Nice little setup right there.
 
So the Numark NS7II got the touch capacitive capabilities from Akai?
 
Numark and AKAI are both under the same parent company; inMusic.
 
I want that AFX badly for my TCV set up! I hope a mapping comes out for VDJ soon. $200 is not a bad price at all for it. I'm sure within a few months, the price will drop too, and you could probably get it for around $150. Excellent price for an FX unit!
 
these do look very cool! cant wait to try em at store!
 
can I use my AKAI AMX with my virtual dj or numark cue 7? I am not happy with serato cause all the beatgrids and love numark cue. Any help will be great and thank you.
 
AMX and AFX support will come very soon. However, not for VirtualDj 7
 
I hope, that developers of VDJ can help me for mapping that toy to VDJ 7. Sorry, but VDJ8 is not ready to work yet.
I almost ended my mapping, anybody can dl it at kayjay.info/files/amx.zip, but it's not good to live without leds.
If I can't map my AMX to VDJ, probably i would follow the advice of AKAI stuff and switch to Serato.
 
All my problems with VDJ 8 because the old skin. VDJ 8 is awesome.
 
theyre working on maps as we speak. i ordered this unit as well.
 
Anyone has issues with the AKAI AMX sound card on Windows ? In our test computers, if the AKAI driver is installed, VirtualDJ (7 or 8) cant close properly (freezes), regardless if the sound card of the AMX is selected in the AUdio configuration or not. Its OK if you unplug the unit prior closing. Anyone has experienced this ?
 
Yes Mpampi i have this exactly issue in my boocamp partition with VirtualDJ 8.
In the same partition Serato DJ and Akai AMX haven't any issue.
 
Ok, we found a workaround and the AMX sound card can be used properly now. The unit (along with the AFX) will be officially supported by the end of the week.
 
wow thats great news! cant wait!!!! Big thanks to Atomix!!!!
 
 
Its not right for you to pay for VDJ 7 but in order to get Akai Amx working fully you have to spend more money to get 8 I wonder how many switch to Serato over issues like this. Is there anyone making a mapper for this led included
 
I'm sorry but what you just said is ...........let's just say totally incorrect. Please read my next statement very carefully, so there is no misunderstanding. If you have to, read it again. If anyone paid for version 7 of Virtual DJ, they automatically get version 8 free of charge. I hope that clears that up for you. As for how many have switched to another software or not, is totally irrelevant to me, and I don't know how it would affect you either. If you wish to complain about anything, please use facts, thank you.
 
Hi, I'm looking to get one akai amx, has a backup/portable mixer adding a technics sl-dz mk2 for scratching.
I see that it has problems in serato dj, touch eqs cutting sound and channels left/right getting cut off...
does the mixer perform good on vdj8?
thank you
