Hi Guys,
because of Serato not supporting Big Sur yet I switched to VDJ.
When I start the VDJ I get asked, where my speakers are connected. My speakers are connected directly to my controller. But I cant select the DDJ-SX3...
I can use it as a normal controller and control VDJ with it. But it won't recognize my soundcard nor let me select the DDJ-SX3 in Settings>Audio>Hardware.
Has anyone had the same problem as me?
And if so how did you fix it?
Best regards
Niki
P.S. my firmware and my driver are the newest version and Big Sur compatible.

Looks like you didnt install the audio drivers, OR more commonly they got blocked by macOS (unblock the driver)
Likely the latter, since if no driver, VDJ will notify usually

After that, you can select the SX3 and will see SX3 button for quick default audio in VirtualDJ sound settings ;-)
One side note, if you use M1 chip, you must have the very latest SX3 drivers (VDJ works with M1)

Has anyone found a solution to this yet? I'm having the same issue as Niki2711 and have followed the driver install steps from the article. My macOS and software are most current. And it's not blocked in my privacy settings.
Update: I figured out the solution, you have to have the controller disconnected during driver install and then you have to restart the computer after install prior to connecting the controller.

I found the problem. After updating to the latest driver of DDJ-SX3, the Paragon NTFS software causes a conflict I guess, and DDJ-SX3 does not show up in VirtualDJ anymore. Even uninstalling Paragon won't help. I had to factory reset my Mac and install everything again, except Paragon. It works now.
