Well it's actually just being released today, as for whether it's sorted out the RMX, it's down to your personal opinion, me I don't think it has, but I don't really have any major problems with it. I've found a problem with 5.2 already regarding the Pitch bend buttons.

As I should in another post, whether it's a VirtualDJ problem or a Hercules driver problem or a combo of the two who knows, but it will get sorted eventually.

I've gone back to 5.1

thanks for the feedback,

from what i have hearing, ppl here were saying it was a software problem, hence the constant driver uodates and so forth,

and considering a pro like u going back to 5.1, i dont know if i wanna wait for 5.3 now..;-P

It's up to you mate, but 5.1 is still good.

You have to buy the RMX and VirtualDJ Pro 5.2 separately,

the 5.2 doesn't come with the RMX. But you will get a discount if you decide to download 5.2

It's a mid-range card. For beatmatching it is ok n good but not so for heavy scratching if u are a scratch dj:)

i was gonna say, i dj on the side, just to have fun and stuff, so scratching is not a big thing for me, i usually do beat mixing a lot,

hercules rmx and numark tt usb a good combination?

i am running on a toshiba AMD Turion 64 X2 mobile technology 1.8 GHz with 3.3 gb ram...

I'm a little confused on the postings. I just bought the Hercules RMX and upgraded from the MK2 running VDJ v.5.6. Is this going to be compatible?

The RMX is compatible, with any version of VirtualDJ from 5rev7 and up.

Today VirtualDJ 5.2 was released, but I'm not happy with 5.2. So I've re-installed 5.1.

So Fotobro, first thing you should do is to download 5.1 if you can and install it, then your RMX should work fine.

The biggest problem for me and the only one really, in 5.2 they have changed how the Pitch bend buttons function, for the RMX, and it's just wrong. I use these 2 buttons all the time, so it's crap for me, other than that it's fine. It's fine when I use my TCV/maya. But I've gone back to using 5.1 till they sort the Issue with the RMX out.

As cstoll has just said they've added alot more controllers to VirtualDJ setup which is good.
