Can anyone tell me the default mapping of the source buttons on the Hercules RMX? I think I've messed something up.

Hello bichiliad,

In VirtualDJ 6 Pro, the command mappoed on DJ Console Rmx Source button is timecode_bypass.

Anyone else have an issue with the playbutton on their Hercules RMX from time to time?

It's a weird occurrence. I'll be playing for like an hour. Then go to load a song on and hit play... and the song just won't play. I have to shut down VDJ and start it back up and the play button is functional.

So weird.

The Load Deck A or B will work. I'd like to think the other buttons work but I find it hard to know if they are... since the song won't play due to the playbutton and I'm not able to hear the button.

It's just happens so randomly.... like there's no regular occurence, etc.

But you can see on the VDJ interface if the volume fader, EQ or CUE Select (Headphone) change when you move them.

And so have you tried the other USB ports, like I mentionned ?

Also, are you using the latest DJ driver (v2.22) ?

The other buttons do indeed showing up as working on the screen.

I will indeed do the update though. My last udpate for the drivers seems like moons ago.

This question is about the buttons on the Hercules mixer, in particular, the PLAY and CUE buttons. Everything seems to be working properly, correct drivers, etc., but, I've noticed there seems to be a lot of play in the buttons - meaning that as opposed to the Pioneer CDJ's, which respond instantly, the Hercules takes just a fraction of a second to respond - and it throws the start of your mix off everytime. The delay is coming from the time it takes the button to depress down to the contact point.

This is very frustrating - and makes this controller not very useful for serious use.

Has anyone else noticed this? And, are there any solutions other than trying to push the button slightly ahead of time.

I recorded about 4 samples for loops. I set up the samples the exact way the default samples are configured (Loop, Match Pitch, BeatLock, Sync on Beat are all checked off) but they do not sync with the song that is playing. The default samples all work correctly. Could it be that the the BPM for the songs that I sampled from were not read correctly by the software?

This is not related to Hercules support.

Samples could be a little behind your press of REC is. So a good TIP to record samples is, press REC a beat before you want to record or a bit before, do some testing, you will find out.

If you need further assistance on this matter, please write in SOFTWARE forum.

Hi People !

First post and its for help sorry :(

Ok so I have a Steel controller and i want to map SHIFT (green lit) to loop_move with my jog wheel, not having any joy so far I'm guessing it somthing like SHIFT:JOG "loop_move" :S

Please help thanks

Andy

The action that you need to map is:

wheel_mode "loop_move,jog"

However, the SHIFT button on the Steel may not be a good choice for this - It is used to toggle the 6+6 buttons between buttons 1-6 and 7-12.

Awesome JP !

Just what I wanted, I can still cue with 7-12 and it helps that loop move is on to get the perfect cue (for me anyway)

Many thanks, I owe you a beer :)

i am switching up to vinyls and i already use the hercules rmx., i know i can use that as my mixer and just connect vinyls to that right? And what vinyls might be the best to go with? Also i realized numark has some cool vinyls which works nice with VDJ will that be a better option or just stick to my hercules rmx and add my vinyls to it,thanks guys
