Make sure you have your sound configured correctly as described in this guide http://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/VMS4%20/%20VMS4.1.html
You will note that the mixer section is anolog and not MIDI. That is why you won't see the eq or volume faders move on screen.
I'm not sure what you mean about the led lights but if you are concerned about the updated drivers then go here to update them http://www.adjaudio.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ItemNumber=1478&MainId=1&Category=23

as said before...mixer of this controller is analog....
there a fake commands for Crossfader, volume fader and the eq´s
there are NO fake commands for the gains
FW 5.11 is ok
are your shure that there is no funktion of the master out knob on your controller ....?

thanks lot ! danielsr2006 yes mostly its configured correctly as mentioned on the link,
# i do see EQ buttons moving on the software except the gain buttons for all channel dont move at all but do respond to the hardware.
# hardware's master volume knob does not work at all, i have to use mouse to minimize/maximize inside software.
#at power-on i see 5 led lights on the left side and 11 on the right side , i read on the web that it refers to firmware version?
thanks lot ! cheers

Thanks lot ! RobRoy,
i fell relief that FW 5.11 is ok !!
yes the master volume knob of the hardware does not function at all, but when i use mouse and control it via software to minimize/maximize master volume it works. do u think it is still not a major problem ?
thanks lot !! cheers

What you do not seem to realise is that when you are using a real mixer, there is no need for the "pretend" mixer on the computer screen.
The only functions needed from the software are the ones that the hardware (your VMS4.1) cannot do. Library browser, display of track details and so on. The mixer on screen is only necessary if you do not have a real mixer & need to use the mouse.
You say the VMS4.1 master volume does not work. Do you have the VMS4.1 master output sockets connected to an amplifier & speakers (or powered speakers)?
