 on deck D and pressing juggle 1-4 does nothing, play is not activated on any of them.
  • Pressing cue point 5 on deck C and pressing juggle 1-4 toggles play on/off on deck D.
  • Pressing cue point 6 on deck C and pressing juggle 1-4 toggles play on/off on deck C.
  • Pressing cue points 7-8 on Deck C and pressing juggle 1-4 does nothing.

A few more things.

  • On initial load FX slot 1 is chained, not sure if this is intentional or not. After selecting an FX preset and clicking the cue button it seems to stay on advanced even after restart.
  • While holding shift and pressing copy to left, the track was copied to deck A while the track was playing and stopped playing after it was loaded at the designated load point in the track. This only happened once and I wasn’t able to duplicated it. I had just been browsing through the tree on the left when it happened.
  • When holding FX preset 2 and pressing either cue button it will scroll up the tree on the left.
  • When holding FX preset 3 and pressing either cue button it will scroll down the tree on the left. Seemed to load the proper FX and set the desired value when double clicked.

EDIT:I’ve just skimmed through Phil’s walk through so if any of this is by design please disregard it. I’m going to sit down with it this afternoon and give it a good read to try and learn something. :smiley:

Thanks guys for the specific details on remaining bugs/issues with this mapping. I will be working on it today and plan to post an updated zip file by the end of the day.

Please let me know anything you find in the meantime and for everyone else, please hold off on downloading these files until I post a cleaner version of the tsi.

Chris (flashflooder), can I suggest you post the walkthrough as a PDF? I think its easier for everybody (correct me if I’m wrong).

I haven’t tried the TSI yet, but I should get to it tonight.

Phil.

I think you’re on to something. I tried on each deck from a fresh start of Traktor and when I move the pitch fader the first time on every deck it jumps 8%. If I hold shift and move the fader even just a little then re-center it the next time I move the fader it works normal. So a temporary work around is just to hold shift and re-center all your pitch faders when you start Traktor.

As a general rule, you should always check ALL your knobs/faders every time you start Traktor. When you launch, Traktor has no idea where any of your controls are and either leaves them at the last know position or defaults them (eg. line faders).

My launch and unplug-replug ritual is to go through all the faders (pitch too and reset to zero with the shift). Press Slice and Echo on both decks and at least validate that the knobs in the mixer section equate with the GUI knobs.

Cris (flashflooder), we should add this to the walkthrough!

Phil.
