vci 400 firmware/mapping/overlay/upgrade package when will it happen ???
Hi all
i would love to no when the vci 400 firmware/mapping/overlay/upgrade package will be released or if its going to happen
i would love to get the vci 400 EGE but dew to the extras tax, shipping, it goes up 30% plus i have to buy traktor pro 2.
99 dollars that is perfect for the upgrade i just want to make sure its definitely going to come out ???
Seems strange that you are able to update the standard VCI via USB but not the EGE one. Surely they’re they exact same hardware wise inside, just with the different firmware for the extra EGE functions?
I’d also be really interested in knowing one way or the other whether this is going to happen as it will very likely affect which controller I choose to buy. As per tbox, importing the EGE whole is not economical, however if I know that the EGE firmware upgrade kit previously mentioned by Ean will definitely be released, then I’ll go for the VCI-400.
Anyone know of an official update from Ean at all? It sounded like it was definitely going to happen a few months back.
ok it looks like i am going for the s4 at least i will have good mapping form djtt i would of love to have the vci 400 but it looks like it work out to be too much money for me this way i can get the krk 6 and the s4 for the same price that it would cost of the vci 400EGE thank you guys for the support
I’m really looking forward for an upgrade kit. I was hesitating between a S4 and a VCI-400, I couldn’t wait for the VCI-400 EGE and because I live in France, shipping costs and customs will have raised the price tag too high for me.
So I bought a regular VCI-400, hoping for an upgrade kit, à la VCI-100. It’s really a great piece of hardware, I’m happy with it. But there’s just so many things I could do with an upgraded firmware… The demo videos of EGE units makes me look at my gear as a castrated controller !
I would really appreciate if Ean Golden made a clear statement about the upgrade kit. Because I believe that the only difference (except the look) between a regular unit and an EGE is the software/firmware, because I think that the hardware is exactly the same inside, and because Vestax provide a firmware upgrade utility with the drivers (at least on Windows, don’t know for Macs)… Well, that’s a lot of “I think” and “I believe”, so yes, a clear statement would be really appreciated to sort things out
If you bought a standard VCI-400, I’d guess you might just have to wait and see with regards the DJTT firmware upgrade. Clearly DJTTs priority must be supporting they’re own VCI version through TP 2.5 and the Vestax standalone mixer firmware upgrade. I can’t see that happening for a little while yet. Why develop a firmware upgrade kit if it’s going to be rendered obsolete with the next Vestax or Traktor update? Common sense would suggest nothing happening with an upgrade kit until well after the dust has settled on the current updates and all subsequent technical issues considered.
So how about sparing other forum members and DJTT staff from daily requests on this topic in multiple threads? Just read between the lines a bit, apply a little common sense and take an educated guess.
hi nemes1s i have just got the Vestax VCI-400 Ean Golden Edition (Open Box) for 899$ at the store in dj tt and the total was 800euros with tax, shipping take a look in blow out sales but there is only one more in stock
Now that the stand alone mixer firmware update is out for the normal VCI-400, it would be logic for DJTT to release an update of there firmware to the mixer function. It would be easy after this to release an update package with the new firmware for the normal VCI-400
I bought my VCI-400 EGE for 600 euros. new. without tax.
call me a boss
(a friend of mine bought it in USA, and was using it for a week, after he bought himself a analog mixer and cdjs and sold me the vci for 600 euros - im the luckiest person in germany)
maybe never :-/ tried to get some information, too. but i didn’t find anything out… the only way to upgrade your vci 400 is to send it to the djtt labs.. they will do that for 50 dollars but you have to pay the transportation… so if you re not from the u.s. it can bee very expensive… i don’t understand that djtt just say: No it will not happen! then everybody knows whats going on… :-/
