Hello everyone, I need help on mapping my DJM-800. I want to use 1,2,3,4 Fader start as my loops. 1 and 2 would be for my left deck and 4,8 beet loop, while, 3,4 would be my right deck 4 and 8 beet loop. I mapped the left side everything's fine. When I map the right side, 3 and 4 buttons, it maps the left deck, which is already mapped. I tried to map the right side first then the left, but no luck. Can someone tell me what I am doing?

If you are mapping for specific deck actions preface the action with -> deck 1 <your actions> or deck 2 <your actions>
Example --> deck 1 loop 4 <-left deck and deck 2 loop 4 <-right deck
Example --> deck 1 loop 4 <-left deck and deck 2 loop 4 <-right deck

As I gave you above ... in the action box you first say which deck then the action you want to happen on that deck ...
So a button that I want Deck 1 to do a loop on 4beats --- > deck 1 loop 4
And if I want the same on a different button for Deck 2 ---> deck 2 loop 4

Hey there syberman. I have an 800. If you still have issues, I can do the midi map and send it to you.

I'm using M-Audio Midisport 2x2 USB midi box. I got 2x2 in case i needed to add another midi down the track but haven't needed it so far. It's been regularly chucked in and out my gig bag for over a year and have never had a problem.
My full gear list is on my page for reference.
Hope that helps.

I believe the crossfader you can easily map, but for the volume, you have to type deck 1 and deck 2 in the action box. Did you get the DDM4000 mixer?

Yeah I got it I even got it to reconize in VDJ as MIDI device. But I have read and read but cannot get the dam thing to work? all I want is to controll the software like the 800 will? I may just use the RMX as a sound card anyways since I am moving twards video's now!!!

Do you have a USB to MIDI cable from the mixer to your computer? If you don't have that, it will not work the way you want. When I had that mixer, I mapped so many things, I hardly ever touched my laptop.

Yeah I have one its a $13 one but I guess I may have to get one of those $30 one since the light never goes green? also I am taking the mixer back because I get grounded when I touch the edges? thank god my friend gave me the reciept for it before he left?

When I bought the DDM4000, I bought the M-Audio Uno USB to MIDI as well. I have no complaints at all with it. I am using this with my djm 800. And still no complaints.
