Hi everyone!
I've got a hercules 4-MX and I'd like to map my mic volume knob to a fx parameter (a filter that I downloaded on this website...).
I never use my mic volume so it'd be cool to use the knob just like on a djm800, go from a hi-pass filter to a low-pass filter ;)
I found the "mic volume" parameter on the mapping section of the software but when I move the fader of the fx with my mouse for the "action", it does nothing.
I know you guys are the best, you know how to do it! I know how to DJ, but I'm terrible when it comes to mapping haha.
Have a nice day!

.Hey, to map it you would use: "effect 'effect_name' slider #", not sure what effect your using, I dont use any of the vdj ones, I use a vst,
because you are using a lp/hp sweep, I suggest adding this
param_equal 50% ? effect 'filter_name' active off : effect 'filter_name' active on & effect 'filter_name' slider 1
just make sure you change the bold parts, to match the effect name and slider number. If you have another resonance slider that you want to set at a paticular percentage you can add that to the end of the script
param_equal 50% ? effect 'filter_name' active off : effect 'filter_name' active on & effect 'filter_name' slider 1 & effect 'filter_name' slider 2 70%

Thank you very much man! It works just fine! Is there a way to figure this out by myself? Like a database with all the expressions and everything?

Yes, there is a whole section dedicated to it on the Wiki page - Please http://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/VDJscript.html and http://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/VDJscript_verbs.html
NOTE: To use custom mappings outside of the 20 day trial of Pro, you will need to purchase the full VirtualDJ Professional. VirtualDJ LE does not support custom mapping. Your 4-Mx DJ Console entitles you to a significant discount off the cost of upgrading: http://www.virtualdj.com/buy/index.html

It seems like it's not possible to do this with the 4-MX :/ It works fine with the DJ 4 set though

Mic volume on the 4-Mx is a hardware volume control and doesn't send MIDI.
It can't be mapped.
