hi guys and girls,
just got my TCV through the post and cant get the thing to work at all, ive got 2 technics 1210's running through a technics dx1200 mixer, with the time coded vinyl running through the line part of the mixer (B channel). Now ive got it connected to my laptop into the microphone with the vinyl playing, but the menu is still stating that it is silent, therefore i cant get it to work.
Need help with this as im really excited and this is like having a present which youre unable to open!
thanks
benji

First your problem is that TimeCode requires a STEREO input, you are trying to use the Microphone input which is MONO.
Visit this thread for help on proper TimeCode Setup: http://www.virtualdj.com/forum/display.html?topic=13647
And spend sometime searching the forums. If you continue to have configuration problems please feel free to post the specifics of your problems back here.
Also, if you have purchased VDJ, please register your software in your profile.
If you are currently running the trial version, remember you can only setup 1 TT.
If you are running a crack, then your struggles won't end and you should buy a full version.

Again, take a look at the link I provided. Your wiring is currently the problem.
You don't plug the TT into the mixer. Your TT signal must go to the PC, then the PCs output to the mixer. Again, spend sometime at the link I provided.
Also, please use your PC and register your full version. It will open a huge door of information and help.

I cant work it out still mate with your guide.
Where is the wiring wrong exactly?
Left deck plugged into A side of deck in phono, earth connected to earth point on mixer
Right deck plugged into B side of deck in phono, earth not connected
Red and white connected into the phono of the B side mixer, mini jack of that lead into the line in point.
what is wrong with the wiring as im getting really annoyed with it and dont want it to be a waste of money :(
the pc is currently being repaired! so i cant get any of my files regarding my virtualDJ to register it.

Sorry about the miss post, I used an illegal character and the post messed up... anyhow...
The simple answer is that you aren't taking the time to research it yourself with the information provided. You keep plugging the TT into the mixer and then this "B-side mixer, mini jack" what's that?? The TT go direct to your laptop, then the output from laptop to the mixer. That simple. If your getting annoyed with the wiring I can only imagine your other issues in the future.
Oh, and your slips of info don't land credibility to your problem. What about "and dont want it to be a waste of money" in your earlier post? I mean if you have bought VDJ and the TCVs then the money has been spent, now it's just wasting of TIME by beating around the bush.
PLEASE make the purchase....

I cant get my serial number as the pc it's on is being repaired, i already stated that.
Can someone please tell me what leads i need to buy as i dont have a clue which leads are needed to be plugged into the laptop and then which are meant to then go out the laptop to my mixer, im guessing
deck goes into the laptop's line in with a adapter because there red and white leads.
Mini jack goes into decks headphone port and the red and white parts of the end of that lead goes into where i would normally plug in my deck on my mixer?
please help me with this its driving me insane

DeeJayBenji,
First determine what you would like to do: Would you play tcv only or do you also need to play normal vinyls.
First option (tcv only):
You need a soundcard that supports Asio drivers and 4 mono (= 2 stereo inputs), like a Maya Usb card. It will not work to use the microphone input, while this is mono like written before.
Then you attach your turntable directly to your soundcard. If your soundcard have jack connectors for the input, you will need adaptor cables from phono female -> jack
The output of your soundcard is attached to your mixer input (line)
Second option (tcv + normal vinyl)
You need a soundcard that supports Asio drivers and 4 mono (= 2 stereo inputs), like a Maya Usb card. It will not work to use the microphone input, while this is mono like written before. You need two splitter cables (also called Y cables). The single point is connected to your turntable, the other two ends are connected to your mixer (phono input) and the other is connected to your soundcard.
If your soundcard have jack connectors for the input, you will need adaptor cables from phono female -> jack
The output of your soundcard is attached to your mixer input (line)
Please also see the setup guide with a nice diagram how to connect everything.

I just want to play the vinyl with the mp3 on it through my mixer.
My sound card is a Realtek RC97 Sound card
i have 3 inputs on it all which connect through jack's, them being headphones, line in and microphone.
is it possible to use this setup or do i have to buy this sound card which is being mentioned?
i no i have to plug my deck into the line in, but where does the output lead going into the mixer need to be put in, the headphone port?
