vci-100se Deck Pitch only moves a teeny bit after inporting tPro .tsi

I looked around but didn’t see anything related to this…

I imported the .tsi for tPro and all seems well except that when I move the deck pitch sliders on the vci, traktor’s pitch slider only moves like a quarter of an inch. any suggestions? could i be stuck in a performance mode or something?

thanks in advance :slight_smile:

Figured it out :slight_smile:

Rotary sensitivity was at 33% .. needed to be at 100

:smiley:

This was how it was set in the DJTT released .tsi for tPro. I wonder if the file needs updated or if it was just something weird with mine?

Anyway mine’s fixed now!

My pitch barely moves too… Where do I find the rotary sensitivity setting?

Thx!

I’ve searched around, and I couldn’t find the option; could someone just explain where is that option? I’m sure it’s something we overlooked, i saw a few posts about this myself..

Its not a setting but rather a value in the midi setup of the .tsi file.

I’ll list the steps and attach some pics that should help if the steps aren’t clear.

  1. open up your Traktor Preferences panel, by clicking the button that looks like a gear in the upper right hand corner of Traktor - (step1.jpg)

  2. click on “Midi Mapping”, the last thing in the list of choices on the left hand side of the Preferences panel - (step2.jpg)

  3. scroll down through the list of settings until you find “Tempo”. There should be 3 entries, one for deck A, B, and C - (step3.jpg)

  4. Select one of the entries by clicking on it. This will allow you to adjust the parameters of the entry. At the bottom of the panel on the right you will see a section called “Rotary Encoder”, and in this section there will be a parameter called “Rotary Sensitivity”. Change the number in this section (which will be 60 if you are using the newest .tsi from DJTT) to whatever sensitivity you prefer - (step3.jpg). Do this for all three decks. You can follow the chart I made below or set it to whatever you want. I have mine set at 87, or 6%. 100 is 8%, which is the pitch range you would have on turntables, but I find that to be a little too sensitive for the short throw of the VCI’s pitch faders.

Thats it! Enjoy :slight_smile:

Sensitivity Chart:

52 = 2%
61 = 3%
70 = 4%
80 = 5%
87 = 6%
94 = 7%
100 = 8%

thanks for that tutorial ribs- I appreciate you explaining that.

on the latest update I changed it to 61 = 3% which is equal to the % change per inch on a techniques turntable.

No problem Ean, happy to help. I figured there was some kind of logic behind why the pitch was set as such in the latest .tsi. That makes sense now!

Too bad there’s no way of setting different sensitivity modes to adjust that value on the fly with a button. That would be a nice feature!

thanks for the answer, but I also understand why it was setup like that. Thanks!

Ahh man thanks this exactly what was bothering me the most. I just posted this question somewhere else I will link it back to this answer.

Thanks guys

Agreed! This would be a useful feature…

Nice 1 ribs, i was having same problem:smiley:

13

I had the same problem… Can someone clarify the benefit of changing the pitch to 61=3% ? I used it set at that value at a gig the other night and wasnt sure if i liked it. Im wondering if its just that im not used to it yet. I also noticed it was hard after syncing a song to another one to reset the pitch to the exact value to which it should be before the synchronization. It was always a little lower or higher and had to settle for that value.

14

To reset the pitch fader just hold down shift and center the fader- it will reset in the software once you pass the center click.

15

Cool, thanks Ean. Loving the new mapping and looking forward for the tutorial video and those arcade MOD kits.

16

i followed the above instructions but do not see any rotary encoder option. i imported the 2.2.8 tsi???

17

Then what’s Pitch Fader Range for?

The amount of the sensitivity setting you will use?

18

Nice one this has been annoying me

cheers:slight_smile:

19

can anyone confirm if the pitch resolution on this setting is 0.02%, Im looking for have tempo accuracy similar to a CDJ-1000

When I go to edit the Temp MIDI mappings, “Rotary Encoder” options are not visible, only the other 3 above it, so there’s no way to change rotary sensitivity. I’m using Traktor Pro 1.1.2.

Any thoughts, anyone? Thanks
