That’s a common 1.2 firmware issue

Common VCI-100 Firmware Questions

@EanGolden

Version 1.2
-VCI-100’s with a green sticker on the back are firmware version 1.2

• this version solved the ramp up problem but still has several bugs including
  * the fourth FX buttons send out the same midi message as the right headphone cue button.

Version 1.3
The firmware found in all VCi-100SE controllers that was designed by Ean Golden.

You can tell if you have 1.3 by following these steps.

1. connect your vci-100 to a computer but dont start traktor.

2. Click the button that is at the top right hand corner of the left jog wheel (its next to the filter knob for deck A).

3. If this button’s light toggles on and off then you have 1.3 (the same button on the right deck will not toggle on and off.

Here are a few of the changes made in 1.3

general improvements:

• Eliminated the problem where the 4th FX buttons trigger other buttons (cue)
• added midi in functionality to the loop buttons
• added a note on to the jog wheel in scroll mode

performance:

• turned the filter knobs into double knobs (0-127 on the left and right side)
• added a “freeze function” to the bottom of each fader and top of the fx knobs. this sends out a 127 message only at the end of the movement
• added inverted messages to the faders (this allows an effect to be turned on by turning the fader down- not possible otherwise)
• added unique values to the FX buttons (these were used for direct FX selection- now added in Traktor Pro)
